kraken exchange is recent to be targeted by SEC due to improper registration as business.
The SEC has filed a lawsuit against Kraken, a San Francisco-based crypto exchange, alleging that the platform violated federal securities laws by commingling customer and corporate funds, resulting in a significant risk, and citing multiple enforcement actions against other crypto trading platforms.
The SEC has filed a lawsuit against Kraken, alleging it holds over $5 billion worth of customers' cash and commingles it with its own. The suit also claims Kraken operates an unregistered broker, clearinghouse, and exchange, similar to previous complaints against Binance and Coinbase. Kraken is also listed as promoting unregistered securities like ALGO and MATIC.
SEC seeks to permanently ban Kraken from operating as an unregistered exchange, pursuing a fine and demanding Kraken to return ill-gotten gains.
On the other hand the CEO of Kraken David Ripley completely denies all allegations.
