Johan Stael von Holstein abandons Crowd1, on the run?
Crowd1 CEO Johan Stael von Holstein has abandoned Crowd1 and its investors.
The abrupt announcement was made earlier today, via a press-release issued by Mattias Tönnheim
Tönnheim works for Crowd1 PR. As per his press-release;
As of November 23, 2020, Johan Staël von Holstein steps down as CEO and sole administrator of TIM and leaves both the Crowd1 and the ICT organization due to health reasons.
That’s not a typo. Crowd1 has backdated Holstein doing a runner to late November.
Whether that’s factual or not is unclear. Previously Holstein (right) denied being Crowd1’s CEO, despite an avalanche of evidence to the contrary.
At a Crowd1 event held in January 2020, Holstein took to the stage to present a ‘3 to 5-year plan to bring Crowd1 into the NASDAQ and become a publicly-traded company.’
We know that sounds laughable for a Ponzi scheme, but that’s what Holstein pitched.
Getting back to Crowd1’s press-release;
Of course both I and the board respect Johan’s decision, but at the same time, we think it’s a shame to lose a strong personality with a lot of knowledge.
In any case, we would like to thank Johan for his valuable contributions to Crowd1 and wish him good health and all the best for the future, says Jonas Werner, founder of Crowd1.
Holstein is being replaced by Johan Westerdahl (right), promoted up from Crowd1’s Chief Commercial Officer.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Westerdahl is based out of Malmo, Sweden. Holstein had run Crowd1 with Jonas Werner from Spain.
Westerdahl’s last public appearance was Crowd1’s bullshit sandwich response to BBC Africa Eye’s exposé.
Whether Holstein had fled Spain is unclear. For their part Crowd1 has advised;
No further comments will be made on the above issue at this point.
The “issue” being Holstein’s departure.
Holstein taking his stolen Crowd1 investor funds and doing a runner, comes against a backdrop of increasing regulatory heat.
In the last week alone Crowd1 has received three securities fraud warnings across Europe (Slovakia, Hungary and the Czech Republic).
All in all twelve countries have issued securities fraud warnings against Crowd1. Unfortunately neither Spain or Sweden have taken any action, at least not publicly.
Pending any further developments, we’ll keep you posted.
Update 13th February 2024 – Not much going on at Crowd1 (which now goes by C1 because marketing).
As of February 2023, Johan Westerdahl is out as CEO. The position is now held by Martin Bylsma (right).
Bylsma, from Norway, is known to BehindMLM through Bitcoin Economy (cash gifting), Wellstar (pyramid scheme) and WeROn (Ponzi scheme).
Hat tip to BBC reporter Aliaume Leroy for the heads up!
Looks like a fairly rapid collapse is on the cards now.
hold on to your butts, professional victims incoming!
Perhaps von Holstein quit because Crowd1’s much hyped and delayed Miggster gaming platform turned out to be such a hilarious joke.
Here is the Miggster launch event promo video with some of the “great” games available on the platform showcased:
youtu.be/cbx-4tsvO7A?t=3593
Quick search reveals that the games they paraded are random run-of-the-mill HTML5 games for kids. They are freely playable on other websites.
Here are just two examples:
kibagames.com/Game/Banana-Run
giochi123.net/gioco/bunnicula-juicy-bites
Now Crowd1 is asking €69 payment to play these free and unexciting games. ;D
Me thinks Johan started showing early warning signs of prisonitis that has caused his health issues to step down.
I am no doctor, but have seen these symptoms many times before, so am confident I am close in my diagnosis.
I’m just surprised they didn’t try to claim that he contracted COVID19 and had to resign due to health issues. At least that story would have been plausible.
OK, who’s next?
OMG HAHA, that’s some OneCoin-level BS tactics taking simple free HTML5 games and representing those as the selling point of their gaming platform. 😀
Yeah, Crowd1 is about ~5 years too late with the shovelware gAmInG pLaTfOrM ruse.
Also not sure if it’s shenanigans but Crowd1 changed the name of one of their Spanish shell companies:
“TIM” is the shell company used to publish Crowd1’s press-releases (dunno if it’s used for anything else).
Anyway could be an indicator of banking issues.
