First off, the team and I greatly appreciate the support that we have received over the past several hours, which we believe is a testament to the strong support MANTRA has among its investors and community. We have determined that the OM market movements were triggered by reckless forced closures initiated by centralized exchanges on OM account holders. The timing and depth of the crash suggest that a very sudden closure of account positions was initiated without sufficient warning or notice. That this happened during low-liquidity hours on a Sunday evening UTC (early morning Asia time) points to a degree of negligence at best, or possibly intentional market positioning taken by centralized exchanges. Centralized exchange partners play an important role in providing liquidity to projects like ours. We work closely with them, however they continue to exercise enormously high levels of discretion. When discretionary powers are exercised without due internal and external oversight, dislocations like what recently happened can and will occur, hurting both projects and investors alike. To be clear, this dislocation was not caused by the team, the MANTRA Chain Association, its core advisors, or MANTRA’s investors selling tokens. Tokens remain locked and subject to the published vesting periods. OM’s tokenomics remain intact, as shared last week in our latest token report. Our token wallet addresses are online and visible. MANTRA is a project that has survived and operated throughout multiple market cycles. When others stopped building, we kept going. This is no exception. As our recent suite of announcements indicate - from being the first DeFi protocol licensed by Dubai’s VARA, to integrations and initiatives that will broaden and strengthen our ecosystem, we’re committed to our community and we’re here for the long term. In the coming hours, we will host a community connect on X, to discuss these events further.
A ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment scam where returns are paid to earlier investors using the capital from newer investors, rather than from legitimate profits.
Named after Charles Ponzi, who ran such a scheme in the 1920s, it promises high returns with little risk but relies on a constant influx of new money to sustain itself. When new investors dry up, the scheme collapses, leaving most participants with losses.
Key signs include guaranteed returns, unregistered investments, and pressure to recruit others. Famous examples include Bernie Madoff’s $65 billion scam, exposed in 2008. If you’re connecting this to CBEX, their alleged withdrawal issues and referral bonuses have raised Ponzi-like red flags for some observers.
[LIST OF NOTABLE HISTORICAL & RECENT PONZI SCHEMES]
THE PREVAILING PONZI SCHEMES IN AFRICA (2020 TILL DATE):
In March 2025, Nigeria’s EFCC listed 58 illegal Ponzi schemes; including Agricoin, B29, Wales Kingdom Capital, Bethseida Group and Brickwall Global Investment, targeting local investors with high-return promises.
THE RESULTS: Ongoing investigations; public warnings issued; CEO goes scotfree.
★ MMM PONZI (1994): ABOUT MMM PONZI: Run by Sergei Mavrodi in Russia, scammed investors out of ~$10 billion by promising high returns on fake investments.
THE RESULT OF MMM PONZI: Collapsed in 1994; Mavrodi later started similar schemes globally.
★ CRYPTOBRIDGE EXCHANGE (CBEX) PONZI (2020 TILL DATE):
ABOUT CRYPTOBRIDGE EXCHANGE (CBEX) PONZI: While not officially classified as a Ponzi scheme, CBEX has been flagged for suspicious practices like withdrawal issues and referral bonuses, raising concerns of Ponzi-like mechanics. Claims to use AI for crypto trading profits.
THE RESULT OF CRYPTOBRIDGE EXCHANGE (CBEX) PONZI: No definitive ruling, but warnings from regulators like Hong Kong’s SFC suggest caution.
LESSON LEARNT: Whatever you invest your money or time in, always put-in the amount you can afford to lose.....

💡 Let's talk about Mantra Coin and it's overwhelming volatility saga 💡
ABOUT MANTRA: MANTRA (OM) is a cryptocurrency and Layer 1 blockchain designed for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, enabling the digitization of assets like real estate or commodities. It aims to bridge traditional finance and DeFi, offering a platform for secure, compliant, and scalable transactions. Built with Cosmos SDK, it supports interoperability and institutional-grade infrastructure. The OM token is used for governance, staking, and fees within the ecosystem. Launched in 2020, MANTRA gained traction with partnerships like a $1B tokenization deal with DAMAC Group. Despite a 640% price surge over the past year, it faced a dramatic >90% crash on April 13, 2025, dropping from ~$6 to ~$0.50 amid liquidation concerns.
MANTRA'S VOLATILITY SAGA: On April 13, 2025, MANTRA (OM), a cryptocurrency focused on real-world asset tokenization, crashed over 90% in hours, dropping from $6 to ~$0.50, erasing billions in market cap. The likely trigger was a massive sell-off, possibly from forced liquidations on an exchange, overwhelming the market. Allegations of insider dumping by the team or a group called the "Kabal team" surfaced on X, but the MANTRA team denied this, blaming "reckless external liquidation." Their Telegram group restricted access during the chaos, fueling distrust. Broader market downturns and prior concerns about MANTRA’s high market cap versus low TVL ($13M) may have amplified the collapse. The team is investigating, but details remain unclear.
Hence, investors should stay cautious and follow official updates and always remember to invest only what you can afford to lose.... 🙏
In May 22 2010, a certain man by name "Laszlo Hanyecz" paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas from Papa John’s, a deal facilitated through a forum post where another user agreed to order the pizzas in exchange for the Bitcoin. At the time, the value of 10,000 BTC was roughly $41 which equals $0.0041 [NGN 6.15 @ NGN1,500 per dollar exchange rate] per 1 BTC.
Likewise, lossing your Pi coin as a result of quick sells for instant gratification is far worse than that of Laszlo Hanyecz. Though the economy might be scorching and different problems (family, academic, health, business, etc) might be on the increase that demands urgent attention. Considering the price-transition of Bitcoin (BTC) from the onset $0 to $ 84,519 as at Monday 24, March 2025. Hence, the positive price movement of Bitcoin (BTC) over a certain period of time places more emphasis on the dire need of HOLDING a valuable coin or token over a fixed period of time. However, every action has his own consequences, if a coin/token holder keeps a coin/token that possess little or no usecase or real life relevance, there's a high probability of losing your investment capital when the coin/token is massively dumped/sold by the project team, investors and community at large. In conclusion, holding a valuable coin that posses a real life usecase and a future plan like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance, Pi coin, etc is likely more profitable than selling-off in a rush.
Cryptocurrency is uncertain and unpredictable. It is as volatile as an unstable human emotions.....
Trade with caution!
