U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler today wished Bitcoin a happy birthday by using Halloween to poke fun at the cryptocurrency’s creator.

In a Tuesday Twitter post, the top regulator also told crypto companies to comply with securities laws.

Fifteen years ago, the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto published the Bitcoin white paper, Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. The paper, released online on October 31, 2008, penned a plan for anyone to make payments “without going through a financial institution.”

Gensler wrote: “If Satoshi Nakamoto went as Satoshi Nakamoto for Halloween, would we be able to tell?”

He added: “Happy 15th anniversary to Satoshi’s famous white paper that started crypto. Any crypto companies that are tricking investors should start treating them to compliance with the securities laws.”
