Part Two:

Oh man ... this Lui was a total pyramid ponzi scammer / shitcoiner, the equivalent of a Chinese Bitconnet! Hey hey hey!!!!

But in 2014, Liu embarked on a caper in China. He touted a cryptocurrency with an ex-convict, Du Ling, known as the “queen of underground banking,” according to interviews, media reports and Chinese court documents.

It was all a fraud, authorities said. Chinese courts convicted the banking queen and others on charges of swindling more than 34,000 investors from whom they raised over $200 million.
