Title: Is this a scam or not?

A friend just invested 10200 euros in coinsrace.com

He showed me his account but to me it seems like a scam ....

What do you guys think?

Anyone has an account there?

Is it ok if the coin can be only mined if you join that site?

When I wrote in debug windows of the wallet get mining info I got the speed at 1.256223 mbps .... and it seemed strange to me because they sell online mining because that's the only way to mine that coin.

Any tips are welcome!

Doesn't make much sense to "invest" there. Why give your Bitcoin or Fiat for shitcoins? The cloud mining seems bogus too.

Never heard of it.
Didn't your friend do some research before investing that much money?  ???

If you need to ask then it is almost certainly a scam. I am not sure why your "friend" invested so much money there without first doing his due diligence.

Yeah, there's so much generic stock imaging it makes me sick.

He doesn't know anything about cryptos! He found out about this "mcoin" and borrowed some money to be a co-founder member...
He didn't even know how to use the wallet but I showed him how to do it!
He is very impressed about this coin and he is going to Slovenia to meet some people from the coin... he did admitted that what I'm saying is making him questioning the reputation of that site but he said he will ask the owners when he meets them in Slovenia.

What I think is bad is that he really thinks it's a nice thing, and he just hopes that he didn't just blew up 10.000 euros for an experience!
