Zondacrypto has disappeared, leaving hundreds of thousands of users unable to access their funds. The platform was a leader in the Central and Eastern European region and has been offline since April, with two key executives also missing. The license of Zondacrypto's parent company, BB Trade Estonia OÜ, was revoked by the Estonian Financial Intelligence Unit on June 29, 2026, after some licenses were suspended on May 18, preventing new customers from entering.
