It looks like we talk about this same but in other words
In short, certainly there will be scammed a lot of people outside Bitcointalk, but in my opinion, about HashOcean is much more warnings then was about HashProfit, Cloudminr or Scrypt.cc . Also less people supports this "type of investments", so it is a good sign for the future.
After the massive scam of tons of Ponzi sites out there, a lot of people have become aware of what ponzi is. There's more actually, there's MMM, SWA, MPA and emgoldex. Not sure if you guys have heard about these ponzi sites but they are promoted before in our group. You can pay in bitcoins but you can pay in cash as well. Now people in our group are promoting HashOcean, trying to get tons of referrals before the halving comes. People in this forum are safe from these scams unless the person was never warned/informed about ponzi sites.
To the newbies out there who's reading this, don't invest in HashOcean. We have no idea when they will run away but they surely will.
Its not legit but it can call paying because no site is legit for now all of site running is ponzi-scheme although hashocean is paying for now but i think its not recommended to invest more because it is long running site and it can turn scam one of these days if no one will invest again in their site, and also their are some articles that the address given by hashocean is at the middle at the street so by that they are unknown and thats give more strong evidence that their site is running in ponzi i dont say its scam because it is paying for now but i really say think twice if you want to add invesment there.
