BBC discloses link between missing  Cryptoqueen and Bulgarian gangster

In September 2019, the BBC embarked on a journalistic journey delving into the captivating narrative of Ruja Ignatova, the mastermind behind OneCoin, a cryptocurrency scheme that swindled investors of billions before she vanished without a trace. Now, after years of pursuit, new revelations have emerged shedding light on her fate.

Ruja Ignatova, an Oxford University graduate of Bulgarian origin, launched OneCoin in 2014, promising investors lucrative returns akin to early Bitcoin ventures. However, her venture turned out to be an elaborate Ponzi scheme, leaving countless victims in its wake.

As investigations closed in on Ignatova in 2017, she disappeared, leaving behind a web of intrigue and unanswered questions. Recent inquiries by BBC Eye Investigations and Panorama have unearthed startling connections between Ignatova and a suspected Bulgarian organized crime figure known as Taki.

Taki, also referred to as Hristoforos Nikos Amanatidis, was purportedly tasked with Ignatova’s security, raising suspicions of a deeper alliance between the two. Evidence suggests Taki’s involvement in organized crime, including drug trafficking and money laundering, with ties to Ignatova’s fraudulent enterprise.

Leaked Europol documents indicate a nexus between Ignatova and Taki, with Bulgarian authorities suspecting Taki of utilizing OneCoin’s financial infrastructure for illicit activities. Despite Taki’s elusive nature and formidable reputation, speculations abound regarding his role in Ignatova’s disappearance.

Reports from Bulgarian investigative journalist Dimitar Stoyanov suggest that Ignatova may have met a grim fate at Taki’s behest, with allegations of her murder surfacing in police documents found after the killing of a Bulgarian officer. While these claims remain unverified, associates of Taki corroborate the theory, citing Ignatova’s potential status as a liability.

Despite mounting evidence and testimonies, Taki has evaded prosecution, residing in Dubai where Ignatova’s fraudulent gains flowed. Efforts to unravel the truth surrounding Ignatova’s disappearance have been met with challenges, including death threats against journalists and witnesses.

Former IRS investigator Richard Reinhardt believes Ignatova’s demise is probable, echoing concerns of cartel-style retribution in criminal circles. However, definitive proof remains elusive, perpetuating the enigma surrounding the missing Cryptoqueen.

As Ignatova’s saga continues to captivate the world, the search for truth persists, underscoring the enduring impact of financial fraud and the relentless pursuit of justice in the face of deception.
