According to Livecoins, Brazil’s Superior Court of Justice has rejected the release application of “Bitcoin Pharaoh” associate Mirelis Yoseline Diaz Zerpa. The court documents state that Zerpa previously fled to the United States for nearly 4 years, before being deported back to Brazil and arrested due to visa issues. The federal prosecution investigation also tracked her related wallets and accounts on international exchanges, showing cryptocurrency transactions totaling approximately $3.95 million in January 2025. Given that her ability to access large amounts of cryptocurrency assets poses a serious money laundering risk, the court decided to maintain her preventive detention.
