The U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issued a final judgment on April 7 against UAE entity market maker CLS Global FZC LLC, Wu said. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) previously accused the self-proclaimed cryptoasset market maker of creating a false and active trading façade by manipulating the “NexFundAI” market, which the SEC recognizes as securities, to induce investors to buy. CLS Global agreed to a judgment of $425,000 in civil penalties, $3,000 in forfeiture of ill-gotten gains, and a cessation of doing business with U.S. users or entities. It will also need to submit a certificate of compliance annually for the next three years.
