The CFTC alleged that between July 2017 and December 2017, Gemini made inaccurate claims about whether its proposed Bitcoin futures contract would be “readily susceptible to manipulation.” Additionally, the lawsuit highlighted that Gemini engaged in undisclosed fee arrangements with specific market participants, such as market makers. These arrangements, designed to boost trading in Gemini’s Auction, were not disclosed to all customers or made available on the company’s website. Under the terms of the settlement, Gemini agreed to pay a $5 million penalty and refrain from making false or misleading statements to the CFTC in the future. While agreeing to the settlement, Gemini neither admitted nor denied the allegations.
