FinCEN Extends Crypto Rule Comment Period, Crypto Payment Products Launch

By: Robert A. Musiala Jr.

This week the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) published a notice extending the comment period for its proposed rule that would impose new requirements on certain transactions involving convertible virtual currency or digital assets with legal tender status. The comment period has been extended to March 29, 2021.

In cryptocurrency payments news, according to a recent press release, a major U.S. nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating cancer has announced a partnership with The Giving Block, a cryptocurrency donations company, to launch a new cancer research project that will be exclusively funded with cryptocurrency donations. Separately, cryptocurrency exchange LVL has reportedly begun taking preorders for a new cryptocurrency debit card product issued in partnership with a major U.S. financial services firm. And two major cryptocurrency exchanges, Kraken and eToro, recently published market reports with analysis of current trends in the cryptocurrency industry.

In a final notable item, earlier this month, reports found that someone transferred 74.6 million Synthetix Network Tokens (SNX), worth over $1 billion, on the Ethereum network through a contract called “Synthetix: Reward Escrow.” The transaction fee for the transfer was a mere $7.54. Synthetix is a decentralized finance protocol for trading asset-pegged synthetic tokens on Ethereum. This transaction is one of the largest single cryptocurrency transactions to date.

In fact, Spence’s client accounts lost money, and Spence used new investor money to pay out earlier investors. Criminal charges have been brought by the U.S. Attorney, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission has filed a separate federal civil enforcement action.

Earlier this week, Jerry Ji Guo was sentenced in a California federal court for conducting a fraud in which he represented himself as an initial coin offering consultant and promised his clients that he would perform marketing and publicity services for them. Instead of doing so, Guo embezzled his clients’ funds. Guo was ordered to pay over $4 million in restitution and was sentenced to six months in prison.

Also this week, the U.S. Department of Justice announced a coordinated international law enforcement action to disrupt a sophisticated form of…
