C1 executive Kenny Nordlund has confirmed its “Stratify” Tag Markets unregistered investment scheme has collapsed.

Fronting investors on a marketing webinar held on or around April 2nd, Nordlund stated;

[4:33] You probably or might have heard in your backoffice, C1 has communicated that they have ended the contract with Stratify and Tag Markets.

Which is their choice. Pretty strange that you don’t communicate with your partner but that’s another story.

BehindMLM first documented funneling of C1 (formerly Crowd1) victims into Tag Markets in October 2025.

Stratify saw C1 investors launder worthless CBIT tokens (issued through Crowd1) into Tag Markets, with an additional 1:1 investment in tether (USDT).

Passive returns through Stratify and Tag Markets were paid out under the ruse of “copy trading”. Sonic AI was the name of a purported trading strategy.

Sonic AI was also used in Exfusion, another Tag Markets investment scheme.

This was done on the promise of a passive return, which Tag Markets disabled on or around April 1st. BehindMLM has since received emails from C1 investors claiming they have been unable to withdraw.

In the lead up to C1’s Stratify collapse, Nordlund reveals several C1 insiders cashed out and left;

[7:12] There is a lot of people that have made the decision [over] the last couple of months, CEO, Network Director, to step down, resign from C1.

Also on Nordlund’s webinar was TagMarkets co-owner Niklas Freihofer:

As Nordlund sat next to him making awkward mouth movements, Freihofer shifted blame away from Tag Markets back onto Crowd1;

[9:43] Since C1 did not yet come through with their promise on their pledge, we slash Stratify decided they are giving the money that has been paid to C1.

That is going to be paid to the community of Stratify and how that’s going to work is pretty pretty easy. There’s going to be a pool and the money is going to be in that pool.

And every client with two and a half thousand dollars or five thousand dollars, so each two and a half thousand dollars that you have in your [Tag Markets] account are [sic] going to be one share in this pool.

Freihofer goes on to pitch Bit1, the latest Tag Markets fraudulent investment scheme launch. As Stratify was pitched to Crowd1 victims, Bit1 was initially pitched to Jeremy Roma’s Daisy Global Ponzi victims.

Following Stratify’s collapse, Nordlund claims C1 will be “working independently”.

Both C1 and Tag Markets are Dubai-based Ponzi factories. Over the years Nordlund, Freihofer and C1 owner Jonas Eric Wener have fled their respective native countries for Dubai.

Nordlund fronting C1 investors follows Jonas Werner disappearing. Werner’s last social media post in relation to C1 is dated November 3rd, 2025.

It’s not the first time Nordlund, a former OneCoin Ponzi “top leader”, has been in this position. In May 2022 Nordlund, as Crowd1 President, addressed ongoing payment delays.

C1, mostly as Crowd1, has a long history of regulatory fraud warnings and enforcement actions:

As Tag Markets continues to collapse and reboot new unregistered investment schemes, it too has been racking up regulatory fraud warnings:

In response to regulatory fraud warnings, Tag Markets’ website disclaimer has grown comically large;

Tag Markets  refrains from offering services to residents of Austria, Myanmar, Albania, Burkina Faso, Cayman Islands, Haiti, Jordan, Philippines, Syria, Vietnam, Yemen, UAE, Spain, Singapore, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Afghanistan and USA.

Important Notice. This platform is not intended for residents of the European Union.

Despite the pseudo-compliance notice above though, for March 2026 SimilarWeb primarily tracked Tag Markets’ website traffic from “restricted” jurisdictions; Germany (46%), the US (16%), United Kingdom (13%), Switzerland (5%) and Austria (4%).
