As part of a plea agreement dated December 2, Mashinsky admitted to lying to the public about the safety of the tokens and manipulating their price to attract customers, resulting in $42 million in personal profits. He was arrested in July 2023 alongside former chief revenue officer Roni Cohen-Pavon. Mashinsky faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison, with sentencing scheduled for April 8, 2025, at 11:30 AM.
