Finterra fights against Ponzi Schemes

Bernie Mad off may be one of the most well-known Ponzi schemers He did it with mainstream investments. But the principle of a  pyramid scheme , in which you take money from new investors to pay previous investors, can be applied to Bitcoin scams. In 2019, three men were arrested in a $722 million cryptocurrency fraud scheme. The men operated BitClub Network for years. The scheme solicited money from investors in exchange for shares of cryptocurrency mining pools. It also supposedly rewarded investors for recruiting new investors. As you can imagine, the investors never got any returns on their investments in the end.

Islamic Finance — New Or Old?

  As I continue looking at the Islamic Fintech Finance Industry, interesting facts and answers to questions concerning the sector keep on presenting themselves. For instance, how old is the institution of Islamic Finance? As I trawl through my go to site at the moment, GF Global, for all things concerning Islamic Finance, this piece caught my attention. Apparently, for hundreds of years, there was no need for Islamic finance , simply because there was no financial system to “Islamise.” Until the second half of the 19th century, the majority of the Muslim population around the world was unbanked and the prohibition of interest was applied on transactions by tradition rather than by law or regulatory bodies. It was during the colonial era, Western banks and financial institutions penetrated Muslim countries and imposed interest-based methods on the Islamic world. In the 1940s and 1950s, independence movements pushed for the revival of Islamic culture and religious scho...
