A probe into whether cryptocurrency exchanges are doing enough to prevent insider trading has been begun by the US securities market watchdog.

Following the collapse of the Terra LUNA token, in which investors lost almost $40 billion when its peg to the US dollar was broken, the SEC decided to look into cryptocurrency exchanges.
