Nexo CEO Antoni Trenchev told Decrypt in a text message that the company has been working with federal and state securities regulators to make its Earn Interest products compliant. Nexo is committed to finding a clear path forward for the regulated provision of products and services in the US, ideally on a federal level,” said Trenchev.
