Treasure NFT: Innovation or Scam? A Comprehensive Review of TNFT

0
Is Treasure NFT a groundbreaking Web3 innovation or an elaborate scam? Discover the rise, fall, and controversy behind TNFT’s AI-powered marketplace, blocked withdrawals, and rebranding in this in-depth review.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of Web3 and digital assets, Treasure NFT (TNFT) positioned itself as a revolutionary NFT marketplace combining artificial intelligence, cross-chain integration, and innovative ownership models.

Launched in 2021, the platform aimed to solve core problems in the NFT space, such as illiquidity, speculative pricing, and high entry barriers, through advanced tech and novel mechanics like fractional ownership.

Yet, for all its bold claims and futuristic features, Treasure NFT has become one of the most controversial projects in recent crypto history. Accusations of fraud, blocked withdrawals, and a complete platform shutdown have left many investors questioning whether it was ever a legitimate operation.

In this in-depth review, we’ll explore Treasure NFT’s rise and fall, its core features, TNFT latest updates, and the growing evidence that it may have been a sophisticated scam.

What Is Treasure NFT (TNFT)?

Treasure NFT was presented as a Web3-based NFT trading platform and investment system that utilized AI algorithms, gamified interfaces, and community-driven governance.

From its inception, it promised revolutionary tools for NFT staking, minting, and trading—all while offering investors daily returns ranging between 4.3% and 6.8%, and monthly returns of up to 30%.

The platform’s official domain, treasurenft.xyz, described it as the world’s first encrypted NFT marketplace offering:

1. AI-powered price adjustment for NFTs

2. Fractional NFT ownership (FNFTs)

3. Support for multiple blockchains (Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain, TRON, and later, Solana)

4. Integrated wallets like MetaMask and Coinbase Wallet

5. Multilingual user interface

6. Lifetime royalties for NFT creators

7. Referral rewards and community quests

Innovative Features That Attracted Attention

Treasure NFT packed its marketplace with seemingly advanced features that drew in artists, collectors, and investors alike. These included:

1. Fractional Ownership: Enabling users to co-own high-value NFTs, thereby lowering the barrier to entry.

2. Auction and Combo Sales: Allowing creators to bundle NFTs for flexible pricing and market reach.

3. Built-in Minting Tools: Facilitating easier NFT creation for artists.

4. Decentralized Governance: Letting token holders vote on platform decisions.

5. Cross-Chain Interoperability: Facilitating NFT trading across multiple blockchains.

6. Energy Efficiency: Positioning itself as a green alternative due to its use of low-energy blockchain solutions.

These innovations were further enhanced in 2025 with new updates such as:

1. Solana integration

2. Real-time AI trading algorithms

3. In-app currency rewards (e.g., Gems)

4. Decentralized storage using IPFS and Arweave

5. A faster, optimized mobile app and web dashboard

The Dark Side: Allegations and Red Flags

Despite its technological promise, Treasure NFT began to show troubling signs that raised red flags among users and crypto experts. The platform’s most serious issues include:

1. Unrealistic Profit Promises: Offering daily staking returns of 4.3–6.8% and 30% monthly profits defied conventional financial logic and mirrored the mechanics of high-yield Ponzi schemes.

2. Lack of Transparency: There was no verifiable whitepaper, team documentation, or technical audits to back the project’s ambitious claims. Details about the AI technology and its pricing model remained vague and unverified.

3. Referral-Based Growth: Treasure NFT relied heavily on user referrals to bring in new capital—another trait common in multi-level marketing (MLM) and Ponzi schemes.

4. Withdrawal Issues: By early 2025, users began reporting that withdrawals were blocked or delayed. Some users were forced to wait over 480 hours to retrieve funds—if they could at all. Support channels went silent, and the Treasure NFT official website was taken offline.

5. Abrupt Shutdown and Rebranding: In April 2025, the platform announced a shutdown and began redirecting users to a new project, NFT Gold, which claimed to offer transparency and better features. However, many experts believe this to be a classic “rug pull” followed by a rebrand to ensnare new victims.

