Former SEC Director Hinman didn't follow instructions: Made millions!!
The former Director of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) William Hinman had received millions of dollars in retirement benefits from a pro-Ethereum firm during his tenure and breached the directions provided by SEC's ethics office to "avoid conflicts tied to his financial interests in Simpson Thacher, including the firm's connection to the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, or EEA."
SEC director Hinman made millions
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by a whistleblower confirmed that the former Director received retirement benefits from a pro-Ethereum law firm. Hinman was SEC's corporate finance division chief from mid-2017 to late-2020, and during his tenure, he said that the "Ethereum network and its decentralized structure, current offers and sales of Ether are not securities transactions."The information gained by Empower Oversight Whistleblowers & Research confirmed that the law firm Simpson Thatcher & Bartlett, which is a member of Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, a group that supports Ethereum projects, had provided millions to the SEC official.
Empower Oversight founder Jason Foster talked to reporters at Law360 that a full investigation surrounding Hinman's conflicts of interest in the case "could increase transparency and enhance public trust by recommending meaningful improvements to the ethics policies and procedures at the SEC."
Warning
The report further added that the SEC office had continuously warned Hinman to avoid any encounter with the pro-Ethereum law firm. The financial regulator's ethics official Shira Pavis Minton personally warned Hinman in an email and asked the former Director if there was any deal currently going on.However, Empower Oversight confirms that Hinman continued to meet with Simpson Thatcher, not giving heed to the warnings of the ethics officer.
Interestingly, Empower Oversight filed a lawsuit against the SEC, asking them to comply with the FOIA as it is investigating a conflict of interest related to former SEC chairman Jay Clayton and acting enforcement chief Marc Berger.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
