CryptoLux provides no actual information on their website about who owns or runs the company.

As is typical of MLM crypto opportunities, a stock image of some guy is used to represent “Robert Alexander”, who CryptoLux claim is CEO and Founder of the company.

The same name and corporate bio appears on another website, FXTM Capital (Advanced Markets Invest):

FXTM Capital appears to be a collapsed Ponzi scheme touting a 100% monthly ROI.

It should be obvious that whoever is behind FXTM Capital is also behind CryptoLux.

The CryptoLux website domain (“cryptolux.io”) was privately registered on November 28th, 2017.

In an effort to feign legitimacy, CryptoLux provides a UK incorporation link on their website for “CryptoLux LTD”.

UK incorporation is dirt cheap and for the most part unregulated. It is a favorite for scammers looking to incorporate dodgy companies.

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.

Residual Commissions

CryptoLux pays residual 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.

CryptoLux cap payable unilevel team levels at ten.

How many unilevel team levels a CryptoLux affiliate earns residual commissions on is determined by how much they’ve invested:

  • Bronze affiliates earn 8% on level 1 (personally recruited affiliates), 3% on level 2, 2% on level 3 and 1% on levels 4 to 6
  • Silver affiliates earn 8% on level 1, 3% on level 2, 2% on levels 3 and 4 and 1% on levels 5 and 6
  • Gold affiliates earn 8% on level 1, 3% on level 2, 2% on levels 3 and 4, 1% on levels 5 and 6 and 0.5% on level 7
  • Platinum affiliates earn 8% on level 1, 3% on level 2, 2% on levels 3 to 5 and 1% on levels 6 and 7
  • Sapphire affiliates earn 8% on level 1, 3% on level 2, 2% on levels 3 to 5, 1% on levels 6 and 7 and 0.5% on level 8

Conclusion

FXTM Capital is a failed forex trading Ponzi scheme.

CryptoLux is basically the same thing, only this time around the ruse is cryptocurrency trading.

CryptoLux claims it generates external ROI revenue through “AI based crypto-trading systems”.

Naturally the company provides no evidence of any such systems existing. Nor is there any evidence of any other external ROI revenue provided.

In true Ponzi fashion, what this means is CryptoLux will continue to pay ROIs until newly invested funds dry up.

Recruitment commissions add an additional pyramid layer the scheme.

As with all such scams, a decline in affiliate recruitment corresponds to a decline in new investment.

This will see CryptoLux collapse, resulting in the majority of affiliates losing money.

The use of cryptocurrency to invest and CLX points as a vehicle to exit-scam through, guarantees that CryptoLux victim recovery efforts will be minimal.
