Criminal charges against ex-Celsius CEO must stick, prosecutors say
U.S. prosecutors have pushed back against former Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky’s motion to dismiss two criminal charges brought against him. Prosecutors argued that the charges, which include commodities fraud and market manipulation, show Mashinsky’s intention to mislead investors about his crypto platform’s profitability and business practices and manipulate the market for Celsius’ proprietary CEL token.
