      Celsius’ Top Execs Cashed Out $17M in Crypto Before Bankruptcy
      Ex-CEO Alex Mashinsky and ex-CSO Daniel Leon pulled bitcoin, ether, USDC and CEL holdings from their custody accounts in May, before the company suspended all customer withdrawals.

      Crypto lender Celsius’ top executives withdrew a little over $17 million in cryptocurrency between May and June 2022, right before the company suspended withdrawals and filed for bankruptcy, new court records show.

      According to a Statement of Financial Affairs filed late Wednesday, former CEO Alex Mashinsky and former CSO Daniel Leon withdrew the funds largely from custody accounts in the form of bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), USDC (USDC) and CEL tokens (CEL).

      Over a dozen other executives, including the company’s Chief Compliance Officer, Oren Blonstein, Chief Risk Officer Rodney Sunada-Wong and new CEO Chris Ferraro did not make any significant withdrawals during that time period, according to the document, one of several filed to the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

      Mashinsky withdrew about $10 million in cryptocurrency in May 2022. Leon withdrew about $7 million (and an additional $4 million worth of CEL denoted as “collateral”) between May 27 and May 31.

      Initially, it appeared that current CTO Nuke Goldstein withdrew around $13 million (and an additional $7.8 million worth of CEL denoted “collateral”).

      However, matching transactions through different affiliated entities suggest that in reality, Goldstein moved his holdings to and from different accounts, all maintained with Celsius. The net amount he took out from his personal account is around $550,000, mostly in ETH. A related party of Goldstein, Bits of Sunshine LLC, withdrew a combined $5.7 million in CEL on May 9, 11, 13 and 25 from a custody account. The majority of these funds were likewise deposited into his personal account at Celsius, which he put up as collateral.

      Stablecoin Issuer Tether Ordered to Produce Documents Showing Backing of USDT
      The order relates to a lawsuit that alleges unbacked USDT issuances have caused $1.4 trillion in damage to the market.
      https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2022/09/21/stablecoin-issue…
      ...
      Tether has been ordered by a U.S. judge in New York to produce financial records relating to the backing of USDT as part of a lawsuit that alleges Tether conspired to issue the stablecoin as part of a campaign to inflate the price of bitcoin (BTC).

      • The order requires Tether to produce “general ledgers, balance sheets, income statements, cash-flow statements, and profit and loss statements” as well as records of any trades or transfers of cryptocurrency or other stablecoins by Tether including information about the timing of the trades.

      • It also orders Tether to share details about the accounts it holds at crypto exchanges Bitfinex, Poloniex and Bittrex.

      • While attorneys representing Tether moved to block the order to release, calling it “incredibly overboard” and “unduly burdensome,” the presiding judge disagreed, writing that the “documents Plaintiffs seek are undoubtedly important.”

      • “[The] Plaintiffs plainly explain why they need this information: to assess the backing of USDT with US dollars,” wrote Judge Katherine Polk Failla.

      • “The documents sought in the transactions RFPs appear to go to one of the Plaintiffs' core allegations: that the … Defendants engaged in cyptocommodities transactions using unbacked USDT, and that those transactions "were strategically timed to inflate the market," the judge continued.

      • Tether subsequently issued a statement labelling the order "a routine discovery" that "does not in any way substantiate plaintiffs’ meritless claims."
      • "We had already agreed to produce documents sufficient to establish the reserves backing USDT, and this dispute merely concerned the scope of documents to be produced," Tether said.

      The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority published a warning to consumers about Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto exchange FTX, saying it isn’t authorized by the regulator to offer financial services or products in the country.

      The regulator said on Friday on its website that Bahamas-based FTX “is targeting people in the UK,” adding that investors are “unlikely to get your money back if things go wrong” since they won’t be protected by the country’s ombudsman service and compensation scheme.

      The FCA previously issued a similar warning about Binance, another major global crypto exchange, and its activities in the UK. Dozens of regulators around the world later put out similar statements about Binance.

      FTX and the FCA did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

      Crypto Lending Now Pays Less Than Safest US Government Debt
      https://finance.yahoo.com/news/crypto-lending-now-pays-less-…
      ...
      In a rare reversal, crypto yields that institutions typically seek out have fallen below what the US government pays to borrow for three months, giving the hedge funds and family offices that have flocked to the digital space one less reason to keep investing.

      The Federal Reserve’s hawkish stance is driving up interest rates almost everywhere -- except in the speculative world of crypto, where yields have collapsed alongside volumes, wiping out some of the main avenues for generating double-digit returns, while the implosion of the Terra stablecoin project and the failures of crypto lenders like Celsius Network shook confidence.

      “Two years ago, interest rates in crypto were at least 10% and in the real world rates were either negative or near-zero,” said Jaime Baeza, chief executive officer of ANB Investments, a hedge fund focused on digital assets. “Now it’s almost the reverse, because yields in crypto have collapsed and central banks are raising rates.”

      ..Verhaftung von Tornado-Cash-Entwickler in den Niederlanden löst Protestwelle aus
      https://www.finanzen.net/nachricht/devisen/betrug-und-geldwa…
      ...
      In den Niederlanden wurde am 10. August der Tornado-Cash-Entwickler Alexey Pertsev festgenommen. Ihm wird vorgeworfen, sich an der Verschleierung krimineller Finanzströme und der Erleichterung von Geldwäsche beteiligt zu haben. Seine Inhaftierung löste in der Krypto-Szene große Empörung aus - viele halten die Festnahme für unrechtmäßig.

