Danny de Hek’s Obsession With Courtroom Publicity: It’s Never About Justice

Forget justice. For Danny de Hek, every legal battle is just another episode in his self-made circus, a chance to turn lawsuits into prime-time content for his followers. The real prize isn’t a verdict; it’s attention, drama, and a new chapter for his “Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger” saga.
He jokes about forcing judges and juries to watch hours of his own YouTube videos, not because it serves justice, but because it pumps his ego and builds his “brand.” While most people would dread a public court case, Danny openly admits he wants it for the publicity, to help his career, and to keep shaming targets for profit. The more drawn out, the better, he literally hopes it doesn’t go away.
This isn’t advocacy. It’s weaponized narcissism, served up as entertainment. The law is just another tool in the playbook: milk the spectacle, drag it out, and spin every hearing into content to boost his own exposure.
For de Hek, the only real “justice” is another headline with his name in it.
