U.S. Seizes $84M From Accounts Linked to Tether and Bitfinex

U.S. authorities have seized about $84 million from Wells Fargo and JPMorgan accounts linked to payments firm Capstone, which prosecutors accuse of illegally moving hundreds of millions of dollars for Tether and Bitfinex through Caribbean bank EQIBank.

Tether and Bitfinex said they were customers of EQIBank but had no knowledge of Capstone’s alleged misconduct.
