iX Global, LLC
A real trading-education subscription, resold alongside crypto node licenses priced up to $16,249 and marketed at up to $72,000 a year - the company and its CEO were named as defendants in a federal securities complaint, and the company itself announced it was shutting down in June 2024.
The company and its CEO were named as defendants in a federal securities complaint alleging a fabricated $49 million node-license scheme; the case was dismissed without prejudice on the regulator’s own procedural failures - neither a finding against the company nor a vindication of it - and the company itself announced it was shutting down in June 2024. This is not a live opportunity today; this report grades the historical offer.
Can you actually make money with iX Global?
No, and start with the plainest reason of all: there is nothing to join. The founder announced on 24 June 2024 that iX Global was shutting down, with a thirty-day window through 24 July for affiliates to withdraw remaining backoffice balances and no independent receiver or audit confirming that every balance was honored. What this report grades is the historical offer, as it stood. Every scenario on this page is worth zero today.
What was sold was a $124.99-a-month membership, $174.99 for the tier that unlocked full binary and VIP-bonus eligibility, and beside it node and CloudX positions running from $250 to $16,249 that were marketed at up to $72,000 a year. No independent operating business was ever shown anywhere to produce that return. On the compensation side, a participant relying on fast-start bonuses alone needed roughly 116 Pro-tier sales a year, about 9.7 a month, simply to cover their own membership.
The legal position has to be stated exactly, because it is easy to get wrong in either direction. The company and its chief executive were named as defendants in a federal securities complaint filed in Utah on 26 July 2023, alleging at least $49 million raised through fabricated mining claims and fictitious business partnerships. That case was dismissed without prejudice on the regulator's own procedural failures, for which the court sanctioned the regulator. A dismissal on those grounds is not a finding against the company. It is also not a vindication of it. The allegations were never tested, and no court has found anyone liable.
Two things belong on the credit side. A genuine education subscription existed and was delivered to paying subscribers - trading courses, alerts access and coaching content - which is more than several files graded here can say. And new node-license sales were voluntarily suspended after the 2023 action rather than pushed through the investigation, the company's own August 2023 statement said in writing that it offered no guarantees of return, and no admission of wrongdoing exists anywhere in the record reviewed.
Basic Membership; full binary and VIP-bonus eligibility requires the $174.99/month Premium tier, and separately, the capital-intensive node/CloudX product line ran from $250 to $16,249 per position
- The company would have to exist. Primary operations ceased on 24 June 2024, and the successor platform's first iteration had already collapsed that March, so there is no live offer for anything below to attach itself to.
- An income disclosure statement. None was ever located, despite targeted searches of the marketing pages, third-party archives and document-sharing sites, so nobody could say what typical participants earned while it was running.
- A retail-customer rule inside the compensation plan. Rank was expressed entirely through personally-recruited-affiliate counts and Group Volume, and neither of those requires a sale to somebody outside the structure.
- A verifiable business behind the node returns. Positions priced from $250 to $16,249 were marketed at up to $72,000 a year with no independent operating business shown anywhere in the record capable of generating it.
That call is computed, not chosen - the rule reads three of the nine published dimension scores and is printed on the methodology page. It describes this company's plan and the figures it publishes about the people already in it. It is not a prediction about you, and nothing on this site is advice.
