Өкүл Торрес АКШнын ГАОсунан SECтин элди FTXден коргой албаганын иликтөөнү суранды

An American legislator has asked the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) to look into the performance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding the recently failed crypto exchange FTX. 

Rep. Ritchie Torres wrote to U.S. Comptroller General Gene Dodaro on Dec. 6 requesting that the GAO, the federal legislative watchdog, conduct a review of the SEC’s failure to protect the public from “the egregious mismanagement and malfeasance of FTX.” The strongly worded letter also criticized chairman Gary Gensler’s leadership in general. Torres wrote:

"Эгер SEC FTXтин каржылык абалын кылдат иликтеп, кылдаттык менен текшерген болсо, криптовалюта чындыгында эмне экенин ачыкка чыгаруу ыктымалдыгы жогору болмок: монополиялык акчага салынган машинелердин үйү. ичке аба».

Aside from that passage, Torres’ letter was almost completely devoted to a critique of SEC chair Gensler, who “by the logic of his own public pronouncements, is singularly responsible for regulatory failures surrounding the collapse of FTX and its affiliate FX US.” Addressing Gensler’s insistence that the majority of cryptocurrencies are securities and therefore subject to SEC regulation, Torres asked rhetorically:

“If the SEC has the authority [as] Mr. Gensler claims, why did he fail to uncover the largest crypto Ponzi scheme in US history?”

Torres, like Gensler, is a Democrat, and he represents the South Bronx in New York City. He is a vocal proponent of cryptocurrency. Ironically, he кошулган a bipartisan letter headed up by Rep. Tom Emmer questioning the SEC’s authority to seek information from crypto companies in March. Emmer has also questioned Gensler’s oversight in the wake of the FTX collapse.
