Episode Details

Community Targeted: A Three Hundred Million Dollar Latino Crypto Ponzi examines how a crypto investment program, promoted as safe and community-focused, spread through Latino neighborhoods using trust, language, and familiarity as its foundation. Built on regulatory filings and court records, the story traces how promises of steady returns and financial inclusion masked a structure that allegedly depended on new investor money to survive. Told in a forensic, non-sensational voice, the narrative focuses on systems, timelines, and consequences rather than spectacle, showing how opportunity language can become a tool of harm when oversight and transparency disappear.
