Hard to say is it fake news or not. In German prostitution is legal, that would explain this interview. However... I'm curious if Mr. Karhialas lady would actually advertise prostitution so openly besides with good food.

I'm sure I saw that walking heart attack timebomg in Candy bar about 3-4 months ago. Came in with a group of about 6-8, all the others had that unmistakable look of knock shop/hostess bar owners from Thailand.

I looked at the photos of opening night over on TOF, most prominent was one of the old owners. At least two of the girls are girlfriends/wives of the former owners. Won't work!

I see Chanty gets a picture in their opening night photos. Looks like maybe 20 customers there. Off to a good start?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OneCoin


OneCoin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with the Onecoin issued by Chinese company Xunlei.

OneCoin is a Ponzi scheme [1][2] promoted as a cryptocoin with a private blockchain. It is promoted by offshore companies OneCoin Ltd (Dubai) and OneLife Network Ltd (Belize), both led by Bulgarian Ruja Ignatova.[3] OneCoin has been described as a Ponzi scheme, both because of how it has been set up and because of many of the people who are central to OneCoin having previously been involved in other such schemes.[4][5]
Concept

According to OneCoin, its main business is selling educational material for trading. Members are able to buy educational packages ranging from 100 euros to 118,000 euros.[6] Each package includes "tokens" which can be assigned to "mine" OneCoins. OneCoin is said to be mined by servers at two sites in Bulgaria and one site in Hong Kong. Each level (except six and seven), or package, gives new educational material, which is plagiarized from several sources.[7] The company and its recruiters claims that OneCoin doesn't sell cryptocurrency but only educational material. However, in a typical OneCoin recruiting meeting most of the time recruiters talk about investing in cryptocurrency and the educational material is barely even mentioned.[8][original research?]

Currently there is no way to exchange onecoins to any other currency. Previous to January 2017 the only way to exchange onecoins to any other currency was OneCoin Exchange, xcoinx, an internal market place for members who had invested more than just a starter package. This service was shutdown without warning in January 2017.[9] While it was functioning, onecoins could only be exchanged for euros, which were placed in a virtual wallet from which they could be requested for wire transfer. The market place had daily selling limits based on which packages the seller had invested in, which greatly limited the amount of onecoins which could be exchanged. On 1 March 2016, without a prior warning, OneCoin issued an internal notice that the market would be closed for two weeks for maintenance. The notice explained that the maintenance was necessary due to high amount of miners and for "better integration with blockchain".[10] On 15 March 2016, after the two-week maintenance, the market opened again but no visible changes had been done; most of the transactions expired as before and daily limits stayed on.
Legal issues and criticism

In December 2016, The Italian Antitrust Authority (Autorità Garante della Concorrenza e del Mercato) "adopted an interim injunction against the company One Network Services Ltd., active in the promotion and dissemination of cryptocurrency OneCoin...", and its representatives in Italy, describing their activities as an "illegal pyramid sales system" ("sistema di vendita piramidale vietato dalla legge"), and ordering them to cease promoting and selling OneCoin in Italy [11] On 27 February 2017, after concluding their investigation, AGCM banned all activity on OneCoin until further notice.[12]

In February 2017 German Federal Financial Services Supervisory Authority, BaFin, froze all the remaining active bank accounts that were used laundering money for OneCoin network. Total of 29 million euros remains frozen on these accounts. Also, BaFin ordered IMS International Marketing Services GmbH to cease all unauthorized money transactions related to OneCoin and to return the most recent money transactions to their investors.[13] 18 April 2017 BaFin ordered OneCoin Ltd to cease all the business in Germany.[14] 27 April BaFin banned trading in OneCoins. Also, OneLife Network Ltd and One Network Services Ltd were ordered to cease their business in Germany.[15] On 9 May 2017 Bielefeld public prosecution office started investigations against 7 people in power of International Marketing Services GmbH (IMS) in Greven, Germany, for organized fraud and money laundering. According to the prosecutors IMS had received 360 million Euros from German investors during the time period December 2015 to December 2016, of which 29 million were still in bank accounts that were frozen.[16][17]

