Could you elaborate on the most significant instance of cryptocurrency fraud that has been prosecuted to date? I'm particularly interested in the details surrounding the scale of the fraud, the perpetrators involved, and the impact it had on the cryptocurrency community and wider financial landscape. Was it a Ponzi scheme, a hacking incident, or another type of fraud? How much money was involved, and what were the legal consequences for those responsible? Understanding this landmark case could provide valuable insights into the risks and challenges in the cryptocurrency market.
