Conclusion

Zouk Coin claim to generate external revenue through a “trading platform with AI”.

There is no evidence provided that the platform exists, or that revenue generated by any such platform is used to pay affiliates.

As it stands the only verifiable source of revenue entering Zouk Coin is new affiliate investment. Using newly invested funds to pay off existing affiliates makes Zouk Coin a Ponzi scheme.

Lending ICO Ponzis like Zouk Coin play out as follows:

Admins (who are typically anonymous) offload worthless pre-generated points in exchange for real money. In this case it’s ZUK points.

The admins then use some of this money to pay promised ROIs for as long as new affiliates sign up.

Once affiliate recruitment dries up so does the ROI reserve.

When a predetermined threshold is reached, the anonymous Zouk Coin admins pull a runner with what’s left.

Early Zouk Coin investors make a bit of money (mostly via recruitment of new investors). But same as any other Ponzi scheme, the reality of such scams is that the majority of participants eventually lose money.
