Ⅰ Is the pocc platform regulated? Is it a pyramid scheme in the name of blockchain?
Before 2019, I had not been exposed to the digital currency industry, just a novice. The foundation for the whole year of 2019, I also have a little bit of my own experience, and I will share with you, right or wrong. Comments are welcome.
1. Ask how many people who answered have played this POCC.
2. All items are fake at the beginning. Trust me. But in the process of doing it, it is successful.
Third, winners and losers, Bitcoin has successfully achieved a market size of $1 trillion today, if it fails, it is a liar.
Fourth, in addition to the risk of mainstream digital currency is less (not without risk), similar to Bitcoin, Tether, Ethereum and so on. Other small-cap altcoins are high risk. How to determine the size or market value of a digital currency, recommend a software (non-small).
5. No need to think about supervision, there is basically no guarantee, it all depends on your own control and understanding of the project. The daring starve to the death of the timid.
6. To judge whether a project is safe, it is necessary to have a deep understanding and communicate with the team more. You have to be clear about what the team wants to do, whether to run away to raise money to raise money, or do you really want to do something!
Seven, how to judge the quality of a project?
There are roughly two points: the way to enter the market, the rate of return for developing downlines
Is it simply taking money to the project side? Is it outrageous to share the benefits of developing offline?
As far as I know, the POCC model is to spend money to buy digital currency POC, then use POC to exchange for mining machines, mining machines produce mines, and sell them on exchanges. The pattern is very similar to Bitcoin, but different. Moreover, during the transaction process, the project party does not receive the money at all, and they all buy and sell by themselves. This greatly limits the project party’s misappropriation of money. And basically a mining machine can be realized once every 6 days. It is also very secure for funds. Secondly, the development offline, you can get about 3 POCCs every day, this should not be outrageous.
1. At present, all digital currency supervision is not perfect, including Bitcoin (the originator level that has been developed for 12 years), Ethereum, EOS and other top digital currencies in the world.
2. Make it clear that you are not a pyramid scheme. You can understand POCC as a startup company. He wants to go public (make it into a big currency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, EOS). If you succeed, everyone will benefit. If you fail, you will also be rewarded. Does not affect your investment, because you can pay for it in 6 months.
3. Those who say they have been defrauded, publish their ID, or your currency holding address, and the platform will check the records for you to see if you have been deceived.
4, POCC Pippi shrimp public chain, use (non-small) to inquire about relevant information, non-small is a professional third-party information website, all digital currencies can be inquired.
5. As far as I know, there are a group of professional trolls on the Internet. First, they publish negative news to attract attention and increase their traffic. The second is to coerce the platform to ask for hush money.
6. Since September 2018, it has not lost 1 point and is still operating steadily. The benefits are always the same. Your friends have tried it, earned it, and recommended it to you. If you are still hesitating, go to the Internet to find people who have never played the project at all. As a reference, you will never make money.
7. Many people have been deceived by the blockchain and various funds, and you have heard and seen them. But you just weren’t involved.
8. Those who say pulling heads, Douyin Speed Version Toutiao Speed Version not pulling heads? WeChat does not pull people’s heads in the early days? Alipay does not attract people in the early stage? Does the network not pull people in the early days?
9. Any project is inseparable from fans and fans, in order to grow and continue, and fans come in only to gain, not to lose, just like stocks, those who hold original shares will earn no matter what, and those who lose are secondary market.
10. I hope those who are blindfolded and talk nonsense will experience it. Take a screenshot of BB again.
II vtoken is a scam or something
vtoken is a pyramid scheme.
A platform for pyramid selling under the guise of blockchain. Its predecessor was Micropai, which entered the market from one to one. It fell 1,000 times a year later. Hurt countless people. So it was changed to vtoken. After deceiving countless people, it is now changed to v payment (paydex). The MLM bosses have changed tricks and deceived people to enter the market to pay for them.
Introduction
On April 21, 1998, pyramid selling was completely prohibited. In August 2017, four departments including the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Public Security issued a notice requiring Severely crack down on and ban pyramid selling organizations in accordance with the law. The notice emphasizes that all kinds of pyramid selling organizations that lure job seekers to join under the guise of “entrepreneurship and employment”, under the guise of “recruitment” and “job introduction”, will be banned according to law.
The latest judgment was made by the court on May 2, 2018. 65 kinds of “pyramid coins” involved more than 10 billion yuan, and more than 10 million people bought them.
Ⅲ Is the blockchain a pyramid scheme in disguise?
