It's kinda semantic, but I'm pretty sure the crime of Insider trading (at least in the USA) concerns the stock and bond markets, not (crypto)currency markets. Safemoon isn't a publicly traded company like AAPL or AMZN. Insider trading is typically when someone makes a trade based on "non-public information". Anyone that possibly has that information can still make trades, it just has to be disclosed far in advance to the feds and made public. That's how we know about those big trades that politicians and CEO's make.
It gets really confusing because all these assets are on graphs that look the same, but bonds, commodities, equities, derivatives, currencies blah blah blah have totally different rules and regulations. it's confusing af, apologies if I got something wrong
