The charges come after employees at the rapper\u2019s music studio discovered that some of Eminem\u2019s unreleased music was available on online platforms including Youtube and Reddit, triggering an FBI investigation, according to court documents.<\/p>\n<p>Strange is allegedly \u201cheavily involved\u201d with Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining, according to witnesses interviewed in the complaint, and would only accept payment for the music in cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>Strange faces up to five years in prison and a fine up to $250,000 if convicted on the charge of criminal copyright infringement. He faces a maximum penalty of up to 10 years in prison if convicted on the charge of interstate transportation of stolen goods.<\/p>\n<p>In 2002, a number of tracks on his \u201c<a
