SKP Mine Review: Cloud mining “click a button” app Ponzi
SKP Mine (aka Skip Cloud Miner and SK Pools), fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
SKP Mine’s website domain (“skpools.pro”), was privately registered on June 3rd, 2023.
If we look at SKP Mine’s website source-code, we find the site is localised to Chinese.
This strongly suggests whoever is running SKP Mine has ties to China.
Note that although it is being run by Chinese scammers, SKP Mine is primarily targeting the Philippines.
SimilarWeb currently ranks the Philippines as the top source of traffic to SKP Mine’s website (16% for September 2023, down 87% month on month). SKP Mine official marketing material is also presented in Philippine peso equivalents.
Other sources of SKP Mine traffic include Indonesia (13%), Egypt (12%), Russia (7%) and Turkey (7%).
