Show Notes

Federal prosecutors in California charge ten individuals linked to crypto firms for wash trading schemes, faking demand to pump token prices and volumes. The bust was a result of an undercover FBI sting, with Gotbits founder already pleading guilty. Crypto experts warn that wash trading is still prevalent, especially with low-cap tokens on unregulated exchanges. As enforcement ramps up, the crypto market could transition from wild west to legit turf, with better tools to spot fakes and a clearer line between market making and fraud.
