In 2015, Mavrodi, the founder of 3M, the "grandmaster" of financial MLM, was released from prison and returned to the world. This time, he targeted China, a land full of miracles and gold. At the same time, Bitcoin was quietly rampant in China.
In the second half of 2015, various publicity related to 3M mushroomed across the city. Even my city has many friends who have joined it. To be honest, do you think they don’t know this is a Ponzi scheme?
In fact, most of the people who have joined it know about it, but if you think about it, as long as you come into contact with it, there are very few people who can resist the temptation of huge profits of 1% per day and 30% per month. , basically everyone joined in,
Secondly, the investment amount ranges from a minimum of 60 yuan to a maximum of 60,000 yuan. Basically, the people who come into contact will invest more or less part of it, radically or even completely, under the temptation of huge profits. It’s simple and crude, no effort required, no need to work hard to move bricks, just send money to the platform, and you will receive a generous return of up to 130% after one month. How many people can withstand this temptation.
Since it comes to the issue of transferring money, everyone knows that the government is still relatively strict in this regard, so if you transfer money back and forth, the financial risk is huge, and the card can be frozen by the bank at any time. For this reason, the 3M team thought of the best way. financial solutions! That’s Bitcoin! ! !
The decentralized nature of Bitcoin has been perfectly utilized by the 3M team. Although everyone basically knows that 3M is an obvious Ponzi scheme, to be honest, it is precisely because of 3M that countless people People have learned about Bitcoin and realized its power.
If you think about a wallet that can conduct transactions 24 hours a day, and has anonymous transfers and high privacy, it had a huge effect at the time. At least hundreds of thousands of people learned about Bitcoin and Bitcoin because of 3M. Used Bitcoin!
To put it more bluntly, a large part of half of the current currency circle are actually players at that time.
Then, after 3M had been running stably for several months, around October 2015, the 3M team grandly launched a shocking upgrade! That is the final madness, Super 3M! ! !
The statement said that this month's income can reach 100% and can be withdrawn at any time. The income is more than three times the previously stated income. However, it is also relatively necessary to complete various "interactive tasks". The interactive tasks at that time were Show your face, tweet, and post videos on major social platforms to promote 3M and spread it virally, thereby tricking more people into joining!
People in 2015 were still relatively simple. How could they have seen this kind of battle?
So I rushed in like crazy, basically imagining that as long as I played for a month, I could get my principal back, and then use the rest to make a profit. It continues to attract a large number of players to join it!
This trend at the time caused the price of Bitcoin to soar from less than $200 in September 2015 to over $500 in early November.
Even when the bubble burst, on December 26, 2015, MMM issued an announcement stating that all measures to save and stabilize had failed and the crisis could not be overcome, so it announced a restart and a fresh start.
At that time, some players pointed out that this meant that investors who had not withdrawn cash before could no longer withdraw it, and all their invested money was wasted.
Ponzi fund scams also take advantage of human greed, catching most people wanting to make huge profits, get rich overnight, etc. Having said that, after the carnival, there is always a lot of chicken feathers, and 3M eventually bankrupted countless families at that time. .
ps: You can embrace Bitcoin, but you must stay away from Ponzi schemes!
ps: Have you withstood the temptation of MMM’s high yields and high returns? Or like thousands of victims, unfortunately jumped into the pit of fire? Please leave a comment below and tell your story.
