It is interesting that the cryptocurrency in question is not named (simply referred to as "Cryptocurrency-1").

Possibly because there are ongoing investigations about it? If this was bitcoin, they would likely state that.

It being eth would seem to match their narrative he was an expert. Maybe it was eth hence their narrative or maybe they redacted it for not being eth.
