The DOJ case page for Douver Braga, updated 28 September 2026, lists trial for 8 March 2027 after an earlier September 2026 date was continued. That future date is a schedule, not a finding of guilt. The criminal case and the SEC's November 2022 civil allegations should be tracked separately. Historical bitcoin valuations in the earlier release are not current prices.