User Reactions and Community Sentiment

The response from the crypto community has been overwhelmingly negative:

1. Trustpilot reviews labeled the platform a scam, with the majority awarding a 1-star rating.

2. YouTube videos and Telegram discussions chronicle user losses, blocked accounts, and warnings for new investors.

3. Reports from CryptoPotato and other watchdogs confirm that users lost access to funds without explanation.

Despite some loyal supporters who still believe in TNFT’s mission, the dominant narrative paints a grim picture of deception and financial loss.

Treasure NFTs in the Arbitrum Ecosystem: A Separate Story

Adding to the confusion is the existence of Treasure NFTs in the Arbitrum ecosystem, which is not affiliated with the now-defunct TreasureNFT platform. This separate project uses the $MAGIC token and focuses on interoperable digital assets for gaming.

These Treasure NFTs serve functional purposes in games like Bridgeworld, The Beacon, and Smolverse, and are part of a growing network of composable, lore-driven digital assets.

These are seen as legitimate and technically sound—unlike the now-defunct Treasure NFT marketplace.

Conclusion: Is Treasure NFT a Scam?

Based on user reports, technical analysis, and industry watchdog evaluations, it is safe to conclude that Treasure NFT (TNFT)—as promoted through treasurenft.xyz—is most likely a scam.

Warning Signs Recap:

1. Unsustainable ROI promises

2. No legal transparency or tech audits

3. Referral-based revenue model

4. Withdrawal and liquidity issues

5. Disappearance of the platform and its leadership

6. Rebranding to NFT Gold without addressing previous failures

While Treasure NFT once promised to redefine the NFT marketplace with AI and multi-chain tools, its downfall illustrates the dark side of unregulated crypto ventures. Investors are urged to approach similar platforms with extreme caution, verify all documentation, and remember the golden rule of crypto:

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Legal recourse and reporting to cybercrime authorities may be necessary for those who have already invested. For newcomers, always research thoroughly, start small, and use platforms with verified credentials and community trust.

Seruan Hari Bumi untuk Pelestarian: Permata Alam Tersembunyi di Indonesia

0

Earth Day atau Hari Bumi menjadi pengingat penting akan tanggung jawab kita untuk menjaga dan merawat kekayaan alam planet ini. Hari ini menjadi momen refleksi untuk mempererat hubungan dengan Bumi dan menginspirasi generasi mendatang untuk terus merawat tempat tinggal kita bersama

Sebagai negara kepulauan yang kaya akan keindahan alam, Indonesia memiliki keanekaragaman hayati luar biasa dan ekosistem yang kaya. Beberapa destinasi wisata Indonesia yang telah populer di telinga turis international, seperti Danau Toba di Sumatera Utara, Pulau Komodo di Labuan Bajo, dan Nusa Penida di Bali. Untuk itu, lebih dari sekadar mengagumi keindahan alam dari destinasi-destinasi ini, tetapi juga penting untuk melindungi dan melestarikannya.

Permata Alam Tersembunyi di Indonesia yang Layak Dilestarikan

Di luar dari destinasi populer, Indonesia menyimpan banyak permata alam tersembunyi yang masih jarang terjamah. Tempat-tempat ini menawarkan keindahan alam yang memukau sekaligus memiliki nilai konservasi yang sangat penting. Dalam momen perayaan Hari Bumi 2025, mari kita eksplorasi beberapa destinasi tersembunyi di Indonesia yang tidak hanya memanjakan mata, namun juga membutuhkan perhatian kita untuk dijaga kelestariannya. Banyak dari destinasi berikut mengedepankan konsep pariwisata berkelanjutan.

Kepulauan Wakatobi, Sulawesi Tenggara

Kepulauan yang terletak di perairan Sulawesi Tenggara ini boleh jadi adalah surganya para penyelam. Ini dilihat dari sumber daya terumbu karang dan ekosistem bawah laut Kepulauan Wakatobi yang kaya. Selain keindahan lautnya, masyarakat lokal menjaga tradisi mereka dengan hidup di rumah panggung dan melestarikan adat istiadat yang telah diwariskan dari generasi ke generasi.

Tanjung Ringgit, Lombok Tenggara

Di Lombok Tenggara, Tanjung Ringgit memikat dengan pantai-pantainya yang asri, tebing kapur yang menjulang megah, dan pasir merah muda yang terbentuk dari hasil ekosistem karang yang terjaga. Dengan hanya 10% wilayah yang dikembangkan, kawasan ini fokus pada ekowisata, sementara sisanya didedikasikan untuk pelestarian lingkungan, pertanian, dan kehutanan.

