Taurise Review: Crypto mining rig smokescreen Ponzi
The first thing visitors to the Taurise website are presented with is a poorly dubbed marketing video featuring “Robert Mackay” and “Rachel Davis”.
As this example shows, these are obviously actors with the set rented office space in who knows where.
The Taurise website domain was privately registered on February 26th, 2018.
Taurise do provide an incorporation certificate for “Taurise Limited”.
Taurise Limited was incorporated in the UK on February 27th, 2018.
UK incorporation is dirt cheap and for the most part unregulated. It is a favorite for scammers looking to incorporate dodgy companies.
For some reason Taurise also provide a patent certificate for some sort of cryptocurrency hardware miner.
The certificate appears to be bogus, with the actual 8,759,864 patent awarded in 2014 for an organic light-emitting element.
At the time of publication Alexa estimate Russia is the largest source of traffic to the Taurise website (14%).
Turkey is another possibility, with the Turkish word for “standard” appearing on the Taurise website in place of its English equivalent (“standart”).
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.
Taurise Products
Taurise does market cryptocurrency mining rigs, however the sale of the equipment has nothing to do with the company’s MLM opportunity.
The Taurise Compensation Plan
Taurise affiliates invest funds on the promise of an advertised ROI:
- Beginner – invest $30 to $199 and receive a 118% ROI after 10 days

Referral Commissions
Taurise pays referral commissions 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.
Taurise caps payable unilevel levels at eight.
Referral commissions are paid out as a percentage of funds invested across these eight unilevel team levels as follows:
- level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 7%
- level 2 – 4%
- level 3 – 2%
- level 4 – 1%
- level 5 – 0.5%
- levels 6 to 8 – 0.1%

- generate $30,000 unilevel team investment and receive $400
- generate $60,000 unilevel team investment and receive $500

Conclusion
Taurise claim to generate external ROI revenue through cryptocurrency trading, mining and sale of mining equipment.
No evidence of either of these activities actually providing external ROI revenue is provided.
Furthermore Taurise’s business model fails the Ponzi logic test.
If Taurise’s anonymous owners were legitimately able to generate a 187.5% ROI every 25 days (2738% annually), why would they be soliciting investment from randoms over the internet?
And why do it using dodgy dubbed marketing videos and bogus certificates?
As it stands the only verifiable source of revenue entering Taurise is new affiliate investment.
Using newly invested funds to pay existing affiliates a ROI makes Taurise a Ponzi scheme.
As with all Ponzi schemes, once new affiliate recruitment dries up so too will newly invested funds.
This will starve Taurise of ROI revenue, eventually prompting a collapse.
The math behind Ponzi schemes guarantees that when they collapse, the majority of investors lose money.
Another video in rented office with paid actors. It is so obvious.
Where is this office? Are potential members allowed to visit this office in person? Of course not because there is no “office” there. It was just rented out for a few hours to film this video.
Wake up ponzi participants. Don’t lose more money in this latest scheme.
lol @ the lip synching to software generated voices.
The ENTIRE certificate is bogus. US patent letter is composed of TWO pages, the letter awarding the patent, AND a second page listing the patent number and a diagram of such. The text is NOT squeezed into a tiny little corner like that. The wording is also wrong.
You can look it up by simply search on “US patent certificate” and look through a couple links. You’ll see a couple real ones.
This thing is so fake, it’s stupid.
Nice work, K Chang.
Who falls for these?
And that will be all from me now.
Idiots fall for these schemes, and not just once.
People who don’t know anything about the topic AND are too tempted by fast, easy and foolish money to bother with petty stuff like researching first.
You know, like people I knew who got suckered into Zeekler.
Xorly
may i ask updates about taurise?
Sure. Based on its business model Taurise is still a Ponzi scheme.
That is all.
BEWARE… There’s sites popping up now using the same Taurise website and scamming through Telagram, Skype, Facebook,etc. Look at tradingalley.org hannacapital.ltd zapmatemining.com
They are very clever, the scammers troll social media sites pretending to be members and post big payouts showing the blockchain transaction ID.
Type those transaction Id’s and track them in blockchain, they’re not real. They also have very nice admins that are convincing saying things like… Rose luan: But note that you’re safe and secured!
Someone’s getting their money’s worth with that site template.
Darlene did you get your profit. I was so stupid to pay 325 dollar they promise à profit than of 3000 dollar after I payed the 325 dollar.
they ask me now to pay more fees 1000 dollar to get my profit I refuse it and they assume me the site is zapmatemining.
