Ponzi schemes are named after Charles Ponzi, an Italian swindler who, in the early 1920s, defrauded hundreds of victims with his deceptive money-making system that ran for over a year. In essence, a Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment scam where returns to existing investors are paid from funds contributed by new investors. The flaw lies in the fact that investors in the latter stages may never receive any returns.
The operation of a Ponzi scheme typically follows these steps:
A promoter takes $1000 from an investor, promising to repay the initial amount plus a 10% interest at the end of a set period (e.g., 90 days).The promoter secures two more investors before the 90-day period elapses, using their $2000 to pay the first investor $1100. The first investor is often encouraged to reinvest the initial $1000.By recruiting new investors, the fraudster can fulfill the promised returns to earlier investors, urging them to reinvest and bring in more participants.As the scheme expands, the promoter must continuously attract new investors to sustain it and meet the promised returns.Ultimately, the scheme becomes unsustainable, leading to the promoter's exposure or disappearance with the accumulated funds.

I didn't know what Cryptocurrency is, no one taught me, just received the link from my friend known

...

as ( I put the name confidential due to privacy)

He told me many things that when I invest $100 I will be getting interest of 2% which is equivalent to $2 daily. In short, I didn't know anything, he continues telling me, when you invite other people you will also get 10% for each person you invite if he/she deposits $100 means you will get $10 which is a 10% for his/her investment of $100 respectively, then if he/she deposits $1000 for the first time means you will get again $100 as 10% from his/her investment.

How were we depositing money?

We were depositing money by first buying Bitcoin at that time we were buying Bitcoins at Localbitcoins. So if you want to invest $1000 you were supposed to buy at Localbitcoins and deposit into btcbrace which gave us a registered company in the UK as seen below 👇

So at that time seeing the above certificate was like proof that was a legit company therefore we continued to believe and put more of our money into it.

Also, we asked many questions, one the question was: How the company is profitable if every day giving people 2% for their investments? The answer was as follows

We do Bitcoin mining

We trade forex

We dump &

Pumping Bitcoin ( look at here the way we were ignorant because they look like something big for our lives very very funny 🤣)

These are the main income where we get profits to share with investors. 😂 (Very crazy tricks to trap prey. So that was their answer 🤣)

Below were the criteria followed for how to benefit from the btcbrace Ponzi Scheme company:

From the above italic words, you should know that I'm not promoting just to show you how Ponzi schemes use many tricks for aim running away with people's money

Therefore above is the way how we had been scammed by this Ponzi Scheme. Many Ponzi Schemes have the same characteristics as above. So make sure you teach your close how not involved into Ponzi Schemes Platforms!

What I learned from there?

I learned many things because after being scammed I started to do my research on why we used Bitcoin to deposit into Ponzi Scheme, so I started learning the characteristics of Bitcoin how was it invented, and what was the main reason it was invented. These were the questions that led me in the right direction until I joined Binance Exchange in the Earl year of 2020.

I continued to read Bitcoin whitepaper and started to know more about the secret of Bitcoin and other technologies behind Bitcoin like Cryptography, Blockchain technology, the evolution of money, the evolution of the web and so many things like nowadays Web 3.0, Metaverse, Non-Fungible Token (NFT) which now available on Binance NFT marketplace where you can buy and sell your artwork.

I have many things to tell about my Crypto Journey but today let's end up here, the thing you should understand cryptocurrency is real you better start learning its advantages and disadvantages, especially using Binance Academy where you can learn many things about Blockchain technology, Cryptocurrency, Metaverse, Web 3.0, NFT

The big thing here is to learn everybody has his/her Crypto Journey story other started first by joining Ponzi Scheme while others started with a real Crypto Journey Using Binance.

Question: Which Ponzi Scheme did you join the first time before knowing the reality of Cryptocurrencies?

Introduction

In recent years, the world of cryptocurrencies has gained immense popularity, attracting both seasoned investors and newcomers eager to ride the digital currency wave. Nigeria, known for its vibrant tech-savvy population, has not been immune to this crypto craze. However, with the rising interest in cryptocurrencies, a darker trend has emerged - the surge of crypto Ponzi schemes that prey on unsuspecting individuals seeking quick and lucrative returns.

The Allure of Quick Profits

Ponzi schemes in the crypto world promise the allure of quick profits, claiming to offer extraordinary returns on investments within a short period. Many Nigerians, eager to secure their financial futures, fall victim to these scams, unaware of the potential risks that lie ahead. These fraudulent schemes promise higher yields than legitimate investments and exploit the lack of financial literacy surrounding digital currencies.

How Do Crypto Ponzi Schemes Work?

In a typical crypto Ponzi scheme, the initial investors are paid with the money from new investors, creating the illusion of genuine profits. As the scheme grows, more people are encouraged to invest, unaware that the scheme's foundation is built on deception. Eventually, when new investors stop joining, the scheme collapses, leaving a trail of financial devastation for those who invested their hard-earned money.

