If you have been keeping up with the crypto news, you have heard of the BitMEX scandal. If you are yet to hear about the scandal, then you are reading the right article.

The BitMEX Scandal

The Federal government recently filed civil and criminal charges against BitMEX and four of its top executives.

  1. The U.S CFTC filed civil charges against BitMEX and its affiliates claiming that the company operated an unregistered trading platform. It was also accused of failing to implement anti-money laundering controls such as checking the identities of the service traders.
  2. The New York federal prosecutors filed parallel criminal charges against BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes, co-founder Benjamin Dalo, Chief technology officer Samuel Reed, and Gregory Dwyer who is the head of business development.
  3. Similarly, the government alleged that the executives had failed to establish anti-money laundering practices like collecting user identity information and reporting suspicious transactions, required under the Bank Secrecy Act. According to prosecutors, the charges are punishable by up to five years in prison.

The charges which immediately disrupted a key component of the global cryptocurrency market sent most cryptocurrencies into an immediate selloff.

Within two hours of becoming public, the price of Bitcoin dropped more than 3%.

BitMEX founders are stepping down from their executive roles following the exchange being charged with illegal conduct.  Last Thursday, 100x announced that founders Arthur Hayes and Samuel Reed stepped back from all executive management responsibilities for their respective CEO and CTO roles with immediate effect. Vivien Khoo, currently a chief operating officer of 100x Group, will become Interim CEO, while Ben Radclyffe, commercial director, will take on a supporting role with greater management of client relationships and oversight of financial products.

The scandal has had a serious effect on the platform. Not only has it led to huge losses, but it has also caused many of the investors to move to other exchange platforms because of the lack of trust.
