Nexo Stages US Comeback After $45M SEC Settlement—Because Nothing Says ’Reformed’ Like a Two-Year Cooling-Off Period
Crypto lending platform Nexo is creeping back onto US soil—two years after cutting a $45 million check to the SEC for operating an unregistered securities circus. The ’strategic retreat’ now looks more like a Vegas-style comeback tour.
Regulatory whack-a-mole: The settlement dust hasn’t even settled, but Nexo’s already spinning up new ’compliant’ products. Because in crypto, compliance is just a temporary obstacle between ICOs and investor FOMO.
Wall Street’s worst-kept secret: The SEC’s ’education-first’ approach to enforcement means fines are just the cost of doing business. Nexo’s return proves crypto’s playbook remains unchanged—settle, rebrand, repeat.
