Australian regulators have taken civil action against Liang Allan Guo, a former director of Blockchain Global, for alleged breaches of corporate duties tied to the failure of crypto exchange ACX. The platform abruptly halted customer withdrawals in late 2019, leaving A$58 million ($37.3 million) in unsecured creditor claims.

ASIC’s lawsuit centers on Guo’s handling of client funds and record-keeping failures. Liquidators from Pitcher Partners traced the disappearance of digital assets, prompting the January 2024 investigation. The case underscores growing regulatory scrutiny of crypto exchanges following investor losses.
