Early digital currencies were ignored
Basic routine: the "trading market" of MLM digital currency is basically controlled by specific institutions.

Once the time is ripe, it will be sold intensively, and the price will plummet, and the investors will lose all their money

2. The participants can get a head pulling reward, and the prize is the digital currency itself
