Their logo was included in the backdrop/hoardings
Their leaflets were in the delegate pack
They had a speaking slot, three standees and ten passes

It's fairly common for organisers of these sort of events to take sponsorship money and ask few questions, see Onecoin, Bitclub Network, DeOS and many many others. Also most Chamber of Commerces' knowledge about crypto can be written on the back of a postage stamp.
There would have been little point in attempting to raise anything controversial at an event like this, security usually gets called.
It's a showcase/propaganda opportunity, not real.

Unilaterally changing payment terms, forcing investors to use an admin operated payment system, reverting to manual, easy fatal errors built in as "security", are all classic Ponzi operator tactics designed to extend a scheme's life.

Just a message to all those negative comments I had.

thanks to the continuing price increase in bitcoin, and despite the difficulty increase I am still pulling in 0.0022 daily from my initial investment.

This is only 0.0008 less than I was pulling in back in October.

...Im still very happy with Hashflare and excited that this could continue for some time to come...


That's a 26.66% fall in ROI in four months, very exciting.

I like how it says "schemes" with genesis mining.
They are the masters of the cloud mining schemes it seems.
 Undecided

Maybe "schemes" in Genesis Schemes" is a verb, not a noun.
Anyway, they should scheme, they're a business and that's what businesses do. The trick for us punters is to try and negotiate a way thru their scheming to our advantage and, if we can't do that, stay the fuck away from them.
1393  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam alert : Do NOT INVEST in Genesis Mining on: February 20, 2017, 02:35:16 PM
Should the BTC price/difficulty/fee ratio become such that big cloudminers like Genesis were daily cancelling contracts and repo'ing large amounts of hashrate from investors, then there would be an obvious longer term incentive for them to conspire in affecting the one ingredient of that nexus that they could, the short term price. 

At Genesis they cannot cancel the contract forever if price drops - when price goes up and the contract becomes profitable, they will have turn it on, won't they?

Quote from: Genesis FAQs
In the event of a contract becoming unprofitable (i.e. the payout can’t cover the maintenance fee), the resulting daily payout will be zero. After that, the contract will continue to mine for 60 days. This means that we will take care of the maintenance fee in the hope that your contract becomes profitable again. This may happen if the mining network difficulty decreases and/or Bitcoin price increases. If the contract does not return to profitability in this period it will be terminated...

1395  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam alert : Do NOT INVEST in Genesis Mining on: February 20, 2017, 10:01:07 AM
What can really save you after buying GM hashpower is that ASICs already reached 16nm chips (AntMiner S9). It's not far away of 14nm point that even Intel cannot go beyond so far. It pretty much means that difficulty won't rise that fast in the future (just guess, however).

That still doesn't prevent Bitmain and others from producing untold millions of those miners. Difficulty will rise UNLESS Bitcoin price drops to the level that makes investment in new mining hardware as risky as it was in 2015, when difficulty stagnated. Basically "investing" in GM would mean shorting BTC in a convoluted way. You might as well just hold USD if you expect BTC to get cheaper.

The relationship between difficulty, total hashrate and price is not a simple subject (for me, anyway) about which to make definitive predictions.
There are many unquantifiable factors which would only become obvious if/when bitcoin turned into a bear market.
Things like sunk costs, electricity prices, capital tax breaks, the ratio of already mined to newly mined coins and internal Chinese politics are just a few of the variables that would affect decisions by miners as to when to stop mining or even when to attempt 51%.
One thing is for sure, the long term interests of the industrial mining complexes and the short term cloudmining investor will not necessarily coincide, and there will only be one winner in that game.
Also, with maintenance costs priced in fiat and gross returns in btc, the "unprofitable" contract cancellation clause gets to be a target for a cloudmining operation on its investors, similar to stop hunting in derivative markets.
Should the BTC price/difficulty/fee ratio become such that big cloudminers like Genesis were daily cancelling contracts and repo'ing large amounts of hashrate from investors, then there would be an obvious longer term incentive for them to conspire in affecting the one ingredient of that nexus that they could, the short term price.

The NNC coin is the heart and the basis of Nano
Dear members,
 
The NNC coin is the heart and the basis of Nano. Getting the coin to independency is our goal and will ensure you as members a profitable future.
If we have to let go of the coin too soon, it can endanger your benefits and therefore we need to be able to control the coin until he’s strong enough to live a life on its own…
 
To ensure this process we need to be able to invest in the coin without damaging the investments we do in other area’s such as Real Estate and Energy… That also means that we need to control the value and make sure that we can keep the estimated growth.
 
Because a certain group of members aren’t interested in the long term coin strategy of Nano, and to say it short, your interests… we had to make some decisions to protect the value of the coin and to be sure we can follow more or less the growth we have calculated.
 
We’ve have implemented some restrictions in Tradano to make sure that the coin is protected to achieve the final goal, going independent!! These limitations are temporarily until the coin has enough strength to go independent.
 
We wish you great success!
 
Georges Van Wijk

Sooooo

Tradano limitations:
10 coins a day, max 250 coins a month. (1 Coin is now “worth” 4,21 euro at Tradano.)

So, with the swap users move to a  premined coin, right?
More or less an ICO, where the devs fully control the coin?

you got it ...



Which is kinda convenient isn't it, in the theoretical situation where Swiscoin is and always was invented purely to scam?
1398  Economy / Investor-based games / Re: So this section just a shit ??? on: February 13, 2017, 10:40:07 AM
The "legit" bitcoin gambling industry on BitcoinTalk were pissed with these HYIP/Ponzis/Pyramids cluttering up their sub forum, so they complained to Theymos and, rather than putting his staff on the spot to pass judgement on whether schemes were scams, he opened this Investor-based games section as a trashcan.
99.9% of schemes in this section have no future, they are just short term money grabs posing as "investments". Admin and their sock puppets pretend they are "games" like dice and poker but that is just a lie.
Without any transparency it is very easy for the systems to be rigged with false information, queues (lines) for payment populated by admin's alt accounts and so on.
The schemes that downright lie about what they are usually get red trust for the OP, e.g. "cloudmining", "forex" etc. that give crazy ROIs.
The straightforward doublers that pretend to be nothing else aren't comparatively so bad, but completely open to abuse and rigging by the admin.

If you were walking down the street and a guy came up to you and said "Give me $10, wait here and I'll go round the corner, come back in half an hour and give you $20 back"
what would you do?
If your answer is "I'd give him the money", then this section is for you. And so is future poverty.

It's not as complicated as you may think, whether it is Cash back, Miles, or Crypto they all have a value!
We chose crypto because we believe it's more valuable than other incentives and it opens the door for an average person that doesn't really know about crypto to own some.

It's a simple affiliate marketing scheme, about as disruptive and innovatory as eating a sandwich.
Exactly the same stores, exactly the same discounts in a hundred different fiat schemes. CoinRebates for example rebate in crypto, but they pay out in bitcoin which actually has a value, unlike procoin.
What happens is you go shopping, spend say $100 at an 8% store/site using the procommerce platform. Pro receive $8 commission in cash and then give you X procoin at a value they determine based on the ICO price, say $0.04.
So you get to keep 200 procoin real resalable value unknown/sats, they get to keep 8 real dollars.

Half of the Whitepaper you labored so long and hard over is a rehash of the marketing speak in your press releases.
The coin distribution is interesting to say the least.
All of tempus' critical points remain valid and unanswered.
