So far, there exists
some solicitation to invest in some claim-to-be digital tokens which is in fact
another form of Ponzi scheme. Such scheme can be detected by ambiguous business
plans, products or platforms, as well as the lack of trustworthy personnel.
Therefore, investors should be extra cautious not to get involved in such form
of investment.
Currently,
there is no approved digital token issuers as well as there are no such
applications and/or filing documents being officially submitted to SEC for
digital token offering. Therefore, investors are advised to be cautious with such solicitation. For
inquiries or tips on suspicious activities, please contact SEC Help center via
SEC website or Hotline 1207. If any possible violations of law under supervision
of other agencies are found, SEC will cooperate with the relevant agencies for
further proceedings.
