DANNY DE HEKHe calls himself a mentor, a messenger, and a motivator. But what Anthony DeLoatch is really doing is running a rotating crypto hustle disguised as self-improvement.

And after months of monitoring his YouTube Channel, Telegram Groups (Crypto Investing Alerts), shady Zoom meetings, and promotional funnels, it’s time to strip back the curtain and expose the real business model behind the motivation.

DeLoatch brands himself as a “passive income coach,” offering advice and encouragement to people hoping to escape the rat race. On the surface, that might seem harmless—even helpful. But the reality is far darker: nearly every project Anthony has promoted over the past few years has collapsed, rug-pulled, or been exposed as a Ponzi scheme. From NovaTech to Vortic United, COTPS to TLC Trading AI, this self-proclaimed crypto expert has built a career on steering everyday people into financial black holes while continuing to collect affiliate commissions.

Take, for example, his YouTube video titled “$12,000 Wiped Out Passive Income,” where he presents himself as a cautionary tale. He claims to have lost $12,000 in a platform called Feminex, a textbook rug-pull. But rather than urging viewers to exercise real caution, he quickly shifts into promo mode—pushing other platforms like Selwix Crypto, VexoTrade, Tensorium, and BitGym Finance. He refers to these unregulated schemes as “still working,” encouraging viewers to check out his links. It’s clickbait with a sinister agenda: use fake vulnerability to drive traffic into more affiliate traps.

DeLoatch’s Telegram group, “Game Plan to 100 Grand,” is another major red flag. It actively promotes or has promoted the following Ponzi-style schemes and high-risk platforms:

  • Vortic United: Promised daily returns through “AI-powered trading portfolios,” now collapsed. Affiliates encouraged others to deposit large sums for commissions.
  • Trade Like Crazy (TLC): Marketed AI trading with alleged insurance certificates, now blocked in several jurisdictions.
  • NovaTech: One of the most well-known Ponzi schemes of the last few years, offering unrealistic weekly returns. Widely exposed.
  • Eaconomy: Claimed to offer forex education and automated trading—behind the scenes it was a recruitment-heavy MLM model.
  • D.A.I.S.Y.: Marketed as an equity crowdfunding smart contract with AI trading—operated as a deceptive gifting scheme.
  • FundsZ: Another token-based income program with no external revenue, unsustainable payouts, and affiliate-focused bonuses.
  • OakSmart: Presented as a forex-based passive income source. Many red flags, zero third-party validation.
  • Trongy: Claimed 3% daily returns through Tron blockchain staking. Now non-operational.
  • AM Sys (formerly Crypto Program): A repackaged version of a previous scam with rebranding to keep it alive.
  • MoveQuest: Masquerades as a fitness incentive program, but uses MLM-style commissions to drive recruitment.
  • Agros: Supposedly ties crypto earnings to agricultural development. No proof of business operations.
  • Cryptex: Anonymous team, vague ROI claims, and referral-heavy compensation.
  • 101 Money Maker: Details vague, but marketed as a passive platform—another risky bet.
  • Global Cooperative Banking: Sounds legitimate, but no licenses or verification. Suspected fraud.
  • BitGym Finance: A Telegram bot promising 1–3% daily returns. No audit trail, no legal disclosures.
  • Tensorium: Promised AI-based returns, with technical excuses for login issues and no verification of activity.

Each of these schemes follows a similar pattern: outrageous ROI claims, anonymous teams, little to no product or service, and referral-based commissions. That’s a classic Ponzi formula.

Even his YouTube channel description is a carefully coded funnel. He claims to explore the “latest and greatest crypto platforms and opportunities,” but this so-called education is really just affiliate marketing for unlicensed financial products. His links, videos, and livestreams feature one recurring pattern: hype up a new scheme, document early payouts, and when it crashes—blame the industry and pivot to the next one.

Across nearly 500 videos, he has promoted Hyperverse, NovaTechFx, Crypto 300 Club, Intelligence Prime Capital (IPC), COTPS, Vortic United, OakSmart, Trongy, Go E1U Life / E1ULife, TLC Trading AI, Ventrobi, Veneto Financial, Billted Inv, and Nordic Arbex.

All of these schemes used misleading language around passive income, AI bots, staking platforms, or forex trading, yet none have been verified or proven sustainable.

Anthony also uses cloaked domains like https://www.gameplanto100grand.com/zoom to host Zoom meetings without risking takedowns. His Linktree is littered with dead promotional pages, and his website, anthonydeloatch.com, promotes generic motivational fluff, overhyped crypto income strategies, and overpriced coaching funnels. These include unverified success claims, vague digital courses, and lead capture forms designed to recruit new victims into his affiliate ecosystem. His Telegram groups funnel users into risk after risk, often with exaggerated testimonials and misleading success stories.

We reached out to Anthony DeLoatch via email and gave him the opportunity to respond to these findings. He chose not to reply.

That silence speaks volumes.

Anthony DeLoatch is not a mentor. He is not a messenger. He is certainly not a motivator. He is a serial promoter of Ponzi schemes, leveraging social proof and fake transparency to recruit new victims into whatever platform is still paying him affiliate income.

If you see his content, be cautious. If you’ve already lost money through one of his promotions, you’re not alone. The more we document and speak out, the harder it becomes for this kind of predatory marketing to flourish.

This is not empowerment. This is exploitation.

And Anthony DeLoatch has made it his brand.
