AML Bitcoin Founder Faces Up to 30 Years in Prison for Telecommunications Fraud and Money Laundering

1 days ago

On March 16th, as reported by News.bitcoin, a federal jury in San Francisco found Rowland Marcus Andrade, the founder and CEO of AML Bitcoin, guilty of telecommunications fraud and money laundering. Andrade is scheduled to be sentenced on July 22, 2025. He could face a maximum of 20 years in prison for telecommunications fraud, up to 10 years in prison for money laundering, and the seizure of assets related to his crimes. Based on the evidence presented during the trial, 47-year-old Andrade from Texas misappropriated more than $2 million from AML Bitcoin sales for personal use, such as purchasing two properties in Texas and two luxury cars. He laundered investors' funds through various bank accounts and then used these funds to finance his own purchases. The jury determined that Andrade falsely claimed that AML Bitcoin was about to obtain approval from the Panama Canal Authority, when in fact, no such agreement existed. Through these false statements, he raised millions of dollars from investors.

Institution: Federal Reserve Expected to Hold Interest Rates Steady Through 2025

On March 17th, Lazard's Chief Market Strategist Temple expressed that due to inflation risks, Lazard still anticipates that the Fed will not cut interest rates until 2025. He pointed out that Lazard's perspective is notably different from the market consensus as the market generally assumes that there could be three rate cuts this year. Temple stated, "My viewpoint is in conflict with the consensus because I expect that by 2025, U.S. tariffs will widen in scope and scale, thereby pushing up inflation." He further explained that a re-acceleration of inflation does not necessarily result in interest rate hikes. However, increasing price pressures may prevent the Fed from loosening policy in the face of rising unemployment. (FXStreet)

U.S. February Retail Sales Growth Below Expectations, Uncertainty Leads to Low Consumer Confidence

March 17th: In the United States, retail sales in February witnessed a monthly increase; however, it fell short of expectations. The January sales decline was revised from 0.9% to 1.2% on a month-on-month basis. The report indicates that among 13 categories, only 5 categories experienced an increase in sales in February compared to January. These categories include non-store retailers (representing e-commerce), general merchandise, health and personal care, food and beverages, and building materials.
