What is OneCoin?

⚠️ FRAUD — THE LARGEST CRYPTOCURRENCY SCAM IN HISTORY. OneCoin defrauded investors of an estimated $4-25 billion worldwide between 2014-2017. Founded by Ruja Ignatova ("Cryptoqueen"), who disappeared in 2017 and remains a fugitive. The FBI offers a $5 million reward for information leading to her arrest (increased from $250K in June 2024). OneCoin was never a real cryptocurrency — there was no blockchain.

Frequently Asked Questions About OneCoin

Is OneCoin a real cryptocurrency?
No. OneCoin was never a real cryptocurrency. There was no blockchain — it was entirely fabricated. Victims were sold "educational packages" that came with fake coins stored on a centralized database controlled by OneCoin. The coins could never be traded on real exchanges.
Where is Ruja Ignatova (the Cryptoqueen) now?
Ruja Ignatova disappeared in October 2017 after being secretly indicted by US authorities. She has not been seen publicly since. The FBI increased its reward for information leading to her arrest to $5 million in June 2024. She was placed on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list.
How much money did OneCoin steal?
Estimates range from $4 billion to $25 billion stolen from an estimated 3 million victims in 175 countries between 2014-2017. It is widely considered the largest cryptocurrency fraud in history. Many victims lost their entire life savings.
Can OneCoin victims get their money back?
Recovering funds is extremely difficult. Some asset recovery efforts are ongoing through court proceedings in the UK and other jurisdictions. A UK court issued worldwide freezing orders on Ignatova's assets in August 2024. Most victims are unlikely to recover significant funds.
