Title: Bitclub and USA ?
Post by: lightfoot500 on December 15, 2017, 03:35:57 PM
Hi, i am very new to all this so take it easy on a newbie, please.

I know there are alot of group funding type pools like this one that may allow us citizens. but i am
looking at bitclub because i have a friend already in.  but they say they dont allow citizens from the usa.  but i have talked to usa citizens who are in bitclub.
i dont know if they joined before and are now "grandfathered" in, so
from what i can see, i could join, and get started using a vpn, etc. 

what i want to know is whether they are really enforcing this rule about the usa ?

they say there is a full refund if you do join and they decide to give you the boot.

Is there an underlying reason, like they dont want traffic going directly from the usa to the website ?

thank you for any information.

My def of scam would be the miners saying they're not getting paid.  You did actually read it, right?  :P
