Judge rejects bid to free FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried during his trial

A judge on Thursday closed the door on FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried's hopes to be free during his trial, although he extended the hours that the cryptocurrency peddler can meet with his lawyers in a federal courthouse. At a hearing, Judge Lewis A. Kaplan rejected a request by Bankman-Fried's lawyers to free their client so he could better prepare his defence against charges that he defrauded cryptocurrency investors. Bankman-Fried, 31, faces the start of his trial Tuesday in Manhattan. He has pleaded not guilty. His lawyer, Mark Cohen, told Kaplan that he cannot meaningfully confer with his client as long as Bankman-Fried is jailed at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn. And he insisted that there was no risk that Bankman-Fried would flee, prompting Kaplan to interrupt him. The closer we get to trial, the more I'm wondering about that, Kaplan said. "Your client, if there is conviction, could be looking at a very long sentence. If things begin to look bleak maybe he fee

Chase UK will soon bar customers from making cryptocurrency transactions

Chase UK, JP Morgan's British digital bank, says it will bar customers from making cryptocurrency transactions starting next month citing an uptick in scams and fraud. From October 16 onward, Chase customers will no longer be able to make crypto transactions using their debit card or through an outgoing bank transfer, the bank said Tuesday. If we think you're making a payment related to crypto assets, we'll decline it, Chase said in an email to customers. If you'd still like to invest in crypto assets, you can try using a different bank or provider instead but please be cautious, as you may not be able to get the money back if the payment ends up being related to fraud or a scam. In an email to The Associated Press, Chase said that Tuesday's decision was made to help keep customers and their money safe. The bank also pointed to increases in crypto fraud-related losses reported by UK regulators in the last year. According to London-based law firm RPC, data from Britain's fraud ...

Real estate fractional ownership mkt touches Rs 4,000 cr, to grow at 25-30%

Fractional ownership of real estate is gradually gaining acceptance among investors as assets under management have touched Rs 4,000 crore, according to a report. TruBoard Partners, a tech-enabled real asset management company, has come out with a report on fractional ownership. Many private companies have set up fractional ownership platforms that allow investors to own a fraction of real estate assets. "Fractional ownership typically involves the ownership of an underlying real estate asset among multiple investors. This lowers capital requirements and facilitates participation of a larger set of players in real estate asset ownership," the report said. Investors infuse their fund in securities issued by a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), established by the fractional ownership platform. These platforms provide a formal channel that enables a group of people to pool in money and jointly own real estate. "Although the concept of fractional ownership of real estate is at a nascent
