TechFlow news, according to Reuters, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) created a token named "NexFundAI" and a corresponding company on Ethereum to identify, combat, and bring to justice individuals suspected of fraudulent activities.
It is reported that the FBI used the identity of this company and its token to meet with market makers to discuss "cooperation." One of the defendants explained that his company used bots to simultaneously buy and sell on centralized exchanges (CEX) to generate trading volume. On-chain data shows that the token's trading function was disabled 21 days ago.
Previously, the U.S. Department of Justice filed market manipulation charges against four cryptocurrency firms and their相关人员. The companies involved—Gotbit, ZM Quant, CLS Global, and MyTrade—are accused of manipulating markets through "wash trading" and luring investors into "pump-and-dump" schemes.
