A very important decision was made in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. A judge named Gregory Woods granted an order requiring Voyager Digital and its affiliates to pay $1.65 billion to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The ruling, filed on November 28, 2023, comes after a settlement was negotiated between Voyager and the Federal Trade Commission last October. This agreement marks an important turning point in the regulatory control of Bitcoin lending companies.

The Federal Trade Commission has taken legal action against Voyager Digital and its former CEO Stephen Ehrlich, accusing the company of making false statements about the security of consumers’ cash. In particular, it created a misconception that customer accounts were protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), a deception that occurred at a time when Voyager was looking at the possibility of filing for bankruptcy. The false advertising gave consumers the impression that their U.S. dollar deposits were safe. This resulted in significant losses for Voyager when the company filed for bankruptcy in July 2022.”

Voyager will be fined $1.65 billion and, under the terms of the settlement, will be prohibited from promoting or offering any products or services linked to digital assets. These penalties are postponed to give Voyager an opportunity to compensate its customers. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is conducting ongoing investigations, and Voyager and its related parties have an obligation to assist the FTC in such investigations. This includes submitting testimony and responding to discovery requests. The settlement amount is scheduled to be paid once creditors are compensated in Voyager’s ongoing bankruptcy proceedings.

In a turbulent era for the cryptocurrency market, Voyager disclosed debt ranging from $1 billion to $10 billion when it filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in July 2022.CFTC) The case, which brings charges against former CEO Stephen Ehrlich, also includes claims of fraud and registration issues. The CFTC is filing charges against Ehrlich. This FTC settlement is not related to any bankruptcy proceedings currently underway in court. This process entails a plan whereby Voyager users will receive 35.72% of the billed amount from the start.

This incident highlights the growing interest and regulatory action being taken within the cryptocurrency sector, particularly with regard to the protection and representation of consumer assets. The participation of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in this case and the high payment amount are examples showing the increasing trend of regulators actively participating in the operations of cryptocurrency companies to protect consumer rights and interests.
