As part of its January 14 comeback plans, MMM has urged its participants to promote the scheme, in what it termed ‘Promo Tasks’. The new tool according to the operators will ensure the scheme attracts more users.
The Scheme had earlier in the week introduced the use of bitcoin as part of its payment option.