Legal status
CONTESTED, NEVER ADJUDICATED - iX Global, LLC and its CEO, Joseph A. Martinez, were named as defendants in SEC v. Digital Licensing Inc., et al., No. 2:23-cv-00482 (D. Utah, filed 26 July 2023), alleging at least $49 million raised through a fabricated crypto “mining” node-license scheme. In 2024 the court found the SEC had misrepresented facts to obtain emergency relief and sanctioned the SEC directly (reported at roughly $1.8 million by one source and $2.1 million by another, unreconciled). On 28 May 2024 the court granted the SEC’s own request to dismiss the case without prejudice, explicitly declining the defendants’ request to dismiss with prejudice. A dismissal without prejudice on the regulator’s own procedural failures is neither a finding against the company nor a vindication of it - the underlying allegations were never tested on the merits, and that is true in both directions. There is no conviction, no indictment, no arrest of the company or its CEO, no consent judgment, and no admission of wrongdoing anywhere in the US record. Separately, in India, an affiliated entity and forex brand tied to the same founder network have drawn asset-freeze action from the Enforcement Directorate and investigations from the Reserve Bank of India, SEBI, and two state police forces - these are pre-trial investigative and asset-freeze measures against individuals and an Indian corporate vehicle, not against iX Global LLC as the US entity, and not adjudications; the persons and entities involved are presumed innocent, and the amounts reported are unreconciled across sources.

Follow the money
A Utah trading- and financial-education subscription business, launched in 2020, selling monthly membership tiers - Basic at $124.99, Pro at $145, Premium at $174.99 - through independent affiliates on a binary compensation plan, alongside a separately sold, capital-in investment product in crypto “node licences.”
The subscription side is a real product and it should be said first. Courses, an “AI trading bot” alerts service, and coaching and community access were delivered to paying subscribers, and the company’s own August 2023 public statement disclaimed guaranteed returns and described its role in the disputed node product candidly as a reseller rather than the manufacturer - a documented, if partial, mitigating fact worth crediting rather than dismissing.
Then the harder fact. iX Global, LLC - the company itself, not an affiliate or a loosely connected partner - was named as an entity defendant, and CEO Joseph A. Martinez individually, in SEC v. Digital Licensing Inc., filed 26 July 2023 in the District of Utah, alleging at least $49 million raised through node-license tokens marketed as “mined” crypto assets backed by real-world business partnerships the complaint alleges were fabricated or grossly overstated. That case was dismissed without prejudice on 28 May 2024, at the SEC’s own request, after the court found the SEC had misrepresented facts to obtain emergency relief and sanctioned the regulator directly (reported at roughly $1.8 million by one source and $2.1 million by another, unreconciled). Worth repeating in plain words: a dismissal on those grounds is neither a finding against the company nor a vindication of it - the underlying allegations were never tested on the merits, and there is no conviction, no admission, and no civil finding of liability anywhere.
Separately from the subscription, node licenses priced from $250 to $16,249 were marketed at up to $72,000 a year in return, with no operating business shown anywhere in the record to generate that figure - that is the fact this report’s securities-exposure score rests on, independent of the SEC case’s outcome. And on 24 June 2024, the founder announced on a company-wide call that the company was ceasing primary operations, giving affiliates a thirty-day window to withdraw backoffice balances, roughly three and a half years after the business began.
This is not a live opportunity today. The founder has stated related products continue under separate entities he still controls, and the operator’s own current website could not be reached by this research - a retrieval failure, not confirmation either way - but the historical offer graded here, at the point it was being actively sold, is what follows.
Where a modeled dollar of Pro-tier membership revenue was estimated to go
No official payout disclosure exists - this is a reasoned estimate built from the documented commission mechanics (fast-start rate, binary caps, VIP bonus tiers) and standard subscription-MLM cost structures, applied to a representative $145/month Pro-tier dollar. It is explicitly not a company-published figure.

Who runs it, and what they ran before
Named individually as one of thirteen defendants in the SEC’s civil complaint - a filed claim, never adjudicated. No court has found against him or against the company, and there is no conviction, no indictment, no arrest, and no admission anywhere in the US record. A prior venture he was involved with, a crypto/forex program already graded elsewhere on this site’s own ranking and not named here to avoid collision, reportedly collapsed in early 2020 amid its own unregistered-securities allegations. Announced the company’s June 2024 shutdown personally, on a company-wide call, rather than the operation disappearing without notice.
Per third-party reporting, previously an affiliate of the same prior venture described above, later positioned as a company co-founder in testimonials. No regulatory or criminal action against her individually could be located in any source reviewed.
