The alleged operators of my large coin were ordered to pay nearly $ 25.8 million to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission for their duties in the crypto scheme.
The CFTC Says On Wednesday, a federal Massachusetts court judge entered a default judgment that mandated my Big Coin Pay, Inc., My Big Coin, Inc., and its executives, Mark Gillespie and John Roche, to pay $ 19.32 million in civil financial penalties and $ 6.44 million in investors.
Gillespie, Roche and the companies are also prohibited from participating in markets or conducting any other market -related activities that fall under the constituents of the CFTC.
My big coin sailed $ 6 million, says the CFTC.
The CFTC claimed that Gillespie, Roche, and another operator Randall Crater, were demanding investors through my Big Coin (MBC) from January 2014 to June 2017, who has accused 28 investors from over $ 6 million.
The regulator case against a alleged operator Michael Kruger, fell due to his death.
The CFTC claimed that the defendants would seek investors under incorrect pretensions and made “false and misleading claims and removal about the value, use, and trading status of the MBC, and the MBC was that -back of gold.”

The CFTC warned investors to investors that they could not return their money “because offenders may not have enough funds or ownership.”
Crater ordered to pay alleged investors
Earlier this year, the court ordered Crater to pay $ 7.6 million to investors who claim to be deceiving.
In February 2024, an appeal court declined Crater a new test, as his legal team said the court violated his rights to the sixth amendment.
On January 31, 2023, Crater was punished In more than eight years in prison after he was convicted in July 2022 by a Grand Jury for four wire frauds, three numbers of unlawful financial transactions and a number of operations of an unlicensed business that release money.