      • Die niederländische Polizei hat den Tornado-Cash-Entwickler Alexey Pertsev in Amsterdam festgenommen
      • Tornado Cash sollen Kryptowährungen kriminellen Ursprungs im Wert von mindestens einer Milliarde Dollar passiert haben
      • Kritiker sehen sowohl die Inhaftierung von Pertsev als auch das US-amerikanische Verbot von Tornado Cash als unrechtmäßig an

      ...
      Wie die niederländische Behörde FIOD am 12. August in einer öffentlichen Mitteilung bekanntgab, wurde am 10. August ein 29-jähriger Mann in Amsterdam festgenommen. "Er wird verdächtigt, an der Verschleierung krimineller Finanzströme und der Erleichterung der Geldwäsche durch das Mischen von Kryptowährungen über den dezentralen Ethereum-Mischdienst Tornado Cash beteiligt gewesen zu sein", heißt es in der Mitteilung weiter. Bei der inhaftierten Person soll es sich um den Tornado-Cash-Entwickler Alexey Pertsev handeln. Durch den von ihm geschaffenen Code sollen in großem Stil Geldströme aus kriminellen Aktivitäten wie Krypto-Diebstählen und Scams an andere Orte geschleust worden sein. "Dazu gehörten Gelder, die durch Hacks von einer Gruppe gestohlen wurden, von der angenommen wird, dass sie mit Nordkorea in Verbindung steht", erklärt der FIOD.

      Alex Mashinsky took control of Celsius trading strategy months before bankruptcy
      https://www.ft.com/content/43d4fb5d-72a1-468c-aac8-9e11c4693…
      ...
      In the days before the Fed met, Mashinsky personally directed individual trades and overruled executives with decades of finance experience, according to multiple people familiar with the matter.

      In one case, Mashinsky ordered the sale of hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of bitcoin, refusing to wait to double check Celsius’s often unreliable information on its own holdings. Celsius — which at the time held $22bn of customer crypto assets — bought the bitcoin back a day later at a loss.

      “He was ordering the traders to massively trade the book off of bad information,” one of the people said. “He was slugging around huge chunks of bitcoin.”

      Another person familiar with the events said that while Mashinsky may have been making his views known based on his knowledge of crypto markets, they insisted “he was not running the trading desk”.
      ...


      The sale and then buyback of bitcoin Mashinsky ordered came just a day or two before the Fed meeting. One reason he had been pushing for Celsius to sell was linked to the issue with EquitiesFirst in 2021.

      EquitiesFirst owed Celsius bitcoin and Celsius had hedged that exposure by buying bitcoin ahead of repayment. Mashinsky argued that EquitiesFirst might pay back its bitcoin debt faster as prices fell.

      If that happened, Celsius would have more bitcoin than it currently forecast. It usually tried to maintain a neutral position on its crypto holdings to balance assets and liabilities. By selling bitcoin now before prices dropped, Celsius could profit, Mashinsky reasoned.

      “It was not an irrational thought,” another of the people familiar with the events said, but there simply wasn’t evidence EquitiesFirst would repay any faster. “There was a lot of speculation,” they added.

      EquitiesFirst said: “We entered into an agreement well before the January date mentioned. Any alteration to that agreement would have required consensus from all parties.” The company added it would satisfy all its obligations to Celsius.

      Mashinsky’s fears about the market proved to be at least poorly timed. While the Fed confirmed plans to increase rates in March, there was no collapse in crypto prices until May. Indeed, the bitcoin price rallied in the weeks after the January Fed meeting.

      Crypto Exchange Bitfinex May Be Facing Criminal Investigation in US
      https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/crypto-exchange-bitfinex-m…
      ...
      Crypto exchange Bitfinex is facing a possible criminal investigation in the U.S., according to a Department of Justice (DOJ) reply to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request shared on Twitter late Wednesday.

      The DOJ denied a request for information pertaining to Tether Holdings Limited, its parent company iFinex Inc. and its subsidiaries., which include Bitfinex, citing Exemption 7(A) of the FOIA Guide. The exemption prevents the disclosure of "records or information compiled for law enforcement purposes, but only to the extent that production of such law enforcement records or information ... could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings."

      According to the individual who filed the FOIA request in February 2022, Twitter user oleh86, the request itself asked:

      “Dear Sirs, Pursuant to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552, I am hereby requesting any and all information in the possession of the US Department of Justice on jointly and severally TETHER HOLDINGS LIMITED, TETHER LIMITED, TETHER INTERNATIONAL LIMITED, TETHER OPERATIONS LIMITED, IFINEX INC., BFXNA INC., and BFXWW INC.”

      Embattled Crypto Firm Celsius Files For Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
      https://dailyhodl.com/2022/07/14/embattled-crypto-firm-celsi…
      ...
      Crypto lending firm Celsius is voluntarily filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy weeks after its native asset plummeted by more than 99%.

      According to a new press release, Celsius is filing bankruptcy to undergo a restructuring process in an attempt to stabilize the business and maximize value for stakeholders.

      As stated by Celsius co-founder and CEO Alex Mashinsky,

      “This is the right decision for our community and company. We have a strong and experienced team in place to lead Celsius through this process. I am confident that when we look back at the history of Celsius, we will see this as a defining moment, where acting with resolve and confidence served the community and strengthened the future of the company.”

      The firm filed a series of motions, pending court approval, which would allow it to pay its employees normally as well as continue their benefits without any disruptions, according to the press release.

      Celsius currently has $167 million in cash on hand, which they plan to use as liquid capital during the restructuring process. Part of the company’s reformation includes hiring new executives and legal experts to help it navigate the process.
