LONDON, Dec 5 (Reuters) - Enforcement action against crypto firms may have peaked after last month's $4.3 billion settlement with Binance, Shortcuts as such cases provide companies with a "template" for how they should be governed, a senior U.S. regulator said on Tuesday.

Binance's settlement with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and Treasury Department, negotiated by the Justice Department, was for breaking U.S. anti-money laundering and sanctions laws.

U.S. regulators have brought several cases against crypto firms such as Binance, helping to establish "guardrails" to bring "order and structure" to the market, CFTC Commissioner Kristin Johnson told an FT crypto and digital assets summit.

"My hope would be that we have seen a spike, and what we will see going forward is that these early cases will really be a bit of cautionary tale for those firms that really do want to successfully operate in this ecosystem," Johnson said.

She urged crypto firms to study the Binance settlement to see what sort of governance regulators look for at crypto firms.

"For those firms that really do want to successfully operate in this space, there is an increasingly clear template for how to operate. Take the hint," Johnson said.

The CFTC will also be "deeply thoughtful" on requiring better disclosures at crypto firms that are vertically integrated, combining different activities under one roof. (Reporting by Huw Jones Editing by Mark Potter)