Ran a prior venture, “IGOnline” (approximately December 2017 to December 2019), a forex-automation scheme that folded before this company launched; that branding reportedly transitioned into this company’s UK-facing marketing around March 2020. No regulatory or criminal action against her individually could be located.
Viraj Patil, later reported to hold a stake in the operation and to own or operate the affiliated TP Global FX forex brand, was arrested in India in December 2023; released on interim humanitarian bail in September 2024 to visit a critically ill parent; then re-arrested immediately when the bail bond was not furnished. This is a criminal proceeding against a promoter and affiliate, not against iX Global LLC as a corporate entity, and no conviction has been reported.
Registered address
Bountiful, Utah, USA
Placed in Bountiful, Utah by a corporate-directory listing (Dun & Bradstreet); no audited public accounts exist and no independent confirmation of the registered-agent filing was obtained, so this is reported as a directory listing rather than a primary state filing record. No company-wide revenue or profit figure was located anywhere in the record, including the litigation documents, which disclose only specific transfer amounts tied to individual relief defendants rather than a company-wide figure.
The veteran's checklist
Eight questions that decide whether this is a business or a transfer mechanism. Same eight, every review.
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Who legally owns it? |
WATCH
iX Global, LLC, a Utah limited liability company placed in Bountiful, Utah by a corporate-directory listing; no audited public accounts exist and no company-wide revenue figure was located anywhere in the record.
|
| What does it really cost? |
CONCERN
$124.99–$174.99 a month for membership, separate from a $250–$16,249 node-license product line; no refund once a payment processed, per third-party sourcing.
|
| Published income disclosure? |
CONCERN
None was ever located, despite targeted searches; one purported income-projection document could not be rendered by any research tool used.
|
| Regulatory action against the company, ever? |
RED
Named as an entity defendant, and its CEO individually, in a federal SEC complaint alleging $49 million or more; the case was dismissed without prejudice in May 2024 on the SEC’s own procedural failures, never adjudicated on the merits. No US state or foreign regulator order naming the company was located in a targeted search.
|
| What happened with the India enforcement actions? |
RED
Against an affiliated entity and forex brand, not against the US LLC by name, India’s Enforcement Directorate, Mumbai and West Bengal police, the Reserve Bank of India and SEBI have all taken asset-freeze or investigatory action. These are pre-trial measures; no adjudication was located, and the persons and entities involved are presumed innocent.
|
| Is the company still operating? |
WATCH
The founder announced a shutdown of primary operations on 24 June 2024; the operator’s current website could not be reached by this research, so present-day status is genuinely unconfirmed rather than confirmed either way.
|
| Can you get your money back? |
RED
No refund on any membership tier, per third-party sourcing; a unilateral thirty-day withdrawal window applied at the 2024 shutdown, with no independent audit confirming full payout.
|
| Merchant play or miner play? |
WATCH
Miner. Rank advancement runs on personally-recruited-affiliate counts and Group Volume, with no retail-customer rule found anywhere, and the fast-start bonus rewards a bigger downline rather than a bigger genuine customer base.
|
What has to be true for you to get paid
| To cover | You need |
|---|---|
| Hold the Basic tier for a year with no recruiting | $1,499.88/year Sunk cost; no independent revenue mechanism for the content itself was documented, so profit depends entirely on trading gains the product did not guarantee. |
| Break even on fast-start bonuses alone (Pro tier) | ~116 Pro-tier sales/year $1,740/yr membership ÷ $15 fast-start bonus per sale ≈ 9.7 sales a month - a pace far beyond ordinary friends-and-family recruiting. |
| Break even via a small binary team | ~$2,000/month in weaker-leg Group Volume 10% capped at $300/cycle → $200/cycle × 13 cycles = $2,600/yr against $1,740/yr membership = +$860/yr, contingent on sustained downline growth. |
| Recover a $16,249 leased CloudX node | undefined / unverifiable Marketed break-even of ~11.7 weeks assumes the $72,000/yr claim was real; no independent business was ever shown to generate it, so a realistic break-even cannot be modeled. |
Read this twice
All four scenarios model the historical offer while it was being actively sold; the company announced it was ceasing operations on 24 June 2024, so the present-day figure at every level in this table is zero - there is no current subscription to recoup, no current binary team to build, and no current node position to redeem beyond whatever could be withdrawn in the thirty-day window that closed on 24 July 2024. The arithmetic above is retained because it explains what a participant was actually being asked to believe while the offer was live, and because no company-published income disclosure was ever located to check it against.
