Roni Cohen-Pavon, the former Chief Revenue Officer of Celsius, has agreed to forfeit $1.07 million ahead of his sentencing, according to court filings by U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton. Cohen-Pavon, who pleaded guilty to fraud and conspiracy charges related to manipulating the price of Celsius's CEL token, is set to be sentenced this Thursday. Prosecutors have not recommended a specific sentence but have highlighted his "substantial assistance" in the case.
The forfeiture amount is linked to proceeds from Cohen-Pavon's criminal activities. Any cash or crypto assets he has already paid in connection with the Celsius bankruptcy may be credited toward this amount, as per the filings.
