CFTC Awards $15 Million to Crypto Whistleblowers, Pushing 2022 Total to $16 Million

Two whistleblowers received $15 million for crypto tips leading to CFTC enforcement cases.

CFTC paid $16 million to whistleblowers in 2022, mostly for crypto-related tips.

Crypto tips helped CFTC identify fraud and save resources, says Commissioner Romero.

CFTC has awarded nearly $350 million to whistleblowers since 2014.

Managing crypto risks is crucial for market integrity, says Romero.
