I was told by someone that I know the last month and never met in person about an investment opportunity. Before you tell me that I am an idiot, how I was involved with this person and the reason that I trusted her is another discussion.

And that reason leads you to fall on the trap. Is this person affiliated with this Valid Order Chain thing?

The coin is named VOT (Valid Order Chain) and is listed in an exchange that is called www.kolomine.com. I searched online if this exchange is a scam and I could not find any advere media. I then sent my whole bankroll 0.5 BTC and I bought VOT. Invite Code and account authentication were also needed which made the possible scam more real.

Account authentication is usual in any exchange.

The moment you searched for some info online about that exchange, you should at least think that they are not trusted and not worth putting a risk. Aside from a few reviews around, they are using the domain GMAIL, a free email domain for an exchange? And ICO is running, and then it was being traded? How with a person with BTC0.5 just easily trusted that kind of exchange?

I hope that will not lead you to think crypto is sh*t. Honestly, people themselves are the reason why they led to this scam thing. Being involved in this crypto stuffs for years, at least you should understand that there's no overnight profit here. You should have used that BTC0.5 wisely and not to rely on other's promise.

What to do now? Rest a bit, bear your losses, move on slowly, or continue talking to your "girl" on what's the best thing to do.
