This is all because of a $2.5m BTC sale…

This guy scammed around 150,000 people, pulled in $130M+, showed investors a Bitcoin mining farm… then fled the country and lived like a king.
Mehmet Aydın, known as “Tosuncuk,” launched Çiftlik Bank in 2016 and marketed it as a virtual farming game where users bought digital livestock for daily profit. Early withdrawals worked smoothly, which created massive trust and pulled tens of thousands of new users into the system.
As doubts began to rise in 2018, he played his strongest card. In a video sent to investors, he showcased rows of Bitcoin mining machines inside what looked like a poultry facility, claiming millions had been invested and the platform was backed by real crypto production.
But investigators later concluded the core cash flow still depended largely on new user deposits.
Then the music stopped.
Withdrawals froze.
Accounts locked.
And Aydın quietly left the country.
While users were stuck, reports placed him in Uruguay buying a luxury villa, a yacht, and a Ferrari, fueling the scandal even further.
For years he remained a ghost under an Interpol notice.
Then in 2021… he walked into a Turkish consulate in Brazil and surrendered himself.
Courts later ruled the operation a massive Ponzi scheme and handed down 45,000+ years in cumulative sentences.
Virtual farms.
Bitcoin promises.
Very real losses.

We are seeing massive sui:native outflows on-chain, flooding into CEXs at a volume we haven't witnessed in over a year. The last time we saw a CEX inflow spike like this was Jan 13, 2024. Back then, sui:native was trading at ~$1.80 before dumping below $0.90 just a month later.
