To plan her scam, Ruja Ignatova returned to the country where her parents are from, and where she was also born: Bulgaria. Her best friend is Asdis Ran, the “Icequeenâ€, an Icelandic supermodel. She lives in Sofia. We meet her in our search for Ignatova’s past and ask who she actually was. Asdis Ran talks exclusively on camera for the first time about her time with cryptoqueen Ruja Ignatova.
She talks about the wild time in Bulgaria when they met, shortly after the country joined the EU. The general mood was euphoric, EU billions were gushing and everyone was trying to profit from it. Asdis Ran introduces Ruja to Bulgarian oligarchs and dubious marketing specialists from Scandinavia. Among them Sebastian Greenwood, who became Ruja’s lover and business partner at OneCoin. Asdis Ran explains how Ruja got her name “the crypto queen†and how they jointly squandered the money Ruja amassed through her scam. A German OneCoin investor tells how he put 20,000 euros into OneCoin – and lost everything. But how did Ruja Ignatova, who has a doctorate in law, become a globally wanted criminal? How did the billion-dollar scam work?
