The co-founder of cryptocurrency-inspired Ponzi scheme OneCoin faces charges of fraud and money laundering in her absence - but will now become a movie star.

OneCoin drama plans to "Get the word out".

Now, New Regency Television will turn the podcast into a full-fledged television drama.

"Hope it continues to get word out about OneCoin around the world," producer and co-writer, Georgia Catt, tweeted following the news.

As Cointelegraph reported, Ignatova is currently in hiding as prosecutors indict her and her brother, Konstantin Ignatov, on multiple counts of fraud and money laundering.

OneCoin defrauded investors of around $5 billion in total, Cointelegraph raising suspicions about its activities as far back as 2015.Ponzi scheme suspicions linger in crypto.

This year, OneCoin's successes remain pertinent to cryptocurrency participants, as skepticism mounts around other operations which have raised red flags for many.

In January, Cointelegraph noted that a single HEX token was worth less than a single Bitcoin satoshi, an unenviable accolade it retains to this day.

Richard Heart, the self-styled creator of Hex, denies accusations that the project is in any way dishonest.