Tangkahan, Pengalaman Ekowisata

Tangkahan, sebuah destinasi ekowisata di Langkat, Sumatera Utara, yang berada di pertemuan Sungai Buluh dan Batang. Tangkahan ini dikelilingi Taman Nasional Gunung Leuser. Selain dikenal dengan populasi gajah Sumatera yang diselamatkan dari konflik manusia-satwa, tempat ini juga menyuguhkan hutan hujan lebat, air terjun, gua, pemandian air panas, serta satwa liar seperti orangutan. Gajah-gajah di sini turut berperan dalam patroli hutan sebagai bagian dari upaya konservasi.

Danau Labuan Cermin, Kalimantan Timur

Danau dengan pemandangan airnya yang begitu jernih dan memukau ini berlokasi di Kabupaten Berau, Kalimantan Timur. Danau ini terkenal akan kejernihan airnya, sehingga bisa memantulkan pemandangan di sekitarnya lewat permukaan air. Danau Labuan Cermin memiliki dua lapisan air, yaitu air tawar dan air asin, yang menciptakan pengalaman unik di lingkungan yang masih alami.

Air Terjun Sipiso Piso

Di atas Danau Toba, Sumatera Utara, Air Terjun Sipiso Piso menjulang setinggi 120 meter. Air terjun ini menjatuhkan airnya ke lembah hijau yang ada di bawahnya. Pemandangan panoramanya yang menawan, memberikan pengalaman tenang sekaligus menjadi akses menuju keajaiban alam di sekitarnya.

Mengapa Penting Melindungi Destinasi Alam?

Industri pariwisata memang memberikan kontribusi besar bagi perekonomian lokal. Misalnya, seperti di Bali, pariwisata menyumbang 61% dari pendapatan daerah. Namun, sisi gelapnya, pariwisata juga berkontribusi sebesar 8% hingga 11% pada emisi gas rumah kaca global setiap tahun.

Maka, pelestarian dari destinasi-destinasi alam ini bukan hanya untuk melindungi keindahan alam, tetapi juga mendukung kesejahteraan masyarakat lokal yang bergantung pada kelestarian dari lingkungan tempat tinggalnya.

Tips Perjalanan Ramah Bumi

1. Pilih Akomodasi Ramah Lingkungan: cari tempat menginap dan operator tur yang mengutamakan keberlanjutan.

2. Kurangi Limbah: gunakan barang-barang yang dapat digunakan ulang seperti botol minum dan tas belanja.

3. Hormati Adat dan Alam Lokal: ikuti pedoman lokal dan jangan mengganggu satwa liar atau habitat alami.

4. Dukung Komunitas Lokal: belilah produk buatan lokal dan ikuti kegiatan yang melibatkan masyarakat setempat.

5. Nikmati Perjalanan: nikmati perjalanan dengan fokus pada kualitas pengalaman, bukan kuantitas.

Pada Hari Bumi ini, mari kita ambil langkah nyata untuk melestarikan permata alam tersembunyi Indonesia. Keindahan alam ini adalah warisan yang harus kita jaga dengan penuh tanggung jawab. Dengan menerapkan praktik perjalanan berkelanjutan, mendukung komunitas lokal, dan menghormati alam, kita dapat memastikan keajaiban ini tetap lestari untuk generasi mendatang.

OHA! Studios Set to Roar with New Business Show Launch

0

STORY:

OHA Studios, a collegiate production house from the University of Santo Tomas is set to launch a business show titled “Roar to Riches,” premiering its pilot episode on April 28 through the UST Tiger TV Facebook page at 3:00 PM. Produced as part of their TV Production class, the show promises to spotlight inspiring entrepreneurial journeys and practical financial insights for the Thomasian community and beyond.

The show, inspired by Shark Tank, assists Thomasian students, specifically from the College of Commerce and Business Administration, to have a chance to pitch their businesses in front of selected judges.

