Starting in October 2022, Fundsz allegedly solicited participants through claims that it historically produced returns greater than 3% per week using a supposed"proprietary algorithm" as part of its"secret sauce" for crypto and precious metals trading. According to the CFTC, claims were made that a one-time payment of $2,500 to funds could be expected to grow to $1 million within four years.
