Court wound up Key Coin Assets in 2026 over Ponzi-style crypto scheme
Key Coin Assets Ltd · Crypto investment scheme
The case in brief
Visible before detection
Checks that could have surfaced it, on hindsight
Bank credits vs books
Bank credits would show investor deposits moved to the director rather than into trading.
Can mislead when: AA only sees the accounts the company links, so an undisclosed account stays invisible. Cash-heavy businesses and timing differences create false flags.
Counterparty existence
The registered address would be a flat whose occupants deny any link.
Can mislead when: Real companies can be used as pass-throughs. Existence does not prove a real trade, so C6 and C7 still apply.
Regulatory & litigation records
Insolvency and FCA registers would show no authorisation to take investments.
Can mislead when: Court records lag and name spellings vary. A clean record can mean the problem has not reached court yet.

Mapped from the checks each service runs. A hindsight reading of public records, not a promise that the failure would have been found.
Same pattern
A summary of public documents. It reports what the sources say. It is not Kubr's finding and not a statement of guilt.
