Exclusive: Possible $500,000 Bitcoin Cloud Mining Ponzi Scheme Uncovered

Quote
Roughly nine months ago, Bitcoin Foundation Chief Scientist Gavin Andresen made a rather interesting comment on Reddit in which he claimed, “I suspect many [cloud mining companies] will turn out to be Ponzi schemes.”

There have been a few cloud mining scams uncovered over the past year or two, and it appears that another one could unravel in the near future. An anonymous source has provided information to Bitcoin Magazine regarding the possibility of a scam involving Bitcoin Cloud Services (BCS), which is currently one of the largest cloud-mining providers on the market.
