The Bulgarian company still owns the page, but at the press time, the EurID domain name registrar has suspended the server due to an investigation. What kind of investigation is meant is still unknown.
One Academy and One World Foundation sites also went offline. Of the web pages affiliated with the pyramid, only OneLife remains available, where the sale of fake coins continues.
They need to get the OneLife site offline too. This is where the accounts are which show people’s coin balance. Its ongoing existence allows for ‘scams-within-a-scam’ – people selling OneCoin to new investors for cash, without the head office being involved.

Recall, earlier, OneCoin lawyer Mark Scott was found guilty of laundering $ 400 million and bank fraud. He faces up to 50 years in prison in the United States.
The closest ally of OneCoin founder Sebastian Greenwood was extradited to the United States last year, but after that, there was no news of his trial. He was probably placed on the federal witness protection program for testifying against the powerful patrons of the pyramid.
The founder’s brother Konstantin Ignatov pleaded guilty to money laundering and other crimes as part of a deal with the US prosecutor’s office. He faces up to 90 years in prison.