The moment I saw this headline, I also immediately thought: he’s realized it’s all over after the Miggster/Emerge Gaming fiasco.
JSvH in his public appearances had been focusing heavily on that, as the thing that would finally bring some reality to his “Crowd1 is a software marketing network” nonsense.
I’ve been wanting to comment about this situation for four weeks now, since the belly flop of the Miggster launch on November 14, but never found the time, and now Semjon has beaten me to it.
The reason for my lateness is that it would have been a long post, since it involves an alliance of convenience with an Australian non-MLM company, Emerge Gaming, which a lot of watchers of the Australian Stock Exchange have long suspected of being nothing more than a pump-and-dump operation, without any genuine intention of ever being a real business.
The people who publicly expressed these suspicions only first heard about Crowd1 quite recently.
Crowd1 came in useful for Emerge Gaming, since affiliates could be herded into “pre-registering” for the promised Miggster platform in droves, giving them something they could use in the “pump” part of the cycle to drive up the stock price, In turn, it provided Crowd1 with a pretend product to sell.
The sudden mass pre-registration surge which resulted was so obviously dubious that the Australian Stock Exchange authorities asked formal questions, and Emerge Gaming had to ‘voluntarily’ suspend their stock market quotation on October 29 to come up with an answer.
They kept on extending that suspension week by week, but finally returned to trading on December 8 (see the stretch of flatlining grey bars on www2.asx.com.au/markets/company/EM1).
(I haven’t had time yet to read the reply to the ASX authorities they finally came up with, but it was clearly enough for them to be allowed to return to trading. I’ll follow up later, if it contains anything of note about the financial arrangements they had with Crowd1.)
Such a hype-based strategy of course breaks down when the product must finally be shown. The mystery of Emerge Gaming touting their gaming platform had always been: if they’re going to be the next big thing in online gaming (they kept calling themselves “the Netflix of gaming”), why don’t they ever mention any actual games?
At the big launch on November 14, we finally found out why.
The games did indeed turn out to be nothing more than mostly crappy, free, already available browser stuff.
Most of them are HTML5 games from a company called Famobi (one of their main URLs being html5games.com), which aren’t just free to play, but anyone can slap on their own website for free (they make their money off in-game advertising).
Plus there are a few other, equally crappy, freebies available through other channels as well.
There’s actually two different levels of stupid here. Of course nobody is going to pay for playing games they can get for free, but the Miggster business model was based on people paying to take part in competitive gaming, as well as interacting with other gamers in other ways.
That could hypothetically even work with games you can also play for free, non-competitively. But these are the kind of trivial “casual” games any gamer committed enough to want to play competitively only has disdain for, and which nobody wants to join discussion forums about.
So Miggster, as expected by many, turned out to be nothing but smoke and mirrors, and now we have the fallout on two separate companies to watch.
At least, everything I’ve found points to Emerge Gaming and Crowd1 being two entirely unrelated schemes, whose paths just happened to cross.
It’s not a mere name change, Tecnologia de Impacto Multiple SL is a brand-new company, of which JSvH was once again the ‘Administrador Unico’, a position from which he had resigned in the earlier Impact Crowd Technology SL.
My guess was that, since the first Spanish shell company had been around for a bit over a year, and that was already a replacment for a short-lived Cyprus-registered one, the switch could have had something to do with trying to avoid publishing first-year accounts. But I don’t know if that makes any sense in the Spanish legal context.
Of course, having a new name would also be convenient to get bank accounts once again, for a brief period, if the banks involved don’t do too much due diligence.
Reading the Emerge Gaming’s responses to ASX enquiries (link in the PassingBy’s post). It’s surprising that ASX bought their bullshit and gave the green light.
It appears Emerge Gaming was feeding ASX some some dense poppycock implying de facto and de jure separetness of Crowd1 and TIM:
And, when ASX asked details about the enquiries EG made about TIM’s relationship to Crowd1, the response was:
So Emerge Gaming was brazenly misleading, if not outright lying to ASX.
JSvH stepping down and TIM’s name change might be interesting for ASX, for EG resorted to JSvH’s good reputation when ASX asked about regulatory warnings related Crowd1 and what Due Diligence they did.
The Emerge Gaming announcement also contain some info about the “success” of Miggster.
