The Taiwanese prosecutors have indicted a defunct cryptocurrency exchange "BITGIN" and the heads of Bijing Technology, Liu Yusen, CEO Zhang Hansen, and COO Zhang Yuting, among a total of 10 people, with the Zhang siblings potentially facing 12 years in prison.

Prosecutors allege that the company collaborated with a fraud group, implementing scams and money laundering by providing USDT and coordinating with "fake currency dealers" to exchange cash offline. The case involves 46 victims, with the fraud amount exceeding NT$150 million, and related funds were transferred through cryptocurrency wallets and overseas exchanges to conceal their origins.
