The proposal received a mere 27,774,65 affirmative ballots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is intriguing that Henry, a <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/layer-secures-6m-to-solve-limitations-of-smart-contracts.html\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"95812\">smart contracts developer<\/a>, disclosed in an X post that the proposal was cruising to success with more than 100 million ballots in favor. Nevertheless, electors withdrew 80 million of the notes five hours before the end of the voting period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crypto Com's decision to file a lawsuit against the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) coincides with this development. The exchange stated that the lawsuit was in response to the Wells Notice it received from the Commission, which alleged that it had violated securities laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, whether the DAO's decision to vote against the proposal was influenced by the Crypto Com's decision to fight back against the SEC is questionable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crypto Settlements by US Regulators<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to their enforcement actions, the US SEC and other US regulators have reached numerous settlements with crypto firms. Crypto companies have reached settlements with these US regulators totaling $32 billion, according to a CoinGecko report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The greatest settlement with the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is the $12.70 billion agreement between FTX and Alameda. These defunct crypto firms' customers and fraud victims consented to repaying this quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the interim, the second largest crypto settlement is the $4.7 billion sanction the US SEC imposed on the bankrupt crypto lender Celsius. Immediately following this, Terraform Labs reached a civil settlement with the SEC for $4.3 billion earlier this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">US SEC<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><g id=\"wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\" fill=\"none\" clip-path=\"url(#clip0_31_188)\">\r\n                            <path d=\"M9.16724 14.8891L20.1672 3.88908\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\r\n                            <path d=\"M13.4497 3.53554L20.5208 3.53554L20.5208 10.6066\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\r\n                            <path d=\"M17.5 13.5L17.5 16.26C17.5 17.4179 17.5 17.9968 17.2675 18.4359C17.0799 18.7902 16.7902 19.0799 16.4359 19.2675C15.9968 19.5 15.4179 19.5 14.26 19.5L7.74 19.5C6.58213 19.5 6.0032 19.5 5.56414 19.2675C5.20983 19.0799 4.92007 18.7902 4.73247 18.4359C4.5 17.9968 4.5 17.4179 4.5 16.26L4.5 9.74C4.5 8.58213 4.5 8.0032 4.73247 7.56414C4.92007 7.20983 5.20982 6.92007 5.56414 6.73247C6.0032 6.5 6.58213 6.5 7.74 6.5L11 6.5\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\r\n                        <\/g>\r\n                        <defs>\r\n                            <clipPath id=\"clip0_31_188\">\r\n                                <rect fill=\"white\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\"\/>\r\n                            <\/clipPath>\r\n                        <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> and other regulators have registered $19 billion in top crypto settlements, according to CoinGecko.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-29.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-95963\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-29.png 720w, https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-29-240x300.png 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Coingecko<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mango DAO has declined the proposal to pay $700,000 to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as part of Mango Market&#8217;s settlement with the Commission for unregistered token sales.
