The 17-year old so-called \'investor\', or investment advisor, became famous for posting videos on the social media channel telling people how much he earns and promoting cryptocurrency trading.

Six months ago, it was $3,500 a month. Five months ago it was $100,000 in four months. One month ago it was $1m a year. You don\'t need to be a mathematician to figure that these claims don\'t compute. As of 1st February, however, that is almost the sum total of CryptoNick\'s published information.

He does add the disclaimer, that \"This is NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE…Just my speculative opinion.\" On the other hand, there is a link on the page to a site where CryptoNick and Ryan Hildreth offer a course in \"Bitcoin Mastery: The Ultimate Program To A 6 Figure Cryptocurrency Income\" – yours for a mere $497.

Several of the Featured Channels also belong to named Defendants (including Ryan Hildreth) in a class action law suit, filed on January 24th in Florida against exchange trading platform BitConnect.

BitConnect closed its trading platform on January 17th
