The Missing Cryptoqueen podcast
Discussion
Just finished this podcast and thoroughly enjoyed it. Really interesting insight into a huge scam which still seems to be happening whilst the leader has disappeared of the face of the planet.
Anyone else been listening? As much as I loved it, i found the last episode to be quite underwhelming. Maybe another series on its way?

I thought the message from the journalist at the very end was odd.
"You have been looking in the right place, you just need to find the house. You're so close." How the hell does he know? Unless he's already found her, in which case why hasn't he made the news?
Yeah I thought that was weird too, especially as he said they’ve already been at the same table as her without realising. They don’t specifically say who left the message though, so maybe it’s someone who knows where she is, but too scared to say anything given the mafia links."You have been looking in the right place, you just need to find the house. You're so close." How the hell does he know? Unless he's already found her, in which case why hasn't he made the news?
It just seemed bizarre to end on that!
Really enjoyed it too.
Liked the guy doing most of the talking - although half the time I imagined it was Louis Theroux!
And without too much of a spoiler how dark it got when they realised they were 'through the looking glass'.
The last episode made for sad listening though, and again I hope its not a spoiler but it just highlighted the fact that 'those that can least afford it are those that are prayed on the most'... or maybe they just want to believe the most.
Very surpised that non of my other friends had heard of OneCoin though and that they are still trading!

Agree with all of this, especially the Louis Theroux comment haha!Liked the guy doing most of the talking - although half the time I imagined it was Louis Theroux!

I started a thread, yesterday, in the Finance section: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
I know of a few people who were approached to 'invest' in OneCoin in 2016. They rejected the offer on the basis of it being too good to be true, the friends who had made the offer to them, were quite offended. Which having listened to the MLM selling approach doesn't surprise me.
It's an extremely well produced podcast and I thoroughly enjoyed it. But once you trawl the internet there's plenty of people calling OneCoin out. So the content of the much of the podcast isn't all new. But it's just incredible that it is still out there, being sold - but also the fact that identical products are gaining ground too.
The last episode was different to the previous 7. Not what I was expecting but worrying for other reasons.
