In an attempt to portray BitConnect victims filing lawsuits against the company as “
crybaby ass motherfuckers
“, top US investor Trevon James claimed investors elsewhere in the world are fine with collectively losing millions of dollars.

None of the other countries that were in BitConnect, I don’t hear a peep out of them crying or anything.

But yet Americans are the most pussy, softest motherfuckers ever. Crybaby ass motherfuckers man.

Crybabies. No other country is crying about anything.

You go look at a Vietnam video, they still having BitConnect conferences. They still throwing them shits.

(Americans are) a bunch of fucking pussies man.

While I can’t speak to Vietnam, in neighboring Indonesia footage of a BitConnect event held on January 28th directly contradicts James’ assertion.

Turns out victims
anywhere
in the world aren’t happy about being scammed in a Ponzi scheme. Who knew?

In attendance at the Jakarta, Indonesia event is our host, Andrew. Andrew claims to have invested and lost money in BitConnect but doesn’t reveal how much.

In Indonesia the top two promoters appear to be someone who goes by “Mr. Santoso” (credited as Director of BitConnect Indonesia) and Yuris Prasetya (cited as Development Director and a former
OneCoin
Ponzi scammer).

As opposed to events in the past where the lending investment opportunity was heavily pushed, the January 28th event started off as somewhat of a muted affair.

“Some guy” started the event by explaining to investors with basic “cryptocurrency education”.

As Andrew states, “that’s not what (the investors were) there for”.

[5:34] Half of the people there are people like me.

Who want answers, what happened to our investment, who are angry, who are upset, no communication, we are quite pissed off.

Andrew claims the “other half” in attendance were rabidly supportive of BitConnect.

[6:01] Whenever the presenters (made) claims like, “You know what guys, BitConnect’s gonna climb back up, there’s low supply, we have plans,
it’s gonna get up to $1000 by the end of the year
,” those people (were) cheering and clapping.

After “some guy” was done wasting everybody’s time, Yuris Prasetya took to the stage to talk about staking BCC.

For those unfamiliar with the concept of staking, within the context of BitConnect affiliates holding worthless BCC points are rewarded with more worthless points the longer they hold onto their worthless points.

A short while into Prasetya’s presentation, an audience member stood up and began shouting “scam!”.

[6:59] So what happened was this gentleman in the audience started yelling, “scam! give me back my money!”

Prasetya refused to acknowledge the man’s claims and instead stuck to the “I’m explaining about staking” script.

One of Prasetya’s goons then engages the man. A lone event security officer than approaches him and gestures towards the exit.

Moments later an eight to twelve-man goon squad move in and surround the elderly man.
