Krstijan Krstic founded Start Options and Bitcoiin2Gen, or B2G, in 2017 and reportedly induced U.S. investors into the scam, authorities said.
Kristijan Krstic and John DeMarr also allegedly operated and promoted Start Options as a digital asset mining and trading platform with “the largest Bitcoin exchange in euro volume and liquidity.”
Seagal had accepted $250,000 in cash and $750,000 equivalent in B2G tokens for promoting the Bitcoiin2Gen ICO.
It has the makings of a Steven Seagal action film, but his much publicized and vaunted cryptocurrency called Bitcoiin—yes, with two i's—doesn’t appear to be going anywhere soon.
