> Mazzant held Shavers and his company liable to give up $38.6 million of illegal profits plus $1.8 million in interest. Each defendant was also fined $150,000.
The loss to investors was about $150 million.
The loss to investors was about $150 million.
Which basically means they get away with 110 millions ? (granted that since it's a ponzi scheme they may have given some money to early investors).
>During the relevant period, Shavers obtained at least 700,467 BTC in principal investments from BTCST investors, or $4,592,806 when converted to U.S. dollars based on the daily average price of BTC when the BTCST investors purchased their BTCST investments.
I'm not sure whether he sold his bitcoins back when the prices were low or held them.
