Episode Details

Crypto for the Chosen: American Bitcoin Academy is an investigative account of a crypto education platform that leveraged trust, exclusivity, and the promise of artificial intelligence to funnel students into a hedge fund that never existed. What began as online training in digital assets quietly transformed into a closed-door investment pitch, where select participants were told they had been chosen for access to a private, AI-powered fund. Over time, withdrawals stalled, explanations collapsed, and one point two million dollars vanished, drawing the attention of federal regulators and exposing a scheme built on manufactured credibility.
