so, my deduction is that he is not actually funding anything, but giving the impression that he has given money to the project, to enable him to take a reap of the rewards of the scam?
provably unfair on investors.
Just to be clear on this, your intelligent remark to follow-up on this is that this man would risk spending years in federal prison to support a scam that he has no stake in? And you'd like to be taken seriously, of course, right?
I'm with you. His involvement doesn't preclude a scam, but it does mean that there was probably an actual business plan, and he performed some amount of due diligence. There is no way any professional investor wants to be near a ponzi scheme. I highly doubt this guy thinks this is a scam.
How would he know what to think? According to Josh, these "trained businessmen" just want the marketing pitch. They don't care or even know how it gets done.
That is why the whitepaper is a piece of marketing fluff with no technical details (according to Josh again).
If anything, this should make one more nervous. Do you think the only person with 30 years of financial experience in the room is going to lose money here? Do you really believe that line "that if one of us wins we all win!"?
Josh said just a few days ago that payouts could be twice as high, they have apparently been like that for awhile, but Josh has just not gotten around to setting what he wants the new Zenpool payment to be. Sounds like Josh winning on that one, not his customers.
