Blanche Crypto Probe Dropped Amid Investment Concerns
The US Department of Justice's Inspector General has reportedly declined to take further action on a matter involving Todd Blanche, the state attorney general. The issue surrounds allegations that Blanche may have intervened in cryptocurrency investigations while he was invested in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The move comes as Blanche faces scrutiny over his potential conflict of interest in handling crypto-related cases. As reported earlier, there were questions raised about Blanche's involvement in scuttling certain investigations when he had investments in the same assets.