Show as an avenue of success for student-business owners

Roars to Riches stands as a powerful catalyst for aspiring Thomasian entrepreneurs, providing them with a platform to transform their business ideas into actionable ventures. In high-stakes pitching rounds, students present their concepts to a panel of business experts known as The Tigers — composed of esteemed alumni, professors, and industry leaders. This setting serves as valuable exposure and gives participants the opportunity to receive strategic feedback and mentorship from professionals who have successfully navigated the business landscape themselves.

Beyond pitching, the show promotes creativity, practicality, and collaboration, equipping students with real-world insights and a supportive community that encourages entrepreneurial risk-taking and innovation.

“This show defies the stereotype that the youth cannot drive meaningful change,” shared Nadine Hernandez, Executive Producer. “We believe in the transformative power of young innovators and want to elevate their ideas — proving that, with the right support, they can achieve greater heights.”

Through Roars to Riches, it will nurture confidence, sharpen critical thinking, and foster a sense of leadership and responsibility among its participants. It reinforces the belief that the youth, when empowered, are capable of becoming trailblazers in business and society.

Combining Educational Value with Real-World Preparation

Breaking away from the mold of traditional business competitions, Roars to Riches introduces a fresh and reality-inspired format that blends learning with entertainment. The show immerses student entrepreneurs in real-world scenarios that challenge their creativity, business instinct, and decision-making under pressure.

“They will expect a new and innovative concept for a student-produced show as we venture into the realm of business,” said Justine Ariola, Executive Producer. “We have pushed the boundaries to create a reality-like television experience that captures both the creative and strategic aspects of negotiation. The show will feature aspiring student entrepreneurs and business experts, providing high-stakes moments, valuable insights, and inspiring stories.”

“The show cultivates an entrepreneurial mindset among Thomasians by providing real-world experience in business planning, pitching, and even production,” added Coleen Hufanda, Executive Producer.

Beyond the entertainment, Roars to Riches doubles as a hands-on learning experience. It is an opportunity to grow not only as future business leaders but also as creative thinkers and a crash course in entrepreneurship taught not in a classroom, but in front of the cameras.

“More than just a show, our mission is to actively contribute to the advancement of the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 9, which champions innovation and sustainable industries,” said Nadine Hernandez, Executive Producer. “Through this program, we aim to empower young entrepreneurs, inspire them to be catalysts for change, and encourage them to play a pivotal role in shaping a better, more sustainable future.”

Within the Thomasian community, Roars to Riches is helping to spark a culture of innovation. It brings together students from different backgrounds to collaborate, share ideas, and build something impactful, something that reflects not only their business skills but also their values and vision.

Running from April 28 to May 13, Roars to Riches is a three-episode showcase of the bold and boundless spirit of entrepreneurship. More than just a show, it’s a launchpad for student dreamers—those unafraid to take risks, challenge norms, and grow into visionary leaders who will shape industries and uplift communities.

XRP News Today! XRP Price Analysis: Legal Developments, ETF Momentum, and the Investor Sentiment Battle

0

XRP News Today: Get the latest on XRP price analysis, including crucial legal settlement updates in the Ripple vs. SEC case, growing momentum for a potential XRP ETF, and the ongoing battle between investor hope and expectation.

XRP (XRP-USD), one of the most watched altcoins in the crypto sphere, is once again under the spotlight. As of mid-April, XRP is trading around $2.08, experiencing moderate consolidation after recent highs of $2.14.

Despite this seemingly modest price action, the cryptocurrency finds itself at a critical junction—where legal clarity, renewed institutional interest, and macroeconomic trends all converge to shape its near- and long-term future.

A Tale of Consolidation Amid Volatility

XRP’s price action this week has been a tight dance between $2.00 and $2.24, with the latest tick resting just above $2.08. This follows a remarkable 327% annual gain, having climbed from just $0.49 five months ago.

While this trajectory marks significant progress, the crypto community remains divided—some hopeful for further upside, others frustrated by what feels like stagnation in the face of promising news.

Despite the broader market showing early signs of strength—Bitcoin hovers near $84,000 and Solana (SOL) leads altcoin gains—XRP’s story is more nuanced. Its current momentum hinges heavily on legal resolution and institutional validation.

ETF Speculation Ignites Institutional Curiosity

Perhaps the most bullish narrative right now revolves around XRP’s potential for an exchange-traded fund (ETF). Financial giant Franklin Templeton recently amended its spot XRP ETF filing, quietly signaling sustained interest.

