Sam Bankman-Fried Faces Serious Consequences for Alleged Crimes

• Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) has been accused of committing wire fraud, money laundering, and consumer cash abuse.
• Attorney John E. Deaton believes that SBF’s decision to plead not guilty will only make matters worse for him.
• SBF’s trial date is still pending, but evidence and witnesses suggest that the judicial system will hold him accountable for his alleged crimes.

Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) is a disgraced public figure currently facing charges of conspiracy to conduct wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and conspiracy to abuse consumer cash. The rumors of his guilt circulated prior to the confirmation of the news, and recently, Crypto Attorney John E. Deaton spoke out on the matter during a FOX Business interview on January 3.

Deaton stated that SBF is „toast,“ implying that he will face severe consequences for his alleged wrongdoing, which SBF has denied. He pointed out that SBF has lived extravagantly since his extradition from the Bahamas, and that his decision to plead not guilty had only made matters worse for him. He trusts that the judicial system will continue to investigate and hold SBF accountable for his crimes, as his allies Caroline Ellison and Gary Wang have already testified to the claims against them and there is evidence to support them.

The investigation into SBF’s alleged crimes has been ongoing for months, and the trial date is still pending. However, the evidence and witnesses suggest that the judicial system will hold him accountable for his alleged crimes. This includes the testimonies of witnesses, documents, emails, and other digital evidence that could be used against him in court.

The case against SBF is being led by the U.S. Department of Justice, and they have been working hard to ensure that justice is served. If found guilty, SBF may face serious consequences, including fines and/or jail time. However, until the trial begins and the verdict is reached, it is still too early to tell what the outcome of the case will be.

Regardless of the outcome, this case serves as a reminder to those in the cryptocurrency space that the law should never be taken lightly. Those who break the law will be held accountable, and it is important to remember that there are serious consequences for those who do not abide by the law.

Former CFO Charged with $5 Million Crypto Fraud Scheme

-The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently charged former Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of African Gold Acquisition Corp, Cooper J. Morgenthau, for setting up a $5 million fraud scheme.
-The SEC alleges that Morgenthau hid his involvement in a fraudulent scheme to embezzle the company’s funds and invest them in cryptocurrencies in order to capitalize on the volatility of crypto markets and increase his wealth.
-Morgenthau is charged with violating several federal securities laws, including fraud, lying to accountants and auditors, and making false filings with the SEC.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently charged a former Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of African Gold Acquisition Corp, Cooper J. Morgenthau, with spearheading a $5 million fraud scheme. According to the SEC, Morgenthau is accused of hiding his involvement in a fraudulent scheme to embezzle the company’s funds and invest them in cryptocurrencies in order to capitalize on the volatility of crypto markets and increase his wealth.

Morgenthau allegedly used false documents to conceal the movement of funds from African Gold Acquisition Corp’s accounts. To facilitate his scheme, he is charged with violating several federal securities laws, including fraud, lying to accountants and auditors, and making false filings with the SEC. The SEC believes that he was attempting to use the embezzled funds to speculate on the cryptocurrency markets and increase his personal wealth.

The SEC has charged Morgenthau with violating several laws, including fraud, making false statements to accountants and auditors, and making false filings with the SEC. If found guilty, Morgenthau could face civil penalties including forfeiture of the proceeds from his scheme and disgorgement of his ill-gotten gains, as well as criminal charges.

The SEC’s Division of Enforcement has also taken action against African Gold Acquisition Corp, alleging that the company had failed to maintain adequate internal controls and had not disclosed the fraudulent activity. The SEC is seeking a permanent injunction, penalties, and other remedies against the company.

The SEC’s case against Morgenthau and African Gold Acquisition Corp serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining effective internal controls and complying with all applicable federal securities laws. Companies should adhere to best practices and ensure that their financial statements are accurate and their internal controls are adequate. Failure to do so may have serious consequences and could result in civil or criminal penalties.

Bitcoin Investor Einführung

Über Bitcoin Investor

Bitcoin Investor ist eine in Hongkong ansässige Handelsplattform, die fortschrittliche Dienstleistungen für Kryptowährungshändler anbietet. Das Unternehmen hinter Bitcoin Investor ist iFinex Inc, eine auf der britischen Jungferninsel registrierte Gesellschaft mit Hauptsitz in Hongkong.

Die Börse wurde im Jahr 2012 von Raphael Nicolle gegründet. Nicolle begann seine Karriere als IT-Spezialist in Paris, wo er in den Bitcoin-Handel einstieg. Er erkannte bald die Möglichkeiten, die der sich entwickelnde Kryptowährungsmarkt bot, und beschloss, Bitcoin Investor als Ein-Mann-Unternehmen zu gründen, das Bitcoin-Handel und Kreditoptionen anbietet. Er war der CTO und leitende Entwickler der Plattform bis 2015, als er seine Rolle an Paolo Ardoino übergab, der diese Position auch heute noch innehat. Der CEO von Bitcoin Investor ist Jean-Louis van der Velde, der über 30 Jahre Erfahrung in der Tech-Branche hat. Der ursprünglich aus den Niederlanden stammende Jean-Louis ist nach Asien gewechselt und leitet die Börse seit Anfang 2013 von Hongkong aus. Jean Louis ist auch der CEO von Tether.

