Its CEO and founder Sam Bankman-Fried is under fire as regulators begin to piece together what brought the firm down. Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers speculated this could be another potential "Enron" situation. 

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, in an interview with Bloomberg, said the collapse signals the need for cryptocurrency regulation.
