Only 1 Week provide no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.

The Only 1 Week website domain (“only1week.es”) was registered on January 16th, 2017. Antonio Soto is listed as the domain owner.

Further research reveals Only 1 Week affiliates naming Soto (right) as CEO of the company. Why this information isn’t provided on the Only 1 Week website is unclear.

On his Facebook profile, Soto (full name: Antonio Soto Cortes) claims to be living in Málaga, Spain.

Prior to launching Only 1 Week, Soto was promoting Richmond Berks (Ponzi scheme), Win and Live (pyramid scheme), Five2BTC (cash gifting) and CommHubb (pyramid scheme).

Read on for a full review of the Only 1 Week MLM opportunity.

Only 1 Week Products

Only 1 Week has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market Only 1 Week affiliate membership itself.

The Only 1 Week Compensation Plan

Only 1 Week affiliates gift bitcoin to each other via a three-tier matrix cycler.

Matrix sizes used in the Only 1 Week cycler are 1×2 and 1×3.

A 1×2 matrix is simple in nature, requiring only two positions to be filled:

A 1×3 matrix adds an additional position to be filled.

Positions in each matrix are filled via direct and indirect recruitment of Only 1 Week affiliates, who each gift new funds into the system.

Existing Only 1 Week affiliates collect those funds as follows:

  • Phase 1, Matrix 1 (1×3) – gift 0.03 BTC and receive 0.03 BTC from three affiliates
  • Phase 1, Matrix 2 (1×2) – gift 0.09 BTC and receive 0.09 BTC from two affiliates
  • Phase 2, Matrix 1 (1×3) – gift 1 BTC and receive 1 BTC from three affiliates
  • Phase 2, Matrix 1 (1×2) – gift 3 BTC and receive 3 BTC from two affiliates
  • Phase 3, Matrix 1 (1×3) – gift 5 BTC and receive 5 BTC from three affiliates
  • Phase 3, Matrix 2 (1×2) – gift 15 BTC and receive 15 BTC from two affiliates

Each time a position cycles out of both matrices at any Phase level, Only 1 Week collect a fee as follows:

  • Phase 1 – 0.03 BTC
  • Phase 2 – 1 BTC
  • Phase 3 – 5 BTC

This collected fee is split between the company and the recruiting affiliate to pay a referral commission.

Joining Only 1 Week

Only 1 Week affiliate membership is free, however an affiliate must gift at least 0.03 BTC to participate in the attached income opportunity.

Conclusion

Having participated in a wide range of MLM underbelly schemes throughout 2016, Antonio Soto Cortes has evidently realized running scams is far more profitable than losing money in them.

And so we have Only 1 Week, a bitcoin gifting scheme operated through a matrix cycler.

In Only 1 Week nothing is marketed to or sold to retail customers. Instead newly recruited affiliates directly gift bitcoin to the affiliate who recruited them.

Those funds are passed up at each Phase matrix tier, with the bulk of gifted funds ultimately paid out to preloaded admin positions owned by Soto.

The name of the company suggests it takes about a week to cycle. In reality, as with all gifting schemes, once affiliate recruitment dies down so too will new funds entering the scheme.

This will blow out cycle times well beyond a week, eventually causing the entire scam to collapse. The nature of a gifting cycler will see the majority of Only 1 Week affiliates lose money.