Run your own numbers
Drag the sliders. Nothing here is stored or sent.
Read this calculator as history. The founder announced on 24 June 2024 that the company was ceasing operations, with a thirty-day window to withdraw remaining balances, so the present-day figure at every position on every slider is zero. What is modeled here is the offer as it stood: $15 is the reported flat direct and fast-start commission on a Pro-tier subscription, about 10.3% of the $145 monthly price, paid on a four-week cycle on a new sale or a renewal. The cost line is that same $145 subscription, which an affiliate had to hold to stay commissionable. The binary is excluded because it paid 10% to 20% on the weaker leg only, so roughly half of anything an affiliate built paid nothing at all, and because qualification required two personally enrolled affiliates placed one per side before it paid anything. The node licenses are excluded for a different and more important reason: at $250 to $16,249 they were capital handed over against a marketed return of up to $72,000 a year, not a product sold to a customer, and putting them on a commission slider would model an investment scheme rather than a business. The company described itself publicly as a reseller of those products and said it made no guarantees of return. No income disclosure was published at any point in the company’s life, so nothing here can be checked against a company figure. Your own subscription cost of $145/mo is included.
What it costs to replace this yourself
A rational buyer wanting market education and tools, without any income opportunity attached, could assemble the following at documented 2026 prices. No competitor named here is a company this site has already graded.
| What they sell you | What you'd use instead | Your cost |
|---|---|---|
| Pro-tier membership - $145/month ($1,740/yr) | A professional charting subscription, comparable tier | ~$407/yr |
| A forex/technical-analysis course bundled into the subscription | A comparable one-time forex/technical-analysis course on the open market | ~$20 one-time |
| Ongoing “market education” content | A MOOC-style subscription including university-taught finance coursework | ~$399/yr |
| “AI trading bot” alerts with no audited track record | A self-paced, professionally produced markets certificate | ~$249/yr |
| No independent credential documented anywhere in the offering | A one-time, portable, third-party-verified professional credential (one exam level) | ~$1,140–$1,490 one-time |
| CloudX node license, US leased - $16,249, marketed at up to $72,000/yr | No open-market equivalent exists for a fixed-return capital placement with no shown business behind it | not applicable |
| Total as sold ~$1,740/yr for the membership alone, excluding any node capital |
Total, built yourself ~$1,075 for the first year of the core recurring stack; ~$2,215 including the one-time credential |
Price-to-value
Roughly 38% cheaper for a comparable recurring stack, while adding a recognized professional credential and university-taught content this offering never documented having. The node licenses sit outside this comparison entirely, because there is no open-market product that takes a fixed sum against a fixed marketed return with no shown business behind it - that is not a pricing gap, it is the entire reason this report exists.

Methodology note. ANCHORED to the brief’s documented pricing and commission mechanics: the $124.99 / $145 / $174.99 monthly tiers, the $15 (~10.3%) Pro-tier fast-start bonus, the 10%–20% binary rate structure capped from $300 to $1,000,000 per four-week cycle, and the $250–$16,249 CloudX node pricing marketed at up to $72,000 a year. MODELED by us, because no official income disclosure was ever located for this company: the cohort definitions, the share of each cohort in cumulative profit, and the dollar path between the documented endpoints in the brief’s own break-even scenarios. These are modeled outcome ranges, not claims of what any specific person earned. The single fact that overrides every other number in this table: the founder announced on 24 June 2024 that the company was ceasing primary operations, giving affiliates a thirty-day window to withdraw backoffice balances with no independent audit or receiver confirming full payout. Whatever a cohort’s trajectory looked like while the company operated, the present-day figure at every level, in every profile, is zero - there is no current subscription, no current binary team, and no current node position, because the company is no longer operating. These profiles model the historical offer, not a live opportunity.

