Subject: What is hype? What does Hype mean? Posirit - let's immediately clarify that the word was born from the name of the Siri application.

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. It’s probably not worth trying to understand all the words that the next generation uses when communicating, but some of them become so popular that they go beyond the environment where they were born. A little earlier, we already discussed similar slang words in publications on the topic, and much more.

Today I want to talk about another very commonly used word - hype. What is it, what does it mean, in what cases it is used and what variations of its meaning exist (I must say, very different - from "hype" to a financial pyramid).

This word itself has already become so firmly established in youth slang and not only in it that a bunch of words derived from it have appeared (hype, hype, hype, etc.), which we will also talk about. But first things first.

Hype (hype) is a word from youth slang

As I mentioned above, the word "hype" has two different meanings and they are not strongly related to each other. The thing is that two different English words with different spellings in Russian are most often pronounced the same way.

HYIP- this is not even a word, but an abbreviation for High Yield Investment Program - a highly profitable and allegedly high-risk investment project.
Hype- hype, excitement, loud advertising, including deception, excitement (emotional), etc. Oh, how great and powerful the Russian language is, that for one English word it contains dozens of different analogues! Yes, and it is also important that the hype is bred around something or someone that is fashionable at the moment.

Despite the fact that I personally began to associate HYIP with HYIP (financial pyramid schemes) much earlier, it is the second option that is now the most popular.

Well, who cares to know about high-risk ways to make money? Units. But everyone could hear this word from famous bloggers or even read it in a note on a news site, and he has a natural question - “what is it?” Therefore, let's start with the meaning of the word "hype", which is related to, and for those who are interested in HYIP - a little lower I will devote a whole chapter.

Hype- the closest word to this in Russian (in my opinion) is hubbub(raise a noise or shout, yell), but it in itself, probably, is not understandable to everyone, so I gave explanations in brackets. The expression "inflate the hype" is very close in meaning to "raise the hubbub." It means here information noise most often in a positive direction (admiration sometimes reaching hysterics).

The word hype is most often used in relation to some media events covered in the media or the Internet (usually used in relation to something or someone fashionable At the moment). Does it mean hype or hype, which is inflated (raised) around some event or person.

Tantrums often arise unjustifiably (from scratch - around an unremarkable object) and it is this situation that is intended to characterize the expression - "inexplicable but hype".

Remember what kind of hype (hustle, informational noise, excitement) was once raised around the game Pokemon Go (at that time, a fashionable hobby from small to large). You can also cite as an example tantrums about some newfangled gadget (type), application, game, or some popular person. Yes, and any other fashion trends can turn into hype (for example, the Internet meme Zhdun).

What does hype and hype mean in simple words

hype- PR, actively advertise, promote, raise the popularity of something or someone, promote, inflate, raise a fuss around something (conduct viral marketing). hype- it means to become famous in something and somewhere (to make a splash).

Sometimes this word is also used as a synonym for "hang out", have fun, rock out (light up), be in trend (follow current), ride on a fashionable wave. It already turns out that we hype ourselves in this way, i.e. make it fashionable (cool), make people talk about themselves, admire them, like them, etc. In this case, we apply the term, which is discussed in a separate note, given by reference.

The video of a popular video blogger called “Hypanem a little bit” gained 13 million views in three months (it turns out not badly so annealed):

Hype- this word just develops the second hypostasis of the verb "hype" (hype) and means fashionable, "located in the subject" (if applied to a person, not to a thing), popular, adored.

For example, the common expression "hype shit" means fashionable (cool) things (clothes) that should be in the wardrobe of any hype (following current youth fashion) teenager. For example, Gosha Rubchinsky was once a hype, but now other brands and styles that have ascended the Olympus of youth fashion have already been noted with this word.

HYIP is a financial project doomed to failure

So we got to the second meaning of the word HYIP, based on the abbreviation HYIP. It stands for High Yield Investment Program, which means highly profitable investment project.

Let's just say that no investments are made (in any case, super-high income has nothing to do with these investments). Although high incomes themselves are possible and a small part of the project participants manage to get them, but only by robbing the rest of the participants, who in the end are left with a nose.

