In 2018, when Xiaobai Zhangyang, who had just entered the currency circle, saw the "futures master" AK on Weibo, he felt excitedly that the great opportunity in his life had arrived.
"The fee to join the group is 30,000, bring 1,000,000 to enter, the annual income starts at tens of percent, and there is no upper limit." Under such temptation, Zhang Yang paid a monthly fee of 30,000 US dollars to "bring money into the group", but found that his profit Not enough for the 30,000 knife group fee per month.
AK will suddenly call orders 24 hours a day, regardless of day or night. Zhang Yang has worked hard for a while, but it is still difficult to keep up.
What's worse, AK is not as good as he claims, but rolls over from time to time...
As a profit model, the "order-carrying" group has become a stable profit model for self-proclaimed "futures masters" from all walks of life.
However, in a group of masters that the Bond editor belongs to, he asked sharply:
"If you have a really good strategy, why do you still have time to bring orders to others?"
AK, the unrivaled "blogger with a single" in this group. He (or his gang) is well aware of the psychological activities of traders, grasping their desire to make money, or their anxious mentality of rushing to return their capital, using radical words, difficult to identify trading images, secretive teaching articles, and posting on Weibo Create an image of a trading god of war online, attracting speculators to pay huge fees to join the group.
In fact, AK is just an ordinary trader. He advocated outperforming the Bitcoin profit curve, but he never dared to show off his skills in front of the public. On the contrary, he won the last place in a certain futures competition in the past. The name of the ID is [AK is a liar]. Interestingly, such a trader who is good at marketing has been active in the circle for several years. Relying on a little bit of trading skills he has mastered, he has never failed to trick the newcomers and speculators who are constantly pouring into this circle.

The currency circle has never had too many moral constraints. In this unregulated free market, pyramid schemes and funds flourished for a while. But in addition to these notorious Bo stupid games, there is another safer way to cut leeks, that is, to charge a single group. The leader of the single-lead group charges the group members regularly, promising to give precise points, and lead the members to "get rich". These group owners with single groups successfully defrauded the ignorant little leeks with their chips by using excited words, false transactions, and skillful line-drawing techniques.

AK is the unparalleled "Blogger with Orders" in this group. He and the group with orders he represents have allowed batch after batch of new traders to go from entering the currency circle full of hope to finally going to the brink of bankruptcy, but they have nothing to do. No guilt. In view of this, this article will analyze the hypocrisy of AK from 7 angles to show newcomers.

1. Marketing genius, good at drawing lines
Who is the best digital currency blogger on Weibo? For most people in the circle, the first reaction must be AK, Weibo name [AlbertTheKing]. Here are a few pictures to experience AK's line drawing method.
In addition, in order to show his identity as a professional trader, AK will publish trading orders for stocks, gold, bulk futures, etc. from time to time, implying that "I am a professional trader and I am trustworthy".
If we say that in the currency circle where low-end scammers are flying all over the sky, the altcoin mouse warehouse and the rough single group harvest are low-income, low-intelligence, and low-discrimination groups, then the target of AK is those who think they have higher intelligence, People with higher net worth. After all, the membership fee is $30,000 a month.

2. Greedy charges, all comers are welcome
However, $30,000 is simply too expensive.
With a monthly payment of 30,000 US dollars, then AK will have to pay 360,000 US dollars a year, which is equivalent to nearly 2.5 million RMB. It is said that AK’s monthly group fee income can reach 6 million RMB, so a year is 72 million RMB. Compared with private equity funds in the market, if the fund loses money, it basically does not charge any money, but AK's fee-based method of bringing orders can still make a lot of money without any risk. Let me ask, is there a better business in the world than this? The risk is borne by the customer, and you can enjoy huge risk-free returns by doing it yourself. This is probably the unique magic weapon for generating income in the currency circle.

When the currency circle was in full swing, AK once stated that he would not accept speculators whose assets did not meet the standards to join the group, because he did not lack the source of customers at that time. Another advantage of this approach is that it can create the appearance that entering and exiting the group is a scarce resource, which also makes many people who don't know the truth flock to it even more. Only later, after the currency circle entered a bear market, when more and more people discovered that the cost-effectiveness of entering the group was extremely low, in order to ensure that their "risk-free income" remained stable, AK's screening criteria began to lower the capital threshold and began to put in more funds. Too many "poor players". Those who were still trying to enter the group during the bear market at that time were nothing more than people who had suffered huge losses and tried to follow AK to get back their capital. The result can be imagined, under the anxious state of mind, I paid a huge group fee for one month, and the time for copying orders is limited, so I will inevitably increase the leverage at every point announced by AK, and eventually lose out.
There is a saying that goes well, money earned by luck is lost by strength. It is roughly described as a group joiner.

