New York Attorney General James Secures Appointment Of Court Receiver To Protect Investors’ Money During Lawsuit - Coinseed Continued To Put Thousands Of Investors’ Money At Risk Despite Ongoing Lawsuit

Date 07/06/2021

New York Attorney General Letitia James has secured a court order that continues a mandated pause on the illegal and fraudulent operations of the cryptocurrency trading platform Coinseed, Inc. and puts in place a receiver to ensure the protection of investors’ money going forward. In February, Attorney General James filed a lawsuit against Coinseed, as well as founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Delgerdalai Davaasambuu, — but, in the months since the suit was filed, Coinseed and its CEO not only continued their fraud, but commenced additional fraudulent conduct by trading in investors’ accounts without permission and then blocking investors from accessing those accounts. On Friday, the New York County State Supreme Court issued an order that grants a motion — filed last month by Attorney General James — and appoints Michelle Gitlitz, the global head of Crowell & Moring LLP’s Blockchain and Digital Assets practice, as a court-appointed receiver with special powers to safeguard investments already made on the trading platform. A previously issued temporary restraining order continues to block Coinseed and its CEO from making any further unauthorized trades.
