Richard Kim, a former executive at Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Galaxy Digital, was indicted on April 15, 2025, for securities and wire fraud related to the misappropriation of approximately $4 million in investor funds. These funds were intended for his blockchain-based online casino startup, Zero Edge, but prosecutors allege Kim redirected the money for personal gambling and trading activities. Kim, 39, faces charges from federal authorities for gambling away the investor money while running the company. In a separate case, the Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission have charged two individuals in connection with a $275 million Ponzi scheme involving water vending machines.