Can you imagine an investment area where you could pay money borrowers (project participants) from 1%(and this is already about three, four thousand percent per annum) up to 50% of income daily depending on the type and life span of the HYIP. Is it possible to invest only in bottled water, but this is already beyond good and evil 🙂

Almost all HYIP projects are based on the so-called Ponzi scheme. This genius in 1920 organized the world's first pyramid scheme, which successfully collapsed in the same year, and its author went to jail. The essence of the Ponzi scheme is quite simple.

A company (project) is opened that accepts money from investors at a very high percentage. The main thing in such a scheme create a stir - raise the hype(here the first meaning of this word is meant) and get a vote of confidence by paying interest to the first investors from the money received from those who invested in the pyramid later.

HYIP project is closed, when the inflow of money from new investors ceases to cover the cost of paying interest to those who invested in the pyramid earlier. Although, at the request of the organizer, the scheme can be closed earlier in order to hit the jackpot and hide in the bushes in time. Therefore, the average life of a HYIP mainly depends on the amount of income that the project promises to its investors. The more income, the sooner the collapse will come.

Examples of HYIP projects - who and how makes money on it

There are three types of HYIP projects according to their life span:

Fast - crazy incomes are offered (up to 50% daily with daily payments), but this miracle can die very quickly. The probability of burning out is higher than in roulette, but the prospect of hitting a huge jackpot throws many into this bottomless pool of deception.
Medium duration - incomes in such a hype are more moderate (up to 3% daily), but such a project can also live much longer (six months, less often a year). Investments here are less risky, but also less profitable. Although you can easily lose everything, hitting the moment the bubble collapses.
Long-playing - in order to last a long time, such a HYIP project should offer lower interest rates and increase the payment period from daily to weekly. In this case, according to the law of the pyramid, it can exist for much longer (for years), if external forces do not intervene.

With the development of the Internet, HYIP projects are experiencing a second youth. In the offline world, few people will now lead, because everyone is still fresh in the memory of the scammers from MMM, Khoper-Invest, Chara and other HYIPs of the 90s of the last century (in Russia). But on the Internet, HYIPs successfully thrive masquerading as cryptocurrencies (), under various financial games, under PAMMs or under very original schemes.

For example, a few years ago in Russia they implemented a very original HYIP for iPhone delivery from abroad. They offered to get this hype gadget at a price significantly lower than the market price. Those who did not believe were dissuaded by the happy owners of the latest devices (), bought for ridiculous money.

Naturally, the money of those who ordered the iPhone later covered the difference in price. The scheme lasted until the release of the next version of the iPhone, and when a cloud of money was collected for their purchase (some ordered dozens in order to make money on resale), everything suddenly ended. The HYIP closed (bursted), taking with it the money of thousands of the "smartest" inhabitants of Runet.

As you understand, do not be in HYIP projects opportunities to earn (a lot and immediately), there would not have been so many people who wanted to participate in them. There are people who, knowing in advance about the nature of hype (essentially), try to profit from them by investing in the early stages in order to jump out in time and take the money (throwing the rest of the losers together with the organizers).

For such “players”, there are even special online services where the status of the most popular hype projects at the moment is monitored so that they can jump off the train flying into the abyss in time. Another question is that no one guarantees the real usefulness of such services, but they exist and network "gentlemen" of luck use them.

If you are still interested in the topic of high-risk (but also high-yielding) investments, then look towards the blog www.profvest.com - it is quite clearly stated what beginners need to know about this kind of investment projects and the risks associated with them. IMHO.

Withdrawing money from HYIP usually carries out through systems similar to, and, of course, and others like it (fortunately now). The choice is explained by the possibility of anonymous work with these systems, and also by the fact that others simply try not to deal with hype. What do you want.

How not to get into HYIP

You can, of course, generally refuse any kind of investment in any online and offline companies. Then, for sure, the hype does not threaten us, although the example given with iPhones at a bargain price does not in any way attract an investment project - ordinary everyday life. Therefore, there can be no guarantees with this approach.

However, HYIP projects have a number of distinctive features that can give them away as a scam. Let me just list them:

Well, to top it off, I want to bring a video where they compare signs of a real investment project and hype masquerading as him:

Good luck to you! See you soon on the blog pages site

How to distinguish a real company from a hype?

Sometimes it is very difficult to distinguish a pyramid from a non-pyramid. And for this, one experience in investing may not be enough. Often you have to do a real audit of the company to get to the bottom of the truth.

