Community Rips SEC’s New Crypto Risk Warning Amid TradFi Crisis
- Crypto maximalists attack the SEC for partiality in regulating the crypto industry.
- Analyst Ben Armstrong sarcastically says, “Crypto is bad, but the Ponzi scheme banking system is good.”
- Other Twitter users question the SEC why gambling is acceptable but not crypto.

Crypto enthusiasts voiced their reservations to the regulator following a warning message where the SEC claimed that crypto assets constitute a risky investment venture. “Investments in crypto asset securities can be exceptionally volatile and speculative,” the regulator wrote in a post on Thursday.
The SEC further argued that the platforms where investors buy, sell, borrow, or lend crypto might lack essential protections.
