Exploring the frontier of crypto market abuse

Market manipulation is one of the crypto industry's biggest unresolved investor protection problems. With relative impunity, bad actors in the digital asset space continue to engage in abusive behaviors like:

  • Wash trading cryptocurrencies to manufacture artificial prices and volumes;
  • And systematically touting or bashing tokens on social media while executing trades in the opposite direction.
