Enforcement Directorate Probes Indian Crypto Platforms Over Financial Violations and Fraud
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is investigating major Indian crypto platforms for alleged financial violations. CoinDCX and Delta Exchange face probes over unauthorized futures and tokenized US stock trading via stablecoins, involving cross-border transactions through foreign exchanges. Separately, ED has attached assets worth about ₹14.2 crore linked to HashPe, accused of running a Ponzi scheme promising high returns without actual trading. Investigations cite use of stablecoins and cryptocurrencies to facilitate transactions, with legal actions underway under relevant financial laws.
