• Parker’s associates, Stephen Boys, Kelly Caton, and Jordan Robinson, were jailed for money laundering.
• The trio must repay $30 million within three months to avoid an additional 14-year sentence.
• The rise in Bitcoin’s price resulted in a $3.6 million surplus for CoinSpot after compensation.
• Luxury items and properties were seized from the fraudsters during the investigation.

The British fraudsters involved in exploiting a CoinSpot glitch must repay $30 million or face extended prison terms. The exchange has already recouped its losses due to Bitcoin’s price increase, with an extra $3.6 million distributed among authorities.
