just saw that Konstantin Ignatov got released from prison this year. he was the brother of that Cryptoqueen involved in the OneCoin scam - you know, that $4 billion fraud that basically everyone fell for. wild part is he already spent 34 months inside, so he's done. apparently he took over running the whole thing after his sister disappeared in 2017 and became the de facto leader of the scheme. the guy even lied on the witness stand about ditching his laptop in Vegas, which is pretty crazy. what's interesting about Konstantin Ignatov's case is how many people got caught up in this. his co-conspirator Mark Scott got 10 years for laundering $400 million. Karl Sebastian Greenwood, one of the main guys pushing OneCoin, got 20 years and made like $300 million off it before getting busted. even the head of legal and compliance pleaded guilty. but the Cryptoqueen herself? still missing since 2017. she's on the FBI's most wanted list, and there are rumors some drug lord might have killed her back in 2018. honestly the whole OneCoin thing is one of those crypto stories that just gets wilder the more you dig into it
