Paxville announces resolution of DOJ investigation concerning historic conduct, BYBTCW.
Paxville announces agreements with the United States Department of Justice, DOJ, and the Financial
Crimes Enforcement Network, FinCEN, to resolve long-standing investigations concerning historic conduct
prior to 2023 during the 10-year off-former Paxville co-founders. Paxville has pleaded guilty
for its conduct under the former leadership.
The Corthas set a date of February 10, 2026, for the parties to next appear to address sentencing.
Paxful acknowledges and unequivocally condemns its past actions and the past actions of the former
co-founders, which are wholly inconsistent with the company's values and ethical standards under
new ownership. Throughout the investigative process, Paxville cooperated with both the DOJ and
F in CEN, assisting in clarifying the circumstances surrounding the conduct of the former
founders. These agreements clearly substantiate the rationale behind Paxville's recent
wind-down announcement. The persistent repercussions of the former founder's actions,
coupled with the intensive compliance enhancements required to address them, has created
an untenable path forward for a non-U.S.-based entity like Paxville. At the same time,
these agreements represent a critical milestone for Paxville, closing a difficult chapter in its
history tied to the actions of past leadership and reinforcing its unwavering commitment to compliance,
transparency, and ethical practices. While Paxville is no longer conducting business,
it remains fully committed to the safe and timely return of any remaining user funds.