The most important difference is that the pyramid is more interested in attracting investments than in carrying out the main activity. Understanding this is not always easy. For example, you can read my review of one of the pyramids that posed as a microfinance organization, had all the necessary licenses and registrations, and recently collapsed:. In order to get to the bottom of the truth, a whole investigation had to be carried out.

Some HYIPs are mistaken for real companies even by experienced investors. For example, the share exchange ShareInStock is presented by almost all reputable sources among investors as a real company. But, read this exchange and write in the comments, after reading, do you still think that this is not a hype?

But not all pyramids are organized on purpose. Some people do it by accident. I came across a case where a car dealer who brought cars to the city on a prepaid basis, for some reason, spent the money of customers not on buying cars. In order to get out of the situation, he had to bring cars to "old" customers at the expense of the "new" ones. So a pyramid was formed, for which the founder was later tried.

But such cases are rather exceptions to the rule. Most HYIPs can be easily identified with the naked eye. Among the distinguishing features are:

High yield.
The minimum risk promised by the company.
Availability of an affiliate program.
No contract.
The absence of a physical representation of the company.
The ability to replenish the balance using anonymous payment systems.

But, the presence of certain features does not make the company a pyramid, just as the absence of all these features does not guarantee that it is a real company. But in most cases, using this checklist, you will be able to identify the HYIP.

Hype types.

Primarily HYIP-projects are divided into low-income, medium-income and high-income. In this type of investment, the principle works perfectly: the lower the return, the lower the risks and the longer the life of the project. Therefore, the division by profitability is often replaced by the division by life.

That is, low-income projects are called long-term, medium-income - medium-term, high-income - short-term.

Low income hypes.

Such HYIPs most often offer their investors the lowest interest rates. There is no clear division between what percentages a project can be considered low-income, and what percentage can be considered medium-income. All this is conditional. I classify a hype as this type if it promises a return of less than 15% per month.

Such projects live the longest, many for more than one year. But you need to understand that low profitability is not a guarantee of long life. They can also mate within a few months of being created.

Mid-income HYIPs .

Such projects offer investors a yield of 15% to 60%. Most of the most popular projects are included in this group. These HYIPs offer pretty high returns to attract investors and last long enough to gain popularity.

Highly profitable HYIPs or fasts.

Such projects offer a yield of 60% per month and have the shortest lifespan. Many of them exist for only a few days and offer to double the deposit in a couple of days. Investing in such HYIPs is more like gambling: you will have time to withdraw money or not.

The next division depends on the legend and interface. There are HYIPs with a legend, without a legend, but there are economic games with money withdrawal:

HYIPs with a legend. The founders come up with a legend for their project, passing it off as a real company. According to statistics, from 25% to 50% are sure that they are investing in a real company, not a pyramid scheme.
No legend. The founders of such projects openly say that their project is a pyramid scheme.
Economic games. Now economic games have become popular in which there are no losers, and to start the game you need to make a deposit. But if there are no losers, then where does the money for payouts come from? In fact, this is a common hype with a game interface.

And the last division depends on the organization of the pyramid: centralized or decentralized.

Centralized. All money is kept by the founder of the project. He can take them off at any time and run abroad. But there is a plus - the keepers will not steal money.
decentralized. All money is in the accounts of the custodians. They themselves accept contributions and make payments to investors, transferring a small percentage to the founder.

How and by whom are HYIPs created?

In order to create a HYIP, you do not need a team or a large start-up capital. There are a large number of inexpensive scripts that will allow you to make a project with minimal investment.

Such a hype can be done even alone. The main problem is to attract investors. But this problem is solved by the affiliate program.

After the creation of the project, posts are ordered or created independently on the most popular resources dedicated to investing: forums, blogs, mailing lists, etc. The first investors begin to attract new participants, hoping to earn on referral rewards.

Some projects are promoted in this way, while others are closed without even recouping the initial investment.

You can take a look at the Twitter feed of one of the monitors: Twitter.com/hyipspace to see how many HYIPs open and close daily.

Why is legend bad?

I am often asked how I feel about HYIP projects? I have a normal attitude towards the very method of investing in pyramid schemes (not positively and not negatively), but I am extremely negative about the fact that the founders are trying to convince potential investors of the legality of their company with the help of a legend. And below I will tell you why.

