Elon Musk faces fresh legal trouble as the SEC alleges he violated U.S. securities laws by failing to disclose his early 2022 Twitter stock purchases on time. By delaying the disclosure, Musk reportedly saved $150 million in additional costs. There is also an opinion in the market that the SEC's action is politically motivated, as Musk is known to be a close confidant and supporter of incoming President Donald Trump.
As reported by FinTelegram, the U.S. authorities have taken massive action against Josip Heit and his crypto MLM scheme around GSPartners and Swiss Valorem Bank in recent weeks.
