still staking Bitconnect for shits and giggles.. started with 77 tokens in January 2018, now I have 145 tokens just from staking..

Bitconnect apparently no longer is the biggest scam crypto... Looks like Terra Luna beat it by miles.. in the tune of 60 Billion lost.

Terra not only was the biggest crypto loss I think it was one of the largest finance scams in history ever. I think it either matched or topped what Bernie Madoff stole. Madoff however took years for the scam to play out. Luna was fairly quick.

Bit connect was huge back in the day. Most don’t remember but it was Vitalik that tipped off the iceberg. Basically went on Twitter saying it’s a Ponzi and a few weeks later the scam was revealed and it basically was the crypto top of 2017.

Getting rewards or not it's a dead project, can you sell? The answer is no so there is no point getting paid from stacking, there are a few scam projects since 2018 that blockchain is still up and running till date.

The product of any project that still cannot be sold is not worthy of being considered a living project because actually it is still in the process of being revived so it is still very feasible to say that it is dead even though the team is still trying to revive the project in any way. So obviously in this case it would be pointless if someone just hunted down projects that are still dead for now.

I'm amazed that there are still people who can continue staking it. The risk is probably zero, but the thought of it being rewarded somehow isn't there with what happened. I like the idea that it could be an NFT or something. If you have BCC, it could be considered the famous scam token until recently. Lol.

Where then do you sell the tokens after staking? Are there exchanges it is listed on or you sell peer-to-peer to those that still find it useful aside the monetary rewards they gain from it? What exactly do people find useful about the coin? Never really had time to research how the coin works or worked in the past.

There ain't no 'monetary' rewards, it's worthless coin.

This Bitconnect you’re talking about is one of the biggest Ponzi in cryptocurrency, like everybody knows about how they made away with that huge amount of money, so why do you think anyone will still be interested in holding their token? Even if you try to sell the ones that you’re getting now, I don’t believe anyone would be ready to buy it from you when they know for sure what it’s all about. Unless you’re selling it to someone that doesn’t know what they are buying from you.

Moreover most exchange I know are not trading that token as well. So, I would say it’s basically worthless. Even if someone is looking for what to rebrand, why should it be a scam token that’s already tainted?

Bitconnect is dead, and its technology still works because it is a virtual system. When a coin has no value, how good a technology is, it is still meaningless. Don't expect too much of Bitconnect, they are the first big scammer of the crypto market and make a lot of investors go bankrupt.
P / s: Our experience is not to be greedy to speculate on high-profit projects, especially the current Farm trend.

Oh you can still earning bitconnect tokens that's good but too bad that there is no exchanges that listed bitconnect. Don't waste your time staking bitconnect, better stake to other tokens.

That is NOT good. Bitconnect should die just like OneCoin,,, and every other scam out there. By the way I had no idea BCC actually had a blockchain I was pretty sure when I checked in 2018? Maybe 2017? There was no blockchain at least not a public one I could see. Should track down who is maintaining the node.

Bitconnect should have been dead for a long time because this project was no longer operational in the year you mentioned but if at this time someone is still trying to activate the scam project again then they are trying to trick some new investors who don't know about Bitconnect.

50 BCC tokens in staking it on a server that I use as a multimedia SAN..

Anyone here been staking BCC?? Obviously I can't be the only one staking it because I'm getting rewards every
several days.. Any real use for it? Anyone trading them? It's a Proof of Stake blockchain.. Yeah it was used by probably
the biggest scammers dealing with crypto currencies, but it's still blockchain technology..

I figure someone would just rebrand it to something else useful and use it for whatever..

Just thought I'd ask since I pulled up the wallet and saw that I have 114 total BCC tokens..

I will frankly say that you are only but wasting your time and your hope will be dashed to pieces. So if am correct you are waiting or wishing there is someone who will rebrand a scam project, who do you think will be naive enough to do so when taking into account it costs money to rebrand and also the token in question was a well known scam. It is better you move on and take your thoughts to other coins which are doing well, because as for this scam token, there is no hope for it.

I don't think this is useful anymore. No one would even patronize them as it was a very popular scam in this space. You cant just do stuffs like this and expect to be widely accepted it doesn't work that way. This space has a long way to go In weeding out fake projects.

On the other hand maybe. Ha If its blockchain stand still then perhaps they can still send it to their wallets to remind them this coin had been on the obvious scam in crypto yet it had victimized hundreds to thousands of people. Would this be a rare coin then and become colectibles?

