Summary

DavorCoin (DAV) was a cryptocurrency lending platform launched in late 2017 that operated a structure regulators characterized as a Ponzi scheme, promising investors returns of up to 48% per month through a lending program. On February 2, 2018, the Texas State Securities Board issued an Emergency Cease and Desist Order against DavorCoin for selling unregistered securities and making materially misleading statements. The platform shut down its lending program on approximately February 8, 2018, repaying investors in near-worthless DAV tokens rather than the Bitcoin they deposited.