On 23 April 2017, Indian police arrested 18 people in Navi Mumbai for organizing a OneCoin recruitment event. The police attended the event undercover to judge the accusations before they decided to act. Further investigation has been started to reveal the higher levels of the pyramid.[18][19] In May, the investigation recovered Rs 24.57 crores ($3.66 million USD) in nine bank accounts. A further Rs 75 crores ($11.16 million USD) was transferred out before authorities were able to seize it.[20] Beginning of May, two more people were arrested and Rs 24 crores ($3.57 million USD) were seized from bank accounts. A special investigation team was formed with four Assistant Police Inspectors and 15 personnel under Senior Police Inspector Shivaji Awate to follow the money trail for further arrests.[21]

29 May 2017 International Financial Services Commission of Belize (IFSC) issued a warning about OneLife Network Ltd conducting trading business without license or permission from IFSC or any other authority. OneLife Network Ltd was directed to cease and desist from carrying on with the illegal trading business.[22]

16 June 2017 the CEO of OneCoin Ltd. claimed OneCoin being licensed by Vietnamese government, having legal rights to be used in Vietnam as a digital currency and being the first cryptocurrency in Asia officially licensed by any government.[23] 20 June 2017 the Ministry of Planning and Investment of Vietnam issued a statement that the document which OneCoin used as a proof was forged. They stated that the document was against the MPI regulations and that the person who supposedly signed the document was not in the position claimed by the document at the time when the document was created. MPI warned individuals and enterprises to be vigilant if they encounter the document during business.[24][23]

10 July 2017 Ruja Ignatova, the CEO, was charged in India with duping investors as a part of the Indian Investigation.[25]

The British newspaper Daily Mirror wrote that OneCoin / OneLife is a get-rich-quick scheme scam and a cult, calling it "virtually worthless".[26] Bitcoin.com has given detailed evidence that OneCoin is an extensive ponzi scheme scam.[27]

In Hungary the Central Bank has issued a warning that OneCoin is a pyramid scheme.[28] And in China, several members and investors of OneCoin were arrested in 2016 and $30.8 million USD of assets were seized.[29]

The company and the scheme is on the observation lists of many authorities, among them are authorities in Bulgaria, Finland,[6][30][31] Sweden,[32] Norway[33] and Latvia.[34] Currently, none of the countries have declared OneCoin as criminal activity, but authorities have warned of potential risks involved in businesses like OneCoin. On 30 September 2015, Bulgaria's Financial Supervision Commission (FSC) issued a warning of potential risks in new cryptocurrencies, citing OneCoin as an example.[35] After the warning, OneCoin ceased all activity in Bulgaria and started to use banks in foreign countries to handle wire transfers from participants.[36] In March 2016, The Direct Selling Association in Norway warned against OneCoin, comparing it to a pyramid scheme.[3] In March 2017, the Croatian National Bank (HNB) advised the public to "exercise a high degree of caution" in decisions involving OneCoin, noted that OneCoin operations are not supervised by the HNB, and warned that possible losses will be fully borne by the investors.[37] On 28 April 2017 Bank of Thailand issued a warning against OneCoin, telling it to be an illegal digital currency and it should not be used in trade.[38]

OneLife suspend OneCoin withdrawals, affiliates can’t cash out
Jan.15, 2017 in OneCoin

Whatever hopes OneCoin affiliates had of getting their money out of the scheme have been dashed, after it was announced the xCoinx internal exchange will remain closed.

The news was broken to OneCoin affiliates over the weekend, tacked onto the end of a video message by Founder Ruja Ignatova.

For months OneCoin have been denying all but a tiny percentage of withdrawal requests made through xCoinx. xCoinx is an internal exchange operated by OneCoin and is the only way for affiliates to cash their OneCoin points out.

A few weeks back OneCoin shut down xCoinx, in anticipation of an announcement on January 13th.
