Well, McAfee used to shill many scam projects in the crypto space. Whenever he did that unknowingly or not, we cannot tell with certainty. So many people lost money by investing in scam projects endorsed by McAfee. Despite his wild and crazy behavior within the crypto space, he has gathered a large number of supporters in such a short amount of time.

As far as his arrest goes, I think it's justifiable. It was his responsibility to pay taxes from his crypto income in order to comply with the law. Exchanging crypto to Fiat doesn't make you exempt from a country's taxation laws. Now he has to face fines or even jail time because of tax evasion. May this be a lesson to all of us crypto enthusiasts, to always pay our taxes when we sell crypto for cash (Fiat). As long as you're a law-abiding citizen, there should be nothing to worry about. I hope Mr. McAfee could make amends with the government in exchange for his liberty. Whatever happens in the long run, this negative event is certainly a huge blow to the entire crypto/Blockchain space. Just my opinion