Emerge Gaming first hyped that they have 6+ million pre-registered users for Miggster via Crowd1/TIM. When ASX wanted proof, EG apparently showed them some snapshot from Crowd1 platform.
When ASX asked “How many of the pre-registrants to date have converted their pre-registrations into paying subscriptions of MIGGSTER?”, they started talking about “technical live testing launch period”, which sounds like a lame excuse for the low numbers — compared to the millions of potential subscribers implied — they delcared:
By early December, the numbers had gone up, but the it’s clear that the pre-registrations were largerly air when only 3% of supposed limited number of “technical live testing launch period” invitees actually subscribed withing the first month:
It is incredible that Emerge gaming is still allowed to do business in Australia given they are taking profits from an illegal pyramid scheme.
I don’t know what it says about the ASX and ASIC that it is OK to make money from a pyramid scheme, as long as it is operating in another country?
I can only imagine ASIC are as inept at detecting money laundering as they are at regulation.
“We’ve looked into it and Crowd1 is not registered to offer securities anywhere. It’s a Ponzi scheme.
So what percentage of your Emerge Gaming subscriptions can be attributed to Crowd1 investors?”
“Ummm, uhhhh…”
“That’s what we thought. Shut ‘er down boys.”
If only ASIC were competent.
Numbers from EG documents are so sweet! (thanks Semjon and PassingBy)
– There are 925,000 registered Miggster members (free registration) up to 3 December 2020.
– At least 12,000 of them are Crowd Members (these initial invites were sent to selected Crowd1 members). But I think the rest of 925,000 are also Crowd1 members because:
a) No one else than Crowd1 members were initially invited to promote Miggster
b) Crowd1 initially invited members simply drove in their downlines (power of duplication!)
So here we have closed circle of morons putting the money in… and expecting (after reshuffling the inserted money) some rewards. I will discus a rewards potential later. 😉
– We don’t know, how many of 925,000 free registrations are fake/multiple accounts. Registration requires only name, surname and email (and invite code, of course). Looking at the way the system is implemented… I see a strong chance and urgent need for creation of dummy registrations (more accounts created by one physical member in order to claim and hold more positions in the system of rewards).
– Only 25,674 members paid for subscription up to 7 December 2020 and they brought to Miggster ~1.5 mil EUR.
– I wonder how many of them are paying for “Gaming platform” (these games introduced at promo video were really stupid, poor and available for free). My wild guess 9 of 10 subscribers are brainwashed and bought subscription only because they were told by their upline. They are actually not interested in the leisure games and/or competitive gaming. They are here only for rewards.
– Crowd1 have allegedly 21 mil. members (I don’t believe this figure).
-> If all fees from subscribers were used for Crowd1 members’ rewards (this will never happen), each Crowd1 member will get fantastic 0.07 EUR this month. Hilarious!
-> If only Miggster registered members will get rewards from subscribers, they will get 1.62 EUR each. This pays off! Well, don’t forget, some of them have multiple accounts, so they can get more (again – that will never happen. I am pretty sure there will be in the end a rule: free account – no rewards potential).
Miggster is a zero sum game.
This article revealed a previous Towah associate is administrating the crowd 1 UAE base with MORE accountants.
seren.bangor.ac.uk/news-politics/business/2020/12/07/crowd-1-the-pyramid-scheme-empire
Equally looking at wayback machine records, Emerge gaming and miggster/crowd 1 have been using the exact same ‘esports’ stock photo far before any official association. An interesting coincidence!
Here’s the real story behind Johan’s departure, cough, cough:
youtube.com/watch?v=qwRzm3KIHd0
Everything is good with this change, and Johan will still be working behind the scenes with the new CEO to make Croud1 even better.
I especially loved how Ambassador George von Baak(?) claimed Johan was just an “entrepreneur” and Cloud1 is a “network company” and the new CEO, Johan Westerdahl, is well versed in network marketing.
So you see there is nothing to worry about and this is the best thing that could have happened for the company at this stage.
The rest of the video is just more BS upon more BS about how great Miggster is and why people will want to join.
Oh, and Johan has COVID, thus the reason for his departure. Wonder if someone was reading my comment above and agreed that was a plausible reason for his leaving? LOL!!
Johan has COVID? Lulz.
