Управление ED Индии изъяло криптовалюту на сумму $286 млн и арестовало гражданина Испании Павла Прозорова, обвиняемого в организации финансовой пирамиды OctaFX.
OctaFX обманывала инвесторов, выдавая себя за легальную платформу для торговли валютой и криптовалютой, и переводила средства в офшорные компании.
ED сотрудничает с международными органами для выявления всех участников схемы, охватившей десятки стран и причинившей убытки на сотни миллионов долларов.

Управление по борьбе с финансовыми преступлениями Индии (ED) изъяло криптовалюту на сумму около $286 млн и арестовало гражданина Испании Павла Прозорова. Его обвиняют в управлении финансовой пирамидой OctaFX. Мероприятие стало одной из крупнейших в Индии операций по борьбе с отмыванием денег (AML) и несанкционированной торговлей на рынке Форекс, направленной против индийских инвесторов.

ED подтвердило, что предварительный ордер на арест был выдан в соответствии с Законом о предотвращении отмывания денег (PMLA). Испанские власти задержали Павла Прозорова после международного запроса, сославшись на его роль в киберпреступлениях, связанных с сетью OctaFX.

По данным следствия, платформа выдавала себя за законный сервис торговли валютой и криптовалютой без разрешения Резервного банка Индии (RBI). Инвесторам обещали высокую прибыль от торговли валютой и криптовалютой, но на деле средства переводились в офшоры.

OctaFX: схема и география мошенничества

Следователи выяснили, что OctaFX похитила около $225 млн у индийских инвесторов в период с июля 2022 года по апрель 2023 года. Общая прибыль только в Индии с 2019 по 2024 год составила более $600 млн.

Департамент юстиции заявил, что OctaFX использовала схему финансовой пирамиды. Ранние инвесторы получали небольшую прибыль, чтобы завоевать доверие, в то время как средства новых инвесторов использовались для поддержания выплат и расширения стратегии. Мошенничество затронуло тысячи людей в нескольких городах Индии, а средства были отслежены на счетах в нескольких странах.

Следователи раскрыли сложную сеть международных организаций, использовавшихся для маскировки и перемещения украденных средств:

компании на Британских Виргинских островах занимались маркетингом;
в Испании управляли серверами и бэк-офисными операциями;
в Эстонии обрабатывали платежи;
в Грузии работала техническую поддержку;
в Дубае российские граждане курировали деятельность в Индии.

Расследование продолжается: власти отслеживают офшорные счета и активы, связанные с сетью OctaFX. ED заявило, что сотрудничает с иностранными ведомствами для выявления дополнительных бенефициаров и партнеров, участвующих в отмывании денег через глобальную систему криптовалют.

Недавно FIU Индии направило уведомления 25 офшорным криптобиржам за нарушение требований AML и отсутствие регистрации в соответствии с PMLA. Власти обязали интернет-провайдеров и магазины приложений заблокировать доступ к этим платформам.

Rebound or liquidation? SOL at a make or break point!

Solana (SOL) traders are facing a critical juncture as market sentiment hits yearly lows. Trading volume has plummeted to approximately $2.27 billion, its lowest in 2026, while negative sentiment has surged significantly. This frustration stems from SOL's price performance lagging behind its growing ecosystem activity. Despite the prevailing negativity, which can sometimes precede a bullish reversal, the derivatives market shows a heavy skew towards long positions, with $7.4 billion in long exposure versus $3.1 billion in shorts. A major cluster of long liquidations sits around $61-$62, posing a risk if the price declines. Although technical indicators like the RSI are neutral and the MACD is positive, the upward momentum is cooling. SOL's price, near $77.95, is testing resistance. The crowded long positions remain a potential source of selling pressure, meaning SOL needs to break above recent highs to rebuild trader confidence and avoid a deeper downturn.

IP Token Plunges 98%, Is DATA Rebranding the Last-Ditch Effort? Analyzing Story Protocol's Transformation

IP Token Plummets 98%, Is DATA Rebranding a Last Gamble? Analyzing Story Protocol's Pivot **Summary** Story Protocol, having seen its IP token fall approximately 98% from its all-time high, announced a major pivot on June 25, rebranding as the DATA Foundation. The project will shift its focus from IP to AI training data infrastructure, with a corresponding token change from IP to DATA. While the announcement triggered a brief price bounce, the token soon fell back near its lows. This analysis argues that such a fundamental rebrand is not typically a bullish signal, but rather an admission that the original strategy failed. Historically, rebrands fail when not backed by genuine improvements in product, user adoption, or liquidity, as seen in cases like MultiversX (Elrond) and Golem. Merely chasing a new narrative without execution is insufficient. Conversely, successful pivots are defined by on-chain evidence of growth. The transformation of ETHLend into Aave is the prime example, where a surge in Total Value Locked (TVL) and users preceded and drove long-term value. Projects like Polygon and Kaia, despite price declines, show underlying operational strength. Story’s pivot, announced just two weeks after its token hit a record low, risks being perceived as a last-ditch marketing effort. Leadership changes—with founder Seung Yoon Lee moving to an advisory role—further close the chapter on the original vision. For the DATA rebrand to succeed, it must demonstrably improve the token's relative strength against the market, boost on-chain liquidity/volume, and generate real user growth and settlement revenue from its new AI data narrative. Without such tangible results, Story will likely join the list of failed rebrands.

Bitwise Reports Third Consecutive Crypto Market Decline as Tokenized Assets Reach Record Highs

Bitwise's Q2 2026 report details a third consecutive quarterly decline for the broader crypto market, with its Large Cap Crypto Index falling 15.4%. This downturn was marked by significant outflows from Spot Bitcoin ETFs, decreased trading activity, and heightened correlation with traditional stock markets. However, the report highlights a stark divergence from this negative price action, showcasing record growth in several blockchain sectors. Prediction markets saw trading volume surge to a historic $43.2 billion, while the total value of tokenized real-world assets grew over 50% year-to-date to nearly $32.89 billion. Key infrastructure also expanded, with stablecoin adoption and settlement volume outpacing major networks like Visa. Despite crypto asset prices underperforming, metrics such as Ethereum transaction activity and DeFi TVL have risen substantially from their 2022 lows, indicating robust and advancing underlying blockchain technology adoption.
