In addition, Zenone Whitepaper is a 100% copy of ELROND.COM, where the project name is only changed.
I will give for sample 2 pages. They are 100% identical. The rest of the page, see the links. They are also identical.

Woah. This is unpleasant.
But something else is odd: I've read on a lot of newspapers about Elrond partnership with Netopia Mobilpay, an active and working payment processor from my country.
So unless Elrond team also fooled Netopia and/or all those newspapers, I would also consider the opposite - Zenone copied Elrond.

Also the fact that, according to your post, Zenone website is newer than Elrond's supports my logic.


Anyhow, I'm not affiliated with any of the two, just I know the name from some news and I remember that back then Elrond seemed a crypto with future since they made that partnership.

I am also having a hard time trying to understand it.
Zenone seems to be newer. I think the accusation should be the other way round.

I looked through the elrond.com archive for 2018 http://web.archive.org/web/20181219035947/https://elrond.com/ and have no doubt that Zenone is copied from Elrond.
The first post is fixed.

What the fuck?
They copied everything on the website, including the team and Elrond's logo at the bottom  ;D

I think the Zenone team will come to bitcointalk soon to launch ICO  :)

ZENONE is already trading on Crex24.com https://crex24.com/exchange/ZENN-BTC

What i coincidence... was just putting a cross the same message when I saw a new reply.

What kind of exchange can't even do a simple background check before listing garbage tokens to be bought up by innocent trades.

I wrote about it in the topic and they answered:


And today I see that trading on the crex24.com exchange is stopped: "ZENN wallets are currently under maintenance and deposits in this currency are temporarily unavailable".

Received a response from the developers of admin@zenone.io
"Hello. We prepare new landing page. We didn't know, that our developers filch used Erlong design. We'll close access to page until new site is ready."
Now the site http://zenone.io is really disabled. And on Crex24.com the inscription still hangs: "ZENN wallets are currently under maintenance and deposits in this currency are temporarily unavailable".
But soon they will update the site and continue their work.
