🚀 Genius Group Faces Court Restrictions on Stock Sales and Bitcoin Purchases

According to Odaily, Genius Group, a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, has been prohibited by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York from selling stocks to raise funds and from using investor money to purchase Bitcoin. Consequently, the company will be compelled to sell the Bitcoin held in its treasury.

On October 30, 2024, Genius initiated arbitration proceedings to terminate its asset purchase agreement with Fatbrain AI (LZGI). In response, LZGI shareholders filed a lawsuit against LZGI and its executives, Michael Moe and Peter Ritz. On February 14 of this year, Moe and Ritz sought a temporary restraining order (TRO) and a preliminary injunction (PI) from the court to prevent Genius from selling any shares or raising funds to buy Bitcoin. The TRO was approved on the same day, and the preliminary injunction was granted on March 13.

🚀 Federal Judge Halts Arizona's Arraignment of Kalshi Over Prediction Market Contracts

A federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order preventing Arizona from proceeding with the arraignment of Kalshi on 20 criminal charges related to its prediction market contracts. According to NS3.AI, District Judge Michael Liburdi ruled that Arizona cannot conduct Kalshi's arraignment scheduled for Monday, April 13. The order prohibits Arizona from applying its gambling laws to contracts listed on designated contract markets regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The CFTC, which has filed a lawsuit against Arizona and two other states, contends that these event contracts are considered swaps under federal oversight.
