Key Points:
This move comes in the wake of multiple lawsuits filed against Celsius Network and Mashinsky by regulatory bodies. Initially kept confidential due to concerns of potential asset depletion, the court order has now been unsealed.
In July, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Department of Justice (DOJ), Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and Federal Trade Commission (FTC) all filed lawsuits against Celsius Network and Alex Mashinsky.
Previously, a federal judge granted a joint request from Mashinsky’s legal team and the DOJ to modify his bail conditions, which now include electronic monitoring.
Judge Gabriel Gorenstein of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York had previously approved a modification to Mashinsky’s $40-million bond, secured by his brokerage account at First Republic Bank and his New York home.
Under the new bail conditions, Mashinsky is restricted from withdrawing, transferring, or receiving more than $10,000 without prior court approval, eliminating the need to rely on his First Republic account for bond collateral.
Mashinsky, who served as CEO of Celsius Network until September 2022, faces charges of securities fraud, commodities fraud, and wire fraud for allegedly misleading and defrauding users.
Following his arrest on July 13, he pleaded not guilty to all charges but was subject to significant travel restrictions as part of his bail conditions.