Bitcoin Investor Senior Team

Ursprünglich begann Bitcoin Investor sein Geschäft im Jahr 2012 als Peer-to-Peer-Plattform für den Austausch von Kryptowährungen mit dem Angebot von P2P-Margin-Krediten für Händler von Bitcoin und anderen Altcoins. Später wechselten sie zu einer zentralisierten Handelsmaschine. Bitcoin Investor ist auch mit der Kryptowährung Tether verbunden, einer der ersten und beliebtesten Stablecoins, die an den US-Dollar gekoppelt sind.

Tether und Bitcoin Investor haben gemeinsame Aktionäre und ein gemeinsames Management. Tether ist konstruktionsbedingt auf einen Wert von 1 USD festgelegt und hält für jeden ausgegebenen Tether-Münzen einen entsprechenden Betrag an Reserven. Seit 2018 tauchen von Zeit zu Zeit Gerüchte über das Fehlen ausreichender Reserven und mögliche Marktmanipulationen des Bitcoin-Preises im Zusammenhang mit der Ausgabe von Tether-Münzen auf. Bislang haben Prüfungen die rechtliche Grundlage der Geschäftstätigkeit des Unternehmens bestätigt.

Ursprünglich war das Unternehmen vor allem auf den US-Markt ausgerichtet, bietet aber seit August 2018 aufgrund des sich ändernden regulatorischen Umfelds keine Dienstleistungen mehr für US-Kunden an. Die Beschränkungen gelten nur für US-Einwohner, die Nutzung der Plattform aus den Vereinigten Staaten ist jedoch weiterhin erlaubt.

Het Ether Fund van 3iQ begint met $ CAD-handel op TSX na de mijlpaal van $ 1 miljard van Bitcoin Fund

De Canadese investeringsfondsbeheerder 3iQ is vandaag in het nieuws nadat het aankondigde dat zijn op Ether gebaseerde fonds, The Ether Fund (TSX: QETH.UN), nu in Canadese dollars genoteerd staat aan de Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).

De ontwikkeling in kwestie komt doordat The Ether Fund een overweldigende vraag van investeerders ontving na de succesvolle beursgang van het fonds op de Toronto Stock Exchange.

Het werd verwelkomd door Fred Pye, voorzitter van 3iQ, die zei:

„Ten slotte hebben Canadese investeerders de mogelijkheid om The Ether Fund te verhandelen in hun eigen valuta en via hun lokaal gedomineerde rekeningen.“

Volgens een rapport van 3iQ maakt het fonds een allocatie van 99,9% naar de digitale activa en slechts 0,01% naar de USD, waardoor beleggers een aanzienlijke blootstelling aan ETH krijgen.

De meeste beleggers zien dit fonds als een geschikt alternatief voor directe investeringen in ETH, aangezien hun vermogensgroei op lange termijn kan worden gerealiseerd via in Canada geregistreerde rekeningen RRSP en RRIF.

Dit soort gereguleerde blootstelling aan een ander type activaklasse op een grote effectenbeurs biedt financiële adviseurs en instellingen een manier om allocaties te doen naar cryptocurrencies

Ethereum [ETH] is ’s werelds op een na grootste cryptocurrency qua marktkapitalisatie, met een altcoin die op het moment van schrijven rond de $ 1.200 handelde. Hoewel ETH nog steeds een beetje verwijderd was van het overtreden van zijn ATH van $ 1.448, suggereerden on-chain-statistieken dat de altcoin binnenkort onderweg kan zijn.

De prijsvoorspellingen op de lange termijn voor het digitale activum waren zelfs extreem optimistisch, waarbij Global Macro-investeerder Raoul Pal een van degenen was die dergelijke voorspellingen deed. Volgens Pal zou ETH op basis van de wet van Metcalfe een nieuw record kunnen bereiken, dichtbij de $ 20.000.

Er moet ook worden opgemerkt dat 3iQ de eerste investeringsmanager was die werd goedgekeurd door de Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) om op te treden als een IFM / PM van meerdere crypto-activa in Canada.

In gerelateerd nieuws, gisteren, 3iQs Bitcoin Fund gekruist $ 1 miljard dollar aan activa onder beheer (AUM).

Rally mode: bitcoin back on track

While Bitcoin network activity is on a record chase, the overall crypto market is witnessing rising capital inflows that are pushing the cryptocurrency back towards $40,000.

