Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Kristin N. Johnson Regarding CFTC Action Against Market Manipulation Scheme In The Digital Assets Markets

Date 10/01/2023

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) today filed a complaint against Avraham Eisenberg (Defendant), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.  The CFTC alleges that Eisenberg devised and carried out a scheme to manipulate the price of a thinly-traded digital asset—the Mango token (MNGO)—in order to benefit swaps positions he opened on Mango Markets, a decentralized digital asset exchange.  As a result of his manipulative scheme, Eisenberg was able to misappropriate more than $100 million from Mango Markets, essentially bankrupting the platform and harming other users.  Notably, Eisenberg publicly acknowledged his manipulation, and even brazenly proposed to the Mango Markets user community that he would return some of the funds he stole in exchange for an agreement not to pursue him criminally.  By his misconduct Eisenberg violated both anti-fraud and anti-manipulation provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act and the CFTC’s regulations.
