The United States Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) and related agencies have recently intensified their efforts in cracking down on crypto projects. Consequently, the aggressive enforcement action has the potential to sway ນັກລົງທຶນ preference when getting involved in crypto.
In this line, professional investors at 56% are more likely to venture into cryptocurrencies with increased legal action in the digital asset space, while 44% are likely to stay back, the Bloomberg MLIV Pulse survey published on October 24 ສະແດງໃຫ້ເຫັນວ່າ.
Elsewhere, retail investors at 65% are also open to getting involved in the sector amid an increased crackdown as per the survey conducted between October 17 and October 21, targeting 564 respondents.

Furthermore, the U.S. is currently working on several crypto regulation pieces stemming from President Joe Biden’s Order Executive that resulted in the release of the ກອບ crypto ຂອງ ທຳ ນຽບຂາວ.
