Even if the hacking entity did the pump and dump, then their statement is valid: the SEC’s incaution made this possible.

Since we're all being a bit pedantic here... the SEC would be responsible for negligently allowing a third-party pump to happen-- they would not be responsible for a pump and dump. Pump and dump requires intention (and requires dumping).

Yep, that’s a fine phrasing of it!