Blockchain?� The new technology is not MLM in disguise. It is just claimed by many MLM organizations as “blockchain”. In fact, there is no technology. This announcement was issued to combat such pyramid schemes. The following is Xinhuanet’s report on blockchain pyramid schemes:
Blockchain is not equal to virtual currency, and there are also security risks. Only by removing the gaudy can the blockchain return to its true application value.
The investment of 80,000 yuan will become 800,000 yuan after three months? Shenzhen police cracked a huge fund-raising fraud case. Under the guise of the blockchain concept and 10 times the income, thousands of investors were deeply involved, and the amount involved was as high as 307 million yuan. Under the “mysterious veil” of the blockchain, criminals have taken advantage of their crooked brains, and the blockchain has become a “signboard” for economic crimes such as fraud and pyramid schemes.
Why has the blockchain been repeatedly “used” by illegal acts such as pyramid schemes? In addition to “unknown”, what is the “function” of blockchain technology itself? Since the beginning of this year, with the strengthening of supervision, the cooling down of currency speculation has brought new opportunities for the development of blockchain. How is the implementation of blockchain commercial “applications”? “Lookout” Newsweek reporter recently conducted an investigation.
When the three-month “fund release period” promised by the trading platform expired and the staff began to “kick people” in the QQ group, Tang Haiyan, who lives in Bao’an District, Shenzhen, realized that she might have been deceived .
Previously, Tang Haiyan invested 80,000 yuan to buy a virtual currency called “Public Silver Coin” under the introduction of her classmates. “The other party said that this currency is the most advanced blockchain technology, with Tibetan tea as collateral, and showed me the ‘technical white paper’. I don’t understand blockchain, so I didn’t read it carefully.”
Although I don’t know much about blockchain and virtual currency, the high investment income makes Tang Haiyan full of expectations. She told reporters that the company issuing the “Plain Silver Coin” will regularly split the virtual currency at a ratio of 1 to 10, which means that each split will increase the value of the “Plain Silver Coin” in the hands of investors by 10 times. . As long as it is split once, the 80,000 yuan she invests is equivalent to buying 800,000 yuan worth of “general silver coins”, and she can get huge profits by selling it on the trading platform.
According to the rules of the trading platform, the “Public Silver Coins” just purchased cannot be traded immediately, and must be frozen on the platform for three months before the “release period” can be ushered in. However, when three months passed, Tang Haiyan not only did not wait for the doubled assets, but also the 80,000 yuan frozen on the platform could not be used for transactions.
“Other investors began to question the authenticity of the investment in the QQ group, and as a result, the staff of the company kicked out these investors one by one. I feel bad,” she said.
The fact also proved Tang Haiyan’s intuition. At the end of March 2018, Shenzhen police detected a huge fund-raising fraud case with a total of 307 million yuan in fraudulent funds. In this case, the Shenzhen Puyin Blockchain Group Co., Ltd. was involved in issuing virtual currency in the model of “blockchain + Tibetan tea” to extract public deposits. Tang Haiyan was one of the thousands of victims. .
Shenzhen police investigation found that the company claimed that investors could buy and sell “Public Silver Coins” on the virtual trading platform “Jubi.com” to earn the price difference
. In fact, the change in its buying and selling price is that the company used investors’ investment funds for behind-the-scenes operations, and once raised the price of “Public Silver Coins” from 0.5 yuan to 10 yuan, allowing investors to taste some sweetness. When a large number of investors entered the market, the company continuously cashed out by maliciously manipulating the price trend of “Public Silver Coin”, which eventually made the “Plain Silver Coin” in the hands of investors worthless.
Since 2018, fraud and pyramid schemes under the banner of blockchain have become a common “routine” in new criminal methods. In April 2018, Jinan police took down a pyramid selling gang under the guise of “Western Development”, “National Poverty Alleviation”, “Original Shares”, “Blockchain” and “E-commerce”, arrested more than ten main suspects, and froze the cases involved. There were more than 100 accounts and more than 300 million yuan of funds involved in the case were seized.
Jinan police introduced that Huileyi e-commerce company designed fake virtual disks on the Internet on the grounds that the country is vigorously developing the big data industry, and released so-called “treasure coins” and “precious coins” and other virtual currencies.
