Estonia has approved the extradition of Ivan Turogin and Sergey Potapenko to the U.S.
They are the creators of the HashFlare pyramid scheme and were arrested in November 2022.
In those days, the U.S. Department of Justice said that Tugorin and Potapenko tricked victims into signing equipment lease contracts with the HashFlare mining service provider and investing in the Polybius cryptobank.
The amount of the scam amounted to approximately $575 million.
