NY attorney general seeks $1.37B from NovaTech founders in Ponzi case
TradingGain Newsroom··23 Oct 2026, 12:33 UTCNew York's attorney general is asking for $1.37 billion from the founders of NovaTech over an alleged Ponzi scheme. The request follows an August 2025 default judgment, and the office also announced nearly $6 million in settlements with four promoters. For traders, it is a sign of tougher enforcement against crypto fraud, though it does not directly move prices.
Why it matters
- Enforcement against alleged crypto fraud continues through court judgments and settlements.
- The $1.37 billion request targets the NovaTech founders personally.
- Nearly $6 million in settlements with four promoters shows action reaching beyond the founders.
What to watch next
Watch for a court ruling or further settlements in the NovaTech case, as these could shape how regulators pursue crypto fraud.
