Bitcoin price is above $22,100 currently. A glance at the daily chart reveals the price rallied last Friday as Wall Street ended higher third straight session – the first series of three daily gains in a row in the last twenty sessions.

The cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase announced it is funding a lawsuit brought by six people challenging the US Treasury Department’s sanctions of the Tornado Cash smart contracts.

Coinbase is asking the court to remove Tornado Cash smart contracts from the US sanctions list.

 

Filings from the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation in US allege the crypto network Celsius was insolvent as early as 2019. Furthermore, in its 341 bankruptcy meeting, where creditors question debtors under oath, Celsius admitted that the company never earned enough revenue to support the yields paid to investors. Vermont regulators contend this suggests yields to existing investors were probably paid with assets of new investors, a main feature of a Ponzi scheme.
