Why Lana Rhoades Went To Prison?
Lana landed in prison as a teen living in Chicago. However, she is happy about it. Lana suffered from a traumatic event, which they did not open up about, and landed in the wrong company. She used to assist her spoiled boyfriend and his friends, older than her, in breaking into houses and robbing them.
Lana was the only girl in the gang. They used to fit into the windows as she was small enough to get through. Then, Lana used to get into the houses, open the doors, and let the gang get in to commit robbery. However, she did not get anything from those robberies. Meanwhile, Lana got abducted by the hippie mafia and had to work as a stripper for the bad group.
Lana used to consume heroin and do hardcore drugs. She also got arrested for the same more than 20 times and sent to the juvenile home for 12 months. She used to write love letters and get involved in intimate acts with her fellow females despite having a boyfriend before she landed in the juvenile home.
Lana was not fond of getting physically closer to other women, but the atmosphere in the juvenile home introduced her to those things. Gradually, it became a norm there.
Finally, Lana landed up in prison for the robberies. Though her boyfriend, who also landed in prison, was responsible for her landing in prison. But, he did not contact or write to her during that period. Thus, she decided not to let a man rule her life. Lana did not return to the bad group when her sentence got over. Instead, she changed herself.
Lana stayed away from crime and hardly consumed liquor or drugs after getting out. Instead of working for someone else, she joined the adult film industry to earn for herself. When she looks at her past, she finds that prison has been a life-changing experience in her life.

Lana Rhoades And The NFT Project
Lana started promoting the Binance Smart Chain decentralized cryptocurrency, PAWGcoin, in 2020, that got launched in 2022 (we are not at all promoting PAWGcoin here). Lana made off $1.5M with the project that contains her animated images.
Lana sold it to the investors, calling it a valuable investment. The investors can later sell the project at a higher price once the value of her NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens) project, Cryptosis, increases. The value of the project will also grow if a few more models sign for it. Lana recommended the investors wait till the value of ‘Cryptosis’ increases as it is only the beginning.
Lana left the project with her $1.5M after a week. On the other hand, the trapped investors are struggling to sell their assets as their values decrease. One investor posted about his struggle to sell the asset and related worries on the project’s channel, and Lana gave an aggressive reply.
It depicts a scam where the scammers make the prospective investors invest in their assets and disappear with the amount. Finally, the investors get left with nothing. Meanwhile, the project continues to appear legitimate. The scam got noticed by the American Crypto Journalist and YouTuber, Coffeezilla.
