The grift counter at https://web3isgoinggreat.com/ tracks the rough USD equivalent of value lost to major crypto scams/hacks/fraud.

The question resolves based on the total sum added to the leaderboard at https://web3isgoinggreat.com/charts/top for the one month of market duration. Will resolve based on the value in the first day after market close - estimates for older events are sometimes revisited in light of new evidence, but this won't change ther resolution of this market.

Some stats so far (in millions USD):

Dec 16th - Jan 15th: 186

Jan 16th - Feb 15th: 193 (as of resolution) / 252 (after later updates)

Feb 16th - Mar 15th: 354

Mar 16th - Apr 15th: 194

If Molly White ceases to regularly update the website, this will resolve NA.

New York Attorney General sues over $1 billion NovaTech and AWS Mining crypto pyramid schemes
The New York Attorney General’s office has sued Cynthia and Eddy Petion over two allegedly fraudulent cryptocurrency pyramid schemes called AWS Mining and NovaTech. They particularly targeted victims of Haitian descent, promoting their schemes in Creole, leveraging their victims’ religion, and promising them “financial freedom” and “freedom from the plantation”.In reality, the schemes were pyramid schemes in which investors earned crypto for recruiting others to buy in. NovaTech also used the funds from newer investors to pay out the supposed “returns” from the investment scheme, in a classic Ponzi fashion. From August 2019 – April 2023, victims deposited more than $1 billion into NovaTech. Though it was described as a trading operation, only about $26 million ever went into crypto trading.In June 2022, the couple secretly sold their Florida house and moved to Panama, while continuing to pretend they were in the state. Speaking to another operator of the scheme, Cynthia Petion advised: “leave the country…they can’t serve you if they can’t find you lol.”
