The head of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Gary Gensler, has previously repeatedly stated the need to regulate relations in the cryptocurrency industry. According to him, special attention should be paid to monitoring the situation in the market for decentralized financing DeFi.
At the end of last week, it became known about the SEC's plans to launch a special service with which it will be possible to monitor transactions in the DeFi ecosystem.
The analytical company AnChain will create the corresponding software. The regulator and developers signed a partnership agreement. The latter will receive $ 125,000 from the American authorities for their work.
