Andrea Zanon, a finance expert who was an advisor to the World Bank and former U.S. President Bill Clinton, was arrested a few days ago in Spain on charges of being involved in a cryptocurrency scam.

According to information released by the Europapress news agency, Zanon was detained by Spain's Civil Guard as he was about to board a flight that would take him from Barcelona to the United Nations Climate Change Conference in the United Arab Emirates.
Judge Joaquín Gadea decided to send him to prison on bail, as allegedly responsible for a pyramid scheme through a cryptocurrency investment platform identified as Nimbus. He is accused of the alleged crimes of aggravated fraud, money laundering and criminal organization.
According to the investigations carried out by the Spanish authorities, Zanon is considered to be the main promoter of Nimbus Platform, at the time of its inception in 2020. It is said that the financial expert was one of the figures who presented himself as a trusted brand of the project, from which he later dissociated himself.
