The Nimbus Platform Ponzi scheme rebranded to Syncord on November 6th.

The rebranding follows the arrest of former CEO Andrea Zanon in Spain last December.

As per a November 6th Nimbus Platform Telegram post;

Our team is thrilled to announce an important change based on extensive work by a dedicated focus group within our community and a deep reflection on the long history of our project. We’ve decided to rebrand: Nimbus is now Syncord.

Claimed reasons for the name-change are “global appeal”, “evolving community and team” (i.e. executives getting arrested), and “meaningful name”.

While Nimbus Platform has announced its name-change, at time of publication the company’s website still has Nimbus Platform branding.

There are no executives featured on Nimbus Platform’s website. The last known CEO running Nimbus Platform was Patricio Pozzi.

Nimbus Platform launched in 2020. The original Ponzi scheme was built around NMBT points.

When that collapsed Zenon rebooted the Ponzi in 2022. Nimbus Platform’s first reboot was the same fraudulent business model with new tokens.

A few months into the second reboot, Nimbus Platform began to stall. This prompted the introduction of a 100% annual ROI.

Nimbus Platform eventually collapsed in December 2022. A Synta token reboot was announced but doesn’t appear to have gone anywhere.

Today Nimbus Platform’s website markets various unregistered crypto staking model investment schemes.

A “Nimbus NFT Smart staker” will purportedly pay 60% annually.

Smart Staker n-NFT automatically generates rewards from two staking streams: with up to 40% APR and 60% APR correspondingly.

Get rewards from the best staking options with just one click, while saving time and gas fees.

Various other investment schemes, build around NIMB and GNIMB tokens are also offered.

As of October 2024, SimilarWeb tracked just 968 monthly visits to Nimbus Platform’s website. 100% of Nimbus Platform’s website traffic is attributed to Spain.

Neither Nimbus Platform, Syncord or any of its executives are registered to offer securities in any jurisdiction.

Zanon is reported to be an Italian born US citizen. Unfortunately there have been no updates on Andrea Zanon’s arrest since last December.

All we know is Spanish authorities began investigating Zanon in 2022.

The investigation actually began in March 2022, when the Spanish Supreme Court urged the National Audience to investigate this matter given the Spanish nationality of some of those accused.

The alarm was raised in Spain by a private individual who sued the Maltese cryptocurrency investment company for defrauding him, he claimed, of 9,000 euros.

And although Zanon has denied his connection to the NIMBUS Platform, he was the only shareholder when the company was set-up with a share capital of 1,200 euros divided into one-euro shares, and his status as sole owner continued until June 2020, when the shares were transferred to another Maltese company, which then transferred them to Odysseas Kimiskez.

Spanish authorities have alleged Nimbus Platform has thus far generated over $135 million in losses.

Following his arrest, Zanon was sent to jail on a provisional basis. Bail was set at 60,000 EUR but it’s unclear whether Zanon paid up.

Zanon’s current whereabouts and status is unknown.

Welcome to a new era for our project! The name Syncord marks the beginning of a new chapter, bringing a fresh style and vision to life.

Who is running Nimbus Platform’s rebranding to Syncord is also unclear.