As I said, between 25% and 50% of investors think they are investing in a real company. And this prevents them from assessing the risks and correctly determining the amount of investment.

For example, if I know that I am investing in a pyramid that can collapse at any moment, then I will invest a comfortable amount for myself, use the principle of risk diversification and, in the case of a scam, I will survive this loss very easily.

If I am sure that I am investing in a real company that even insures my deposit, then I am not able to soberly assess the risks. In pursuit of easy money, I borrow money or take out a loan. Which in the case of a scam leads to dire consequences. Remember that after the collapse of MMM, many people committed suicide.

Therefore, on the pages of this blog, I am trying to convey the truth about projects to readers so that they can soberly assess the risks, and only after that make a decision.

Approaches to investment. Is it possible to make money on HYIPs?

Diversification.

If you decide to invest your money in HYIP projects, then you need to understand what risk diversification is. After all, the application of this principle distinguishes a beginner from an advanced investor.

Most likely, a beginner will invest all the money in one project. But such a strategy will depend entirely on luck. Even the most detailed analysis of the HYIP will not give you a guarantee that the project will not collapse a week after your contribution.

But in order to get a decent profit, whatever one may say, you need to invest a large amount. Therefore, in order to minimize risks, investors apply the principle of diversification, that is, they break the amount into parts and invest in several projects at once. Some of them will scam, and some will pay regularly for years. But in the end, with the right selection of HYIPs, you will remain in a good plus.

Strategies for maximizing profits.

The profitability of a project investment strategy also depends on the risk. The more risky the strategy, the more profit it can bring you. You can reinvest all or part of the profit back into HYIPs. And you can fully withdraw money after each payment.

The best projects. How to choose?

Of course, how seriously you approach the analysis of HYIPs in which you invest money depends on how much income you will receive in the end. But, as I said, several projects are opened daily. Therefore, choosing the best 10-20 from such an abundance is not an easy task.

I have written a 9-step step-by-step plan to help you select reliable projects: « »

But, of course, these 9 points do not guarantee a long life for the project. Because the hype may start having internal problems or the owner decides to take the money for himself and spend the next few years in the Caribbean.

There is also such a subtle point as the rapid burnout of the project's potential. If a HYIP that is not ready in marketing and technical terms for constant rapid growth gets a sharp popularity, then, most often, it cannot support this growth in popularity and it simply does not have enough money to pay out such a large number of contributors.

On the other hand, if the popularity is growing very slowly, then the project can also quickly vanish.

Therefore, those HYIPs that have a relatively high potential and popularity are best, but it is important that it grows smoothly and without sharp jumps. Only in this way will there be maximum chances for a long life of the project.

Where to look for HYIPs?

It is unlikely that you will be able to find good projects by monitoring HYIPs or forums. The best solution would be to follow the recommendations of authoritative opinion leaders. Most often, these are people who maintain blogs, video channels, social media posts or mailing lists, invest in HYIPs, report on their profits from investing and have a large audience.

After you have chosen a promising project, be sure to check it with the help of monitoring and read its discussion on the forums.

In order to find out if the project is paying at the moment, you can use one of the monitors, for example, Allhyipmon.ru.

After you enter the site address in the search bar, you will see up-to-date information.

Checking HYIP using monitoring.

Risks.

To be honest, a minority earns on HYIPs at the expense of the majority. This means that there is a redistribution of funds from beginners and unsuccessfully invested to professionals and lucky ones.

Not everyone can earn money by investing (without attracting referrals). Even experienced investors are always in the black just because they close their holes with referral rewards.

Therefore, in order to make money on investing in HYIPs, you will need to be smarter than 80% of investors. To do this, follow these guidelines:

Use the principle of risk diversification.
Be very careful when choosing projects in your portfolio.
Use the least risky investment strategies.
Don't invest an amount you can't afford to lose.

But you can earn on HYIPs not only by investing. You can also use such a win-win option for earning money as attracting referrals. In some projects, you can even work as a custodian, receiving an additional percentage from your entire cell.

Conclusion.

I have always said that hype is neither good nor bad. It's just a tool. Once in the hands of a professional, it brings high and stable profits. Therefore, either become a professional, or pass by this way of investing.

