According to authorities, Kundra is suspected of receiving 285 bitcoins, currently valued at around INR 1.5 billion (USD 19.5 million), from Amit Bhardwaj, the mastermind behind the alleged INR 60 billion (USD 768 million) Bitcoin Ponzi scheme known as "Gain Bitcoin." These bitcoins were allegedly intended to be used for the establishment of a Bitcoin mining farm in Ukraine.

The investigation revealed that Singapore-based firm Variable Tech Pte Ltd, allegedly operated by Bhardwaj, lured investors from across India with promises of high returns on investments in Bitcoin mining. However, the investors never received the promised returns, and the collected bitcoins were allegedly diverted to several companies set up overseas, including those linked to Kundra.

"ED's investigation has established that Raj Kundra received 285 bitcoins from the promoter of Gain Bitcoin Ponzi Scam, Amit Bhardwaj, for setting up a Bitcoin mining farm in Ukraine," an ED official stated. "As per the scheme, the investors were assured 10% monthly returns in the form of bitcoins. However, the collected bitcoins were siphoned off and concealed in obscure online wallets."

The ED's seizure of Shetty and Kundra's properties represents a significant step in the ongoing investigation into the Bitcoin Ponzi scheme.