They first presented a certain amount of virtual currency to the newly joined MLM salesmen under the guise of gifting, and the price of each piece was tens of yuan, and then the virtual currency was artificially manipulated to appreciate all the way to more than 100 yuan or even several hundred yuan Yuan, attracting people who do not know the truth to join, and finally “cut leeks” through the cyclical fluctuations of the so-called “depreciation” of virtual currency, and it goes on and on, and finally achieves the purpose of seeking illegal benefits.
In Xi’an, the local police also�Cracked a huge online pyramid scheme under the banner of blockchain. According to the police, the criminal suspect, Zheng Mou, organized 9 people, including Zhang Mou and Li Mou, who were the administrators of the network platform with high salary. Selling virtual “Datang Coins” on the “Consumption Era” online platform and manipulating the appreciation rate;
At the same time, promotion meetings are held in many cities at home and abroad to attract members, and according to the development and offline status of members, set 28-level agency in charge, in just 18 days, the gang has developed a total of more than 13,000 registered members. At present, it has been found that the case involves 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country, and the funds involved are as high as 86 million yuan.
The “Tencent 2017 MLM Situational Awareness White Paper” released by the Tencent Security Joint Lab stated that recently, various types of overseas capital, virtual currency, ICO (the initial public issuance of tokens of blockchain projects) Financing) projects emerge in an endless stream, which hides many risks such as illegal issuance, false projects, cross-border money laundering, fraud, pyramid schemes, etc., resulting in a large amount of funds flowing abroad. Once it crashes, runs away or loses contact, investors often have nowhere to complain and make losses difficult recover. Such as Baichuan Coin, Mark Coin, Beta Coin, Dark Coin, etc.
Reporters from “Liaowang” News Weekly interviewed in Guangdong, Shandong, Shanghai and other places and learned that most people know that the concept of blockchain is very popular, but they are “unclear”, and they have no idea about the specific functions of the blockchain. There are different opinions: some people think that it is used for “investment and wealth management” and “trading currency”, while others think it is “a major invention of the same magnitude as the steam engine”, and some entrepreneurs are even more eager to seize this “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get rich”.
Many industry insiders said that it is precisely because there are many misunderstandings in people’s understanding of the blockchain that criminals have opportunities to mislead investors in troubled waters.
First, blockchain is not equal to virtual currency. By the end of last year, the number of domestic ICO participants and the total number of transactions had doubled, a large number of digital currency exchanges fled overseas, and the proxy investment model involved more ordinary people in high-risk investments.
Many industry self-media, well-known celebrities have formed interest alliances with issuers, digital exchanges, etc., to endorse and create public opinion for the “Air Coin” project platform. In December last year, nine departments including the People’s Bank of China characterized ICOs as “suspected of illegal fundraising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal and criminal activities”.
In the interview, many people told our reporter that the existence of tokens has built a set of rights and interests mechanism for the development of blockchain technology, and this mechanism is indispensable for stimulating the prosperity of blockchain applications. of. “The market practice in the past five years has proved that the application of blockchain without an equity mechanism is like a computer without Internet access and a market economy without currency. The application scenarios and development speed are greatly reduced,” said an investor in Shanghai. .
Actually, the token represented by Bitcoin is only one of the earliest products to verify blockchain technology, and the two cannot be equated. The development of the chain has obvious negative effects.
Xiao Wei, chief engineer of the network blockchain, told this reporter that the myth of ICO’s riches shakes the research and development of blockchain technical talents, and the myth of coin speculation that returns hundreds of times returns is testing the block chain. The patience of chain technology R&D talents. “Many of the ‘comrades’ in the circle who used to do blockchain technology research and development together have been transferred to issue coins, and now there are very few who can insist on technology research and development and application.”
Beijing Internet Finance Industry Xu Zewei, secretary of the party committee of the association, said that in the context of China’s ban on ICOs, many domestic start-ups that promote blockchain applications are “selling dog meat” and packaging originally worthless tokens through conceptual packaging to raise money. “ICO has polluted the good atmosphere of innovation and entrepreneurship, and created a speculative product. Many young people are not thinking about starting a business, but are thinking about issuing coins, which makes everyone have the illusion of getting rich overnight.”
At present, more and more people in the industry are starting to think about whether the development of blockchain must rely on the issuance of tokens to achieve incentives. Guo Dagang, secretary-general of the Beijing Internet Finance Industry Association, told this reporter that the so-called incentive mechanism is only a theoretical basis for the project party to issue tokens for itself. Huo Xuewen, director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Financial Work, also believes that if the blockchain does not get rid of the dilemma of issuing coins, it will never find a legal mechanism for landing.
