Seriously, i can't understand what does this mean , as am not an airdrop fun.

What do you think ?

Sounds like a scam. It seems to me like they're giving you a worthless token, and if you buy more of another worthless token they offer, you get more of the worthless airdropped token.

Don't touch anything from yobit is my advice.

Especially not if it has anything to do with their "InvestBox", as anything related to that is pure cancer, a scam, and should be avoided like the plague..

This has nothing to do with crypto anymore at this point, it's just a more sophisticated pyramid/ponzi/HYIP scheme.

Thank you so much . Am followig all of your advices with all the exchanges. Do you think am receiving this because am a "yobit panel" user as a cryptotalk signature participant here? I remember received a yobit mail invitation to invest box when i reached 0.01 btc in my btc balance. This thread may inform if every user of yobit have received this email.

I'm not sure i'm understanding you correctly..  are you registered to the yobit exchange? If so, i think you're automatically subscribed to all of their emails.


If not, they probably got your email adress from another crypto service you are registered to (which either sold it to them or got hacked). I'm not sure if yobit actually does that though (using email lists which do not stem from them), but i wouldn't be surprised.

If you are not a fan of airdrop or simply not interested in that kind of thing then just simply ignored it.

It looks like a promotion of YO token and I suggest to stay away. It's a trap. Surely you will just receive useless low cap coins in return.

Your email is listed in Yobit's mailbox automatically once you register. All registered users will receive emails from them regularly even they aren't part of Cryptotalk signature. I even got one.

You can opt-out from receiving emails under Settings or it should have an unsubscribe link under the content of that email.

Well, the emails say that they are creating another NEW COIN, which actually means they want to push the YO price... Simple gameplay...
and in future when they will want to push the price of that NEW COIN too, they will create another coin. This will never stop I guess.

It's nothing new, Yobit has played such games many times in the past; like LIZA, LIZUN, LIMBO, LAMBO etc.

You received this mail because you are a registered user of Yobit.

[BitMaxz]

I thought it's free because yobit said you will get 100 coins if your yo tokens are zero but if you receive new coins 99% of your balance will be moved to invest box which is obvious you can only get 1 coin and never get them back.

They making us confuse about their promotion only newbies can fall for this but for those people who understand the email message as posted above, I'm sure they will ignore it.

This is a blackhat way to promote their business with a little trick. It is likely the same as this below


- I will give you 100USD if you have 0 remaining balance
- 99% will be donated to the orphanage

Then obviously you can only get $1.

I don't want others to follow those emails. This is a clear way to deceive users by encouraging them to make risk invests.
I hope this thread warn some of those searching about the content of the email, out of the exchange channels <if any> .  Thank you for your comment, you understood me very well.

^ My first time opening investbox and this is what it says:

Invest your free coins to InvestBox! It’s a tool for devs to promote their coins. It’s NOT Pyramid/HYIP, all payments are made from special fund. InvestBoxes can change status from Active to «No coins», but you can close your investment any time, it’s 100% safe.

If I do get those airdropped coins/tokens, I'd like to test if it can be withdrawn easily.

[SusantS]

Don't' know much about this one you are talking about. I am also a newbie and recently started learning cryptocurrency exchanges. I came across through different platform all-stocks.net for example. Though I am open to any other crypto exchange platform. Let me know if there something reliable.

[sunsilk]

They want to pump the yo token that they own. That's why it's on their airdrop rule whenever you hold that token, you'll get some bonus. But even if you don't have, they'll still give you a bunch of probable worthless tokens that will automatically go to the invest box.

It was very well explained by bitmaxz.

[coupable]

They want to pump the YO token that they own.

Not only by airdroping it to potentiel investors, but also by spending a fortune to create a fully dedicated forum for the promotion of their Shit tokens. It's clear how they are aiming to growth their Business Now.

