In plain words

PonziCoin was a parody cryptocurrency project that deliberately mimicked a Ponzi scheme as an art performance and joke. The project has since shut down. It was created to satirize risky cryptocurrency investments and warn users about pyramid schemes and fraudulent digital assets.

From the sources

We hope everyone had a good laugh :) But we have to shut down. This was a parody art performance/joke. I did not "run off" with the money, I never sold any of my PonziCoins, and the contract was drained from other users withdrawing. Please be careful when investing in shady cryptocurrencies, especially ones that look like pyramid schemes - it's a zero sum game and money doesn't appear out of thinfrom ponzicoin.co
