Though the project is a bit old, I wonder if they still doing or promoting their crap project and wants to make an ICO/IEO or whatsoever well, the site is still up with common scam website template.

Supported the flag though.

They are busy now conducting an airdrop, they are trying to expand their audience in this way. That is why I noticed them and decided to check for suspicious aspects of the project. White paper looks very unprofessional, does not contain useful information, at the same time it is plagiarism from other articles.

Thanks for the support!

Supported the flag and given a negative feedback as well. Although they aren't active in the forum anymore this will serve as a precautionary measure for people once they plan to re-enter the forum. Even their first attempt to enter the forum you will notice that they don't really have a big audience here.

Basically expecting something better from this kinda project is nothing but a waste of time. Stealing content from anywhere else and hiding team info is quite common in most scam projects.

Flag supported and user Tagged from my end.
