The $50M Ponzi That Paid Lawyers First

In this episode, we explore the dark side of crypto fraud through the lens of a $50 million Ponzi scheme that operated for three decades. Discover how the system prioritized lawyers over victims, illustrating a troubling trend in bankruptcy courts and asset liquidation. Comparing this scheme with recent crypto collapses, such as FTX, we unveil the similarities in how early liquidation of digital assets translates into massive losses for investors. Join Chip Mahoney as he connects traditional fraud with modern blockchain failings, revealing how the landscape of fraud evolves yet remains strikingly similar. Learn the invaluable lessons from these cases to protect your investments in the ever-changing world of crypto and technology.
