The complaint alleges that Dynamic Ledger Solutions, Inc., Tezos Stiftung (also known as the Tezos Foundation), Kathleen Breitman, and Arthur Breitman engaged in an unregistered offering and sale of securities in violation of Sections 5, 12(a)(1) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. §§ 77e, 77l(a)(1) and 77o, and that the Tezos ICO was an offering and sale of "securities" to United States investors.  Defendants conducted the Tezos ICO without filing a Registration Statement or seeking an exemption from registration.  The lawsuit is seeking to recover the bitcoin and Ethereum contributed to the Tezos ICO, along with any corresponding appreciation in value of those invested assets, or the equivalent in monetary damages or restitution.

“We are focused on recovering the consideration paid by Tezos crowdfund investors, and to preserve these assets which have been shuttled away to Zug Switzerland,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.

Whistleblowers:  Persons with non-public information regarding the Tezos ICO should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC whistleblower program.  Under the new program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.  For more information, call Reed Kathrein at 510-725-3000 or email [email protected].
