A Florida man with ties to an illegal Bitcoin exchange that was allegedly used by hackers who targeted companies including JPMorgan Chase & Co. is scheduled to plead guilty to undisclosed charges Thursday.
U.S. prosecutors asked a judge in New York to hold a hearing for Michael Murgio, the father of the bitcoin exchange operator, Anthony Murgio. Michael Murgio’s lawyer, Stuart Kaplan, confirmed his client intends to plead guilty at the hearing.
