Crypto Capital

Crypto Capital Corp. operated as a "shadow bank" for the cryptocurrency industry, processing fiat currency transactions for numerous exchanges, most notably Bitfinex. It gained prominence by offering financial services to crypto businesses cut off from the traditional banking system. However, the company collapsed following the seizure of its funds by international authorities and the indictment of its key operators by the U.S. Department of Justice on charges of bank fraud and operating an unlicensed money transmitting business, leading to the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars of its clients' funds.