If you say “hype” and not “make a fuss”, chill instead of rest, aggro instead of angry, despise haters instead of enemies, you are definitely over thirty.

Although today, youth slang, most of which came from English words, is expressed not only by teenagers, show business stars and Instagram bloggers, but also by politicians like Vladislav Surkov.

We are conducting an educational program on the most fashionable words of this year - we understand what “hype” is and 15+ more expressions in youth slang.

What is "hype" in youth slang?

This popular word translated from English literally means "overexcited" or "very intrusive advertising."

In the form of the verb hupe- "inflate", "unwind".

In simple terms, this is a hype or excitement around a person, event or phenomenon that causes mass discussion or heated discussion.

As a result, the semantic content is reduced, the external form of the message comes to the fore.

Hype is typical for a consumer society, whose taste preferences are formed due to the rapid flow of information.

In the capitalist countries in the years after World War II, this type of advertising was the main one and turned into a separate industry.

He came to us in 2017: the story of Diana Shurygina was called a hype.

Most modern slang words came to us from the English language.

A little later, in almost every video, TV presenter Sergey Druzhko began to repeat the word on the youtube channel.

His account very quickly gathered millions of subscribers, and with Sergey's light hand, the expression "Hypanem a little" speaking Russian "Let's PR on something or at the expense of someone".

Although “promoting” is also not very Russian- the verb comes from the English phrase PR or public relations (public relations, public relations).

Today, "hype" is more often used in relation to some persons actively discussed in the media.

The verb “hype” was formed from it, that is, create a hype and aggressively promote.

For example, quite recently, Ksenia Sobchak raised an active hype, nominating her candidacy for the presidency of Russia.

The hype around Olga Buzova or Anastasia Volochkova either rises or subsides, but the excitement around catching Pokemon and hunting for the latest spinner models went to the graveyard of history rather quickly.

Hype came to our language from the Internet

Tip: "raise the hype" - launch a duck in the media and quickly unleash the hype. This technique is often used by black PR people.

What is hype in youth jargon- alternate meanings

Since the word actively made its way into, over time, its meaning in youth slang began to acquire new meanings.

"Hype", in addition to the hype around someone or something,- it is also a noisy party, a big fun party.

"Hype" -, - applicable to a thing; on topic- to a person.

For example, hype music- scandalous, popular, getting into the TOP.

Remember at least the video of the group "Mushrooms" for the song "Ice Melts". The clip was watched by 181 million people, and every first (okay, second) said that it sucks.

In addition, many words in English are pronounced the same but are spelled differently.

Hype is also a noisy party

In rare cases, "HYIP" means "High yield investment programs" (the abbreviation HYIP is read as "HYIP") and from the lips of an economist means literally "pyramid", that is, a risky way to get rich by investing all the money in a dubious enterprise.

Remember the story about MMM? So this is the biggest hype project of the nineties.

15+ buzzwords of 2018

And immediately the bad news: if you still say " Internet cafe", « ICQ" (ICQ application), " chika" (young woman), " CD" (CD) and " cool"(from English cool- cool), then you are stuck somewhere at the beginning of the 2000s.

All these expressions are obsolete for obvious reasons. The words 2018 reflect our realities of life, namely the connection with the computer and almost manic.

But psychologists believe that this is better than prison slang, the dominance of which could be observed a couple of decades ago.

Modern slang clearly demonstrates our dependence on the Internet.

Here's what we say:

Hater - foe, enemy

From English. to hate - to hate. Haters actively manifest themselves on the Internet, write malicious comments under photos of stars on Instagram, burst into bitter messages with or without reason.

Among the 12 million subscribers of the same Buzova, a good half are haters.

chill -rest, do nothing

From English. to chill- cool. In youth slang, the word means to relax, to spend time without benefit and semantic load.

Giza - has a meaning similar to the word "vital"

However, unlike the parent, giza emphasizes the dramatic nature of the moment.

Shazam - recognize the song

The word comes from the Shazam app, designed to identify the artist of the music currently playing.

Horror - a cross between "horror" and "tin"

If you need to exaggerate, "horror"- exactly what is needed.

The expression "shazam" comes from the name of the mobile application

Posirit - immediately clarify that the word was born from the name of the application Siri

Siri is a personal assistant and question-and-answer system whose software client is included with Apple's iOS, watchOS, macOS, and tvOS.

