The Russian representative of Huobi, one of the largest Bitcoin exchanges, Andrei Grachev, in an exclusive comment for BlockchainJournal, refuted any connection with the OneLife project and the infamous OneCoin cryptocurrency, which is considered a pyramid in some countries .
According to him, a couple of times he acted as a speaker at DealShaker platform events, but did not know about their connection with the OneCoin scam project.
“In January, I was approached by representatives of the DealShaker platform with a proposal to hold a training seminar for the community. They did not mention their connection with OneCoin. I and two other representatives of the banking and business community spoke at the meeting and that was it, ”said Andrei Grachev.
It is noteworthy that the platform DealShaker was created directly for the sale of goods and services for OneCoin cryptocurrency. The main page contains the exchange rate of ONE to the euro, and all prices are indicated in this cryptocurrency.
After some time, the representatives of DealShaker again suggested Grachev to become a speaker and tell about the trade in the cryobto exchange Huobi.
“I told specifically about the stock exchange, about cryptocurrencies, how to register on the site – I spent an hour of time. Tonight they made a posting on Facebook, which marked me that I supposedly supported their business. I was somewhat surprised, withdrew my mark, wrote that I was wrongfully noted and the information indicated in the message does not correspond to reality. I also demanded that representatives of OneCoin, before the end of the week, remove the references to our partnership in all sources. Otherwise, we will be forced to publicly state that they are misleading people.
Officially declare that the published information in no way implies any partnership between our companies, and even more so the listing of OneCoin on the Huobi Exchange, ”said Andrei Grachev.
Note that the story began with a Facebook publication by a certain Elena Zemlyanskaya with information about the partnership allegedly concluded between Grachev and OneLife.
Andrei Grachev also commented on an ambiguous photo (the first in the post) from the last event:
“This is a photo of the Quick Start to Crypto Trading package from Huobi Russia. You can scan the right code and see. They are also on our website myhuobi.ru, there is no special information there, and there is no agreement on partnership either. I talked about our standard product, about our exchange. People took photos and gave them other meanings, ”said Grachev.
Recall that the OneCoin project was initially positioned as a highly profitable cryptocurrency, in which investors received a profit not only from asset growth, but also for attracting new participants.
In September 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority in the UK financial markets issued a formal warning that they consider OneCoin a fraudulent network marketing scheme.
The total damage from the activities of OneCoin amounted to $ 11 billion .