We would like to be wrong about this
Upward
- Independent, audited confirmation that any current successor product has fully discontinued every capital-in, fixed-return node structure and operates solely as a flat-fee content subscription with a genuine retail-customer requirement.
- A published, third-party-audited income disclosure statement - something that has never existed for this company at any point in its documented history.
- Confirmation, backed by an independent audit or receiver rather than the company’s own account, that every affiliate and node-license holder from the June 2024 shutdown recovered their funds in full.
Downward
- A refiled and successful SEC judgment against the company or its principals, or a US state or foreign securities regulator order specifically naming the company.
- Confirmed evidence that CloudX or a similarly structured passive-return product is still being actively sold in 2026 under any of this founder network’s brand names.
- Confirmed evidence, via a primary law-enforcement document, that the CEO is a fugitive with an active international arrest warrant, or that shutdown-era withdrawal requests were not honored.
Grade is F. A real education product and a candid public disclaimer, attached to a resold crypto node product marketed at up to $72,000 a year, a federal complaint naming the company and its CEO, and a June 2024 shutdown.
Two things here are genuinely better than the file’s reputation suggests, and they deserve to be said first. The subscription content - trading courses, alerts access, coaching - was a real product delivered to paying subscribers, not itself a claim on pooled capital. And the company’s own August 2023 public statement is unusually candid for this category: it says, in writing, that it offers “no guarantees of ROI,” and it describes its role in the disputed node product as a reseller rather than the manufacturer. That is a documented, if self-serving, attempt at a disclaimer, and it is worth crediting rather than waving away.
Then the harder record. The company itself, not an affiliate or a loosely connected partner, was named as an entity defendant, and its CEO individually, in a federal complaint alleging at least $49 million raised through a node-license scheme marketed as “mined” crypto assets backed by real-world business partnerships the complaint alleges were fabricated. That case was dismissed without prejudice in May 2024, at the SEC’s own request, after the court found the SEC had misrepresented facts to the court and sanctioned the regulator directly. It has to be said plainly, more than once: a dismissal without prejudice on the regulator’s own procedural failures is neither a finding against the company nor a vindication of it. The underlying allegations - fabricated business partnerships, unregistered securities, tokens marketed as mined that were not - were never tested on the merits, in either direction. There is no conviction, no consent judgment, and no admission anywhere in the US record.
Separately from the litigation, the structural fact that drives this report’s low `sec` score stands on its own: node licenses priced from $250 to $16,249 were marketed at up to $72,000 a year, with no operating business ever shown to generate that figure. And the company itself confirms the outcome that matters most to anyone weighing this today - its own founder announced on a company-wide call, on 24 June 2024, that primary operations were ceasing, with a thirty-day window for affiliates to withdraw backoffice balances and no independent audit confirming that every balance was honored. In India, an affiliated entity and forex brand tied to the same founder network have drawn asset-freeze action and investigations from the central bank, the securities regulator, the Enforcement Directorate, and two state police forces, and a senior promoter has been arrested twice - all of it pre-trial, none of it adjudicated, and none of it a finding against the US company by name. Put together, this is a file where the historical facts are unusually well-documented, and where none of them, taken individually, proves the fraud the complaint alleged - but where the company no longer exists to test that question either.
Do not evaluate this as a live opportunity
The founder announced a shutdown in June 2024 and the operator’s current site could not be reached by this research. Whatever is on a pitch today describes a defunct or unconfirmed operation, not a functioning business - verify independently before sending money anywhere near this name.
Separate the course from the node before judging either
A trading-education subscription and a fixed-return capital placement are different risk categories entirely. If a recruiter blends the two in one pitch, ask which one is actually being sold - a $145 course and a $16,249 node license do not belong in the same sentence.