Secondly, the blockchain is not a panacea, and its security is at risk. Blockchain is generally considered to have three functions:
First, the data stored on the blockchain cannot be tampered with or forged, and the data has high credibility and credibility; second, The whole process of the transaction can be traced to the source, which can realize the accurate tracking of responsibility; third, the smart contract embedded in the blockchain can be automatically executed based on the contract, thereby improving work efficiency and reducing the risk of default. It is generally believed in the industry that blockchainIt has broad application prospects in the fields of finance, logistics and trade.
In fact, blockchain is not a panacea, and its functions also have many limitations. It is generally believed that according to the characteristics of its cryptography, in order to tamper or forge on the blockchain, it is theoretically necessary to control more than 51% of the nodes. When there are enough nodes in the blockchain, this trust creation mechanism with widespread participation by the public is difficult to tamper with.
However, in reality, digital currency exchanges are frequently attacked or even stolen. On June 20, 2018, the South Korean Bithumb exchange announced on its official website that the exchange was attacked by hackers, and 35 billion won, or about $32 million, of cryptocurrency was stolen.
Xinhua Ji, known as the first generation of “hackers” in China, said that the blockchain will constantly face attacks, and the process of uploading data to the chain is prone to information leakage. Some people in the industry are also worried that once the super computing power of quantum computing is realized, it will also have a direct impact on the blockchain.
Zhao Yao, a special researcher at the Institute of Finance, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told our reporter that the academic community had confirmed as early as 2013 that the blockchain is not perfect, and there are many “cheating” strategies. Attacks that control more than 51% of nodes do not exist only in theory, as long as there is enough economic incentive.
Zeng Guang, secretary general of Shenzhen Internet Finance Association, said that blockchain technology itself is not irreplaceable or subversive. “Some criminals exaggerate the role of the blockchain to show that the blockchain has huge investment value, which is worth the vigilance of the majority of investors.”
Thirdly, the popularity of the blockchain is not Not exactly true. The data shows that from the end of 2017 to the beginning of 2018, more than 300 self-media mainly focused on ICO projects appeared, which has become a noteworthy abnormal phenomenon.
“Most of these self-media have the financial support of the person in charge of the exchange and the investors of the currency circle, and the objective independence of their reports is difficult to guarantee. Most of them advocate ICO and currency speculation, and excessively exaggerate the digital currency. Prospects have created the convenience of public opinion dissemination for the illegal fund-raising of problem projects.” Xu Zewei said that some blockchain self-media investors are themselves ICO project investors, and their profit model is to charge advertising fees and project promotion fees to become token issuance. Helpers of public opinion, and some media have developed into agency investment agencies, making profits from them.
(3) Making money under the guise of blockchain Extended reading:
August 24, 2018, website of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission A risk warning was issued to remind the general public to prevent illegal fundraising in the name of “virtual currency” and “blockchain”.
The original text is as follows:
Risk warning on preventing illegal fundraising in the name of “virtual currency” and “blockchain”
China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, Central Cyberspace Administration , the Ministry of Public Security, the People’s Bank of China, and the State Administration for Market Regulation:
Recently, some criminals under the banner of “financial innovation” and “blockchain” have issued so-called “virtual currency” and “virtual assets”. Digital assets” and other methods to absorb funds and infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of the public. Such activities are not really based on blockchain technology, but the fact that the concept of blockchain is hyped for illegal fundraising, pyramid schemes, and fraud. It mainly has the following characteristics:
1. Networking and cross-border are obvious. Relying on the Internet and chatting tools to conduct transactions, and using online payment tools to receive and pay funds, the risks have a wide range and spread quickly. Some criminals set up websites by renting overseas servers, essentially carrying out activities for domestic residents, and remotely controlling the implementation of illegal activities.
Some individuals claim in the chat tool group that they have obtained investment quotas for high-quality overseas blockchain projects and can invest on their behalf, which is most likely a fraudulent activity. Most of the funds for these illegal activities flow abroad, and it is very difficult to monitor and track them.
Second, it is deceptive, tempting, and concealed. Use hot concepts to hype, fabricate a wide range of “Tall Dashang” theories, and some also use celebrity V “platform” propaganda, using airdrop “candy” as a temptation, claiming that “the value of the currency only rises and does not fall”, “the investment cycle is short, High return, low risk”, which is highly delusional.