2020/2021 version of “my dog died so I quit”.
George van Wijk. A Dutchman, from a quick online glance a close associate of serial scammer Renze/Renz/Rens Deelstra/Edgardo/Eduardo.
Deelstra/Edgardo/Eduardo (who also sometimes doesn’t use any of his three second names, but just “Mr.” followed by one of his three first names) is so notorious that even Business For Home describes him in their puff pieces as “controversial”.
Thanks for clarifying his last name. It was easy to hear that English was not his first language, and I had a hard time hearing and understanding him when he was announced it due to his accent, so was guessing.
So Johan SvH has Covid? He is one of the few who has caught it twice!
According to his Facebook profile on March 17 he had it then. There is no recent update of any new virus infection.
All that’s known is Holstein has done a runner with whatever money he stole from Crowd1 investors.
I wouldn’t trust Ponzi scammers claiming to have COVID-19 on face value, it’s too convenient of an exit-scam.
Is there a public link to this post?
I went through the Facebook profiles of all persons with a name “Johan Holstein” looking like “our” Johan Holstein and there is nothing (all profiles have the content of almost all posts hidden).
von Holstein told Swedish press that he resigned because there was too much stress and pressure:
breakit.se/artikel/27309
So his “health reasons” excuse was mental health related. Criminal life can take toll on one’s psyche. No mention about COVID.
The article also says that JSvH has signed a NDA which prevents him from talking about Crowd1.
@Mr. Czech: You will find the original Covid post from JSvH here: m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10157849889215450&id=555995449
I wonder if this is JSvH’s brother or cousin: linkedin.com/in/fredrik-sta%C3%ABl-von-holstein-7073812/
“Stress and pressure” = regulators closing in.
If COVID-19 wasn’t officially pushed by Crowd1, seems like something desperate investors came up with then.
I didn’t include it in the article because Crowd1 didn’t mention COVID-19 in Holstein’s exit-scam announcement.
Fredrik is Johan’s brother. He was involved in one of Johan’s big failures, Letsbuyit.com, at the turn of the millennium. Now he seems to be in the gaming industry.
The Stael von Holstein family is noble, their coat of arms (eight red balls on a white shield) hang in the House of Nobility in Stockholm.
Letsbuyit.com was actually the first attempt by JSvH to set up a company all on his own, so also his first failure.
In the one before that he likes to claim credit for, Icon Medialab, he was actually only one of four founders in 1996, he spent his time as its first CEO fighting with the other three, and he left in 1998, before it went public in 1999, to set up Letsbuyit.
Icon Medialab was a typical product of the dot com bubble, living on hype without ever turning a profit, and it duly crashed along with that bubble in early 2000 (so with JSvH no longer there).
Letsbuyit was also his only big failure. While all the companies he was involved with since then have also been complete and very short-lived failures, none of them could be considered big, certainly none of them was listed on the (German) stock exchange for a brief while.
That in turn led to a farcical sideshow during the company’s collapse (it was around for such a short time, that it really was in state of permanent collapse), when the criminal Kim Schmitz, a.k.a. Kim Dotcom, tried to use its near-worthless but still listed shares for a pump-and-dump scam, apparently without any involvement from the company itself.
Whether or not JSvH still owned any shares when the company collapsed, or had cashed in when they were still worth something, isn’t known.
Since the Letsbuyit fiasco, all of his business ventures (and therefore failures) have been much smaller, seeming to be based on the model of roping in a few private investors, who he manages to dupe with his carefully constructed and entirely fake public persona of “serial entrepreneur” and “internet visionary”. Institutional investors, the ones you need for really large business ventures, tend not to fall for that. (That’s besides his two forays into MLM/pyramid scheme scamming alongside Jonas Werner.)
It is indeed a very old noble family, they are what in German is known as Uradel, whose aristocratic status was already established when the very first written records of such things emerge, how they got there being lost in the mists of the Dark Ages.
That’s why there’s no nobiliary particle like “von” or “de” in front of the family name “Staël”, that’s a habit which arose later and Uradel families often don’t have one. The “von Holstein” is a much later addition to the name.
The Holstein in question incidentally isn’t the Duchy of Holstein, now half of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein.
