Ether (ETH), the cryptocurrency that powers the smart-contract-enabled Ethereum blockchain, fell under $1,500 and hit its lowest level in nearly a month in the $1460s on Monday.

At current levels in the $1,480s, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization was last trading about 2.0% lower on the day, with losses from earlier monthly highs in the $1,700s now over 13%.

This comes after Kraken came to a settlement with the SEC and shuttered its crypto-staking program, which the SEC had also labeled as an unregistered security.
