Lithuanian Court Dismisses €23M Crypto Mining Case Over Botched Translations
- —Prosecutors alleged the group fraudulently obtained €23M in mining gear and demanded €700K in crypto
- —Court found Chinese-language evidence was translated by non-certified automated tools
- —German's surname was rendered as "Vokietija," Lithuanian for "Germany"
- —German was detained in 2024 and released in early 2026 on €1M bail
Why it matters: The collapse of the case could expose the Lithuanian state to a rare, large-scale compensation claim from German.
