Title: Blue Hill Mining - Plagiarized Whitepaper
Post by: GreatArkansas on May 29, 2019, 11:39:44 AM
ANN THREAD: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145356.0
Thread creator: bluehillfoundation.sup (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2604565)

Whitepaper: https://bluehillfoundation.com/docs/whitepaper.pdf
Whitepaper Archived: https://archive.fo/zu2lh / https://docdro.id/XJAWxhI

Copy from their whitepaper (https://bluehillfoundation.com/docs/whitepaper.pdf):

Detailed:
Copy:
The Blockchain is an  incorruptible digital  ledger of economic transactions that can  be  programmed to record not just financial transactions but virtually everything of value.

Original: https://blockgeeks.com/guides/what-is-blockchain-technology/
https://i.boring.host/168RDjwP.png

Copy:
Information held on a Blockchain exists as a shared — and continually reconciled — database. This way of using the network has obvious benefits. The Blockchain database is not stored in any single location, meaning the records it keeps are truly public and easily verifiable. No centralized version of this informa-tion exists for a hacker to corrupt.

There is also one post by the ANN creator from their thread I found plagiarized here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1926895.msg51264272#msg51264272,

To put it simply, a security is an economic instrument representing an actual asset. Stocks, bonds and managed property trusts are examples of securities. Traditionally, when a security is purchased, the operation is done the old fashion way, on paper. A security token performs equally in functionality; the difference is that it confirms ownership through Blockchain transactions, meaning that the records of the owners are encrypted and the information is spread though thousands of computers across the globe that can be traced and the information is stored in blocks that stay for good. Security tokens offer a number of financial rights to investors such as equity, profit dividends, income shares, vote casting and access to many other investment mechanisms.

Another hopeless project for investors. Its really surprising to see something like that those guys are running a ICO project by stealing ideas from others.

When I discovered that their one of the post on their ANN thread, I already doubt on their project. And check their whitepaper and boom, there's also plagiarized on their whitepaper. I don't trust their project anymore.

I completely agree with you! This is a SCAM. I will add a link to this.



This project is a know scam.

Project needs a flag as it is still being actively marketed, now using a bumping service that includes an account used to shill for the new Bitconnect scam (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=804116), among other scams.

Flag for Blue Hill Mining. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=300)

Also, I doubt their "CEO" is actually involved in this project. You'd think he would list it on his LinkedIn:

https://www.linkedin.com/in/kurt-becker-6a60731a/

Also also, they are using an image from this article (https://www.worldhighways.com/categories/road-highway-structures/features/tunnels-eliminate-bottlenecks/) about highway tunnel excavation to put their logo on top of:

Blue Hill Mining project plans to bring the mining industry to a new level with the help of blockchain technology.  Blockchain will allow users of Blue Hill Platform to track information about the sources of raw materials and concentrates, which can not be obtained in the traditional way today.

Wonder why they uploaded the image to an image hosting service located in Russia when they're supposed to be from Germany, regulated by Switzerland, and mining a mountain in Mongolia... Hmmm...

They are still continuing their plagiarism, especially on images.

Once again about the Blue Hill Foundation

Blue Hill Foundation is a Dutch Stitching formed by European private equity investors. (Blah blah blah)

Another stock image (https://www.volvoce.com/africa/en-za/products/rigid-haulers/r100e/). Actually its worse than a stock image because you clearly used this image without Volvo's knowledge or consent.

Nice edit, removed the brand name of original and change the color of the subject  :D

If this kind of action, it is still considered as plagiarism right? Because they even remove some of the brand name/logo of the picture and didn't even acknowledge the owner of the original image.

How we can stop them? Like, even you visit their ANN thread, totally a BUMPING SERVICE happening, the thread starter still not banned, already reported it with a plagiarized case. I'm gonna report it again.
Also, thank you Kuya @nutildah for still fighting against them :D.

Yeah I dunno, sometimes they surprise me by doing things like listing geographic coordinates of an area in Mongolia, and some of their team members seem like real people doing real mining things, then they do something like publish one of these images as their own graphics... Its like, why can't they use their own pictures if they're a legitimate company that is already actively mining?

They will continue to post all that bullshit, despite any warnings and scam accusations. They are paid for that. There is no way to stop this scammers show, so just let them do what ever they want. All necessary warnings has been made, and no one sober and with clear mind, will  invest a single penny in this scam.

There is nothing original about this SCAM. Even their videos are bought content.

Here are just a couple of examples used by the Blue Hill Mining Scam promotional Video (https://youtu.be/KI4zH_d3GAc). All content is bought. This is a SCAM

I only chose a couple of examples at random, and I was only 33 sec into the video. I intentionally did not name all the examples in the first 33 seconds as I don't have all day to write them up.  The video is 3min 19 sec long so we can imagine how many purchased video clips/photo content are being passed off as Blue Hill Mining.
