After your input, I looked it up a bit more and found stats like the ones you mention (example) but also found others that paint a more complex picture (example 2 - you will need to adjust the timeframe). So not too sure what to make of them at the mo.
My understanding is different: it was a ponzy scheme (see article).
Having said the above, I am open to take a closer look at any link you would like to share that clarify or contradict any of the above.