AK is not only a blogger with bills, but also often gets involved in various topics in the currency circle when he brings bills, and he is good at "talking non-surprisingly and endlessly". Often use extensive remarks to attract everyone's attention.
Winning people's hearts is his normal state. When the outside world still doesn't know the truth about his actions, AK often interacts with various big Vs in the currency circle. When he likes him, he will take screenshots of the big Vs' compliments on his remarks . In the future, when the public opinion is at a disadvantage, AK will "draw the list" of the previous screenshots and accuse the other party of being a double-faced and hypocritical person.

What AK probably wants to express is "If you praise me today, don't scold me tomorrow".
In addition to "screenshot list", AK is also good at blocking all kinds of unfavorable remarks in his comment area. Careful observation shows that the number of AK comments in the early days was often dozens or even hundreds, but now there are very few comments, and it seems that they are all blacklisted.

5. Conceal identity and be careful
It is a terrible thing that no one knows his true identity for a person with such high activity and income of tens of millions. In fact, neither AK fans nor group friends have ever seen AK in real life. Some people even suspect that AK's QQ number and Weibo number are all black numbers bought, and the ID card bound to it is not owned by him.
Joining AK's charging group means that you have to expose all your information to AK, and you don't know who the other party is. Will you do anything with your identity information? Also sign a non-liability agreement. Such a thoughtful person covers up all the unfavorable information, and every entrant into the group is like a clean lamb, just waiting to be put into the pot.
(Another microblog @DustbluePhotography used by AK today has been found out by netizens, and the content of the microblog was quickly cleared. AK still chooses to defend that the microblog is not owned by him.)
6. Avoid the important and take the light, explain palely
Having been in the Weibo currency circle for many years, AK's actual ability has already aroused suspicion from everyone. The way to prove one's own strength is actually very simple, that is, to make a firm offer. But it's ridiculous that such a great master of billing has the kung fu to show screenshots of various operations, transaction screenshots, post profit orders, and argue with doubters, but he has no time to make firm offers. Some people in the charging group revealed that in fact, a large part of AK’s trading income comes from arbitrage, using the price difference between futures and spot for risk-free hedging. The actual difficulty of the operation of this method is actually very simple, and anyone who knows a little bit about the principle can understand the specific operation ideas. And AK is pretending to be mysterious, making a fool out of the common methods of this kind of large-capital transactions, boasting about stable profits...

▲The latest article published by AK intends to explain why funds and API transactions are not opened
It’s fine if you don’t set up a fund, and AK rejected the establishment of API automatic follow-up. The reason for the rejection was the security of the API and the concern that the software company would steal strategic secrets...
In fact, this is the biggest doubt on AK. Instead of adopting the method that can best prove one's own trading strength, but passing all the risks on to the entrants, AK's ugly food is not clean.

7. Touch porcelain and hoard coins, ask for hammer and get hammer
It's a pity that in the end he still fell on his arrogance.
AK, whose income has never outperformed Bitcoin, uttered nonsense and dismissed the coin hoarding party, even saying that the coin hoarding party is no different from pyramid schemes. In fact, AK is a coin hoarding party, trying to attract more traffic for itself through this garish way again. And every time one more person chooses to hoard coins, it means that AK loses one lamb.

AK chose the right tactics, but chose the wrong opponent.
The hoarding party is a relatively low-key group on Weibo. From time to time, it popularizes some principles of bitcoin, and has always been indifferent to the world. And as the price of bitcoin picks up, more and more people realize that this may be a bull market only for bitcoin, and the voice of the coin hoarding party gradually becomes louder. At this time, AK was like a aggressive bull that broke into the elephant's territory and was ruthlessly brought down.
The AK scandal has been re-exposed again, and this time the noise is far stronger than before. AK asks for hammer to get hammer.
The ugliness of AK is only a corner of the currency circle, and there are more scammers still active in this circle. They take advantage of the asymmetry of information and can't wait to squeeze out every restless speculator. Only when this group of people are caught out and exposed to the light, will this circle have a chance to rectify their name.
