Nexo asks Bulgaria for $3 billion in damages following investigation

Nexo asks Bulgaria for  billion in damages following investigation

Cryptocurrency lending platform Nexo has taken significant legal action against the Republic of Bulgaria, demanding $3 billion in damages. The arbitration claim, filed through the World Bank’s International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) in Washington, D.C., centers on allegations that Bulgaria engaged in unfair and politically motivated actions against the company.

The origins of this conflict date back to an investigation launched by Bulgarian prosecutors in early 2023. Nexo’s offices were raided on suspicion of participating in an organized crime group aimed at profiting from cryptocurrency lending. Four Bulgarian nationals, including Nexo co-founders Kosta Kanchev, Antoni Trenchev, Trayan Nikolov and Kalin Metodiev, were charged following these raids. However, the case was dismissed in December 2023 due to lack of evidence and the absence of a legal framework for cryptocurrency assets in Bulgaria.

Nexo claims the investigation is unfounded and has had a serious impact on its business operations and reputation. The company said it was working with U.S. banks for an initial public offering (IPO), with a valuation estimated at $8 billion to $12 billion. Nexo is also said to be close to finalizing sponsorship deals with major European soccer clubs, which could significantly increase Nexo’s global exposure. All of these lucrative opportunities were lost due to the investigation.

In addition to these difficulties, Nexo also faced legal challenges in the United States. The company agreed to a $45 million settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA) regarding its interest-earning products. This led Nexo to discontinue the product in April, citing a lack of regulatory clarity, and ultimately shut down its U.S. operations.

Nexo’s legal team, led by US law firm Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, argues that the investigation by Bulgarian authorities was unfair and oppressive, resulting in significant financial and reputational harm. The suit, filed by Nexo’s Swiss subsidiary Nexo AG, seeks to recover lost opportunities and damages resulting from the allegations.
