CFTC commissioners are currently conferring and may decide to pursue the Voyager chief in the coming days, sources said.
Ehrlich said he was “angry and perplexed” by the anticipated prosecution by the US federal office, calling it unfounded.
Voyager Digital filed for bankruptcy in July 2022 in the wake of falling cryptocurrency prices. The platform was then initially acquired by FTX, which subsequently filed for bankruptcy itself, and then by Binance, which preferred to abandon the deal due to the “hostile” regulatory climate in the US.
Last May, in the absence of a buyer, the team in charge of the bankruptcy proceedings announced the self-liquidation of the company’s assets and the cessation of its operations.
