A familiar crew of MLM operators has quietly launched Rise Network, the latest iteration of a scheme that's been recycled through multiple companies over the past decade.

Hitesh Juneja, Kevin Hokoana and Jason Rose founded Rise Network, listing a Texas address on the company website. The three names aren't new to the industry. All three ran DS Domination, a dropshipping-plus-recruitment hybrid that launched in 2013. When recruitment dried up two years later, they pivoted to Options Domination alongside partner Roger Langille. Langille, who had built DS Domination's dropshipping reputation, cashed out and disappeared shortly after.

Juneja and Hokoana then steered Options Domination straight into securities fraud. They repeated the play in late 2015 with Infinii, another venture mixing securities offerings with MLM recruitment. A month after BehindMLM published its investigation into Infinii, the company announced it was dropping the securities fraud component. By mid-2016, Infinii was collapsing. They relaunched it as Infinii Digital Signal Forge, itself failing by year's end.

For three years, the trio went quiet. Rise Network's recent launch announcement marks their return.

Rise Network charges $47 monthly for affiliate membership. Affiliates earn $25 per month for each person they recruit. Technically, that's a one-level compensation structure—not technically an MLM. But that distinction collapses when you examine Unbox, the ecommerce platform Rise Network pushes alongside its membership.

Rise Network has no actual products. Affiliates can only recruit other affiliates. The entire value proposition is Unbox membership, an independent platform they promote through "Business Centers" including Metabolic Design, Naturally Essential Oils, Regenefi, payment processing, legal services, digital content and BlockCommerce. Most of these appear to exist primarily as recruitment hooks.

Unbox membership runs $99 upfront, then $39 to $299 monthly for affiliates. A non-affiliate option costs $99 one-time. The commissions tell the real story. Unbox affiliates pocket 100% of initial membership fees (minus payment processing), 40% on monthly recurring fees from recruits, plus a 10% matching bonus on downline commissions down four levels.

This structure—zero retailable products, compensation tied to recruitment, multiple commission layers, and a focus on recruitment over retail—tracks every failed scheme this group has run before. The names change. The company changes. The mechanics stay identical.

Rise Network's website lists no independent verification, audit reports or retail sales data. That silence speaks volumes. When your entire system depends on getting people to pay monthly fees to recruit others, actual commerce becomes irrelevant. Unbox exists as window dressing, a supposed "third-party" platform that conveniently pays commissions flowing upward through the recruitment chain.

Juneja, Hokoana and Rose have now launched or co-launched companies that failed in 2013, 2015, 2015 again, and 2016. Rise Network is the fourth iteration. The pattern is clear: launch, recruit aggressively, collapse, rebrand and repeat. Participants in the earlier versions lost money. Participants in Rise Network should expect the same.
