According to lawyer Damian Williams, Gregory Dwyer’s request now implies that the US government can difficulty sentences towards 4 vital BitMEX executives, such as 3 other co-founders, Samuel Reed and Benjamin Delo and Arthur Hayes for intentionally violating the laws. anti-income laundering laws.

“Gregory Dwyer’s confession today reflects that cryptocurrency exchange regulators, no less than the founders, have knowingly ignored their obligations under the Security Act. Banking Secrets.”

US authorities have presently prosecuted BitMEX in 2020, with the US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) filing civil and fraudulent actions towards the exchange. to enable US citizens to trade cryptocurrencies.

However, BitMEX is not licensed to operate in the nation and has bad KYC requirements. The allegations resulted in the business having to pay a $ one hundred million fine, and co-founders and senior executives had been forced out of the company’s operations.

The 3 founders who pleaded guilty are Samuel Reed, Benjamin Delo, and Arthur Hayes. All 3 have reached an agreement with the government to decrease sentences and fines. So, Mr. Gregory Dwyer seems to have the identical need as his colleagues when he agrees to spend a $ 150,000 fine.

However, the sentence will be made the decision by Judge John G. Koeltl, who also sentenced the 3 co-founders. The highest sentence for Gregory Dwyer’s crime is 5 many years in prison, but lots of count on Dwyer to get a lighter sentence. However, it can be viewed that the US government’s determination to carry all people connected with BitMEX to justice has sent a “steely” warning to the complete cryptocurrency sector.
