CryptoScamAudit: Automated Scam and Bot Verification Extension for Crypto Subreddits

I don't understand one thing. If you have 180$ capital and you made over 90$ in ONE DAY, why would you need people's money or share your tool? If i have a money-making machine, why would i rent my machine out

I had Claude do a detailed analysis. **This has all the hallmarks of a scam — I'd stay away.** What stood out: **The "reset."** They openly say they grew $33 to $200+, then wiped that history to start "clean" at $100. Real operators don't erase a winning track record — that's the biggest tell. Either it blew up before, or this is a rebrand of a prior identity. **The dashboard math doesn't hold up.** The RVNUSDT short position shows a stop-loss *below* entry price. For a short, the stop-loss has to sit above entry — that's the only side that protects against loss. By their own numbers, that stop should've already fired. That's what a mocked-up front end looks like, not real exchange telemetry. **85.4% win rate, +371.6% ROI, -11.2% max drawdown.** An edge like that wouldn't need $50 minimum deposits from Telegram strangers. **It's fully custodial, marketed as "non-custodial."** Deposit from any wallet on any chain and the money lands somewhere *they* control, tracked on their own internal ledger. The actual non-custodial path only exists at the $2,500+ tier via a Binance API key. **Exit fees taper to 0% after day 15** — a classic lock-in mechanic that discourages anyone from testing a withdrawal early, right when a rug pull would show itself. **The legal language is doing more work than the trading strategy.** Zero-liability clauses, a Supreme Court case cited to argue they're not an investment adviser, claims of operating outside US jurisdiction — that's someone pre-building a defense, not running a desk. This exact template — quant bot, Telegram signals, pooled vault, tiered deposits — is the same shape the SEC has shut down repeatedly: a bitcoin-denominated scheme called Trade Coin Club pulled in roughly $295 million from over 100,000 investors before regulators caught it, and just last year two brothers were charged with running a $61.5 million Ponzi scheme built around a crypto arbitrage bot that turned out never to have existed. There's never actually a bot.
