I personally invested 0 USD in this platform after 3 months of my research.
that is true about everyone with a brain and the ability to use it. which means the effects of it is minimal. in other words it is like saying one of those "double your bitcoin in 10 hours" websites was closed! they are as clear a scam as this one.
But newcomers in crypto space doesn't have so much time like me and decide by their own eventually, thousands of people lost 10s of thousands of dollars today, with Bitconnect.
where did you get this stats?
even if true, they deserved it. that is what you get when you put your money in a scam website owned by scammers.
in any case i still say the effects of it is minimal because majority of people don't trust these types of websites and those who invested mostly knew what they were getting into.
