{{lang|en|'''Bitconnect'''}}（缩写：{{lang|en|BCC}}）是[[加密货币]]界中的{{link-en|高收益投资|High-yield investment program}}[[龐茲騙局]]之一，宣稱每日可得到1%的報酬率{{efn|每日1%代表每年365%，已遠遠超出傳統投資工具不超過每年10%的報酬率，依據金融基本定律，投資的風險與報酬成正比，投資者若要求更多的報酬，就需要承擔更大的風險}}<ref name="Wieczner">{{cite news|last1=Wieczner|first1=Jen|title=Bitcoin Crashes to Below $10,000 as Cryptocurrency Scams Scare Investors|url=http://fortune.com/2018/01/17/bitcoin-bitconnect-price-scam/|accessdate=February 10, 2018|publisher=Fortune|date=January 17, 2018|deadurl=no|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20180127005114/http://fortune.com/2018/01/17/bitcoin-bitconnect-price-scam/|archivedate=2018-01-27|df=}}</ref>。2018年1月16日，Bitconnect平台關閉，其货币价值暴跌，並於2018年8月10日後，終止任何交易。

在经历市值跳水时，Bitconnect声称将以代币方式偿还所有剩余贷款，汇率为每BCC 363.62美元。然而与此同时货币市值已跌破10美元，使得这笔支付对投资人追回钱款几乎没有帮助。
