The Des Alpes MLM crypto pyramid scheme has collapsed.

After initially covering up the collapse with an unplanned maintenance announcement, “the DesAlpes team” have announced a reboot.

Des Alpes is run by Quebec-based fraudster Daniel Dalpe.

On September 19th, 2025, Quebec issued a Des Alpes securities fraud warning. On October 17th, 2025, Alberta issued a Des Alpes securities fraud warning.

Des Alpes pulled its website earlier this month. As previously noted, Des Alpes attempted to cover the collapse with an unscheduled maintenance message:

We are currently undergoing significant maintenance to resolve critical technical issues (genealogy, payment, marketplace) that are affecting certain payments and features.

To ensure that everything functions perfectly and that everyone can receive their funds securely, we have made the decision to temporarily close the site.

That message is now gone. In its place Des Alpes has advised a “new platform is currently under development”.

It’s expected Daniel Dalpe will either:

  1. do nothing (he already has your money);
  2. continue to string Des Alpes victims along with reboot updates to stall for time; or
  3. launch a short-lived Des Alpes reboot that will promptly collapse shortly after launch.

Pending any further updates, we’ll keep you posted.
