Ronaldinho is about to go to jail for cryptocurrencies

 


Ronaldinho :

is about to go to jail for cryptocurrencies


The world football landscape is in turmoil

and this time

  1. it's not about
  2. a controversial penalty
  3. or the usual drama on the pitch.


Ronaldinho

once the jewel of teams such as Paris Saint-Germain

Barcelona and AC Milan, finds himself in the middle of

a storm full of allegations, lost appearances and cryptocurrency conspiracies


It seems that

even Brazil's golden foot is not immune to controversy.

Because of a hierarchical scheme linked to one of

his companies

Ronaldinho was playing a dangerous dodgy game with the Brazilian Congress.


After ignoring two summonses to

testify :

Maestro stated soccer's questionable reason


However

doubts have been raised throughout the legislative chambers.


How many more opportunities will he get?

  1. Congressman Oreo Ribeiro points
  2. out that there may be another opportunity
  3. for Ronaldinho on August 31.


But if he chooses not to appear again

it may be that law enforcement forces appear on his doorstep afterwards

ensuring that he is confronted before the Congressional Committee.


  1. Brazilian law does
  2. not master words when it comes to
  3. those who have been called by Congress.


Brazilian law does not

master words when it comes to those who have been called by Congress.


It's simple:

they should come. For those considering a violation of this order

there is an elegant package of fines

and police escort awaiting direct guidance to the hearing they tried to evade.


And now you might be wondering why all this fuss?

What can drag a football legend into such a swamp?


  • It originated in a project called "18kRonaldinho."
  • This project allegedly has daily returns
  • exceeding 2% through cryptocurrency investments.


But the dream deteriorated :

when the company apparently failed to deliver on that promise.

The consequences were serious 

a massive lawsuit seeking compensation of up to $61 million.


As if this were not an adequate offence

  • this lawsuit has escalated, becoming a key focus of
  • a larger investigation into the mysterious depths of
  • cryptocurrency fraud within Brazil.


Ronaldinho's :

defenders are quick to

distance the star from the company's core operations.


They portray him as merely the "face" of the brand, an unintentional pawn

whose name and image have been manipulated without proper consent.


Interestingly

this is not Ronaldinho's only story with cryptocurrencies.


Last year

  • in a joint venture with INFLUXO
  • he entered the field of non-replaceable codes
  • (NFT) rapidly growing, unveiling his own collection.


But with

the increasing frequency of the cryptocurrency storm

Back in 2020, you may remember another controversy that

signed Ronaldinho and his brother Roberto de Assis into his company.


Their crime?

Possession of false passports

which cost them a stressful 170 days in a Paraguayan prison.

Complicating matters, Assis' name is

also widespread in current cryptocurrency investigations.


The coming days promise more discoveries

more drama :

and we hope there will be clarity on the extent of Ronaldinho's involvement.


The question remains:

Is their football hero really a victim

or is there a dark side to this once-beloved symbol?


Only time

perhaps Congress's long-awaited testimony, will reveal the truth.
