Others have already stated the problems with this course and it's instructors so I'll keep it brief:
Pros:
*entry level crypto instruction
Cons:
*unprofessional, often late, had to reschedule multiple webinars and waited until the last minute to let people know, major lack of respect for their customers time
*they were very wrong about their overall market prediction and many customers got wrecked as a result
*they refused to take any responsibility for giving poor predictions on specific coins and the market in general and instead victim blamed their customers for following the advice that they paid $900 for
*most of the best and brightest group members that contributed actual value in the chat group were either removed for being honest about the course or left on their own accord
*there's been absolutely no attempt to rectify the situation
Conclusion: The instructors are unprofessional, amateur traders who's predictions of the crypto markets comes largely from what they see other actual professionals say on Twitter and in chat groups. What they are good at is marketing, fueled by appearances on a popular Podcast that happened to start gaining it's viewer base around the time that the crypto market started heating up. I personally wouldn't buy their course again if they offered it for $10.

MY GRANDMA COULD PREDICT BETTER
INTRO:
Where do I even begin, I guess by saying sorry in advance for a big word salad of figures. If you take a few minutes to read the numbers I have in this review it may save you from making the same errors as me - I hope you can learn from me.
I’m here to dive into just how insanely wrong they read the market and how they con people in, take a seat and listen because I was just like you before I bought the course, naive and stupid, so buckle up.
I was an AVID supporter & listener of both Charlie & Miguel since Q4 2021. I’m going to list their Q4 portfolio then followed by a few of the calls they’ve made in the past which they NEVER acknowledge. There is an echo chamber of WAGMI (we are going to make it), WEN LAMBO, WEN MOON, etc which is constantly spammed in their self-proclaimed ‘priceless’ telegram groups. Don’t get sucked into the FOMO and “have fun staying poor” mentality which may sway your better judgment.
Portfolio:
In Q4 they had a strongly recommended ‘balanced’ portfolio which had outlined having:
30% in ETH
20% in HEX
20% in DOT/KSM
20% in SOL/RAY/SRM
10% in LUNA/FTM/OTHER
Predictions:
Below are the predictions on the main portfolio coins of Q4:
EoY: End of Year
EoBR: End of Bull Run (Mid-Late 2022 was the predicted end)
ETH: was 2890, EoY was 11000, EoBR was 25000, and currently is 1325 which is 18.8x away from their mid-year prediction.
HEX: was 0.465, EoY was 1, EoBR was 10, and currently is 0.035 which is 285x away from their mid-year prediction.
DOT: was 30, EoY was 90, EoBR was 386, and currently is 6.96 which is 55x away from their mid-year prediction.
KSM: was 323, EoY was 959, EoBR was 7800, and currently is 45.92 which is 169x away from their mid-year prediction.
KAR: was 9.12, EoY was 48, EoBR was 135, and currently is 0.41 which is 329x away from their mid-year prediction.
SOL: was 137, EoY was 470, EoBR was 1087, and currently is 28.34 which is 38x away from their mid-year prediction.
SRM: was 7.5, EoY was 42, EoBR was 80, and currently is 0.89 which is 90x away from their mid-year prediction.
RAY: was 9.9, EoY was 55, EoBR was 245, and currently is 0.70 which is 350x away from their mid-year prediction.
LUNA: was 36.7, EoY was 151, EoBR was 416, and currently is 0 which is 100000x away from their mid-year prediction.
FTM: was 1.25, EoY was 10, EoBR was 29, and currently is 0.21 which is 138x away from their mid-year prediction.
An additional one is DeFi Kingdoms (JEWEL) which was a LARGE part of their GameFi segment in Q1 & Q2.
JEWEL: was 9, expected was 40, not sure about EoBR figure, currently is 0.21 which is 42.85x away from when it was recommended to buy & 200x off of where they predicted it to be by now.
ANYONE who invested in their picks of SRM, RAY, KAR, KSM, LUNA, DOT, AAVE, CEL, SNX, JEWEL, FNC, HEX, KAR, FTM, BOO, SPIRIT, TSHARES, TOMB is DOWN BAD. I could go on but I think I’ve made my point clear.
Little Spiel:
They have yet to acknowledge that we are in a bear market, they are avoiding the question like cowards.
As for all the times DCC has mentioned HEX in the past 6 months - when the price was at 20c he said he would back the truck up if it ever hit 11c and that it would be very unlikely for it to drop below that point. HEX hit 11c a few weeks later and his statement for the following few weeks was that if hex ever hit 8c again on a dip that he would back the truck up and make a huge purchase. Stating that there was far too much buy pressure for it to ever go below 8c. BOOM, a few weeks later HEX drops below 8c, it then hits 6c. DCC then says it will definitely not go below around 4-5c & that if it did he would back the truck up and buy a massive stack of HEX. A few weeks later it dips to 3.5c. END OF STORY.
The moral of this DCC story is that he has an infinite number of trucks which he uses to back up every time HEX dips. However the fact of the matter is I have his main HEX wallet address and he has been SELLING, he did state this on a recent stream so I can respect that, but going from shilling it when it was at 40c back in Q4 to selling it at 9c is quite the change of HEART (no pun intended).
Punctuality/Professionalism:
During the course they never started on-time. NOT ONCE. This may sound like a silly thing to point out but it wasn’t a one-off “sorry we’re running late today” vibe. There was never a single mention of being apologetic or anything. If we wanted to catch the streams live everyone in the course would be waiting at the allocated time which for me was 2am/2pm. They would instead start anywhere from 15 minutes late at the earliest, to 75 minutes late at the latest. This IS VERY INCONVINIENT. I allocated time away from other commitments to make time for the crypto course which I paid $1,000 for & I wanted a little punctuality for that price point.

