Dutch prosecutors are trying to force a collapsed crypto platform into bankruptcy to protect tens of thousands of customers locked out of their money.
Running alongside is a criminal probe by the Fiscal Information and Investigation Service, or FIOD, into possible offenses, prompted by AFM signals and a complaint from the regulator. On Monday, investigators carried out searches, seized laptops and phones, and confiscated company assets. No one has been arrested. Prosecutors stressed that the civil and criminal tracks are handled by separate teams.
