5. I don't know if there are any cases of pyramid selling using bitcoin mining, but there are still cases of fraud using bitcoin mining machine. Last year, with the roller coaster growth of bitcoin price and extensive media coverage, bitcoin has graally entered the public's field of vision. Bitcoin has created a number of myths of overnight wealth. Facing the huge expulsion of interests, bitcoin mining instry has become increasingly popular. However, bitcoin mining machine has a situation of more wolves than meat. Take Avalon mining machine on the market as an example, it was once fried from 8000 thousand yuan to more than 300000 yuan. Since the invention of all hardware solutions for Avalon mining machines except chips, a large number of OEM manufacturers have emerged as the times require, and there are also some fraud activities using pre-sale of mining machines. In April this year, after careful investigation, the Public Security Bureau of Wangcang County in Guangyuan successfully arrested the use of the Internet to sell "bitcoin mining machines" and "bitcoin mining machines" Long Xiaoguang, a suspect who has defrauded 10 yuan in 2 months (alias, male, 27 years old, Donghe Town, Wangcang county), has cracked the first serial use of bitcoin mining machine to conct Internet fraud in Sichuan.
if you want to mine, you still need to buy a professional ASIC miner, because the computing power has been rising. Even if you buy a real miner, if the overall performance of the miner can't keep up, it's hard to recover the cost. Mining machinery is an instry with rapid upgrading. In China, it is suggested that you buy Avalon third generation miner.

6. Belong to MLM, no profit, only loss. According to news reports: at present, a new online pyramid selling mode - "markcoin" is spreading throughout the city. The organization has set up a number of wechat groups, and each group is known as a team. Please do not be fooled
"mark coin" is an upgraded version of "bitcoin". It is a kind of virtual currency and has high value-added in external publicity. Its main mode is: Online introctions and offline participation are required, and each offline will provide its name, e-mail address and mobile phone number to online users, who will help to register. After successful account registration, transfer the corresponding level of money to the company's designated account. Then everyone will give an account and password to log on to the website, and the backstage can see everyone's investment amount and dividend details. On January 18 this year, the company held a meeting in Macao, and most of the participants were Chinese
"markcoin" is similar to some other online pyramid schemes. It is said that the investment is small and the income is high. Although there is a static bonus, if there is any real income, it needs to obtain dynamic awards such as sales award, collision award and algebra award, and to obtain these dynamic awards, it must develop a large number of offline procts
according to the police, at present, there are not only "mark coin" and "bitcoin", but also "black tea", "Baichuan coin", "dark coin", "3M", "carat coin", "petroleum coin", "Huaqiang coin", "U coin", "Morgan coin", "Fuda compound wealth management", "WorldCom", "21st Century Fox" and "Wanxi wealth management". The target of lawbreakers' development is Internet users who are keen on surfing the Internet. The target of lawbreakers' development is graally infiltrating from young people to middle-aged people and unemployed people, luring them to invest in small, big returns and wait for high returns. In fact, the so-called static dividend is just a cover. Many people continue to develop offline in order to earn benefits, which is no different from the traditional pyramid scheme. Moreover, the running cycle of this kind of MLM is short, generally less than a year. When it comes to the rebate peak, the website will be closed directly, causing many people to lose their money.
