The alleged fraud involved enticing investors to purchase virtual currencies, including ACE\u2019s native asset, under false pretenses.<\/p>\n<p>Investors were allegedly promised by Pan and Lin that ACE would become Taiwan\u2019s leading cryptocurrency trading platform. The value of the native asset quickly fell, and investors discovered that they were unable to exchange the digital assets back into Taiwanese dollars as promised.<\/p>\n<p>The accused, according to the prosecution, manipulated the market to draw in additional investors. Wang Chen-huan is charged with collecting $5.5 million and using some of it to reinvest in ACE, therefore deceiving dealers and raising asset values artificially.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong> Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.
