Trevon James has uploaded a new video discussing his part in the ongoing SEC investigation into BitConnect.

I’ve given up trying to ascertain whether James is parodying himself as a securities fraud suspect, so the following is reported “as is” with a straight face.

Trevon James Brown is a person of interest in an ongoing SEC investigation into the collapsed BitConnect Ponzi scheme.

Details of the SEC’s case have yet to be made public, so unfortunately we can’t provide you detailed case-specific information.

What we can tell you is last September James was
subpoenaed to testify before the SEC
. Last we heard James was
prohibited from talking about his testimony
, but that directive now seems to have gone out the window.

In an August 12th video uploaded to his YouTube channel, James reveals he was subpoenaed to testify before five SEC attorneys.

Despite stating he didn’t understand the advice he “seek counsel and all this stuff I don’t understand”, James is adamant he didn’t need an attorney.

Furthermore, despite driving around in a BMW SUV, buying land and building a house on it, and recently seeking advice on investing a million dollars into real-estate, James maintains he can’t afford a lawyer.

James claims his testimony came to an end after he was posed potentially incriminating questions and pleaded the fifth.

Later in the video James contemplates his role as a top promoter of BitConnect, and the legal ramification this brings with it.

[8:36] My mind state up until recently was, what I’m seeing online is,
“you’re going to jail”, “you should go to hell”, “you’re a scammer” 
da-da-da.

So that kinda makes my … that pretty much forces a certain perspective that um, makes me have this perspective of myself that, well maybe I did something wrong, y’know?

Maybe I’m going to jail. Maybe I’m having all these bad thoughts because of people online.

And so up until recently that was my perspective.

But then recently I’ve just been like, 
well hold on a second. Why would I be in trouble for um promoting something that I didn’t create?

The person that should be held accountable is obviously the person that created this.

I can’t help that the (BitConnect) website was made available to me. The website shouldn’t have even been online.

The fact that someone made it (the website) available to me, should wipe away the guilt from me cause I didn’t create the thing.

Had James of spent some of his BitConnect fortune on a lawyer, they’d have no doubt informed him that promotion of unregistered securities is illegal.

Ignorant of how being a top promoter and net-winner in a multi-billion dollar Ponzi scheme makes him a person of interest in
ongoing investigations
, James expresses his dismay at receiving an email from the SEC “a few days ago”.

[10:12] A couple of days ago I got an email from the SEC again. They want me to call.

And I’m like, 
“for what?” 
Like, I want this to go away.

…I’m tired of hearing about shit man. I’m tired of hearing
