The post SEC Suspends QMMM Trading After 1,000% Stock Surge on Crypto Plans appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Crypto treasury firms have been on the rise lately, attracting both investor attention as well as regulatory scrutiny. While adoption may be growing, not every rally is being welcomed. The SEC has been cracking down on companies experiencing sudden stock surges, especially around crypto announcements. QMMM Holdings Ltd, a digital advertising and marketing production service company, is the latest to face a trading halt after its shares shot up dramatically. QMMM Trading Halted According to a report from Bloomberg, the U.S. SEC has suspended trading in QMMM after the stock shot up nearly 1,000% in less than three weeks.

The announcement sent shares skyrocketing from $11 to over $200. The company had also outlined its strategic shift into the crypto space, using blockchain and artificial intelligence. While the move highlighted its push into digital assets, the suspension is a reminder that regulators are on alert for hype-driven rallies that lack strong fundamentals. The Wider “Hype” Crackdown QMM is not the only case. The SEC and FINRA have been tightening oversight of companies that make sudden pivots into crypto.
