A second trial may be on the horizon for Anton and James Peraire-Bueno, two brothers accused of manipulating digital assets to exploit a $25 million Ethereum blockchain flaw. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York filed a request for a retrial in late February or early March 2026. This follows an initial mistrial declared after jurors failed to reach a verdict. The brothers were charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy to receive stolen property. These charges stem from their alleged use of MEV bots to exploit digital assets in 2023. The case is significant due to potential implications for Ethereum trading practices.
