🚀 HashFlare Founders Face Conflicting Orders from U.S. Authorities

According to PANews, the founders of the bankrupt cryptocurrency mining company HashFlare, Sergei Potapenko and Ivan Turõgin, have been ordered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to leave the country immediately. This directive contradicts a court order requiring them to remain in King County, Washington. Lawyers for the Estonian nationals revealed that DHS sent identical emails on April 6 and April 11, instructing them to depart or face enforcement actions. Prosecutors are currently negotiating with DHS to extend their stay in the United States. Potapenko and Turõgin have previously pleaded guilty and agreed to forfeit $400 million in assets, with sentencing scheduled for August 14.