Example:
- I have been wanting to make delicious homemade pizza for a long time, but the dough always fails.
- It is necessary to sit (equally search the Internet, google) decent recipes.

Crowdfunding - raising money through the Internet

From English. crowd - crowd and funding - financing.

With the help of crowdfunding, funds are collected to launch a public project, provide material support to victims of disasters, those in need of expensive medical care, homeless animals, etc.

Bingewatching - watching TV series avidly

Appeared from English. binge- hard drinking, watching - viewing. This is when I watched all the seasons of Game of Thrones over the course of one weekend.

Bingewatching: hang out in front of the TV on the weekend

Ababl - used as a disparaging characteristic of a man

Abubl was equally pissed off, became like a woman.

For example:
"Our Oleg abubl - his mood is constantly changing, he is offended by everything and hysterical over trifles.

The word is quite offensive, so it's better not to introduce it into the lexicon without a good reason.

Kirpidon - was born, of course, from a brick

Means a rude unreasonable phrase/action or outdated gadget (“My nokia brick is still working fine”).

Oleg - remember the hero of rhymes-pies, always getting into stupid situations?

Today "to be Oleg", may the bearers of this beautiful name forgive us,- means to get into awkward uncomfortable situations and make others laugh with this:

The worst thing is when work
Oleg will wrap himself in the night.
Gently caresses the head
And whispers: "Think of me!"

Food or gourmets in a new way

Foodies are gourmets, the definition of which comes from the English. words food - food

It is they who, before having lunch, post photos of the soup on Instagram with the tag #notfotkalneate and the like.

Use - use

The verb was born from English to use- use. A few years ago, we sometimes used it in relation to various mobile devices.

Today, the word has become firmly established in everyday life and has become widely used in all spheres of life.

For example:
Let me use my camera for the evening.

Toxic - in the classic version poisoned, poisonous

In slang, the definition is used in relation to almost all negative phenomena in life or people and means something unhealthy that has a bad influence.

A toxic (unhealthy) atmosphere in the team, a toxic (bad, negatively inclined) person, a toxic (constantly pressing) boss, etc.

The word "toxic" sounds different.

Harassment is a complete analogue of English. harassment words

Used as a definition of sexual harassment at work.

The word burst into our lexicon after the scandal with sexual accusations against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

Example:
In the life of every person, there have probably been precedents of harassment (sexual harassment in the workplace).

Zashkvar - he's a shame in decent Russian

Perhaps this is one of the few words in the vocabulary of modern youth that came from prison jargon.

Zashkvar - a thing that everyone is tired of has become unpopular or was originally so.

Well, where without bitcoin

Bitcoin from English. bit - bit and coin - coin

No other electronic payment system is comparable in popularity to .

Can you imagine how many parents in the past few years have heard the phrase from their children: “I I will mine crypto and fell into a stupor?

Mining - mine. Crypt- a cryptocurrency in which bitcoin is the payment unit.

They say that you can make good money on electronic money if you understand how the system works.

Do you use such words in your speech or try, tell us in the comments.

What is hype in youth slang and how it all began, see the video of Sergey Druzhko:

In youth slang, the word "hype" is often found. In this post, we will tell you in detail about the meaning of the term and the reasons for its popularity among teenagers and vloggers.

Meaning of the word

Hype means trendy, in the subject, fumbles what is happening in the fashion world.
Hype is what is fashionable now.
Hypeem means we hang out, have fun, light up.

Hype is hype, gossip or even hysteria around a person or event. Most often in teenage slang, this word is used with this meaning.

For example:

"Very soon the hype around the game "Pokemon Go" will die down!"

“There is such a terrible hype around Diana Shurygina that there are simply no words!”

What does it mean to hype and hype

The verb "hype" is synonymous with the words "PR" on something, or just be popular and collect fame.

This word is often used in their tracks and communication by rap artists. For example, the rapper Yanix has one of the tracks called “Hypeat”.

And the word "hype" means to have a hype (promote on something). It is very often used in areas related to PR or advertising. Based on a sudden flash of interest in some event, news, product or person.

You can’t hype on something boring or mundane. If suddenly there is a hype, it means that millions of people are already interested in some event!

