I just read that the U.S. Department of Justice has opened a compensation program for OneCoin victims. Basically, if you lost money buying OneCoin between 2014 and 2019, you can now request to get back some of what you lost. They have over $40 million available to distribute.
The crazy part is that OneCoin was one of the biggest pyramid schemes in history. Ruja Ignatova and Karl Greenwood created it in Bulgaria in 2014, and at one point, it appeared to be the second most valuable cryptocurrency in the world, but it was completely fake, the token had no real value. It is estimated that around 3.5 million people worldwide lost between $40 billion and $190 billion. Greenwood has been in prison since 2023 with a 20-year sentence, but Ignatova disappeared in 2017, and the FBI is still searching for her with a $5 million reward.
So if you were one of the victims of OneCoin, now is the time to file your claim. I guess many have already lost hope of recovering anything, but here is the opportunity.
