Thankfully, KPR only attracted a few thousand dollars in volume, unlike Cronje’s most recent experiment, Eminence — which was completely drained of $15 million while Cronje was sleeping and unaware that his followers rushed to invest in the protocol. The hacker transferred half of the funds to Cronje, who awoke to a flurry of death threats before distributing the stolen funds back to Eminence investors.

Andre's latest protocol is a work-in-progress simulated by hype to make good returns which after seeing pump eventually dumps. The project at it beta phase should have not been allowed to garner ICO funds from ignorant investors because it had not be proved. So what now? Would this case be like most other fraudulent Defi projects? I think the turn of event will tell when later publication is released to this effect.
