DOJ moves to dismiss charges against alleged $722M BitClub fraudster: Report
Matthew Goettsche was set to face trial in October for conspiracy to commit wire fraud and selling unregistered securities.
The US Department of Justice is reportedly moving to drop charges against the founder of BitClub Network, a purported crypto mining platform that allegedly defrauded investors of $722 million between 2014 and 2019.
A court filing shows Matthew Goettsche’s attorneys wrote to New Jersey district court Judge Claire Cecchi on Wednesday, stating that the parties “reached an agreement in principle” to resolve the pending charges “but need time to finalize the terms.”
