Odaily Planet Daily reports that Venezuelan police have arrested Rosa María González, a suspect in the Generación Zoe scam case, in San Cristóbal. The scam resulted in investor losses of at least $120 million. Leonardo Cositorto, head of Generación Zoe, previously stated that Rosa María González escaped with 611 Bitcoins after the project’s collapse in mid-2022, worth approximately $56 million at the time. Investigations show that Generación Zoe attracted investors by promising returns of up to 7.5%, but was actually a Ponzi scheme. Rosa María González claimed that the trading algorithm she developed had quantum-safe features, with monthly returns of up to 70%. During her escape from Venezuela, she allegedly planned a new scam project, promising a minimum investment of $1000 and a monthly return of 5%. Currently, diplomatic relations between Argentina and Venezuela are tense, and extradition procedures face difficulties.

CryptoQuant: BTC’s April rally was driven by perpetual futures, warning of correction risks
The study said that in April, Bitcoin’s price was driven by perpetual contract longs, while spot demand remained weak. The rise increased from $66k to $79k, about 20%. The structure was similar to the early stages of the 2022 bear market. The research director warned that unless spot demand turns positive, it would be difficult to sustainably break above $79k, and correction risk is rising. The bull market score index fell from 50 to 40; spot “apparent” demand has stayed negative, suggesting that the rally may be driven by leverage rather than new buying.
