Bitcoin dealers charged in US
US authorities have filed criminal charges against two operators of a Bitcoin exchange, which enabled its users to buy drugs and other illicit goods on the Silk Road underground website.
Federal prosecutors said they unsealed a criminal complaint against Robert Faiella and Charlie Shrem, who ran a company allowing people to use cash to buy Bitcoins, a virtual currency which is based on a mysterious computer algorithm.
The two are charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering and running an unlicensed money transmitting business, according to a statement from the US Attorney’s office in New York.
