Well that was the longest running Ponzi scheme that didn't let up until the very end.

they have a very strong marketing campaign and many such schemes have a support in Asia, I saw some ponzi sites that made promises of high returns to be successful websites in Asia, especially in countries like India and Philippines... these guys ( Bitconnect ) do many speeches and deceive people, even the days before I saw a guy who said in the social network that would invest $25,000 in Bitconnect and saw a girl who according to her invested $300,000 in Bitconnect.

I do not have a link from those people who invested these values because if I had this link, I would post it here, it was something that shocked me when I read

I do remember that couple especially that girl you mentioned.
That stuck in my mind when you mentioned it because that was odd they would invest this much all the sudden.
They were probably paid by bitconnect to promote they did this so to bring in my trust of investors who were on the fence to put in that much money into a company like this. Without any security.
But these money hunger people will just see someone doing and they say to themselves
"Why not me if they are doing it, then it must be alright to get involved into!"

Wrong way to approach these ponzi schemes because they are just used for a money laundering scam.
But on a global level.
