Briefly
- The twins have accused CFTC of leading a seven -year campaign of “legal” career ambitions, not consumer protection.

- Twins claim that there was no damage to the market and criticized the continuation of the chase of the agency despite the evidence that discredited its key witness.
Crypto Exchange Gemini appealed against the commission trading commission, accusing the Department of Implementing the Agency of Revelation Seven Years of “Legal Legal”, which has advanced career priority for the protection of consumers and lost millions of taxpayers.
Gemini argued that the implementation lawyers were “selective and unfairly armed” Federal Law to submit a “suspicious false statement” against the exchange founded by Cameron and Tyler Winclevoss, in a 13 -page letter submitted June 13, CFTC Inspector General Christopher Skinner.
“Doe staff was not motivated by the principled application of the law or the desire to protect the commodity market,” Gemini’s lawyers wrote. “Instead, these attorneys were encouraged by the selfish desire to improve their career career, to get a high” victory “against Blina Trust.”
The company states that the entire investigation stemmed from “filed by whistle with lies by a discreteed former employee” who sought revenge after discharge.
Gimini appeal stems from 2022 CFTC lawsuit that charged twins Giving “material false or wrong statements” regulators in 2017 about whether his mechanism for Bitcoin prices was sensitive to manipulation.
These statements were critical because they helped the support of CBOE’s initiating the first Bitcoin Futures Agreement, which used Gemini prices to determine the value of the settlement.
The twins eventually paid a $ 5 million fine of $ 5 million In January to resolve the case without recognition of injustice.
Where it started
The origin dates from 2017, when the former Gemini Main Chief Benjamin Small submitted a whistle report, claiming that the exchange made false statements on Bitcoin Futures.
However, Gemini says that Small was actually discharged for helping to facilitate a fraud scheme in the amount of $ 7.45 million, and then started what he called a campaign to “destroy” the company.
The exchange indicates a decision on Arbitra 2022, which revealed that the little one “falsely procured his employment”, “lied repeatedly” and made false statements in his whistle.
Nevertheless, the execution of the CFTC continued to persecute Bemini until he did actions against SMALL, which could now get a $ 1.5 million reward to Whistleblower.
The complaint states that the leading prosecutor Andrew Rodgers left CFTC shortly after the settlement to join a private law firm, where his biography now considers a twin case as one of the “most prominent agencies questions”.
As an acting president of the CFTC Caroline Pham has publicly criticized The toxic culture of the implementation department and called for reform, Gemini said they were encouraged by these efforts. However, he warns that repairing the division will require “serious introspection and long -term commitment.”
Appeal comes while twins are conducting ambitious expansion plans, recently announcing the plans for the public and supposedly close to the Malta license This would allow paneuropic operations according to new regulations on cryptocurrency on the EU.
