MartCoin provide no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.

MartCoin Products

MartCoin has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market MartCoin affiliate membership itself.

The MartCoin Compensation Plan

MartCoin affiliates invest in MART points on the promise of a daily ROI (paid in MART points).

  • Package 1 – invest $100 to $1000 and receive a daily ROI for 189 days
  • Package 2 – invest $1010 to $10,000 and receive a daily ROI for 159 days
  • Package 3 – invest $10,010 to $100,000 and receive a daily ROI for 129 days
  • Package 4 – invest $100,010 to $500,000 and receive a daily ROI for 99 days
  • Package 5 – invest $500,010 to $1,000,000 and receive a daily ROI for 79 days
  • Package 6 – invest $1,000,010 to $3,000,000 and receive a daily ROI for 49 days
  • Package 7 – invest $3,000,010 or more and receive a daily ROI for 29 days

The daily ROI rate is paid out via a “spinning program”, which is basically a digital wheel with varying ROI percentages on it:

Referral commissions are available on funds invested by downline affiliates, paid out via a unilevel compensation structure.

A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):

If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.

If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.

MartCoin cap payable unilevel levels at seven, with commissions paid out as a percentage of invested funds across these seven levels:

  • level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 10%
  • level 2 – 3%
  • levels 3 and 4 – 1%
  • level 5 – 0.5%
  • level 6 – 0.3%
  • level 7 – 0.2%

Joining MartCoin

MartCoin affiliate membership is free, however free affiliates can only earn referral commissions.

Full participation in the MartCoin income opportunity requires a minimum $100 investment.

Conclusion

MartCoin is yet another worthless altcoin ICO, pushed out solely to make the anonymous owners money.

Gullible investors exchange real money for worthless MART points, on the usual promise of riches.

Despite claiming to have a ‘clear and specific plan for Martcoin to reach $290 by the end of Q2-2018‘, there is no practical use for MART points outside of the income opportunity.

The points are not publicly tradeable and cannot be used for any real world application. Ergo there’s no genuine supply and demand and MART’s value is tied to MartCoin affiliate recruitment.

The lottery style ROI system is an interesting twist, although all it really does is change your typical fixed lending ROI to a variable.

No doubt the system is rigged not to exceed a set daily cap, meaning the wheel itself is just an illusion.

Or not, seeing as all MartCoin’s owners are doing is offloading pre-generated points in any event.

Commissions in MartCoin are paid both through an internal exchange and on recruitment.

Converting MART points into real money again through the exchange sees newly invested funds used to pay existing MartCoin investors, which is Ponzi fraud. Paying commissions on recruitment adds an additional pyramid layer to the scheme.

The end-game for admins of lending ICO Ponzi scams is pretty straight forward.

ROIs are paid out through the internal exchange until affiliate recruitment inevitably slows down and invested funds run low.

At that point the admins stop paying out and disappear with what’s left. To date MartCoin’s admins claim to have taken in $5.5 million USD.

Early investors make a bit through ROI withdrawals while they last, and of course through pyramid recruitment. Everyone else, which is the vast majority of investors, loses out.

 

Update 4th February 2018 – As of February 2nd, 2018, MartCoin has collapsed.

As per social media commentary from MartCoin affiliates, withdrawal requests have not been going through for some time.
