The PosMiners website provides no information about who owns or runs the company.

The PosMiners website domain (“posminers.com”) was privately registered on December 10th, 2017.

At the time of publication Alexa estimate that Armenia makes up 51% of traffic to the PosMiners website. This suggests that whoever is running PosMiners is probably based out of Armenia itself.

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.

Referral Commissions

PosMiners affiliates are paid referral 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.

PosMiners cap payable unilevel team levels at eight.

Commissions are paid as a percentage of funds invested across these eight levels as follows:

  • level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 5%
  • level 2 – 3%
  • levels 3 and 4 – 1%
  • levels 5 to 8 – 0.5%

Joining PosMiners

PosMiners affiliate membership is free, however free affiliates can only earn referral commissions.

Full participation in the PosMiners income opportunity requires a minimum 0.01 BTC and/or 500 GPKR investment.

Conclusion

PosMiners claim to generate ROI revenue via “well calculated algorithms”.

PosMiners claim the algorithms ‘makes our company sustainable, and the ROI 100% guaranteed‘.

Two things:

  1. PosMiners provide no evidence whatsoever of algorithms being used to generate external ROI revenue.
  2. anybody in possession of an algorithm that generated a 100% guaranteed ROI would keep it to themselves.

As it stands the only verifiable source of revenue entering PosMiners is new investment.

Using new investment to pay existing affiliates a 45 day ROI makes PosMiners a Ponzi scheme.

PosMiners anonymous owners also seem to have a vested interest in Gold Poker, as its otherwise a somewhat random altcoin to base their Ponzi scheme on.

According to CoinMarketCap, Gold Poker began publicly trading on or around August 17th.

After debuting at $2.83, GPKR is now following your typical altcoin trajectory with a current value of $2.43.

Regardless of the value of GPKR, PosMiners will collapse once affiliate recruitment and new investment dries up.

The math behind Ponzi schemes guarantees that when the collapse, the majority of investors lose money.