At first there was no need to invest in ponzi based coins and then if you have there is no need to promote it, we should have learnt our lessons uptill now as we have seen dozens of ponzi coins after bitconnect so we should never invest or encourage such programs where early comers and promoters are the real winners and majority of investors loose.

for me it is doubtful because this coin has a bad reputation or the biggest fraud, I see this coin listed on the BCC and BCCX unnamed exchanges, are these two coins related? I don't know, maybe they tried to wake up, I think this coin is worth forgetting because there are still many better choices.

Bitconnect? Was this not the scam project which shut down years ago you are referring to or is it another one?. You are certainly aware of the scam that happened with this coin and yet you think there is hope for it to come back again. Well, I don't think it's coming back no matter what anyone does not when there are other tons of coins to research on. There have been scam projects in this space and this one won't be an exemption thus the best thing is to forget whatever you see in the project and move on; it is a dead project with no hope of coming back.

Bitconnect already left the markets years ago. There is no possibility of them turning back and so their utility token would just remain a shit coin for the rest of the life. I do not really think that you would gain any profits from those coins which you got for staking for years. Also the amount of coins you have is pretty less. There are number of users who got thousands of BCC coins which are worthless now.

If ever BCC started back than at the initial stage the coin would instantly dump because almost each of the holders would sell their coins. This is not possible though. You have no use of those coins but yet you can hold those coins for few more years to check your luck.

I don't think it's worth re branding because they have a very bad reputation and the authorities might go after the new developers who will try to revive it, I've check it on Coinmarketcap and I don't see it anymore on Coinmarketcap and Coingecko, I think it should be forgotten and do not try to revive it.

There is no way anyone would ever buy this coin. Even there are millions of these coins in the markets which has no value and users have just stored them for no reason. Rewarding someone to stake this coin is pretty easy because the coin has no demand. I almost forgot about bitconnect years ago.

I was one of the user of bitconnect but at the end they just exit the markets by giving everyone BCC coins for the amount they invested which were instantly dumped in the markets. That was the time BCC would never ever be used again but I am shocked to see OP expecting some returns from such coins yet after these many years.

As I recall, BCC never entered the top 10 coinmarketcap because at that time many people joined bitconnect and I just registered an account without buying any BCC. I once heard a story from one of my friends that he lost a lot of money so he sold his house for the necessities of his life, I feel sad for the victims of bitconnect.

As for the potential of trading BCC, you'd probably have to personally work something out with another person that wants the coins because there does not seem to be any exchanges out there at the moment that have active trading pairs with BCC.

Anyways, it is a proven scam already, so I doubt that anyone would like to trade p2p with Bitconnect tokens. There are no exchanges that accept it as well, so you might as well treat it like nothing, worthless piece of shitcoin.

The damage has been done, there is no fixing it, even prior to the scandal, many people here in the community has been calling it a scam, but they are gullible and thinks that it will continue to make them money until it got busted.

It just tells you how strong are cryptocurrencies. Once protocol exist some time and bugs are fixed, it can just work forever. Bitconect was a simple bitcoin clone, so protocol was tested for 7 years. They added thsi saking you talk about. Nothing that hard and nothing you would expect many bugs out of it.

The project was a scam already and therefore no one is and will ever have any use for it. Let's ask, who will buy when knowing fully well it was a scan? Which exchange can trade it? Who will be the person willing to take the risk of rebranding it while putting his funds at risk? There are many questions to ask and all points to the fact that, getting involved with that coin again is a lost cause and will definitely lead to wasted time and money. So it's better you overlook it and focus on the majority of good and trusted coins out there.

It was already Identify that Bitconnect (BCC) as a scam coin, so I guess no one will use it nowadays thats why its useless to hold it, As we all know that the crypto space react swiftly if there is an accusation thats why if any project was already tag as a scam especially when there is a piece of solid evidence against it I'm sure it will become useless in a matter of days.

That's true, about the lost of credibility of that coin. At a point after the scam debacle I got a mail from them about rebranding but I never paid it any attention. I was one of the lucky ones who held that coin at the time because I got my reward before that ultimate collapse. I don't think anyone in their right senses should pay BCCn attention now under any guise.

Man, just forget about Bitconnect. No one really cares about that scam coin and you won't benefit from holding or at least taking care of that anymore. There's no hope for that so I suggest that you stop caring in that. 114 BBC or 999999 BBC, they are basically the same. I think you are the only one who is staking that unironically.

Maybe you are holding that for the sake of history? Like a collection? I don't know about you but I'm pretty sure that will never get any value.
