 According to CoinGecko, nearly $85 billion worth of crypto falls under the category of “alleged SEC securities.”

 CoinGecko launched a new index tracking the biggest crypto tokens viewed as likely securities by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).&nbsp; 
 The ‘Top Alleged Securities Coins’ page sorts the selection of <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="crypto" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/crypto.html">crypto</a> assets by market capitalization, placing Binance Coin (BNB) at the top of the list — followed by Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL) and TRON (TRX).

 A CoinGecko spokesperson told Cointelegraph that the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="index" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/index.html">index</a> was launched in the first week of August and was constructed by compiling a selection of the most notable <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="tokens" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/tokens.html">tokens</a> which had been deemed <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="securities" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/securities.html">securities</a> by the SEC in past lawsuits. 
 In its most recent lawsuits against crypto exchange giants Coinbase and Binance, the financial regulator brought the number of tokens it views as securities up a grand total of 68 — while CoinGecko only lists 24. 
 According to CoinGecko’s page, the top <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="tokens" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/tokens.html">tokens</a> included in the SEC’s litigated remit of the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="crypto" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/crypto.html">crypto</a> space cover at least $84.9 billion of the entire market, approximately 7.5% of the $1.21 trillion total <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="crypto" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/crypto.html">crypto</a> market capitalization.

 Meanwhile, SEC Chair Gary Gensler has gone to great lengths to clarify that the overwhelming majority of crypto assets should be considered securities, having previously claimed that “everything other than Bitcoin” is a security, and thus falls under the agency’s remit. 
 If Gensler is correct, it would mean that almost every last one of the approximately 25,500 cryptocurrencies listed on crypto data platform CoinMarketCap would be regulated by the SEC.
