It's possible that it is not a scam, but a really well designed project encouraging people to stake and hold. Yes, it has its shady aspects, but seems like it could be a legitimate project.
Stake and receive defi is the strategy most shitcoin use these days and i hope you dont fall for it because the whole coin/token which will be giving to you wont worth it in the end. It better you invest in bitcoin when the market is yet to be bullish.
Just be more careful guys.