The family is noble but if Johan is noble is questionable. I think he was born Johan Person and got the name Staël von Holstein when his mother re-married and her new husband adopted Johan.
I think Fredrik is his half brother.
Thanks for the link! Facebook search did not reveal me this profile.
Well small remark… He keeps on regular posting on FB, but there is no mention of the case of his new COVID disease.
Also press announcement about his “health problems” was not specific about COVID. Let’s take this with a grain of salt.
What he has mentioned is heart problems. Stress and too much of the “good life” are generally highly contributing factors.
Well, more good news from Crowd1. They have signed a UNIQUE WORLDWIDE agreement with Ltech, who is the largest purchaser of lottery tickets in the world.
This means that your Crowd will be able to buy lottery tickets and have the chance to win huge cash prizes from lotteries around the world.
Wonder how long before Ltch says they don’t have a contract with them, or their agreement is not that “Unique” at all?
Mattias Tönnheim is a new name. According to his LinkedIn profile he is besides PR consultant a “Crisis Management Specialist”. This may come in handy.
Can’t see any MLM links to him, so he may be a hired gun, but surely he can’t have missed the press Crowd1 is getting in Sweden.
He is based in Malmö, proud home of Elysium and Andreas Kartrud’s ponzi factories. He actually lives just a few blocks from the Elysium office, maybe they will need his services soon?
Another gambling ruse? Crowd1 has gone full circle.

The comments under that first video are fun. Almost nothing but complaints about how long it takes to withdraw money, and about how puny the promised returns turn out to be.
The new CEO produces some wonderful examples of scammer logic in the second one.
Some countries have, as a consumer protection measure, a fourteen day cooling off period for some buying decisions, during which buyers can still change their mind. Therefore, Crowd1 must take at least 14 days before carrying out any withdrawal request, or they wouldn’t be a serious company.
Trying to pass off a third-party app, which anyone can get directly from the maker, as being a Crowd1 exclusive product, is exactly the same thing as General Motors using multiple brand names.
He almost makes JSvH sound like a legitimate businessman.
And oh yes, that lottery tickets scheme sounds legally dubious to say the least, even without any involvement from Crowd1.
Given how in most countries where there are lotteries they’re a state monopoly, someone who is thinking about setting up shop reselling tickets for foreign lotteries had better get some very good legal advice first.
And I’m also not sure many state-run lotteries would take kindly to some foreign company arriving on the scene and bulk-buying tickets for resale to foreigners, with the result that most winners would be foreigners, too.

Very good. Most of the videos from the user “CROWD TIPS” should be removed.

Crowd1 was featured on Swedish television in the weekend.
The program “Svenska Nyheter” (“Swedish News”) spent 15 minutes, more than half of the show, on Crowd1.
Svenska Nyheter is not a traditional news program. They approach news items from a satirical angle but sometimes focus on something rotten in society and uses comedy to drive home the point.
Crowd1 got this treatment with Holstein being the main target. Also turns out a lot of Swedish artists and media personalities have featured in the Crowd1 videos and events.
For example, Frida Boisen from the social media world, who has actually hosted a TV show chasing down net haters.
You would think with her background as an investigating reporter she would check the background of people hiring her for “motivational speeches”. I bet she wishes she had done that now…

Leaving this here as I’ve gotten a few emails about Renze Deelstra getting the boot.
Deelstra is looking to launch his own crypto scam, New Choyce. There’s a website up touting an 83 day prelaunch from today.
No business information beyond that (comp plan etc.). If that information is made public prior to launch I’ll cover it then.
Failing which I don’t see the need to cover a Ponzi scammer getting the boot. If Crowd1 goes further down the gurgler as a result we’ll cover that accordingly.
Sounds like rats leaving sinking ship. Miggster was a major fiasco, and their other much-hyped project Epic1 Lotto doesen’t look too good either.
Epic1 Lotto was originally supposed to be launched on April 2020(youtube.com/watch?v=YAtj-G2179s), but after the delays, it finally prelaunced for high ranking members in December 2020:
youtube.com/watch?v=IGsQPy1SY1A
As it was announced on the event, there was supposed to be 100% transparency with scanned ticket images appearing on back office.
