United States SEC Fines Digital Currency Group & Subsidiary Genesis Global Capital ex-CEO Soichoro “Michael” Moro $38.5 Million for Misleading Investors About Genesis Financials by Downplaying Impact of $1 Billion Losses by Crypto Hedge Fund Three Arrows Capital in 2022 June
20th January 2025 | Hong Kong
The United States Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) has fined Digital Currency Group & subsidiary Genesis Global Capital ex-CEO Soichoro “Michael” Moro a total of $38.5 million for misleading investors about Genesis financials, by downplaying impact of $1 billion losses by crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital in 2022 June.United States SEC (17/1/25): “The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that Digital Currency Group Inc. (DCG), and Soichoro “Michael” Moro, the former CEO of DCG’s now-defunct subsidiary, Genesis Global Capital LLC, will pay a combined $38.5 million in civil penalties to settle charges for misleading investors about Genesis’s financial condition. According to the SEC’s order, in mid-June 2022, Three Arrows Capital, a crypto asset hedge fund and one of Genesis’s largest borrowers, defaulted on a margin call, which compromised Genesis’s business. DCG and Moro, however, downplayed the impact of the approximately $1 billion loss and exaggerated what DCG did to help Genesis in the aftermath. Specifically, in the days following the default, Moro made false or misleading statements on Twitter, misleadingly characterizing Genesis’s balance sheet as strong and falsely stating that Genesis had shed the risk related to the default. DCG executives retweeted certain of these statements. In addition, after DCG and Genesis entered into a promissory note with a 10-year term, Moro—with the knowledge and participation of DCG personnel—misleadingly tweeted that DCG had ensured that Genesis had “adequate capital to operate” when DCG had in fact not transferred any capital to Genesis.Without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings that they violated Section 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, DCG and Moro agreed to a cease-and-desist order and to pay civil penalties of $38 million and $500,000, respectively.”