Second meaning (less used)

But sometimes "HYIP" means "High yield investment programs" (abbreviation for HYIP). The term is used among financial speculators and is applied to investment decisions that promise huge returns but will soon collapse.

If you are a novice Internet investor or just stumbled upon an advertisement for a company that accepts deposits at a fairly attractive percentage, then you probably have a lot of questions on your tongue about what is hype. Let's start learning the basics of this undeniably promising, but at the same time difficult type of earnings.

Introduction to HYIPs

On many thematic sites of the Internet, there are often disputes among newcomers to this income niche about the legality of miracle companies that enrich people who have become their investors. The subject of receiving investments can be different: it offers investments in forex, cryptocurrencies, oil, gold, diamonds, and in especially difficult cases, even in drugs and sex - the list is endless. At the same time, in order to become an investor in a legal company from rainy London, only $10-20 is often enough. Of course, you should not relax - with a probability of 99%, you have a classic HYIP project in front of you.

In most cases, the first acquaintance with HYIPs is a rather expensive experience. Therefore, we recommend that you first thoroughly study what hype is and only then move on to the practical part. And remember, losses in HYIP investments cannot be avoided, but they can be minimized with a competent approach and cold calculation. Only by coping with your greed and starting to correctly analyze the information received, you will feel the thickening of your wallet and reach the desired level of earnings on the Internet.

Hype - what is it?

HYIP is an abbreviation for High Yield Investment Program, which translates as "highly profitable investment program." As we wrote above, in most cases they are veiled financial pyramids, or Ponzi schemes. In short, the profit to investors comes from newly attracted participants in the pyramid.

Almost all HYIP projects on the Internet (and not only) work according to this scheme. Therefore, before investing in any investment company, weigh the risks and prospects and never invest the money, the loss of which will become critical for you.

HYIPs, in turn, are divided into several subgroups. Let's consider each of them:

Short term HYIPs

Such HYIPs usually work no more than 2 weeks and offer increased returns for investors (usually from 61% per month). I do not recommend beginners to invest in such projects, because the chance of losing the investment here is quite high. First, it is better to gain experience and only then start playing on highly profitable ones.

Mid-term HYIPs

Medium-term HYIPs, in turn, usually offer us from 16% to 60% per month. Such projects usually live for about 3-4 months and give a good profit to those who entered at the very beginning. But there are projects that, with a competent approach of the admin, work for about six months. When working with medium-term HYIPs, we do not recommend that beginners turn on automatic reinvestment, but withdraw the accrued profit as soon as it becomes possible. This will significantly reduce the risk of being left with nothing.

Long term HYIPs

In any case, it is long-term HYIPs that are suitable for relatively long-term investment with the compound interest option turned on. But even here you can’t relax - you need to constantly be interested in the latest news and events around the long-lived hype.

Rituals before investing in HYIP

Before entering any HYIP project, it is advisable to perform some “rituals”:

Imagine that you have already lost your investment in the project. You need to be sure that the loss will not become critical and fatal for you.
Make up an investment strategy for yourself and in no case deviate from it. During the investment period, you will constantly watch how the invested funds grow by leaps and bounds. This is where the temptation arises to change your strategy and instead of the planned exit from the project, leave the money spinning for another “couple of days” in order to get even more profit. It often ends badly.
Eliminate your greed completely when making decisions. The phrase "Don't be greedy" should be decisive when evaluating entry and exit points from a HYIP project.
Think with your head first. In case of unsuccessful investment of funds, the responsibility will fall only on your shoulders. In other words, only you will be to blame for investing in a loss. No one is forcing you to make a contribution to the HYIP, and in case of loss of money, no one will return anything to you.

Conclusion

HYIPs are fraudulent projects that can close at any time and stop paying investors. Therefore, you need to be able to go out on time and in no case be greedy. However, you can and should make money here. In this case, your income depends only on you.
Do not believe the words about the stable long-term work of the project. Force majeure circumstances are always possible, so absolutely no one can know how things will be in the project tomorrow. All promises are made in order to push you to invest in a particular project for personal gain.
Choose a source of information for yourself that will be able to honestly tell you about the prospects and, if problems are found, warn that it is time to withdraw money.
Think carefully - is it worth investing in a HYIP project at all, follow the “rituals” written above.
