US authorities seize FTX's $460 million in Robinhood stock The arrest took place as part of a case initiated against a crypto exchange. The shares were acquired in May 2022 - former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried and crypto exchange co-founder Gary Wang formed a holding company. During court hearings in December, Bankman-Fried and Wang swore under oath that they had used Alameda Research funds totaling $546 million to buy the shares. The lawyer of the crypto-exchange insisted in court that the full owner of the shares is unknown and, perhaps, it is the BlockFi company - Bankman-Fried promised to transfer the shares, and now the company is trying to get them through the court. The Justice Department said it would file seizure reports for papers that would list the assets seized from FTX. All this is done in the interests of the court, so that during the proceedings a complete picture is formed: what of the assets of FTX and affiliated companies is at the disposal of the government.

Coinbase to Pay $100M to Settle NYDFS Lawsuit This came to light in a consent-based injunction signed Jan. 4 by New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) superintendent Adrienne Harris. Earlier, the regulator accused the marketplace Coinbase of failing to take proper anti-money laundering measures in 2020 and 2021. The document states that Coinbase's non-compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations is due to a lack of staff, resources and tools. As a result, by the end of 2021, the number of pending suspicious transaction monitoring alerts exceeded 100,000. To settle the NYDFS lawsuit, Coinbase will pay a $50 million fine. The remaining $50 million will be used to conduct AML compliance reviews. Coinbase management said that the additional funding will be an important step in the exchange's journey to improve its business processes.

Circle executive: “Last year was not like a crypto winter, but like an ice age” In a post on the World Economic Forum (WEF) website, Dante Disparte noted the growing use of cryptocurrencies in the financial services sector.

The past year has been very challenging, with one of the worst bear markets in the history of cryptocurrencies. Perhaps 2022 also marks the transfer of blockchain infrastructure and cryptocurrencies into safer hands,” wrote Dispart.

FTX customers outside the US are asking the court not to reveal their identities According to Reuters, a group of clients of the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX outside the United States have filed a petition with bankruptcy judge John Dorsey to maintain the confidentiality of their identities. The Group contends that disclosure of this information could be dangerous to them. According to them, “digital asset holders are particularly susceptible to fraud and theft because cryptocurrencies are difficult to trace and insufficient security measures exist to protect assets.” It is assumed that the collective debt of this group of clients may be about $ 2 billion. Their request was opposed by the bankruptcy supervision service of the US Department of Justice, as well as various media outlets, including the New York Times and WSJ.

Coin Bureau: Bitcoin could crash to $10,000 in three months In his release on YouTube, the analyst said that soon bitcoin may well lose 60% of its capitalization. The driver of the decline should be the decision of the US Federal Reserve on the base rate - if the US Central Bank stops raising the rate, then the stock and other markets will simply collapse. “We will see the bottom of the cryptocurrency market in the first quarter of next year. I think bitcoin will fall to $10,000, and the decline in altcoins will be from 60% to 80%. The main reason will be, as expected, the cessation of raising rates by the Fed. But, I emphasize, this does not mean a reduction in rates, so the cryptocurrency will not fall below the specified limit, ”an anonymous analyst reasoned. According to the author of the Coin Bureau channel, the stock market is expected to decline by 20% or 30% in the coming months. And the cryptocurrency market is more volatile, so it will go down by 40% or 60%.