Identifying the Red Flags

Recognizing and avoiding crypto Ponzi schemes is crucial in safeguarding your finances. Here are some red flags to watch out for:

Unrealistic Promises: If an investment opportunity promises exorbitant returns with little or no risk, exercise caution. Remember, all investments carry some degree of risk.

Lack of Transparency: Genuine investments provide clear and transparent information about their offerings. If the details are vague or hard to understand, it might be a sign of a scam.

Pressure to Invest Quickly: Scammers often use urgency and fear of missing out to pressure individuals into making hasty investment decisions. Take your time and conduct thorough research before investing.

Absence of Regulatory Compliance: Legitimate investment opportunities adhere to regulatory guidelines. If the scheme lacks proper licensing or registration, it is likely a scam.

Protecting Yourself from Scams

As the crypto landscape continues to evolve, protecting yourself from scams is essential. Here are some steps to stay safe:

Educate Yourself: Understand the basics of cryptocurrencies and how legitimate investments work. Knowledge is your best defense against scams.

Verify Information: Always verify the legitimacy of an investment opportunity, and seek advice from financial professionals if needed.

Stick to Reputable Platforms: Trade and invest in cryptocurrencies on reputable and regulated platforms that prioritize security and customer protection.

Closing thoughts

As the use of cryptocurrencies grows in Nigeria, so does the risk of falling victim to crypto Ponzi schemes. Stay vigilant and skeptical of any investment that promises extraordinary returns with little effort. Remember, if an opportunity sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Protect your hard-earned money by investing wisely and staying informed about potential risks in the dynamic world of digital currencies.

The Austrian Supreme Court has ruled that Lyoness’ affiliate contract and compensation plan are illegal.The decision follows legal action taken by the Austrian Association for Consumer Information (VKI). In Austria’s lower courts, VKI argued47 contractual clauses that were part of Lyconet agreements and so-called Lyconet compensation plans … (lacked) transparent regulations and … clarity.VKI’s lawsuit was decided in its favor. The Supreme Court’s ruling reaffirms earlier rulings and is final.As per a January 11th press-release from VKI, specific Lyoness agreement clauses they took issue with were 3-2019, 9-2019 and 1-2021. Compensation clauses include 3-2019, 9-2019 and 1-2021.A large number of the contested clauses were found by the courts to be non-transparent. For example, terms such as “Bonus Units”, “Customer Units”, “Follow-up Units”, “Transfer Units”, “Lifeline”, “Upline”, “Balance Program”, “Career Program”, “Balance Category”, and “Balance Commission” were used, but their specific meaning remained unclear.The first court already stated that these are not terms of general language use and that they are in themselves incomprehensible without further context.They are also not explained sufficiently clearly throughout Lyconet’s rules and regulations.The appeal court added that even after intensive study of the entire set of regulations, it remains completely unclear for average consumers when and to what extent they acquire rights to which remuneration.The Supreme Court has now confirmed this view.As per the Supreme Court’s decision;Affected Lyconet contracts are invalid and consumers can demand a full refund of the payments they have made.Lyoness, aka Lyconet, Cashback World and myWorld, is owned and operated by Austrian national Hubert Freidl (below).Austrian courts previously finding Lyoness to be a pyramid scheme. A related January 11th article from ORF, the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation, cited “over 400 court cases” in Austria alone.Despite this, Freidl is still a free man.Freidl had Lyoness declare bankruptcy in Europe last November. According to filings Lyoness is $110 million in debt. Whether this was a ploy to avoid paying out victims and/or evading criminal proceedings is unclear. Freidl abandoned his FaceBook profile in July 2023. November 2023 posts on Freidl’s Instagram page reveal attempts at marketing Lyoness across Asia, specifically Malaysia.#CryptoScamAwareness #Lyoness #Lyconet #ponzischeme #CryptoScamExposed

Memes and cryptocurrency have both gained massive popularity in recent years, but while cryptocurrency has been viewed by many as a legitimate investment opportunity, memes are often seen as nothing more than a silly pastime. However, the rise of meme-based cryptocurrencies has challenged this perception and raised questions about the negative impact they may have on the broader adoption of cryptocurrency.



First, it's important to understand what a meme-based cryptocurrency is. These are cryptocurrencies that are based on popular internet memes or jokes. The most famous of these is Dogecoin, which was created in 2013 as a joke but has since gained a cult following and a market capitalization of over $60 billion. Other meme-based cryptocurrencies include Shiba Inu, SafeMoon, and ElonGate.

So why have meme-based cryptocurrencies become so popular? One reason is that they tap into the cultural zeitgeist and the popularity of memes in modern internet culture. They also appeal to a younger demographic who may be more interested in investing in something that feels fun and relatable rather than a more serious investment opportunity.

