Bitconnect Season 2, episode 1: BitconnectX, how to scam Bitconnect users a second time
Bitconnect recently announced the end of its lending platform, a few minutes after the BCC token went from about $300 USD to almost nothing ($15 USD) loosing more than 90% of its value.
Two days after, Bitconnect realizing the big loss of many investors who trusted them, announced they would ignore the BCC market value and credit $150 USD worth of BCCX, in their new ICO (launched for a new exchange platform). But this great deal would last only for 10 days. What a great generosity from Bitconnect*!
Many holders of worthless BCC tokens then decided to transfer their tokens to the BCCX platform, as it is the only option to recover half of their loss, provided the BCCX token value will be traded at $50 USD.
Total sold today : 261,333. The sell limit will reset at 12 AM (UTC). Please try again tomorrow.
The ICO is limited to 261,333 token per 24 hours. And every token is sold in less that 1 second. Many users have reported trying for 4 days, at exactly 12:00:00 AM (UTC) without success. Server always reports a status code 502 "Bad Gateway" message or Cloudflare error pages.
BitconnectX investors must be warned:
- BitconnectX just proves us they cannot hold the traffic of an Exchange like Bitfinex.
- Their token, announced at $50 USD is over rated, in reality their token will be more than 50 times lower than this price.
- We don't know who is behind Bitconnect or BitconnectX, they don't take responsibility for their own business. Here is a bitconnectx.co domain "whois":

The investors to Bitconnect already lose alot, what can they do? It look like a exit to them. If it works good if not they already lose.
I've been telling people that this was a ponzi for months. I almost feel bad for people dumb/desparate enough to invest in bitconnectx after having lost money in bitconnect.
People learn only when they lose money. To bad a new sucker is being born every second.
Sometimes losing money isn't even enough for someone to learn, sadly.
Hmm, I am a man of balance and I believe in understanding both sides of the arguement, You are missing the arguement for investing in BitconnectX, which is in fact...
"BITCONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCTXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Had to say it.
