The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced it has filed a lawsuit against Cash FX Group and three individuals, accusing them of running a $950 million-plus investment scam involving cryptocurrency. The defendants include Cash FX and its CEO Huascar Jose Lopez Castillo (Brazil), The Conversion Pros and its CEO Ronald Pope (Oregon), and Justin Halladay (Florida). The complaint was filed Friday with the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The CFTC alleges the defendants operated a multi-level marketing Ponzi scheme, raising and accepting over $950 million in funds under the pretense of trading retail foreign exchange contracts in commodity pools. The CFTC states the defendants falsely claimed funds were managed by professional traders, proprietary algorithms, and artificial intelligence, promising returns of up to 15% weekly. In reality, Cash FX conducted minimal foreign exchange trading, misappropriated most participants' funds, used new investors' contributions to pay out fictional trading profits, and transferred millions of dollars to each defendant. The defendants also provided participants with false accounting statements, resulting in at least $406 million in investor losses.

According to GMGN data, the market cap of PAID on Solana has now exceeded $50 million, with a 24-hour increase of over 410% and trading volume of $54.2 million in the same period. Paid launched its token issuance feature on Pons on the 19th. The official stated that 80% of fees will be distributed to X users via X Money, while 20% will be converted into SOL for repurchasing PAID tokens. Creators can send fees via X Money by adding an X Handle to their project's description. Additionally, celebrities on X can receive fund distributions via X Money without even registering for Paid or providing consent. Some celebrities even joked that their X Money accounts were experiencing DDoS attacks due to the frequent notifications of incoming fee splits. In a PAID official announcement today, it was revealed that $1.44 million has been successfully distributed to X Money users via the token creator fee auto-splitting tool. BlockBeats reminds users that related tokens are highly volatile, so investment requires caution.

According to GMGN market data, the Solana-based meme coin e/acc hit a market cap of $29 million and a trading volume of $55.5 million just 9 hours after its launch. The token uses UsePaid, a tool for automatic creator fee distribution, to pay generated creator fees to Silicon Valley influencer Beff Jezos (@beffjezos) on X. The real identity behind the account is widely believed to be Guillaume Verdon, a former Google X quantum computing and quantum machine learning engineer who later founded AI hardware firm Extropic. Verdon is more famous for his e/acc (effective accelerationism) slogan than his personal profile: the ideology of pushing AI, energy, and growth to their limits through technology and capital. After the e/acc meme coin launched today, Verdon initially claimed the X Money account was under DDoS attack, but later clarified that the funds would likely be used for e/acc-related non-profit activities. Notably, Verdon has no official issuance connection to the token; he is merely named and receives funds passively. BlockBeats reminds users that most meme coins lack real use cases, exhibit extreme price volatility, and caution is required for investments.
