Conclusion

The company portrays itself as a ‘source for education, information, and training on everything cryptocurrency.’ but they are fully focused onmarketing the income opportunity over whatever training is bundled with $9.95 a month to 99.95 per month membership fees.

If you take a close look at the site, you will see a brief explanation about the MLM opportunity they provide. This is ironical because they do not provide any deep knowledge or ‘explanations’ about the courses they are offering. Are they really selling courses and educational materials? Or they are just another MLM company under the guise of providing crypto-education.

As a prospective iCoinPro affiliate, all you need to do is ask your potential upline affiliate for the receipts of the retail sale the company requires them to keep:

A Distributor is required to keep all records of Retail Sales for at least four years and compliance with Retail Sales requirements of the Company is randomly monitored by the Company.

iCoinPro operating as a pyramid scheme would see the majority of memberships sold purchased by affiliates.

In this case, for any potential affiliates, if the initial recruitment hype dies down, they are going to lose money.
