The Onecoin Ponzi scheme is still making headlines as reports from a trial in Germany revealed the missing \u2018Cryptoqueen,\u2019 Ruja Ignatova, purchased a London penthouse worth $18.2 million with proceeds from the Onecoin operation. The M\u00fcnster court\u2019s findings stem from the trial against Martin Breidenbach, Ignatova\u2019s German attorney, who is being accused of money laundering.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2018Cryptoqueen\u2019 Ruja Ignatova\u2019s $18.2 Million London Penthouse \u2013 Apartment Stuffed With Fine Art, Rare Andy Warhol Piece<\/h2>\n

Ruja Ignatova, Onecoin\u2019s<\/a> \u2018Cryptoqueen,\u2019 purchased a luxury penthouse apartment in London via a shell company, according to recent reports<\/a> from the BBC. The report notes that Martin Breidenbach is on trial in M\u00fcnster, Germany with two other individuals over alleged money laundering charges that are connected to the Onecoin pyramid scheme and Ruja Ignatova. Reports published years ago show that Breidenbach started working<\/a> with Onecoin in 2014.<\/p>\n

The lawyer worked with the law firm Breidenbach Rechtsanw\u00e4lte and it has been said<\/a> that the attorney was also the director of Onecoin Limited (Gibraltar) for eight months in 2015, and ostensibly a partner in Cryptoreal firm RSB Central GmbH (Switzerland) as well. Breidenbach\u2019s trial, alongside the findings from the British author, BBC journalist, and \u201cMissing Cryptoqueen<\/a>\u201d podcast host, Jamie Bartlett, found that shows Ruja Ignatova had extremely expensive taste.<\/p>\n

The reports say that the four-bedroom luxury flat kept a number of fine artworks hidden in the apartment, including a rare Andy Warhol piece. The property was purchased by a shell company in 2016 which kept the \u2018Cryptoqueen\u2019s\u2019 name out of the picture. Just before she leased the London flat, Ignatova pleaded guilty to a German bankruptcy case. Now Breidenbach is accused of money laundering after transferring \u20ac20 million ($23 million) in order to finance the property.<\/p>\n

Reports note that the \u2018Cryptoqueen<\/a>\u2019 did stay at the luxury apartment in 2016 but didn\u2019t spend much time there. The property\u2019s owner, as shown on the deed, is called Abbots House Penthouse Limited. Meanwhile, Ruja Ignatova has been missing since 2017 and despite a large worldwide search effort, she has not been found. Onecoin is considered one of the largest crypto-related Ponzi schemes ever and the first as well.<\/p>\n

In 2014 the Law Firm Breidenbach Rechtsanw\u00e4lte Said: \u2018In Our Opinion, the Onecoin Is a Legitimate Product\u2019<\/h2>\n

The German lawyer\u2019s office Breidenbach Rechtsanw\u00e4lte in 2014 helped legitimize the idea that Onecoin was a cryptocurrency, even though it didn\u2019t have a blockchain or any similarities<\/a> to any blockchain technology.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost countries have recognized cryptocurrencies as a bona fide commodity, which may be held and traded by their citizens,\u201d the law firm Breidenbach Rechtsanw\u00e4lte opined in 2014<\/a>. \u201cIn our opinion, the \u2018Onecoin\u2019 is a legitimate product, limited to 2.1 billion (coins),\u201d the law firm added in December 2014.<\/p>\n
