The organizers of the financial pyramid wanted to disguise it under the guise of a digital financial asset (DFA), but they were discovered in time and did not manage to cause any harm to anyone. The details were reported by Deputy Chairman of the Bank of Russia Philip Gabunia. Vedomosti writes about this.

Gabunia spoke at a forum on digital finance organised by the rating agency ACRA. She says she did not have time to make money from citizens, she did not have investors.
“One organization tried to sell its asset, which was essentially a pyramid scheme. Due to a combination of circumstances, it was stopped. But since there are such precedents, we plan to ask the platforms themselves to pay more attention to what they publish,” he said.
A DFA is a financial instrument in digital format. The issuance, accounting and circulation of assets is carried out in an information system based on a distributed registry (blockchain technology), which guarantees the immutability of the data.
At the end of July, the Voskhod venture fund completed fundraising to participate in the investment round of the food technology company Qummy and raised 83.5 million rubles. Thus, the country’s first issue of venture digital financial assets (DFA) was completed.