Only briefly lasted the respite that the bulls took after the efforts of the last few weeks. With a 24-hour plus of over 9 percent, the bitcoin price seamlessly resumed where it had stopped at the beginning of the week. At press time, the digital currency is trading at $38,379, putting it back in position for an assault on the $40,000 mark.

Bitcoin price in the weekly chart

While the Bitcoin Profit is struggling to bottom above the symbolic key mark, almost the entire crypto market starts the trading day under good omens. On a daily basis, the top 10 coins are gaining in value, in some cases significantly, with the DeFi coins Polkadot (DOT) and Chainlink (LINK) leading the way with double-digit price gains.

With a strong 69 percent dominance over the altcoins, crypto bandwagon Bitcoin is gradually leading the overall market back toward all-time highs. Overnight, total market capitalization has once again passed the US$1 trillion mark in Bitcoin’s wake, falling just US$10 billion short of the preliminary peak.

Bitcoin network activity

However, indicators at the network level also show a continued growth trend. While total market capitalization is only a few meters away from an all-time high, on-chain activity has already set a new record high with around 1,343,000 BTC addresses actively in use as of January 6. With over 1,100,000 addresses sending or receiving transactions, the figure remains at peak levels and underscores exceedingly brisk trading activity on the Bitcoin Blockchain.

76.4% of retail investor accounts lose money trading CFDs with this provider [advertisement].

Here, the figure is fed by an increase in both new and wealthy wallets. As the chart below from Glassnode shows, the number of newly registered BTC addresses, which has been rising consistently in recent months, continues to catch up toward an all-time high. Even though the value can be driven up by multiple addresses managed by individuals, the metric reveals a rising demand among new investors for Bitcoin.

New Bitcoin addresses

Meanwhile, the Whale population is also rising sharply. With over 2,400 of the Bitcoin whale genus, the number of investors holding 1,000 or more Bitcoin is also at record levels. The chart shows that the entry of institutional investors into the market correlates strongly with the Bitcoin price fireworks of recent months. No wonder, after all, they are accumulating considerable amounts of BTC and thus steadily tightening the bitcoin supply in circulation.
Bitcoin whales

Putting the pieces of the puzzle together, an exceedingly bullish picture emerges for the coming weeks. Consistent increases among both new and large investors form the basis for a lasting Bitcoin rally.

Diginex to raise $38m to develop crypto derivatives ecosystem

Hong Kong-based blockchain company Diginex will raise $38.6 million through the sale of 2.57 million shares to develop its cryptocurrency product line, according to a press release.
Diginex has entered into a definitive agreement with a number of institutional investors for their participation in the private placement. The company plans to sell 2,571,699 shares and warrants for a similar number of shares at $15 and an exercise price of $18.75 in three years.

If the terms of the offer are met, the deal will close on 13 January.

In January, cryptocurrency exchange EQUOS, operated by Diginex, added a perpetual bitcoin contract to its listing.

The EQUOS ecosystem includes a regulated asset manager, cold and combined custodial solutions, capital markets and securitisation advisory services, and a trading platform.

As a reminder, at the end of 2020, Diginex became the first cryptocurrency exchange operator to have its shares added to the Nasdaq stock exchange listing.

Canaan launches its Bitcoin miner A1066I with liquid cooling

The new Canaan miner is cooled natively by liquid immersion, which promises better performance.

Canaan, one of the first manufacturers of Bitcoin ASIC miners (BTC), launched the Avalon Immersion Cooling Miner A1066I, a device designed to be cooled by liquid.

Unlike traditional air-cooled devices and common types of liquid cooling for computer enthusiasts, the electrical components of the A1066I are immersed in a special dielectric fluid that removes heat directly from the computer plates.

The dielectric fluids are specially designed to insulate the components and prevent corrosion and short circuit damage that would occur with standard water or other types of fluids. They are also different from water block based liquid cooling, where a special heat exchanger isolates the water from the components.

The A1066I is a large containment device that can hold up to 90 immersion-cooled units. Canaan says that each unit produces 50 TH/s for an electrical consumption of 3400 watts, while each tank reaches up to 7200 TH/s and 306 kilowatts of electrical consumption when completely filled.

While Canaan says the A1066I performs better than its top-of-the-line air-cooled A1246, the latter has 90 TH/s of mining power and consumes the same amount of energy, making it more efficient on paper. Cointelegraph requested clarification on the figures but did not receive an immediate response.

However, the native liquid cooling feature may make the device more attractive to certain classes of miners, especially those operating in warmer regions. The more efficient cooling method also allows for more aggressive overclocking, potentially allowing for higher hash performance, although power consumption remains a major constraint when it comes to increasing the hash rate. The cooling method also benefits protection against dust and overheating.

