Your report is worrying on many levels. Where did this word spread? I would like for bitconnect to be totally honest about the amount of money they lost to this glitch. Remember they do not even require people to sign up with real identity details (they even say this on their website). You or anyone else could have made separate accounts just for taking advantage of this glitch. If it was concentrated only during this day then it's possible they can recover but it is worrying if they lost more than their profits. Regarding people who don't seem to understand the simple truth that they are profiting from the 'lending' (nothing to do with actual lending, it is just their marketing for guaranteeing the deposit for a lower return than just holding the coin) as the coin has always exceeded the growth rate of the people who secure their deposits by lending at a lower rate. Customers are guaranteed the capital in exchange for a share of the profits - please take the marketing for what it is and not gospel truth as long as the results are the same, but all that matters is it is true that their capital is guaranteed with their system and they are profiting and not taking money from other investors. Of course this could have all been a fluke that they created the only sustainable system and they just ran with the money, anyway, but I think other people need to copy its model. Obviously the coin holders will have to lose at times, but overall it was a great system. This loss of profits from this glitch is very worrying to me but if they can report their profits and also their loss, then people would trust them much more.
Oh just read your report again, and you mention you think you were one of the first to find the glitch, but when was this? Someone on the bitconnect glitch announcement page mentioned they found it 6 or 7 weeks ago and tried reporting it to support a couple of times at least. The support seemed to tell them that everything was alright and didn't seem concerned. This rings alarm bells, because what if the support had already heard many reports of this but were just employees and didn't tell the people involved and took advantage of it massively? The bottom line is that actual money is at risk here and they need to have the reserves to either sustain the price for the coin holders as this also helps them to be able to cover their liabilities, or they will need to sell off their BCC while the price is still high to buy back later. They then can carry on as normal as they have everything covered but investors may end up stuck with much lower rates to compensate until growth resumes to the usual level.
About ambis, an obvious Ponzi, where are the details about when it went down and what they said etc to corroborate what people are saying here?
BY the way, Gleb, I wasn't convinced at all by what you wrote but I fleetingly had some suspicions about Four Corners Alliance Group having at least some links but I'm not sure any more... they are stongly into MLM businesses and their website looked a bit similar at first glance but have doubts now. The ukcoins whatever site was probably just a copy (shadowcoin or whatever it was they promoted) and not related. Anyway, I think trying to find these people is not really worth the time, especially as they have not been a Ponzi so far and have generated massive profits above what they are liable to investors for. They don't want their details known, but if they actually messed up their system then maybe they do need to be made accountable.
