If you research that "expose" you will find that none of the outlaws mentioned in there ever were officers, directors or shareholders of BITCF with the exception of the former prime minister of Tajikistan.
Winick created like 50 shells and sold them to many crooks as well as innocent business men and women. After Central Asian became controlling shareholder things changed with BITCF and the officers and directors involved after getting into the Cryptocurrency business appear to be clean and some over qualified in cryptography and the math behind it.
Winick did not create BITCF as one of those 50 nor did he ever have anything to do with BITCF from my extensive research.
