Yes, it's complete silence there. I still hold a few bnk tokens. I think it's dead. Previously, after purchasing, they used to give a weekly bonus payout in eth. It was a small amount, but it was consistently received. That time, it was like, now there would be a complete revolution in the banking system. Now I see it was just hype created to get the attention of the investors. I still hold those 1000x reduced bnk in my spectroscopic wallet.

Are you a US citizen ? I only ask to see if the SEC can take action.
No. Why? What kind of actions will be there from the SEC for US citizens if they hold BNK tokens? After the successful completion of the ICO, I read somewhere in the news that there was some audit or regulation applied to bnk project, and that went on for a couple of weeks. But I've never heard of the SEC taking any action against US citizens. Anyway, I am uncertain about the future of the Bankera project.


The SEC is not always aware of illegal activity that goes on. From the information I collected in the past few days it seems as if Bankera ICO allowed USA citizens to participate with little KYC to check if they are acredited investors which means they offered the ICO to USA retail investors. This is considered an unregistered sales of securities because Bankera token itself is a security under the howey test and the Bankera ico is an illegal unregistered offerings of securities. This means the SEC can open up a lawsuit to Era Financial LTD (the company who owns bankera), Bankera CEO and Co-Founder, Spectrocoin, and Pervesk. Just because the SEC has not started a lawsuit yet doesn't mean that one won't come. I reported Bankera and Spectrocoin a few days ago to the SEC and I am awaiting a response. The SEC in recent years have been going after crypto companies and I think they will soon get to Bankera.

I recall that it was an era when ICO for the banking industry were all the rage, and many investors were drawn to the world of crypto-based banking. In some instances, ICO investors might have relied on somewhat loose parameters. A team with impressive credentials could be manipulated, a professional whitepaper could be crafted by others, and a website with a .io domain could be built by anyone. It was a realm of total freedom, and there were no checks in place to prevent individuals from launching fake ICOs.

A figure of 151 million dollars is a substantial accomplishment, even if it was the most meticulously executed scam in the ICO world at the time. Presently, money laundering can be easily facilitated, especially within the realm of casinos. They've likely absconded with all the funds they acquired.

However, can you believe that the actual sum is 151 million USD? I mean, websites can be manipulated, and even wallets can receive transfers from other wallets owned by the same person. I am suspicious of ICOs reaching figures above 100 million dollars; they might have manipulated the numbers to attract more investors. The actual proceeds may not be as substantial as claimed.

The above figure was most likely accurate. Bankera itself is just a proxy company for this entire operation. You have Spectrocoin and Pervesk that hold most of the funds. The CEO of Bankera confirmed on telegram that Pervesk is apart of the Bankera ecosystem and he is apart of their board. The Pervesk financial records is publicly available online as well spectrocoin and Bankers. As I said before, Pervesk has most of the funds with a 2022  of 58 million EUR in total assets.

I'm lucky, only invested 0.01 BTC, now worth $12 I think (BNK Tokens). But yes, this is scam obviously but could be worst like with some other ICOs, for example: $STAC (Coinstarter), $STQ (Storiqa), $VNT (Vanta) ... any many more.

Hello, Where you a USA investor who participated in the ICO ?
