BitPay Mining fails to provide ownership or executive information on any of its websites.

BitPay Mining previously operated from three known website subdomains on the domain “ht-88.com” (private registration last updated on June 9th, 2025):

  1. bit048.ht-88.com (already abandoned)
  2. bit003.ht-88.com (already abandoned)
  3. bit048.ht-88.com (already abandoned)

Given the “bitXXX” formula used to spin up these BitPay Mining website subdomains, there are likely others.

Currently BitPay Mining is operating from the subdomains:

  1. h1137.jckx.net – private registration last updated on April 24th, 2025
  2. bit019.22wqq.com – private registration last updated on April 16th, 2025

Again, these appear to be another set of formulaic subdomains created on primary domains. There are likely other BitPay Mining subdomains and domains not referenced here.

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.

BitPay Mining Conclusion

BitPay Mining is yet another “click a button” app Ponzi scheme.

BitPay Mining’s “click a button” Ponzi ruse is quantitative trading:

The presented ruse is BitPay Mining affiliates log in and click a button (the more invested the more the button needs to be clicked).

Clicking the button purportedly generates revenue via quantitative trading, which for some reason BitPay Mining shares a percentage of with affiliate investors.

If that makes no sense it’s because it doesn’t. Randoms clicking a button in an app doesn’t trigger quantitative trading.

In reality clicking a button inside BitPay Mining’s app does nothing. All BitPay Mining does is recycle newly invested funds to pay earlier investors.

BitPay Mining is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis that have emerged since late 2021.

Examples of already collapsed “click a button” app Ponzis using the same quantitative trading ruse are Finance AI, Nextera Quantitative and DP Quant AI.

Since 2021 BehindMLM has documented hundreds of “click a button” app Ponzis. Most of them last a few weeks to a few months before collapsing.

“Click a button” app Ponzis disappear by disabling both their websites and app. This tends to happen without notice, leaving the majority of investors with a loss (inevitable Ponzi math).

In the lead up to a collapse, “click a button” Ponzi investors also tend to find their accounts locked. This typically coincides with a withdrawal request.

As part of a collapse, “click a button” Ponzi scammers often initiate recovery scams. This sees the scammers demand investors pay a fee to access funds and/or re enable withdrawals.

If any payments are made withdrawals remain disabled or the scammers cease communication.

Organized crime interests from China operate scam factories behind “click a button” Ponzis from south-east Asian countries.

In September 2024, the US Department of Treasury sanctioned Cambodian politician Ly Yong Phat over ties to Chinese human trafficking scam factories.

Through various companies he owns, Phat is alleged to shelter Chinese scammers operating out of Cambodia.

Myanmar claims to have deported over 50,000 Chinese scam factory scammers since October 2023. With “click a button” app scams continuing to feature on BehindMLM though, it is clearly not enough.

In late January 2025, Chinese ministry representatives visited Thailand. The stated aim of the visit was to tackle organized Chinese crime gangs operating from Myanmar.

In early February 2025, Thailand announced it had cut power, internet access and petrol supplies to Chinese scam factories operating across its border with Myanmar.

As of February 20th, Thai and Chinese authorities claim ten thousand trafficked hostages had been freed from Myanmar compounds.

Also on February 20th, five Chinese crime bosses were nabbed in a wider raid of four hundred and fifty arrests in the Philippines.

On March 19th it was reported that, despite the recent raids and arrests, “up to 100,000 people” are still working in Chinese Myanmar scam factories.

As of April 2025 and in response to a crackdown across Asia, newly opened Chinese scam factories have been reported in Nigeria, Angola and Brazil.

Myawaddy is an area in Myanmar along the Thai border. Myawaddy is under the control of the Karen National Army (KNA).

The KNA, led by warlord Chit Thu (right) and sons Saw Htoo Eh Moo and Saw Chit Chit, protect and profit from organized Chinese criminals running “click a button” Ponzi scam factories.

On May 5th the US imposed sanctions on Chit Thu (right).

The Treasury said the warlord, Saw Chit Thu, is a central figure in a network of illicit and highly lucrative cyberscam operations targeting Americans.

The move puts financial sanctions on Saw Chit Thu, the Karen National Army that he heads, and his two sons, Saw Htoo Eh Moo and Saw Chit Chit, the department said in a statement, freezing any U.S. assets they may hold and generally barring Americans from doing business with them.

Britain and the European Union have already imposed sanctions on Saw Chit Thu.

A May 25th report cites Myanmar and Loas as having “towering scam economies”. Cambodia however is reported to be a hotspot for Chinese criminal activity.

Cambodia is likely the absolute global epicentre of next-gen transnational fraud in 2025 and is certainly the country most primed for explosive growth going forward.

Cambodia is becoming the centre of an exploding global scam economy driven primarily by Chinese organised crime.

Chinese gangs are reported to operate in Cambodia under the protection of unnamed local politicians.

Regardless of which country they operate from, ultimately the same group of Chinese scammers are believed to be behind the “click a button” app Ponzi plague.
