A Bitcoin trader in Los Angeles, California is facing prosecution for allegedly running an unregistered multimillion dollar Bitcoin-fiat money transmitting business, NBC LA reported yesterday, June 11.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office has contended that the ‘Maven’ exchanged between $6 and $9.5 mln in the course of her operations.
The case is reportedly considered to be the first of its kind in Southern California.
The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) regulates crypto-fiat dealings under existing legislation for money transmitters.
As of 2011, U.S. cryptocurrency exchangers and administrators have been subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA).
