U.S. prosecutors said the four defendant companies established cryptocurrency projects but provided false information and conducted wash trading to create the illusion that these projects were active and in high demand. The defendants began to sell the goods for arbitrage.

All four companies pleaded guilty and forfeited $25 million worth of crypto assets.

Meanwhile, Gotbit, ZM Quant, CLS Global and MyTrade are the market makers hired to wash trade these tokens.

It is worth noting that in order to investigate this case, the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) created a token called NexFundAI as a bait, and then hired market makers to establish a market and eventually collect criminal evidence.

Previously, the U.S. Authorities also fined Binance $4.3 billion for money laundering.
