BitRobot provides no information about who owns or runs the company on its website.
BitRobot’s website domain (“bit-robot.io”) was privately registered on March 11th, 2020.
In an attempt to appear legitimate, Bit Robot provides a UK incorporation number on its website.
The number corresponds with Robots Solutions Limited, incorporated on July 27th.
UK incorporation is dirt cheap and effectively unregulated. It is a favored jurisdiction for scammers looking to incorporate dodgy companies.
At the time of publication Alexa ranks BitRobot’s top three sources of website traffic as Bangladesh (15%), Russia (10%) and Iran (7%).
As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.

For more details on the unilevel team structure see “referral commissions” below.
Referral Commissions
BitRobot pays referral commissions via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.
If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
BitRobot caps referral commissions at nine, based on rank:
- Rookies earn 7% on level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) and 4% on level 2
- Leaders earn 7% on level 1, 4% on level 2 and 3% on level 3

- Directors earn 7% on level 1, 4% on level 2, 3% on level 3, 2% on levels 4 and 5 and 1% on level 6
- Vice Presidents earn 7% on level 1, 4% on level 2, 3% on level 3, 2% on levels 4 and 5, 1% on level 6 and 0.5% on level 7

Conclusion
BitRobot claims to generate ROI revenue through “automated trading”.
No evidence of trading activity taking place is provided, nor is there any evidence of external revenue being used to pay returns.
Furthermore, BitRobot’s business model fails the Ponzi logic test.
Despite not existing until a few months ago, BitRobot states on their website that
over the last 4 years, we have averaged 28.7% on a monthly basis.
Four years is forty-eight months, which compounded at 28.7% each month turns any capital amount into a fortune.
So why do BitRobot’s owners need your money for?
As it stands the only verifiable source of revenue entering BitRobot is new investment.
Using new investment to pay existing affiliates advertised returns makes BitRobot a Ponzi scheme.
As with all MLM Ponzi schemes, once affiliate recruitment dries up so too will new investment.
This will starve BitRobot of ROI revenue, eventually prompting a collapse.
The math behind Ponzi schemes guarantees that when they collapse, the majority of participants lose money.
Update 11th January 2021 – As of late December 2020, BitRobot has collapsed.
