On January 8, 2026, Slovenia’s Securities Market Agency (ATVP) issued a securities fraud warning against One Ecosystem / OES / OneCoin, citing its website oneecosystem.eu for providing crypto-asset and financial services without required authorization. The warning references violations of EU Regulation 2023/1114 (MiCA) and Slovenia’s Market in Financial Instruments Act. ATVP urges investors to exercise “extreme caution” and consider the warning before engaging.

OneCoin’s Infamous Ponzi Legacy

OneCoin, founded by Ruja Ignatova, collapsed in 2017 after defrauding investors of over $4B through an MLM crypto Ponzi. Ignatova, indicted in 2019, remains on the FBI Most Wanted list. Rebooted as One Ecosystem, the scheme shifted to a pyramid model, fronted by Ventsislav Zlatkov until his February 2025 exit. Now located by an International Global Council including Mai Loan, Tommi Vuorinen, and others, One Ecosystem targets Thailand (21%), Malaysia (15%), and South Korea (15%), with 34,400 monthly visits as of December 2025.

Regulatory Scrutiny and Global Warnings

The ATVP warning aligns with EU MiCA enforcement, requiring crypto-asset service providers to hold licenses. OneCoin’s history includes U.S. DOJ charges ($340M+ losses) and SEC civil action ($300M). Bulgarian and Russian organized crime ties are suspected. X posts from @CryptoScamHub note One Ecosystem’s existence despite Ignatova’s fugitive status. Similar warnings in Germany, Spain, and New Zealand highlight coordinated EU action.

Investor Protection and Market Outlook

OneCoin’s reboot as One Ecosystem exploits remaining victims. Investors should verify platforms via atvp. si or sec.gov and avoid MLM crypto schemes promising returns. Bitcoin (BTC) ($113,234) and Ethereum (ETH) ($4,070) remain unaffected, according to CoinMarketCap, but Ponzi exposure erodes trust. Diversify into USDC or regulated assets, with stop-losses below BTC’s $112,000, on TradingView. Follow @TheBlock__ on X for scam alerts. ATVP’s warning may deter One Ecosystem’s growth, but Ignatova’s evasion enables persistence.
