US bitcoin conman hit with $12m fine

I wonder when that order came down for Homero himself to pay or if they are referring to the default judgement against GAW and GAWminers? The article basically sucks.

I'm going by this article and others: http://www.coindesk.com/sec-wins-11-million-default-judgment-gaw-miners/ Notably, the decision did not include Garza. "The SEC's litigation continues against Garza," the agency said in its release.

This is the news release today that prompted all the articles. Old news basically.

Yep, I'm pretty sure it's just about the default judgment against the defunct companies. Garza's case is is still in progress although he has that other little issue to take care of too (FBI or something like that).

Fake news basically Grin
