According to a recent judgement, the Jiangsu Yancheng Intermediate People's Court gave a public count of the funds they’ve seized related to the PlusToken scam:
- 194,775 BTC (= $3.26 Billion)
- 833,083 ETH (= $420 Million)
- 1,400,000 LTC (= $94 Million)
- 27,600,000 EOS (= $77 Million)
- 74,167 DASH (= $6.6 Million)
- 487,000,000 XRP (= $257 Million)
- 6,000,000,000 DOGE (= $19.8 Million)
- 79,581 BCH (= $20.8 Million)
- 213,724 USDT
All in all, the funds amount to $4.15 Billion at current prices.
PlusToken
To this day, PlusToken remains the biggest single scam to occur within the cryptocurrency industry. The scammers portrayed the project as a high-yield investment program which was falsely advertising 9-18% monthly returns. The scam was a typical Ponzi Scheme which used funds from new investors to pay older investors which started its operations in March 2018. On the 30th of June 2019 all payments stopped and they released the message “Sorry, we have run”.
PlusToken: Continuous Selling Pressure
The funds stolen had a very significant market value and could have an even larger market impact. Multiple sources and blockchain analysts had reviewed movements from the addresses linked to the scam and paired them with price action. On multiple occasions, movements out of the PlusToken wallets was associated with downside market movement indicating that they were “cashing out”. This was especially apparent in 2019 after the major run which ended at the start of the summer.
Now with the funds held by the police, this particular source of selling pressure should (in theory) decrease or be eliminated if “all” stolen funds were seized.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
