The wife of Craig Wright can not withdraw bitcoins in the amount of $ 3 million

The cryptocurrency exchange UFX received a lawsuit from Ramona Eng, the wife of Australian scientist and entrepreneur Craig Wright, who accuses the site of freezing her account and preventing the withdrawal of funds. Reports about it Trustnodes .

Eng claims that her initial deposit was $ 200,000, and from January to May and from July to August 2017, she traded bitcoin futures with leverage. On August 10, its assets grew to $ 700,000. At the same time, according to the claimant’s suggestion, the Fintech-owning company Reliantco decided to close its account.

At the end of August, when Ramona Eng tried to withdraw the funds in the account, the position reached $ 1.1 million. At the time of going to court, the amount rose to $ 2.5 million, and on the day of the hearing itself – to almost $ 3 million.

Now the spouse of the self-proclaimed Satoshi Nakamoto is demanding compensation for the open position on Bitcoin.

In its defense, Reliantco claims that Eng invested in futures as a professional trader, but was registered on the platform as a “retail customer.”

BlockchainJournal will continue to monitor the situation.

Recall, in April, Craig Wright sued the lawsuit on the protection of honor and dignity against the Twitter user Hodlonaut, and also offered a reward of $ 5000 in Bitcoin SV for information that will help in his identification.
