A 24-year-old Dutch law student, once hailed as a “crypto genius,” has been arrested after allegedly scamming 300 people out of €4.5 million ($4.6 million) in a crypto pyramid scheme. The self-styled “crypto banker” fled into hiding last year when his scheme collapsed and, in a stunning twist, sought police protection from his angry victims. Authorities relocated him to a safe house, but new evidence presented by scammed investors led to his arrest. The aspiring lawyer is now facing justice for allegedly duping investors, including friends and family, while continuing to recruit even as his scheme imploded.
