Methodology
AI-generated synthesis from web search results.
Limitations

Based on the search results provided, I can identify one significant cryptocurrency enforcement action in the Bahamas over the past three years:
FTX Bankruptcy and SEC Enforcement (November 2022)
- Regulator: Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
- Entity Targeted: FTX Trading Ltd. and Samuel Bankman-Fried (CEO and co-founder)
- Violation Type: Securities fraud scheme defrauding equity investors
- Penalty Amount: Not specified in available results
- Date: November 2022
- Outcome: FTX filed for bankruptcy after a spike in customer withdrawals exposed an $8 billion shortfall in accounts[3]. The SEC charged Bankman-Fried with orchestrating a scheme that defrauded equity investors; FTX had raised more than $1.8 billion from investors, including approximately $1.1 billion from about 90 U.S.-based investors[1]. The Securities Commission of the Bahamas subsequently froze assets of one of FTX's subsidiaries[3].
Limitation: The search results do not contain comprehensive information about other significant cryptocurrency enforcement actions specifically in the Bahamas during this period, nor do they provide direct source URLs as requested. To obtain a complete list of enforcement actions by Bahamian regulators over the last three years with specific penalty amounts and detailed outcomes, you would need access to official filings from the Securities Commission of the Bahamas or additional regulatory databases.
