📢 According to Odaily Planet Daily, the criminal trial of Alex Mashinsky, former CEO of Celsius, will be held on September 17, 2024. Mashinsky was arrested in July this year, and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sued Celsius and Mashinsky, accusing them of raising billions of dollars through fraud and unregistered sales of "crypto securities". They also repeatedly lied to investors about Celsius's financial situation and manipulated the price of Celsius' native token CEL. 😱
In addition, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) also filed fraud charges against Mashinsky and Celsius. Celsius Chief Revenue Officer Roni Cohen-Pavon was also criminally charged. It is reported that he pleaded guilty last month and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in the Mashinsky case. 🔍
While the outlook for the Bitcoin market remains promising, this case reminds us to be cautious when investing in cryptocurrencies and keep a close eye on industry trends and global regulatory dynamics. 🔮
