“Being an innovator in our capital markets is not a free pass to disregard Ontario securities law,” Jeff Kehoe, director of the enforcement branch at the OSC, said in a statement.

“These bans, together with other conditions, prohibit Diamond and Rostand from influencing the management of the Coinsquare platform for at least three years,” the OSC said in a statement late Tuesday after the settlement hearing. “These trades were created to inflate the trading volumes reported on the platform and had no economic substance,” according to the OSC.
