First reaction, what the * is Bitzlato?
Can't find any volume stats on them, neither Coingecko or CMC are of any help here.

Anatoly Legkodymov, a Russian national living in China, was arrested in Miami on Tuesday on charges that he operated the exchange as an unlicensed money exchange business that "in his own words, catered to 'known crooks,'" a top Justice Department official said.

What the hell was he doing in Florida? Seriously, how can make such risky trips when you know what you're doing behind the counter, and being a Russian right now in the US involved in laundering money? Even if I were a perfectly clean owner of a Russian exchange I would not set foot in the US now!
