FOUND: Ed seizes crypto assets worth about 90 crore in e nugget case - You Need To See This

The Enforcement Directorate has taken possession of frozen crypto assets worth close to ₹ 90 crore, earlier kept in 70 accounts maintained with Binance, ZebPay, and WazirX. This is in connection with a money laundering case involving online gaming app ‘E-Nugget’, the agency said on Tuesday. The assets have been transferred to the agency’s crypto wallet.

The ED alleges that the E-Nugget app, masquerading as a gaming platform, promised users high returns on investments. Properties worth more than ₹ 163 crore, comprising cash, crypto currencies, account balances, and office space, have been attached, seized, or frozen in the case so far.
