🚀 California Judge Dismisses Class Action Against Dfinity Foundation

According to Odaily, a federal judge in California has dismissed a class action lawsuit against the Dfinity Foundation, the developer of ICP tokens. U.S. District Court Judge James Donato granted Dfinity's motion to dismiss, ruling that the case was "time-barred" due to exceeding the three-year statute of limitations under securities law. The court supported Dfinity's argument that the initial public offering of ICP tokens occurred in February 2017, making the investor lawsuit filed in August 2021 beyond the legal timeframe. The plaintiffs, represented by Freedman Normand Friedland LLP, formerly known as Roche Freedman, did not respond to the defendant's argument. Consequently, Judge Donato stated that dismissing these claims due to the expiration of the statute of limitations was "appropriate."#California #Judge #Dismisses #ClassAction #DfinityFoundation #ICPTokens #SecuritiesLaw #StatuteOfLimitations #Investors #CourtRuling
🚀 Australian Court Ruling May Lead to Significant Bitcoin Tax Refunds

According to Odaily, a recent court ruling in Australia could result in a $640 million tax refund related to Bitcoin. Judge Michael O'Connell of Victoria ruled in a theft case involving 81.6 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $13 million, that Bitcoin should be considered currency rather than a taxable asset. This decision challenges the Australian Taxation Office's (ATO) stance since 2014, which has classified cryptocurrencies as capital gains tax (CGT) assets.
Tax lawyer Adrian Cartland noted that if the ruling is upheld on appeal, Bitcoin traders could receive refunds totaling 1 billion Australian dollars, or about $640 million. The ATO has not yet confirmed the specific refund amount. Notably, the judge compared Bitcoin to the Australian dollar rather than stocks or gold, suggesting that Bitcoin transactions might be exempt from the current CGT framework.
Previously, the ATO required that any disposal of Bitcoin, including converting it to fiat currency, trading it for other cryptocurrencies, or purchasing goods, constituted a CGT taxable event.#Australia #Bitcoin #TaxRefund #CourtRuling #Cryptocurrency #Taxation #CapitalGainsTax #Judge #Victoria #BitcoinTraders #BTC

🚀 New York Judge Extends Freeze on Stolen USDC Wallets

According to Odaily, a New York judge has temporarily extended the freeze on wallets holding approximately $63 million in stolen USDC stablecoins. This decision supports the request of the liquidator from the now-defunct cryptocurrency cross-chain bridge, Multichain, based in Singapore.
Judge David S. Jones has ordered Circle to maintain the freeze on three Ethereum wallets and preserve the dollar reserves backing the stolen USDC. The liquidator warned that lifting the freeze could result in 'irreparable harm.' Additionally, the order has paused a separate class-action lawsuit initiated by a group of U.S. investors seeking control over the funds.
Last Friday, the case was transferred to the federal court in the Southern District of New York after Circle invoked the Class Action Fairness Act. Under Section 1519 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the order is temporary, and the court will review whether the Singapore liquidation process qualifies as a 'foreign main proceeding' to regulate cross-border bankruptcy cooperation.#NewYork #judge #freeze #stolenUSDC #wallets #cryptocurrency #Multichain #Circle #Ethereum #liquidator #crosschain #classaction #USinvestors #bankruptcy #foreignmainproceeding #USDC
