Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

At a quick look, there's a real lack of detail on their website. They also reference a news article that has the word "allegedly" regarding their endorsement from a sovereign nation. That's not a great vote of confidence, and it's definitely a red flag to me.

Personally, I'd like to do more fact checking before I made a decision on something like this. Due diligence is never overrated.

Usually, I will just look at the founders and advisors to determine if it's a legit project.

From my experience, if it says ICO then it is a scam.
