Cryptocurrency Ponzi Schemes
Ponzi schemes are fraudulent investment operations where returns are paid to earlier investors using the capital of newer investors, not from profit earned. They collapse when the flow of new investors dries up, leaving the latest participants with total losses. In crypto, this often involves fake tokens, reward-based recruitment programs, or deceptive staking platforms.
Ponzi Schemes
A Ponzi scheme is an investment fraud that pays existing investors using money collected from new investors. The organizer often claims to invest your money in legitimate opportunities and promises high returns with little or no risk. But in many Ponzi schemes, the money is not actually invested. Instead, it is used to pay earlier investors to create the illusion of profits. Some of the money is also kept by the fraudster.
