Though the notice outlines what constitutes cryptocurrency activities, it does not detail how FINRA would use these disclosures nor does its website show any explanation. Since the self-regulatory body focuses on protecting retail investors in all financial markets, it can be assumed that the disclosures would help in this goal.