No different from any crypto guru or disney starwars
Does not address any negative feedback and instead pissed on their paying customers:
-No integrity, when faced with negative feedback, they made no effort to analyze the feedback and separate legit feedback from bad feedback. Does not admit to any fault and gaslights customers instead, blaming customers for failures without doing any research on whether or not they are even partially responsible for people's failure or reviewing their products.
-Predictions have been absolutely wrong and got people who followed their so called "bulletproof portfolio" wrecked.
-Encouraged people to buy hex at 40c claiming it'll go to 70c-$1 while they sell at 50c and only admitted to doing it after getting called out.
-No self-awareness, advertises short-term gain and yet gets mad when people expected short-term gains and did not get those gains. Then claims people should be long-term minded.
-Utilize urgency and scarcity tactics in their marketing such as "Join the course or have fun staying poor" to get people to buy their course
-Make claims in their marketing material that you'll make your money back within the course, people have lost money.. They don't seem to care
-Claims their paid telegram group is "priceless" but do not even make an effort to participate or moderate the chat. Cultivate Crypto himself has express moderating the chat, that you'll be paying for, is not worth his time.

-Not worth $1000, absolute frauds that got lucky in the bull market

Absolute Garbage "Course"
Absolute garbage course, stay away!!
These guys are real con artists.
Not only will you waste $1000 signing up for their course, but they'll get you to "invest in coins" that are complete trash.
They just talk crap and make terrible predictions about the market.
Please guys, keep safe: stay away from Charlie and Miguel.

Avoid! If you want to lose money go ahead.
I was in Q2 21, Q3 21 and Q4 21 and none of their calls made their mark.
The so called "bullet proof portfolio", cel/snx/uni/dot was a load of crap, I've lost more money listening to these dweebs and now they're charging more per quarter.
They shilled CEL so much, they were looking at $100 by the end of this year and it went down to $3-4. And they're charging loads of cash for their consultations, which is practically the price of the damn course.
They shilled HEX in Q4 around 40c then they went behind our backs to dump HEX at 50c, we were pumping their bags.
The only positive is that I made money from Q3 getting into HEX at 6c.
"Have fun staying poor" - they really meant it. We are poor due to their advice.
There's more trusts in news channel like CNN than these guys.

The course is flat out a waste of time…
The course is flat out a waste of time and money. Crypto is a grind N the only way to learn is by DYOR and learning from small mistakes along the way. They claim they will help you learn the basics but their youtube vid is repackged into a course. They are correct when they say crypto market changes quickly, the problem is they are behind the ball most of the time themselves. They are not adaptive to the market but rather sells you a course as a hedge for knowing nothing. Guys/girls, you are free to waste your money if you please but don't say someone didn't warn you! By the way, I'm up 102x on 1 coin and 15x on another coin I found and learning on my own buy joint the coin community directly and asking questions over 2 months and deciding to take small bets. I took losses on the coins they recommend after I realized they were no longer the right coins to hold based on where the market was heading. Good luck to all my crypto friends. Be warned!
