Alt5 Sigma, a Nasdaq-listed firm tied to Donald Trump’s $1.5 billion crypto initiative, is under fire following reports of a potential SEC investigation. The probe allegedly centers on inflated earnings and suspicious insider share sales by company president Jon Isaac during a price surge—a scenario often signaling market manipulation. No formal SEC action has been confirmed.

Alt5 Sigma swiftly refuted the claims, denying Isaac’s executive role and any awareness of regulatory inquiries. The controversy highlights the heightened scrutiny facing crypto ventures as they intersect with traditional finance. Market reactions were immediate, with ALTS shares plunging amid the uncertainty.
