Good day, this company has already held a bounty company in 2019, at that time it was given a flag for plagirism whitepaper, after which they said that they freeze the project and return funds to investors, 1 year later they create a bounty company again, and as you can see from the screenshots below, they again used plagiarism, the first few pages are all good, and then they did not even change the name from Holochain to xhumanoid !
Please pay attention to this project and do not expose your funds to danger !

If I'm wrong about something, I'll delete the post, but in the meantime, you can check for yourself !

Did you notice it closely? Why actually they did not edit the name Holochain to humanoid? Maybe this screenshot will help to understand better.

It seems the project will be run on the Holochain platform and they describe in the whitepaper what is holochain in detail. When they typed Holochain is: means all the info below are about Holochain. In this case it maybe not plagiarism IMO.

Perhaps, but I would still be more careful about this, since there have already been problems with this company

A lot of their website content is also plagiarized from Wikipedia and Medium articles... They really didn't put a lot of time into creating it. Looks highly scammy. They don't have any comments or activity in their thread. But I'll keep an eye on it going forward.

I don't know if I should respond or not. The person opened a random thread with false allegations. There is absolutely no connection between xHumanity and that company he/she is trying to fit in as xHumanity.

@Shef198911 - Can you even show some realistic proof when making such connection or is it baseless like your initial allegation of Whitepaper Plagiarized. And will you care to even apologies for such wrong allegations? It is almost stupid for someone to open a thread mentioning of such thing and not even even bothering to read.

@nutildah - Anything we have taken from any other source, it is given reference in the Whitepaper. It looks highly scammy in which term? On basis of a randomly opened thread, which seems done by a foolish person having no clue about things and when clearly shown the mirror is saying I would be more careful?

Is this a joke or what? Shef198911 you should be ashamed of targeting us like this.

I'm saying much of your website content is plagiarized from other sources, none of which are credited.

For example, this part under Token Distribution has been copy/pasted by a dozen projects, including yours:

Quote
It’s compatibility of the token with third-party services wallets, exchanges etc, and provides easy-to-use integration.

Then pretty much everything under your FAQ has been copy/pasted from other sources. Granted that it is standard language, but I certainly wouldn't invest in a project that can't be bothered to write its own website material. By not generating original content, you're basically saying you don't care about your own project... that it's a short-term thing and you have no long-term vision.