Yet you are wearing a signature of the forum that Yobit is backing, part of the profit from the coins that you are calling shitcoins will be used to pay your effort to call Yobit's coin a shitcoin, better do that when you are not wearing their signature

You think that i , as a cryptotalk signature participants , shouldn't discuss Yobit activities or describe their tokens as shit. I expected to receive this note , then this is my answer:  First, am a participants of a signature camaign in bitcointalk forum. The campaign is managed by the best manager here "yahoo..." and am using Yobit panel to receive paiement. If you think something is wrong with this campaign, please make an announcement or contact the manager.  Second, here is the "service discussion" board where we can discuss Yobit strategies and Cryptotalk forum activity. No reason to prevent users from posting their opinion  whatever the signature they wear.  By following your opinion, manager Yahoo can't criticise Yobit and Adolfinwolf shouldn't criticise ChipMixer !!!
Anyway, thanks for your honest opinion.

I thought it's free because yobit said you will get 100 coins if your yo tokens are zero but if you receive new coins 99% of your balance will be moved to invest box which is obvious you can only get 1 coin and never get them back.

What is this invest box?
From the way you described it, it sounds like those fake promotions where you get 100$ free but you have to buy 1000$ worth of merchandise first!
I know yobit is shady but even for them to go that low is a bit weird.

The first thing Ponzi schemes claim is that they are not a Ponzi scheme!!
All comes from a "special fund". Of course, a special secret fud that produces money!

InvestBoxes can change status from Active to «No coins», but you can close your investment any time, it’s 100% safe.

Funds are SAFU reloaded!

There no harm to try though as long we wont pull any funds came from out pocket.I received the same email too about this Yobit airdrop and since
you can get some 100 coins for free without any need of investment then there would be no risk.Lets just observe on how this staking or interest goes overtime.
Im already done with airdrops but if it don't require anything then it isn't bad to join.

From what i understood when i looked into it a while ago: this is exactly the premise of the InvestBox.

For example: They ask you to hold (buy) 1000 coins of MOON MOON, through their IEO, and if you do: they will give you 4% returns on MOON MOON "for ever". (In MOON MOON), and you can't cash out until after a week or something, or if you partially cash out, you don't get daily returns anymore.

Of course, at some point MOON MOON crashes to 1 sat (yobit runs with the btc funds they received in the IEO), and everyone is left holding 10 bazillion MOON MOON worth nothing.
Here are two coins which were IEO's on yobit, and which were also on the investBox with the "endless returns" premise.. --

Needless to say: it didn't end well..

[tinyteapot]

I also received the same email, i guess this is the first time yobit will be distributing airdrop besides those btc forks that were distributed based on your btc balance.

If you have 0 Yo Tokens - You'll got 100 new coins
Special Bonus for Yo Holders (Yo*XX)

I wish they can explain this better starting from 0.000001 YO coin to the new airdrop coin.

AirDrop in...

- Get new coins for Free
- If you have 0 Yo Tokens - You'll got 100 coins
- Special Bonus for Yo Holders (Yo*XX)
- 99% of new coin balance will be moved to InvestBox (new type)
- Daily InvestBox (special percent for Yo Holders)

Seriously, i can't understand what does this mean , as am not an airdrop fun.

This is just a countdown to when the airdrop shall be distributed.

You can add more his coin on the list:
LIZA
LAMBO
LIMBO
LIZUN
YOBIX
YONE
PONY
YO (I think this is the last and most active)

You forgot to say when his coins drop to 1 sat, they usually do the denomination so they renew the circle.

Then what's the big deal about Yobit's promotion? Are we reacting too much even if it looks unpleasant, based on how it looks like? I guess sometimes we're just overreacting on things which isn't yet happening. Though we received emails about the airdrop, I don't think it looks like shady promotion since the 100 coins automatically topped up on my investment box at yobit exchange profile. If happens, there will be issues like they're asking money from us personally, then that's the time we should rant for any speculative ideas. For now let's just wait and see, enjoy this opportunity until reaching our destinations.
