British software engineer Lewis Barber has filed a £20 million lawsuit against cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX, alleging it offered unauthorized derivatives trading to UK customers between 2018 and 2022 without approval from the Financial Conduct Authority. Barber seeks the return of Bitcoin lost or equivalent compensation, claiming BitMEX breached UK financial regulations. BitMEX denies the claim has been formally served and has faced prior US legal penalties for compliance failures.
