Ontario 'Crypto King' Gets Kidnapped Over $740K Loss — Plot Twist You Didn't See Coming



So here's the tea: Aiden Pleterski, who literally called himself the "crypto king," just got snatched by five guys, and one of them (Akil Heywood) claimed to have lost $740K to this guy. The wild part? A video surfaced showing Pleterski bruised up, basically confessing that he yolo'd nearly $45M of investor money into crypto right before the 2021 crash. 💀

But wait, it gets worse. A bankruptcy report exposed that out of $40M+ from investors, Pleterski only threw in $670K (2%) himself. The rest? Private jets, luxury vacations, Lambos. You know, the usual "I'm not actually managing your money" energy.

Now he's tangled up in a year-long bankruptcy case while facing kidnapping charges. Moral of the story: Anyone calling themselves a "king" in crypto should probably trigger your scam alarm. This is exactly why you never give your money to someone with "crypto influencer" energy.
