first_img The Polish prosecutor's office has filed charges against the fifth suspect in the Zondacrypto case

According to CoinDesk, the Polish prosecutor's office has charged Roman Ż., a former business partner of the missing BitBay/Zondacrypto founder Sylwester Suszek, with two counts, including fraud.Roman Ż. was arrested last Saturday in the Silesia region of Poland, and his lawyer stated that he had assisted in managing the exchange before BitBay was renamed Zonda. Roman Ż. denies the charges and has provided a detailed statement to investigators, with police seizing valuable watches and documents related to Zondacrypto during the search.The prosecutor's office stated that the arrest was ordered due to concerns that Roman Ż. would flee upon learning of plans to travel to China, with his lawyer describing the trip as a business trip and stating that he held a return ticket for September 13. The court will decide whether to continue detaining Roman Ż. during the investigation.Previously, BitBay was renamed Zondacrypto in 2021, and the exchange ceased trading in April, following customer withdrawal freezes, with estimated losses of at least 35 million zlotys (approximately 9.4 million USD). The Estonian Financial Intelligence Unit partially suspended the license of the brand entity BB Trade Estonia OÜ. The Polish prosecutor's office has launched an investigation into suspected large-scale fraud and money laundering, receiving over 3,600 complaints as of June.The case is also related to Suszek's disappearance in March 2022, with the prosecutor's office merging the Zondacrypto investigation with the Suszek missing person case in August.

Apple faces a $2.7 billion class action lawsuit: accused of unfair application tracking rules against third-party developers, gaining improper advantages in its own advertising ecosystem

According to a report by Reuters, Apple Inc. is facing a class-action lawsuit in London, with claims amounting to £2 billion (approximately $2.7 billion). The lawsuit was filed today in the London Competition Appeal Tribunal by Ann Pope, a former senior official of the UK's Competition and Markets Authority, representing app developers.The core allegation is that Apple's "App Tracking Transparency" (ATT) feature, launched in 2021, imposes stricter restrictions on third-party developers than on its own services, giving Apple's own advertising ecosystem an unfair competitive advantage. Ann Pope stated that Apple's policies "have caused very significant harm to businesses that rely on Apple as a gatekeeper."Since its launch, the ATT feature has been a focal point of concern for global regulators for several years. Apple's official stance is that the feature is designed to allow users to control whether to permit apps to track their activities across other companies and websites.However, the plaintiffs argue that the actual enforcement of this rule has a double standard—tracking requests from third-party apps require strict pop-up authorization, while Apple's own personalized ads and services can bypass the same restrictions. This lawsuit represents the latest legal challenge Apple faces regarding its ATT policy and is the first large-scale private antitrust lawsuit initiated in the UK market against Apple's app ecosystem rules following scrutiny from regulators in the EU, the US, and several other countries.

The UK's first cryptocurrency tax report shows that 240 people declared £717 million in capital gains

The UK government has released the first official statistics on taxable crypto asset gains, revealing that in the 2024-25 tax year, 240 individuals reported capital gains exceeding £1 million, totaling £717 million, which accounts for more than half of the total £1.38 billion reported by 17,600 individuals. The HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) stated that 17,600 individuals reported crypto asset disposal gains of £13.8 billion, with taxable gains of £1.38 billion, averaging about £78,000 per person; of these, approximately 87% were male and 13% were female.Selling, exchanging, consuming tokens, or gifting assets to others may trigger tax obligations. HMRC has sent out 81,000 crypto tax letters in the past 12 months, an increase of 25% from about 65,000 letters, approaching the 27,714 letters sent in the 2023-24 tax year. James Murray, the Financial Secretary to the Treasury and Director of Payments, stated that crypto asset gains are subject to tax just like other gains. The UK plans to adjust the tax treatment of certain DeFi transactions starting from April 6, 2027, with related lending and liquidity pool transactions typically deferring capital gains tax until an economic disposal occurs, expected to affect about 700,000 individuals. HMRC estimates that its crypto tax compliance and education activities have generated an additional £168 million in capital gains tax for the 2024-25 fiscal year.

240 cryptocurrency asset taxpayers in the UK reported £717 million in capital gains, accounting for more than half of the total

The UK's HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) stated that for the 2024 to 2025 tax year, 240 individuals each reported capital gains from crypto assets exceeding £1 million, totaling £717 million, accounting for more than half of the total. The capital gains of all 17,600 filers amounted to £1.38 billion, with disposals totaling £13.8 billion. Taxpayers reporting capital gains below £25,000 accounted for 65%, contributing only 7% of the capital gains and 8% of the disposals.Among crypto asset taxpayers, 54% are aged between 25 and 44, and 81% are under 54; males account for 87%, contributing 93% of the capital gains. The UK is advancing regulation based on the OECD crypto asset reporting framework, requiring trading service providers to provide customer information to tax authorities, with HMRC set to start receiving relevant data in 2027; service providers failing to comply will face fines of up to £300 per user. James Murray, Financial Secretary to the Treasury, stated that capital gains from crypto assets are subject to tax just like other capital gains. The UK Treasury plans to defer capital gains tax on DeFi lending and assets deposited into liquidity pools until the actual disposal of the assets. For the 2025 to 2026 tax year, capital gains exceeding the tax-free allowance must be reported by January 31, 2027.