While the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has yet to greenlight the proposal, the move drew immediate attention.

Approval of a spot XRP ETF could dramatically alter its investment profile, inviting billions in institutional capital. Following the success of Bitcoin ETFs earlier this year, which helped BTC rally to new highs, XRP is now viewed as the next contender.

Several firms—including Bitwise, Grayscale, and ProShares—have shown active interest in launching XRP-backed financial products.

Legal Progress: The Ripple vs. SEC Saga Nears a Climax

A breakthrough in the long-standing Ripple-SEC legal battle might finally be on the horizon. On April 10, both parties filed a joint motion to pause ongoing appeals in favor of a settlement discussion.

This followed the appointment of Paul Atkins, a crypto-friendly figure, as the new SEC Chair—fueling optimism that the agency’s stance toward digital assets may soften.

Further developments came on April 16, when the U.S. Court of Appeals granted a motion to hold the appeals in abeyance, suggesting that a resolution could be imminent. Ripple’s legal team indicated that the SEC had agreed to drop its appeal, while Ripple will relinquish its counter-appeal.

Additionally, the SEC plans to lift the injunction previously placed on institutional XRP sales—a move that could significantly accelerate adoption in the United States.

Legal commentators like Bill Morgan and Fred Rispoli hint that the next big announcement could be the formal modification of the judgment, including a reduction in Ripple’s fine and full clearance for XRP institutional sales.

This would not only remove a major legal overhang but potentially unlock a path toward ETF approval.

Investor Psychology: Between Hope and Unrealistic Expectations

Despite all these promising indicators, many XRP holders remain frustrated. Crypto figure Edoardo Farina, founder of Alpha Lions Academy, recently commented on this contradiction.

He acknowledged that even if XRP were to surge to $50—a level that would imply a $5 trillion market cap—some investors would still call for $100. He argues that this constant chase for higher prices often overshadows the real achievements.

According to Farina, the key issue is a lack of long-term perspective. He highlights how the coin’s current price represents a fourfold increase from late 2023. Yet, many investors choose to ignore this progress, fueling a never-ending cycle of dissatisfaction.

This sentiment was echoed by other community analysts like BarriC and Amonyx, who argue that past price targets once deemed unrealistic now appear attainable.

Technical Levels and Market Catalysts to Watch

At present, XRP is hovering just above the crucial support level of $2.08. Technical charts suggest that a push past $2.20 could open the door to further upside, while failure to hold $2.04 might drag prices back to the $2.00 zone.

Recent whale sell-offs have also influenced short-term price action. Between April 1 and 14, wallets holding 100M–1B XRP offloaded over 370 million tokens. Despite this, XRP rebounded from $1.73 to $2.14 within days, signaling accumulation by smaller investors and renewed belief in its long-term potential.

Looking ahead, analysts consider $10 as a reasonable target if major catalysts—such as a favorable legal settlement, ETF approval, and broader crypto adoption—materialize.

Under sustained bullish conditions, this level could be reached within 12–18 months. Absent such triggers, the timeline may extend into 2026 or beyond.

Macroeconomic Context: Cautious Optimism Returns

Global macro sentiment also plays a role. While the U.S. Federal Reserve’s reluctance to cut interest rates has briefly rattled markets, crypto assets like Bitcoin and XRP have shown surprising resilience.

Moreover, geopolitical tensions, including the ongoing U.S.–China tech war, are creating headwinds for risk assets. This has led to heightened volatility and cautious positioning across markets.

Still, growing global liquidity and dovish long-term expectations provide a supportive backdrop. According to trader Ted, “Eventually, this liquidity will flow into crypto”—benefiting coins like XRP that boast regulatory clarity and real-world use cases.

Conclusion: A Defining Chapter for XRP

XRP is standing at a crucial inflection point. Legal clarity, ETF optimism, macroeconomic recovery, and strategic investor sentiment are all aligning to potentially reshape its future. While short-term price movements may seem underwhelming, the foundation being laid could be transformative.

The key takeaway for investors? Patience and perspective are essential. While chasing sky-high price targets might feel exciting, recognizing the milestones already achieved—and the massive upside potential unlocked by pending developments—may offer the most rewarding mindset.

