Even though it's not obvious it was a government run "scam"/operation this website screams scam.
Every cryptocurrency website scream scam
Just like the "Nigerian prince scams". Yes, they are obviously a scam to most of us. But to the few ignorant/naive people who don't, they're the victims worth pursuing by the scammers. We are not the audience.
