Infinite X fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Infinite X marketing materials cite “Ethan Cate” as the company’s CEO.

“Ethan Cate” of course doesn’t exist. The scammers running Infinite X have stolen a profile photo of Roland Kickinger, an Austrian actor and bodybuilder.

I’m noting here that the scammers behind Infinite X have gone so far as to create AI-generated marketing videos featuring Kickinger as “Ethan Cate”.

Kickinger has nothing to do with Infinite X. His identity has been misappropriated.

Despite the obvious fraud above, Infinite X feigns legal compliance by presenting a FinCEN MSB license as proof of legitimacy.

The certificates are for “Infinite X Foundation LTD”, represented to be a Colorado registered company.

Due to the ease with which scammers are able to incorporate shell companies with bogus details, for the purpose of MLM due-diligence these certificates are meaningless.

FinCEN isn’t a financial regulator. MSB registration of a shell company with FinCEN is equally meaningless.

If we look at the source-code of Infinite-X’s website, we find Chinese:

As opposed to the US, this suggests whoever is behind Infinite X has ties to China.

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.

Infinite X’s Products

Infinite X has no retailable products or services.

Promoters are only able to market Infinite X promoter membership itself.

Infinite X’s Compensation Plan

The MLM side of Infinite X pays on recruitment of promoter investors.

Along with their respective qualification criteria, they are as follows:

Transaction Fee Rebates

  • VIP2 ranked promoters receive a 40% rebate
  • VIP3 ranked promoters receive a 50% rebate
  • VIP4 ranked promoters receive a 60% rebate
  • VIP5 ranked promoters receive a 65% rebate
  • VIP6 ranked promoters receive a 70% rebate
  • VIP7 ranked promoters receive a 75% rebate
  • VIP8 ranked promoters receive an 80% rebate

Note that the above percentages are coded, meaning higher ranked Infinite X promoters receive the rebate difference between their own rank and lower ranked downline promoters.

Again, Infinite X do not disclose transaction fee amounts on their website or in their marketing materials.

Weekly Bonus Pool

Infinite X takes an unspecified amount of company-wide invested USDT and places it into a bonus pool.

The bonus pool is split into rank-corresponding smaller pools and paid out weekly:

  • VIP1 ranked promoters receive a share in a 15% bonus pool
  • VIP2 ranked promoters receive a share in a 15% bonus pool
  • VIP3 ranked promoters receive a share in a 10% bonus pool

  • VIP8 ranked promoters receive a share in a 5% bonus pool
  • VIP9 ranked promoters receive a share in a 5% bonus pool

Weekly Bonus Pool Match

Infinite X pays a match on downline bonus pool payments via a unilevel compensation structure.

A unilevel compensation structure places a promoter at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited promoter placed directly under them (level 1):

If any level 1 promoters recruit new promoters, they are placed on level 2 of the original promoter’s unilevel team.

If any level 2 promoters recruit new promoters, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.

Infinite X caps the bonus pool match at fifty unilevel team levels:

  • level 1 (personally recruited promoters) – 90% match
  • level 2 – 80% match
  • level 3 – 70% match
  • level 4 – 60% match
  • level 5 – 50% match
  • level 6 – 40% match
  • level 7 – 35% match
  • level 8 – 30% match
  • level 9 – 25% match
  • levels 10 to 19 – 20% match
  • levels 20 to 29 – 15% match
  • levels 30 to 39 – 10% match
  • levels 40 to 49 – 5% match

Monthly Bonus Pool

Infinte X takes 5% of transaction fees charged to promoters and places it into a monthly bonus pool.

  • VIP8 ranked promoters receive a share in 60% of the monthly bonus pool
  • VIP9 ranked promoters receive a share in 40% of the monthly bonus pool

Joining Infinite X

Infinite X promoter membership is free.

Full participation in the attached income opportunity requires an undisclosed minimum investment in USDT.

Infinite X Conclusion

Infinite X is yet another “click a button” app Ponzi scheme.

Infinite X’s “click a button” Ponzi ruse is quantitative trading:

To that end Infinite X’s website and marketing materials are full of AI-generated baloney about quantitative AI trading. None of this has anything to do with Infinite X’s MLM opportunity.

Infinite X promoters 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 Infinite X 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 Infinite X’s app does nothing. All Infinite X does is recycle newly invested funds to pay earlier investors.

Infinite X 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.

In June 2025, Amnesty International claimed Cambodia’s government was

“deliberately ignoring” abuses by cybercrime gangs who have trafficked people from across the world, including children, into slavery at brutal scam compounds.

The London-based group said in a report that it had identified 53 scam centres and dozens more suspected sites across the country, including the Southeast Asian nation’s capital, Phnom Penh.

The prison-like compounds were ringed by high fences with razor wire, guarded by armed men and staffed by trafficking victims forced to defraud people across the globe, it said, with those inside subjected to punishments including shocks from electric batons, confinement in dark rooms and beatings.

In July 2025 Cambodia arrested over 1000 cybercrime suspects. Twenty-seven of those arrested were members of Chinese criminal gangs.

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.
