Polish police have seized $11.6 million from DasCoin in a response to an alleged ponzi scheme.

The department is currently working on figuring out the perpetrators of the scam along with the ponzi scheme. Once that has been established it would then move on to figuring out which specific elements of the Polish Criminal Code that were violated by the scam.
Currently, no information exists in regard to what is going to be done with the $11.6 million dollars that have been seized or with the founders and promoters of DasCoin. However, an announcement has been released by the prosecutor’s office explaining some details about the case which states, “The district prosecutor in Warsaw on September 21, 2018, has been investigating under the reference number PO III DS 176.2018 regarding bringing in from September 2016.
