Nevada Issues Cease and Desist Order to Cryptocurrency Custodian Fortress Trust
BlockBeats News, October 26th, according to Bloomberg, the regulatory agency in Nevada, USA issued a "cease and desist order" to the crypto custodian Fortress Trust (now renamed Elemental Financial Technologies), stating that its liquidity was "severely insufficient" and it was unable to fulfill customer withdrawal obligations.
Court documents show that Fortress owes customers over $8 million in fiat currency and $4 million in crypto assets, with only less than $200,000 in cash and about $1 million in crypto assets left in its accounts. As early as 2023, Ripple had planned to acquire the company, but withdrew from the deal after losing millions of dollars in a hacking incident.
