Steven Seagal
Like a few other notable celebrities on this list, Steven Seagal’s foray into the world of cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin wound up a resounding failure. Like many of his odd films, Seagal’s crypto ventures were dubbed “bizarre” at best, and a “pyramid scheme” at worst.
Seagal found himself investing in crypto ICOs in 2018, specifically Bitcooin2Gen in January of that year. Seagal was named Brand Ambassador to the company and helped promote its crypto schemes online to his widespread social media following.
Seagal wound up parting ways with the company after the Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance Securities Division warned consumers about the project, which appeared to offer unregistered securities.
