The securities class action alleges that Silvergate and certain of its senior executives misled investors by failing to disclose that Silvergate, which provides payments, lending, and funding solutions for digital currency companies and investors, did not have adequate controls for detecting and preventing money laundering and failing to disclose that the Silvergate platform was used to launder more than $425 million.
On November 15, 2022, research firm Marcus Aurelius Value tweeted that subpoenaed Silvergate bank records suggested that over $425 million had been laundered using the Silvergate platform. On this news, the price of Silvergate Class A common stock fell $6.13 per share, or 17.27%, from its closing price of $35.49 on November 14, 2022, to close at $29.36 on November 15, 2022, on elevated trading volume.
On November 17, 2022, the newsletter The Bear Cave published an article about multiple companies with potential negative exposure to the FTX cryptocurrency exchange collapse.
