A US bank executive is facing federal fraud charges after allegedly steering his institution into a years-long scheme that enriched friends, neighbors, and favored borrowers while concealing the truth from regulators and his own board.

Prosecutors say Danny Seibel, 54, the former president and CEO of the First National Bank of Lindsay, has been charged by a grand jury in the Western District of Oklahoma with conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, making false entries in the books and records of a financial institution, obstructing a financial examination and failing to implement required anti-money laundering safeguards.

According to the Department of Justice indictment, Seibel caused the bank to issue loans to certain customers, many of whom were personal acquaintances.

The loans were never repaid.

He then allegedly manipulated bank records to make these loans appear performing and healthy to both the bank’s board of directors and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the federal regulator responsible for supervising national banks.

Prosecutors say that Seibel repeatedly modified loan data and falsified reports to hide mounting overdrafts and bad loans, including providing false documentation during an OCC onsite inspection in the summer of 2024.

He is also accused of failing to file suspicious activity reports on his own conduct and advising customers to structure cash deposits below reporting thresholds to evade anti-money-laundering requirements mandated under the Bank Secrecy Act.

First National Bank of Lindsay was closed by regulators in October 2024 after deceptive and unsound practices depleted its capital, and a receiver was appointed.

If convicted on all counts, Seibel faces up to 30 years in prison and fines of up to $1 million, reflecting the federal government’s increasingly aggressive pursuit of financial crimes.

Strive and Semler Scientific to Merge in All-Stock Deal, Creating Bitcoin Treasury Powerhouse

Strive and Semler Scientific to Merge in All-Stock Deal, Creating Bitcoin Treasury Powerhouse

Strive, Inc. has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire healthcare infrastructure firm Semler Scientific, Inc. in an all-stock transaction. In an announcement, the firm said the merger represents an approximately 210% premium, equivalent to about $90.52 per share, based on the closing prices of both companies on September 19. Under the terms of the agreement, each common share of Semler Scientific will be exchanged for 21.05 Class A common shares of Strive. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies and remains subject to customary closing conditions. Bitcoin Treasury Strengthened with $675 Million Purchase In conjunction with the merger announcement, Strive reveals it has purchased 5,816 bitcoin at an average price of $116,047 per bitcoin, totaling $675 million. This acquisition increases Strive’s total holdings to 5,886 bitcoin. Following the merger, the combined company would own more than 10,900 bitcoin, excluding any additional purchases funded through future capital raises. Earlier this year, Semler Scientific said it is planning to accumulate 10,000 Bitcoin and targets 105,000 Bitcoin by 2027. The company appointed BTC expert Joe Burnett as Director of Bitcoin Strategy to help lead its ambitious plans Future Plans for Diagnostics Business While bitcoin holdings remain central to the merger, the combined company also intends to explore options to monetize or distribute Semler Scientific’s profitable diagnostics business. The strategy includes expanding into preventative diagnostics, focusing on early detection of chronic diseases and broader wellness initiatives. This dual approach aims to balance financial growth through bitcoin accumulation with mission-driven expansion in healthcare. Strive’s management and board of directors will continue to lead the merged entity, with Semler Scientific’s Executive Chairman Eric Semler joining the board post-closing. Leadership Views on the Transaction “This merger cements Strive’s position as a top Bitcoin treasury company. We believe our capital structure and strategies position us to outperform bitcoin over the long run,” said Matt Cole, Chairman and CEO of Strive. “This merger creates significant value for our stockholders by delivering a substantial premium and direct participation in one of the most innovative bitcoin strategies in the public markets,” said Eric Semler from Semler Scientific, Inc. With unanimous board approval and strong alignment on strategy, the merger is positioned to create a scaled, innovative bitcoin acquisition platform while expanding into preventative healthcare