With the legal fog finally lifting and institutional doors starting to open, XRP’s next chapter could be its most defining one yet.

The Growth Network: Where Growth-Minded Filipinos Stop Playing Small—and Start Building Big

0

The Growth Network is a movement of growth-minded entrepreneurs, professionals, and creators who are committed to building a better Philippines by lifting others as they rise. Founded by innovation strategist Mack Comandante, the community fosters collaboration, early trendspotting, and real-world traction through high-level conversations and curated connections. On April 22, the network hosts the Growth Dinner Meetup at The Astbury Club in Makati, featuring Kislay Chandra, COO of Sprout Solutions, who will share powerful insights on leading hyper-growth companies.

The Growth Network

Where Growth-Minded Filipinos Stop Playing Small—and Start Building Big

The biggest gap in the Philippines isn’t skills.It’s belief.Too many people are capable of leading movements, launching businesses, and creating change—but they’re stuck waiting for permission.

That’s why we created The Growth Network.

Not as another group chat, business club, or content page—But as a movement for builders, dreamers, and doers who are ready to grow together and help others rise along the way.

What Is The Growth Network?

The Growth Network is an open but private circle of entrepreneurs, high-potential professionals, creators, and growth-minded leaders committed to co-creating impact, innovation, and personal transformation.

We don’t compete. We collaborate.We don’t follow trends. We get there first.And we don’t grow alone. We pull others up as we climb.

Inside the community, we:

Share tools, insights, and strategies that create traction and results

Spot trends before they peak, and co-create value around them

Build momentum together—whether you’re scaling a startup or leveling up your leadership

Surround each other with accountability, alignment, and abundant support

Meet the Founder: Mack Comandante

The Growth Network was founded by Mack Comandante, a globally awarded Exponential Organizations (ExO) consultant, startup builder, and leadership coach with 20+ years of experience in strategy, operations, finance, and sales.

Mack has helped thousands of professionals and founders unlock exponential breakthroughs through his work at Exoasia Innovation Hub.

His belief is simple but powerful:

“We don’t grow by standing out. We grow by lifting others.”

With The Growth Network, Mack is creating a space where growth is contagious—and where people no longer have to shrink to fit their surroundings.

A Network of Builders, Not Bystanders

What makes The Growth Network different?

It’s the people.It’s the room full of:

Founders building category-defining products

Professionals who want to create impact, not just earn titles

Coaches, creators, and operators sharing blueprints, not just stories

If you’ve ever wanted to surround yourself with people who push you forward, think bigger, and believe in building something bigger than themselves—you’ll feel at home here.

Join Us This Tuesday

April 22, 2024 | 6:30 PM onwards The Astbury Club, Makati

We’re kicking things off with a Growth Dinner Meetup—a private evening of deep conversation, aligned connections, and zero fluff.

Expect:

Real conversations with fellow builders and future collaborators

Purposeful networking, not business card collecting

Ideas you can run with the next day

Tuesday Growth Feature: Meet Kislay Chandra as he talks about How to Lead Hyper-growth Companies

We’re also proud to host Kislay Chandra, Chief Operating Officer of Sprout Solutions—the Philippines’ foremost B2B SaaS success story.

Kislay is a product and operations powerhouse with 15+ years of experience turning vision into velocity.

Under his leadership, Sprout has:

Scaled from a scrappy HR startup to a regional tech leader

Secured $10.7M Series B funding in 2023

Launched products like Instacash to support employee financial wellness

Acquired JustPayroll Philippines and GainPlus Solutions

Expanded into Thailand, pushing the frontiers of Filipino innovation in Southeast Asia

Kislay brings to The Growth Network stage a real-time masterclass in strategy, scale, and execution—plus a rare inside look at what it takes to lead hyper growth companies in emerging markets.

You’ll want a notebook for this one.

Final Word

The Philippines needs more people who don’t just talk about growth—but actually build it, share it, and multiply it.

That’s the soul of The Growth Network.

If you’re tired of being the most driven person in your circle…If you’re ready to grow alongside people who challenge and champion you…

You’re invited.

Let’s connect. Let’s co-build. Let’s grow—together.
