Greek prosecutors have accused a cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme of defrauding approximately 10,000 investors of $8 million, with nine suspects including two active soldiers questioned by an investigating judge. Police arrested 17 individuals linked to the organization, which allegedly operated through controlled platforms and recruited participants via a local civic group in Katerini. A 44-year-old leader of the Katerini AI enthusiasts association was remanded in custody, while six others were released on bail ranging from €15,000 to €20,000. Investigators estimate the scheme collected €2 million from 1,842 members in Katerini alone, encouraging standard investments of at least €800 and VIP contributions of €5,000 with promises that funds would double. The allegations have not yet been heard in court, and current figures are based on police estimates rather than formal charging documents.