However, there are several reasons why meme-based cryptocurrencies are viewed negatively in the broader context of cryptocurrency. For one, they are often seen as a distraction from more legitimate cryptocurrencies and investment opportunities. The fact that they are based on memes rather than real-world use cases or technology innovations means that their long-term value is questionable at best.

Furthermore, the hype around meme-based cryptocurrencies has led to a proliferation of fraudulent and scam projects that prey on inexperienced investors. Many of these projects use the same tactics as Ponzi schemes, where early investors are paid off with the investments of later investors. When the hype dies down, the value of these projects often collapses, leaving many investors with significant losses.

The negative impact of meme-based cryptocurrencies on the broader adoption of cryptocurrency is also a concern. By perpetuating the idea that cryptocurrency is a joke or a scam, they may discourage serious investors and businesses from getting involved in the space. This could slow down the development and adoption of legitimate cryptocurrency projects that have the potential to make a real impact on the economy and society.

In conclusion, while meme-based cryptocurrencies may be fun and appealing to a younger demographic, they are often viewed as a negative development in the broader context of cryptocurrency. Their lack of real-world use cases and long-term value, as well as the proliferation of fraudulent projects, may ultimately harm the credibility and legitimacy of the entire cryptocurrency space.

Moreover, the volatile nature of meme-based cryptocurrencies and their susceptibility to market manipulation pose significant risks to investors. The value of these cryptocurrencies can fluctuate wildly based on social media trends and online hype, making them incredibly unpredictable. This can lead to inexperienced investors making impulsive decisions based on FOMO (fear of missing out) and ultimately suffering significant financial losses.

Additionally, the lack of regulation in the cryptocurrency space exacerbates these risks. Unlike traditional investment opportunities, cryptocurrencies are not subject to the same level of oversight and regulation by government agencies. This leaves investors vulnerable to scams and fraud, with little recourse for recovering lost funds.

Despite these concerns, meme-based cryptocurrencies continue to attract a large following and generate significant media attention. The recent surge in popularity of NFTs (non-fungible tokens), which are unique digital assets that can be bought and sold on blockchain networks, has only added to the hype surrounding these types of investments.

It's important to remember that while meme-based cryptocurrencies may seem like a fun and easy way to make a quick profit, they come with significant risks and should be approached with caution. Serious investors should focus on legitimate cryptocurrencies that have real-world use cases and are backed by reputable companies and developers.

Ultimately, the long-term success of cryptocurrency as a legitimate investment opportunity will depend on the development of innovative technologies and use cases that can drive real-world adoption and value. While meme-based cryptocurrencies may have a place in the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem, they should not be viewed as a substitute for legitimate investment opportunities.

There I said it and I stand by it. Meme coins are just a fun Pozi scheme.

Why:

The nature of meme coins, Meme coins are in other words coins made as a joke. The whole point of buying this coin/token is to hopefully be able to dump these tokens on someone else for some profit. Thats IT. When you buy a meme coin your someone else's liquidity. You buy a meme coin not because you think the coin will have a use case in the future but because you think you can dump it on another guy. And that guy thinks he can dump it on another guy, etc, etc. All until the guy doesn't have anyone to sell the coin to and the price plummets. I just described a Ponzi.

Why do people buy meme coins in the first place? Well because they see people posting 100000000% gains. You get greedy so when some random guy on Twitter tells you that X coin will flip eth you drop your whole bag in. Then either 2 things happen. A) Coin gets rugged you sad. B) Coin goes up! Your in the green but instead of selling you and others start shilling the coin everywhere hoping to pump more! You get stuck in an echo chamber. Fuel ends and you're holding the bag. You are sad.

The difference between meme coins and other coins is well other coins have actual use cases. You buy other coins, yes because you think you can sell it for more but chances are you believe in the coins tech's future success so it will reach your desired price.

Meme coin = Pure hype

Other coins = You believe in the success of the tech

So TLDR: Every time you buy a meme coin, your hoping you can sell it to someone else for more. But chances are once you hear about the coin its already at or close to the peak. DYOR as always and always assume meme coins will go to 0. As the majority do.

Khovratov, being the general director of Academy of Private Investor LLC, together with an accomplice who is on the wanted list and other unidentified persons, created a website accessible to an unlimited number of people, informing that anyone can become a co-owner, shareholder, shareholder, shareholder of the global an investment fund operating in all segments and sectors of the investment market.The accomplices misled users of the Internet resource by providing deliberately false information that the investments would make it possible to implement the program of the New Economic Evolution of the World, created by Khovratov, and to receive high investment income.In order to make a profit, the misled victims purchased cryptocurrency from the defendants, transferring funds to accounts controlled by them.The members of the organized group distributed the funds received from the victims among themselves, evading their obligations to pay dividend income from investing in cryptocurrency, as well as to return the funds.An unnamed accomplice of Khovratov’s remains wanted by Russian authorities.#Evorich #ponzischeme #mlm #pyramidscheme #CryptoScamExposed
