According to the contents of the letter, the SEC asked Musk to accept the settlement agreement within 48 hours and pay the fine, otherwise he would face "multiple accusations". These allegations are related to Musk's stock investment behavior before the acquisition of Twitter (now "X") in 2022, involving trading time and the legality of information disclosure. It was mentioned in the letter that the accusation originated from an investigation that lasted for several years, and the SEC recently issued a subpoena to Musk's lawyer, asking him to provide testimony. Alex spiro said that he had explicitly refused to cooperate and accused the agency of "political motives".
