Hello everyone! Today I want to talk to you from my personal experience about something that boils my blood: those damn pyramid schemes that are everywhere in the crypto world.
Do you know what happened to me? A "friend" invited me to a platform that supposedly multiplied cryptos. It promised ABSURD returns, 15% weekly. I was so excited! But of course, reality is different.
These scams are simple: they deceive you with promises of easy money but do you know what they really do? NOTHING. They don't invest in anything. They just use your money to pay those who entered before while the creators quietly get rich.
People do not understand that these systems HAVE to collapse mathematically. It is impossible for it to be sustainable. When there are no more fools to enter or when they have already stolen enough, the creators disappear with your money. And you are left crying.
What angers me the most is how they manipulate people. They say: "recruit your friends and family" - basically turning you into an accomplice of the fraud. And what if there are no more people to recruit? You're screwed. The last link always loses.
I was lucky and only lost a small amount, but there are people who have lost all their savings. Their LIFE SAVINGS!
If you don't want to end up like them:
Research any platform ( well, and no, a smiling influencer on Instagram is NOT a reliable source ).
Be wary of ridiculously high returns
If they ask you to recruit people, RUN AWAY
Diversify your investments
These types of scammers should be in jail. Instead, they are on yachts bought with the money of innocent people.

Note: Take advantage of legitimate and regulated platforms. Not all are bad, but caution is necessary.