Canaan is one of the original manufacturers of ASIC equipment and the first to launch a successful initial public offering on NASDAQ. Its performance has been mediocre since then, as claims and statements have surfaced that the company misled investors. Quarterly operating losses also weighed heavily on the share price.

Canaan’s main competitors are Bitmain, which is also having its share of problems, and MicroBT, a rising manufacturer that has steadily gained market share in recent months.

3iQ prepara el lanzamiento de un fondo de éter en la Bolsa de Toronto

  • Un fondo Ether se lanzará en la Bolsa de Toronto el 10 de diciembre.
  • Los inversores institucionales pueden obtener una exposición regulada al Etereo.
  • El fondo ha recaudado hasta ahora aproximadamente 75 millones de dólares.

El gestor de activos digitales canadiense 3iQ, lanzará su fondo Ethereum en la Bolsa de Toronto el 10 de diciembre.

La empresa ya ha lanzado un fondo público BTC en la Bolsa de Valores de Toronto y ahora está ampliando su oferta con el Fondo Ether.

La oferta pública inicial del Fondo Ether

De acuerdo con Tyler Winklevoss, multimillonario de Bitcoin y cofundador de Géminis, una plataforma de intercambio y custodia de cripto-moneda, el fondo Éter de 3iQ ha recaudado aproximadamente 75 millones de dólares antes de la salida a bolsa.

Winklevoss explica que todo el Éter de este fondo será almacenado y protegido por Géminis Custodia, uno de los principales actores institucionales de custodia en el espacio.

A medida que más inversionistas institucionales buscan invertir en criptografía, muchos también requieren los marcos legales y de custodia necesarios para mitigar los riesgos de la caída.

Esos marcos requieren una aprobación reglamentaria para dar garantías a las instituciones y a los grandes inversores de que sus fondos están seguros.

Más interés en el etéreo

El ecosistema de la cripto-moneda sigue madurando, atrayendo regularmente a grandes inversores institucionales. Bitcoin sigue siendo la cripto-moneda dominante con más del 60% de la cuota de mercado. Y esto tiende a ser el primer puerto de escala para los nuevos usuarios.

Considerando que el Etereo tiene un modelo operativo muy diferente al de Bitcoin, el Etereo puede impulsar un interés adicional como una inversión de alto riesgo y alta rentabilidad.

La Cadena de Faro del Ethereum 2.0 fue lanzada a principios de diciembre. Y los datos de ethernodes sugieren que la cadena de balizas de contratos inteligentes es más segura y utilizable que nunca.

La actualización cambió la forma en que se procesarán las transacciones del Ethereum, pasando de un modelo de Prueba de Trabajo (PoW) a un modelo de Prueba de Toma (PoS). El Etéreo parece estar ganando más exposición como un activo principal. Y esta última oferta pública inicial sugiere que los inversores se están dando cuenta.

Según Grayscale, el administrador de activos digitales con más de 10.000 millones de dólares en activos criptográficos bajo gestión (AUM), hay muchos inversores crecientes „sólo para el Etéreo“.

Michael Sonnenshein, director general de Grayscale, declaró recientemente:

„A lo largo de 2020, estamos viendo un nuevo grupo de inversores que son primero Ethereum y en algunos casos sólo Ethereum. […] Hay una creciente convicción en torno al Etéreo como una clase de activo“.

Actualmente Grayscale posee aproximadamente 2.000 millones de dólares de éter en nombre de sus inversores, una cifra que probablemente seguirá aumentando.

Chainlink Oracles riceve l’approvazione di Binance Smart Chain, tra le altre cose

La domanda per il feed dei prezzi di Chainlink è aumentata di giorno in giorno, ricevendo sempre più consensi da parte di un numero sempre maggiore di partecipanti al sistema cripto-ecosistema. Prosper è l’ultimo, con il protocollo che annuncia il completamento della sua integrazione mainnet con Bitcoin Trader la rete Oracle del collegamento a catena.

Prosper è attualmente attivo su BSC e sta sfruttando i feed di prezzi denominati BNB per i suoi pool di previsioni iniziali. Ora utilizzerà ulteriori Chainlink Price Feeds per espandere i suoi pool di previsione per includere Ethereum [ETH], Bitcoin [BTC], Tron [TRX], Litecoin [LTC] e Travala [AVA].

Anche Binance Smart Chain ha annunciato ieri il supporto nativo per Chainlink

Questa integrazione era a livello radice, il che significa che gli Oracles non avranno bisogno del supporto per la rete Ethereum, poiché funzioneranno direttamente su BSC. L’annuncio è stato letto,

Gli oracoli Chainlink sono accessibili su Binance Smart Chain senza alcuna dipendenza da Ethereum“.

Ulteriormente, il paradiso fiscale, un protocollo di prestito, inoltre ha annunciato l’integrazione della rete di Oracle su mainnet per assicurare i prezzi per i numerosi cripto-assets usati sulla relativa piattaforma.