Read the dismissal correctly, in both directions
The SEC’s case against this company was dismissed without prejudice on the regulator’s own procedural failures. That is not a finding of fraud, and it is also not an exoneration - the underlying allegations were never tested on the merits. Anyone citing this case as proof of either innocence or guilt is overstating the record.
Get trading education from a credentialed, portable source instead
A charting subscription, a university-taught MOOC, a Bloomberg-branded certificate, and a CFA Level I registration together cost less than this company’s own Pro-tier membership and carry independent, third-party-recognized credentials this offering never documented having.

What we could not get
- Whether any current product under this founder network is being actively sold in 2026 - the operator’s website could not be reached by this research
- The exact court-sanction fee amount against the SEC - reported at roughly $1.8 million by one source and $2.1 million by another, not reconciled against a primary court filing
- The India Enforcement Directorate’s total asset-freeze figure - reported as roughly ₹75 crore in one summary and ₹263 crore in another, alongside a separate ₹55.44 crore, 392-investor figure specific to Mumbai cases; none of these figures has been reconciled
- Whether the CEO is a “fugitive” wanted by Indian authorities - this rests on a single MLM-watchdog source and was not corroborated against a primary law-enforcement document
- Whether an official income disclosure statement exists at all - none was located publicly, but a backoffice-only version cannot be ruled out
- The exact current refund and cancellation terms - the operator’s site could not be reached, so no verbatim policy language could be checked against the third-party review this report relies on
- Whether the UK-registered company sharing this name has any connection to the Utah entity - no evidentiary link was found in either direction
- The aggregate customer-review rating for the operator’s primary domain - the review page returned an access error and could not be retrieved

Author, editor and publisher
This report was researched and written by Claude, Anthropic’s AI assistant, working from primary documents - iX Global’s own compensation plan, its policies and procedures, its terms of service, its income disclosure statement where one exists, and its regulatory and self-regulatory file. It was scored against nine weighted dimensions that are published in full, with their weights, on the methodology page.
Before publication it was reviewed by Rob Fore, who checks every source link, every figure against the document it came from, and every allegation against its stage-label - an investigation is not a finding, a warning letter is not an enforcement action, and a filed claim is not a verdict.
The editor does not set the grade. The published score is the weighted composite of the nine dimension scores, and the build refuses to emit a page where the two disagree by more than 0.06. A grade moves when the evidence moves it and not otherwise.
Rob Fore has marketed online since 1996, wrote Online MLM Marketing (2014), and is CEO of Listech Inc, the Nevada corporation that publishes this site. He holds affiliate positions in companies graded here - including LiveGood, which this site grades D, SendOutCards, which it grades C−, and the Home Business Academy, which it grades B−. Those positions are disclosed on the reports they touch, and changed nothing on this page.

Tell me if this grade changes
iX Global is graded F as of August 1, 2026. Grades move when the evidence moves - a new income disclosure, a regulatory action, a rewritten compensation plan. Leave your address and you will get one email if this one does.
One email when the grade moves, and nothing else. We will never use your address to promote an income opportunity of any kind, we do not sell, rent or share the list, and it is stored on our own infrastructure rather than with any company graded here. Unsubscribe removes everything.
Corrections
Every factual claim on this page is sourced, and the ones we could not stand up are named in the unable to verify list above. If something here is wrong, we want to know, and we would rather hear it from iX Global than from a reader.
Write to corrections@opportunitygrade.com. Point at the specific sentence and send the document that contradicts it - a plan document, a filing, an income disclosure, a policy page. We will check it against the primary source, correct the page if it is wrong, and say in the report that it was corrected and when. A grade moves if the evidence moves it.
This address reaches a person, not a form. We do not require a takedown demand, an NDA or a lawyer to accept a correction, and we do not remove a report because a company disputes its conclusion - only because the underlying facts turn out to be wrong.
