Removed access ! No Refunds, Poor Support, Underperforming Bot, and Hidden Risks After High Initial Paymentribed to Minotaur Trading…
As of 10/17/25 I no longer have access to the system, the owner messaged me via telegram offering a refund in exchange for taking my review down. I did not, and he removed my "lifetime access." The reason why there are not more negative reviews is that they give you a refund and make you sign away your ability to speak out. All this is verified via telegram. you can message anytime for receipts

I subscribed to Minotaur Trading Systems in May 2025 after seeing their promotions, paying an upfront fee of $15,000 for their automated Bitcoin futures trading bot. There was no trial period offered, and upon reviewing the terms of service (which I had to find online separately), I noted clauses allowing the company to revoke access to the bot at any time for any reason. Additionally, no receipt was provided immediately after payment, which complicated tracking.
Post-setup, support was ZERO. The initial bot configuration is typically handled but not in this case; subsequent inquiries about functionality or issues were met with suggestions to book paid calls rather than direct assistance. I relied on a user-run Telegram group (BTC Powerlaw) for troubleshooting, as official responses were limited to paid options. There was no comprehensive documented training or user manual provided; I was expected to figure out operations independently or through trial and error.
Performance fell short of advertised claims. Promotional materials,highlighted expected returns of 1.5-3% monthly with hands-free operation, but in my experience, the base settings underperformed, leading to net losses over 4 months using the company-provided settings. The company has since adjusted its messaging on expectations, but this did not align with initial promises. In contrast, refusing to give the live back testing data. They will tell you to book a call, but will NOT provide any historical data.
Software issues were significant: The trailing take-profit function operated inconsistently, and the stop-loss feature failed entirely in multiple instances. When I reported these bugs, the response was that "fixing bugs is not a priority," leaving me to manage risks manually.
I also joined their Trading Desk for an additional $500+ monthly fee, expecting enhanced support via Slack. However, access primarily led to upsells for classes costing $500-2,000 each, with little free guidance. Strategies focused on liquidity hunting via heat maps and order books, which I found ineffective and high-risk—other users reported liquidations and losses up to $100,000 in a single month.
As a Bitcoin holder, I was particularly concerned with the setup: It required placing BTC on an overseas exchange as margin collateral, introducing counterparty risks, potential lockouts, and ongoing fees even during unprofitable periods. This contradicted my preference for secure cold storage and simple DCA strategies, leading to unnecessary stress and opportunity costs.
Despite multiple attempts to address these issues directly with the company CEO, resolutions were not forthcoming once payment was received. For traders, more affordable tools (under $100/month) with better support and documentation are available elsewhere. I recommend thorough due diligence, including independent backtesting, before committing.
Don't trust verify 1. Ask them to send you the live backtest data for all the bear markets. They will just tell you the "CTO" has it, and he will show you the data on his screen. Raw data or nothing. 2. Ask to see the telegram group. 3. Ask for a 30-day trial and see how long it takes you to make something better. 4. Multinational Authorities have been alerted and additional steps are being taken. I am not the only one, my guess is there will be MANY more.
If something is "too good to be true," it usually is. Trust your instincts.
Proceed with extreme caution.
They cant make up their mind if I made money or lost money. You have to take considerable risks to get anywhere near 5%.
If you Coinbase,Most Banks and CC companys wont allow you to send money to them. Its a major red flag. Stop and think before you go through with this.
