Summary

Winvest (operating at winvest.com, presented by an entity calling itself "Wealth Invest Corp") was a crypto investment platform that promised a fixed 3% daily return (180% over 60 days) with a $10 minimum deposit and multi-tier referral commissions, backed by claims of proprietary AI/quantitative trading. The platform carried a low WikiFX risk score and no identifiable financial regulatory license, and specialist Ponzi-watchdog site BehindMLM reported that withdrawals were disabled and the operating domains went offline in October 2026, consistent with an exit scam. A separately named "Winvest" tied to a Darwin Sarte was the subject of a 2023 Philippine SEC Ponzi advisory describing different investment terms, and other similarly named entities ("Winvest International S.C.S.", "Wealth Invest 24") have drawn separate regulator warnings; it is unconfirmed whether any of these are the same operator.
