CoinSpot Founder Sues Ex-Employee Over $478K Theft | Australia News

from Australia News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

CoinSpot’s billionaire founder Russell Wilson is suing a former customer support employee for allegedly stealing nearly half a million dollars over two years — a fresh blow to the crypto giant already bruised by a past $40 million heist. Despite that dark chapter, CoinSpot raked in $270 million profit last year, with Wilson and his family worth $1.6 billion. The fired employee, Iresh Perera, hasn’t responded publicly, while CoinSpot insists its systems are secure and customer funds untouched. The case heads to court in September, adding another twist to Australia’s most high-stakes crypto saga. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
