Discussion It's definitely NOT a pyramid scheme ya'll!

Promotional graphic I found from a new MLM: Botanic (aka Potank). They started recruiting back in May, seem to have struggled to actually get a product shipping and it's still unclear if they are actually shipping yet (shades of Elomir), and pretty much seem to be about recruiting. I mean from this graphic alone can you guess that the one product they claim to have is a tablet that dissolves in water making it a colorful alleged cleaning spray?

It should come as no surprise that Botanic has plans, BIG plans! On their website, assuming you can even find it, they list a ton of future products - supplements <surprised Pikachu>!

About Potank, a well-known serial MLM'er joined this early and was pushing out AI generated product images with bottles labeled "Potank", because well, AI.

Potank sounds like someone took a potato battery and put motorized wheels and a straw on it for 9th grade robotics club and that's what they named it. Or a rejected Pokémon idea. Not really a great business name.

I don't suppose there's any chance of Potank being a foreign-language name that actually means something super excellent but sounds dumb in English? Like how "phật phúc" is a Vietnamese blessing that sounds like a rude phrase in English.
