Celsius founder Alex Mashinsky banned from trading after fraud conviction involving $20B in customer funds.

Alexander Mashinsky, founder of Celsius Network, received a permanent trading and registration ban following a CFTC consent order after being convicted of fraud. Regulators alleged Celsius misled customers about the safety and profitability of its platform, which attracted about $20 billion in assets before collapsing. Mashinsky pleaded guilty to commodities and securities fraud and was sentenced to 12 years in prison. This marks a significant regulatory crackdown amid ongoing SEC, FTC, and DOJ actions related to Celsius' collapse and misleading claims to investors.
