  • DCG and its CEO Barry Silbert refute NYAG’s fraud allegations in a $3 billion lawsuit, calling them unfounded.
  • Genesis, a DCG subsidiary, settled with NYAG but was later included in an expanded complaint against DCG.
  • DCG asserts their actions were in good faith, backed by professional advice, and aims to focus on future industry growth.

Digital Currency Group (DCG) and its CEO, Barry Silbert, have taken a firm stance against accusations from the New York Attorney General’s Office (NYAG). The venture capital firm and its leader are facing a $3 billion lawsuit, which they argue is built on groundless claims. DCG shared its side on X.

A Legal Battle Unfolds

The lawsuit originates from the NYAG’s charges that DCG, along with other crypto firms, misled investors through the Gemini Earn investment program, allegedly impacting thousands, including a significant number of New Yorkers. Despite a settlement by Genesis, a DCG subsidiary, the NYAG expanded its complaint to include both Genesis and DCG shortly thereafter.

DCG’s Defense Strategy

DCG and Silbert have expressed their intent to not only dismiss the lawsuit but also to clear their names of any wrongdoing. They argue that their support for Genesis, especially during challenging times like the collapse of Three Arrows Capital (3AC), was a well-intentioned effort to stabilize the situation, backed by sound advice from reputable professionals.

The venture capital firm is eager to resolve this legal dispute, emphasizing their commitment to contributing positively to the cryptocurrency industry’s future. As the legal proceedings unfold, DCG remains confident in its actions and the integrity of its business practices, looking ahead to a future beyond the current legal challenge.
