As deliberations entered their second day in a criminal trial over a $25 million exploit, jurors asked for clarification on previous testimony and the definition of “good faith.”
The jury deciding the fate of two men accused of money laundering and fraud related to a $25 million exploit of the Ethereum blockchain has submitted a series of detailed questions to the judge as they deliberate, indicating a close scrutiny of key points in the case.
On Wednesday, jurors in the criminal trial of Anton and James Peraire-Bueno began deliberating over a verdict after three weeks of hearing differing theories of the case from defense attorneys and US prosecutors.
The brothers stand accused of using maximal extractable value (MEV) bots to extract about $25 million in digital assets from the Ethereum blockchain in 2023, in what prosecutors describe as a fraudulent scheme.
