**Hey, 
I have went through Bitconnect and examined it very closely and I have come to the Conclusion that this might be one of the best scams ever created, Here's why:**

**<center>The Compound Interest Method:</center>**

Explaination of what Compound Interest is (In Bitconnect)
So I'm sure that you have heard about this method were you can earn like 200k a year with a 100 dollar investment as a PASSIVE Income. It goes like this, you get around 0.93%** a day of your total invested amount (I will upload their sheet with diffrent intrest rates depending on starting investment below) you then take your earnings and then reinvest it, so first day on an investment of 100 USD you will get around 0.93$ that means after 11 days you have "earned" 10 dollars,  then you reinvest those 10 dollars. You now have a total investment of 110 USD and now you will get 0.93% of that which means that you earn 10 dollars in 10 days now. This keeps on until you stop reinvesting, but the idea is that when you reinvest you will get more and more back so after 730 days (2 years) you will have a total investment of 81180 USD and earn 730 Dollars a day, Which is 275 565 USD every year as a passive income (sounds good right?)
* * * * * * 
This doesn't sound too good to be true, right? although the crazy part comes when you start your investment with 1010 USD ( you will then get +0.1% **GUARANTEED** back per day). This means that after 4 years of constantly reinvesting you will have 3.5 billion USD total invested and earn 36 million USD a day. So the numbers just became too good to be true, this means that if there are 100 persons doing the same as me (now there are probably many more people doing this and some with even more than 1010$ but i will just use 100 persons with 1010$ as an example) and that would mean after 4 years of this Bitconnect would be having to payout 350 Billion USD in cryptocurrency, now remember the current crypto market cap is at 165 billion USD. That means that we own more money together than the whole world in crypto, just think about that... where would our money go then? what would happen? I can't answer for this since I don't know, but please if you know tell us in the comments! 

** **the percentage in this example is the calculated average for the past 6 months, but it varies daily from ≈0-2%**

**<center>The Affiliate System:</center>**

Their affiliate system has 7 levels, they are giving away 12% in total which is INSANELY good (too good to be true) if we for an example had referred a guy that does the example shown above (the 3.5 billion USD after 4 years). Bitconnect would have to pay out in total 420 million USD in affiliate bonuses (if the referral system goes in a full cycle (shown below) 

level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 7%
level 2 – 3%
levels 3 and 4 – 1%
level 5 – 0.5%
level 6 – 0.3%
level 7 – 0.2%

Does this seem reasonable? Nope, it's way too good to be true. This is a pyramid scheme! beware!

Remember this goes onto the 7th level! 



***<center>Bitconnect Tokens? Why not only Bitcoin?</center>**
These people are so smart that they even created their own "fraud" currency, ever wondered why we can't just lend them bitcoin directly? Since we are exchanging our BTC for BCC tokens we are basically giving something of value in exchange for something we bwlieve is of value. This means that when we know (officially) that Bitconnect is a scam the BCC token will hit rock bottom and the Bitconnect team will run away with our Bitcoin, since bitcoin is the most stable currency right now they will have no problem with laundering that money into fiat currency.


**<center>Their HQ In Vietnam</center>**
Have you ever wondered why they are based in Hanoi Vietnam? Well it's not only because of cheap labor but also because that Vietnam doesn't recognize BTC (or any other altcoin) as a currency, therefore they cannot get caught for fraud by Vietnamese authorities  since BTC is nothing more than pixels to them!!


**<center>Buyer Beware</center>**
Have you ever heard of the term "Buyer Beware" ? Well that term fits perfectly into this scenario. 
If the company doesn't say who's behind it, beware. If they say's that they are pooling your money to trades but doesn't show any trades, beware. This is exactly like Bitconnect! 
Same goes for companies who are doing cloud mining operations! if they never show you any mining equipment, beware!! there are so many scams out there! So before you invest in stuff like this think about the "Buyer beware"rule.


**<center>Too Good To Be True</center>**
My last point I have already talked about a bit, but their program is way too good to be true! If you could find any bank (real world bank) most of them offer at most up to 3% a YEAR (Swedish banks) and it isn't even guaranteed! whilst on Bitconnect they promise up to 0.25% a DAY depending on your initial deposit and then you add that to the referral system which pays out in total 12%. You might start to re evaluate about how good of an investment opportunity this really is! 

* * * * * * * * *
They did although make the scam very good so I will have to give them that, since they have basically thought about everything.
BUT PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR SCAMS LIKE THIS!!

I hope that you got a new "view" on Bitconnect after reading this! If you already have invested in them, pull out as quick as possible since they can be gone any minute.
If there is anything I missed in this post please let me know!