In practice, criminals illegally make huge profits by manipulating the so-called virtual currency price trend behind the scenes, setting profit and withdrawal thresholds and other means. In addition, some lawbreakers also issue tokens in fancy names such as ICO, IFO, and IEO, or use the IMO method to hype virtual currency under the banner of the sharing economy, which is highly concealed and confusing.
Third, there are a variety of illegal risks. Through publicity, criminals use “static income” (to make profits from the appreciation of currency speculation) and “dynamic income” (to develop offline profits) as bait to attract the public to invest funds, and lure investors to develop personnel to join, and constantly expand the capital pool , with the characteristics of illegal fundraising, pyramid selling, fraud and other illegal activities.
This kind of activity uses “financial innovation” as a gimmick, but in essence is “borrowing the new to repay the old”A Ponzi scheme makes it difficult to maintain long-term capital operations. The general public is requested to view the blockchain rationally, do not blindly believe in hype promises, establish a correct currency concept and investment philosophy, and effectively improve risk awareness; if you find clues about illegal and criminal activities, you can actively report them to the relevant departments.
ⅣWhy are digital wallets under the guise of blockchain all deceptive?
With the country’s announcement to speed up the development of blockchain technology, There has been a shift in the various digital wallets and digital currency scammers using blockchain technology in the market, which is known as a state-backed direction. Actually, it was due to some wrong ingredients.
Such wallets, known in the market as digital wallets, allow wallet operators to buy ico coins from abroad, allowing operators to guess coins and increase the value of the currency. In short, it’s the same as a “postcard”. The only difference is that the object name is replaced by “blockchain cryptocoin”. As long as everyone keeps their money in my wallet, everything works fine. You can say you can deposit 100 today and 1000 tomorrow.
Ⅳ In Nanning, Guangxi, someone stopped and paid 50,000 people to say what financial blockchain is and what is its nature
MLM, domestic blockchain projects have formal , but more of them are MLM gangs defrauding money under the guise of blockchain. Our blockchain industry is stinked by these people.
Ⅵ Why do many people say blockchain It’s a lie.
Blockchain is not a lie. In fact, the blockchain scam is to take advantage of people’s lack of understanding of the technology, and then the scammers rely on all kinds of fancy means to set up scams. Many people only look at the surface when making investments, and are eventually lured into the trap by high profits.
In today’s society, more and more people are willing to take this risk to make investments, in order to obtain rich returns, but not everyone can profit from it, after all, there are benefits There are many people squatting and guarding, and they will set a trap for people to take the bait.
(6) Extended reading under the guise of blockchain:
Notes
Blockchain is a This technology, simply put: this technology is based on new ways of data management such as cryptography. Blockchain technology has broad application prospects because of its advantages of decentralization, non-tampering, traceability throughout the process, and traceability. Coin issuance is a behavior derived from blockchain technology. At present, most of the blockchain applications based on issuing coins and speculating coins are suspected of illegal fundraising.
Blockchain technology is still in the early stages of development, and it is difficult to apply it. If only a white paper claims to have an application, it is a deception in itself.
VII Is the blockchain deceptive?
“Blockchain” is an important concept in the new era, which is essentially a centralized database , but also the underlying technology such as digital currency. According to our popular explanation, “blockchain” can be regarded as a ledger, each bill is each block, but this ledger is centralized, and it can be said that no enterprise or team has jurisdiction over it. “Blockchain” technology is a unique information technology that is centralized and information cannot be changed. Now this technology has been applied to a series of applications such as electronic invoices and payment codes.
In today’s life, many people use this guise to commit fraud, direct sales, capital, technology and other names attract people to make money and then run away, many people lose their funds and have nowhere to defend their rights. In the end, it can only be said that “blockchain” is a lie. There is no right or wrong in technology, it is people who are at fault.
With the progress of the times and the progress of society, the application of any technology will be subject to positive and negative doubts. This kind of application will continue to improve, I believe that in the near future, these doubts will slowly dissipate.
The following is a summary of some blockchain scams around you!
Trap 1: The blockchain is to make money by issuing coins
Trap 2: Conduct virtual currency transactions and promise low investment and high returns
Trap 3: Decentralization can solve all problems
Trap 4: The extension products of the blockchain can make money while lying down with a mining machine
Trap 5: Transactions conducted by WeChat and Alipay to buy and sell virtual currencies
In short, the tricks of liars are also advancing with the times. Through our “special eyes” to improve and enhance our resilience, to discover and alert ourselves, to prevent being deceived, investors must be vigilant about various deceptive methods with low investment and high returns.

It can’t be said that all are deceitful, but some are indeed deceiving