Found some videos showcasing the Epic1 Lotto platform, including lottery ticket purchases (–> e.g youtube.com/watch?v=Qbbnhzk1a28), but so far haven’t found a video where those scanned tickets are shown.
I’d appreciate if someone who has access to the Crowd1/Epic1 could confirm that there’s indeed a section on the platform in which the scanned images of purchased tickets are shown.
If not, my hunch is that Epic1 Lotto is a fake lottery platform just to cynically defraud money before the ultimate collapse.
But who is behind the Epic1 Lotto? On Crowd1’s website (affilgo.com/lottery/) they annaunced:
“Ltech” doesn’t reveal much about itself on its website (ltech.com), and seems to be pretty obscure venture overall. Domain data (domainbigdata.com/ltech.com) points to UK based firm Lotterytech Ltd (find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/07625501/officers) behind it, run by Manvir Kenth and Joachim Krebs(jkrebs.com).
Krebs is also a principal in Lottorisq Ltd which seemed to have been an earlier version of Ltech(–>web.archive.org/web/20160623075703/http://lottorisq.com/).
Domain data indicates that Lotterytech Ltd is also behind syndicatetool.com — a lottery syndicate platform.
These are probably the people police needs to interview when the sh*t hits the fan.
Renze Deelstra is out!
It is reported that Global Fund for Children is returning a generous donation of 100.000SEK to Crowd1.
Because Johan SvH needs them better than orphan children in Sierra Leone?
(Ozedit: HTTP error, link removed)
Legitimate charities don’t want dirty money. To them, sending it back is their best option, even if it means returning stolen money to thieves.
That way their hands are clean, and there is no risk of a receiver serving them notice of a claw-back suit down the line (which would be PR poison).
Scammers often donate to charities for their own PR, and charities want nothing to do with such machinations.
@ Amos N Andy
Agreed entirely.
Kudos to them.
If they even thought for a second it was dirty they would have to send it back of course, or face prosecution themselves.
I got this from that link:
Sounds like the Canadian charity that returned OneCoin’s PR donation. Like Amos_N_Andy said, it’s a risk for charities to accept Ponzi money.
The donations are only made for PR, and having your charity logo associated with Ponzi schemes isn’t a good look. Then there’s the regulatory angle.
edit: found an alt link on Breakit but it’s paywalled.
I almost mentioned the OneCoin thing. I remembered it was a Canadian charity, but I was only 98% sure it was OneCoin that tried to use them for PR. My memory ain’t what it used to be.
Yeah WhistleBlowerFin, Semjon and Melanie are the OneCoin academics. They never cease to amaze me with their encyclopedic knowledge of OneCoin filings.
I can recall the major events but I reached peak MLM brain capacity some years ago. Every new thing I cover seems to push out stuff from the past 🙁
I’ll remember you said that.
Oh, damn, now I forgot my shoe size.
As a (dubious) member of a four years, the ‘rules’ have changed somewhat from my initial ‘sign-up’ (and purchase)… and with the ‘leaving’ of Johan Stael von Holstein (for whatever reason), I am left to assume I can ‘wave goodbye’ to my money.
Thankfully I did not attempt to build a team, as a colleague has and now has to explain to them why they can’t get their ‘promised rewards’ (nor seemingly ANY of their money back…).
‘Thankfully’ (irony) my money appears to have helped fund the all-too-regular lavish events that Crowd1 put on……. hmmm.
Dutch Man Martin Bylsma is C1s new CEO.
Under Martins C1 compliance manager watch/job: 12 countries security investment warning.
Fraud Warning from:
Peru, New Zealand, Mauritius, South Africa, the Philippines, Norway, Namibia, Paraguay, Gabon, Vietnam, Cote d’Ivoire, Slovakia, Hungary and the Czech Republic,Russia
Top Leaders Left C1 after Martin stole their earnings. So he failed miserable at his compliance Job, he never regained any country from security of fraud warnings.
Before this Martin failed as the CEO of:
Bitcoin-Economy (Seychelles mlm company)
PowerON Energy Token investment
Wentage One
Vemma Europe
Police Raids&arrests in the Stockholm office. Liquidation of the sister company Impact ICT.
All Companies where Martin Bylsma was the CEO they collapsed! Now you know what will happen to C1 looking at his CV.
