only 2200 dollars raised........
guys, this project is very similar to synereo ,
they raised 150 k dollars first round, developed something,
camr back after a year and raised millions,
i suggest you guys do that in which you should raise any amount of funds and use it.
unless these developers are expecting to be paid upfront and not rewarded with coins.
is there a minimum raise?

One really big difference,
Counterparty has abandoned the counterparty ethereum EVM development.
I don;t know whether they will carry on with development for it.
That article is old

Yeah, $20 was bearish in retrospect,
$3000 -$5,000 is more to the mark.
 

20$, you heard it here first

Is this legal?

Its good news btw....

Seeing how Metaverse has zero regard for its western investors.
Here is what i dug up

Tips:

• If you need to test the mining function, make sure the memory is not less than 1GB

• First Run Make sure that the free disk space is larger than 2GB

5, yuan yuan open source address (Github):

--------------------------------------------

• http://github.com/mvs-live

The current public Metaverse code base has been transferred to the excellent library of iterative development, so the open source library code is not the latest version. All code (including the mining algorithm) will be on the main network (mainnet) on-line synchronization, GPU mining code will be in the main line after a period of time after the publication of detailed technical details.

------------------------------------------

6, in the 0.6.0 test version, meta-sector support:

• Global unique asset issuance and asset trading capabilities.

• Based on the Bitcoin HD wallet's account model, users only need to back up the master private key. (While also supporting random keys);

• WebUI supports Chinese / English / German languages;

• The main private key mnemonics support Chinese / Japanese / English and other languages, the wallet itself also supports part of the explorer function.

------------------------------------------

• Three core concepts of meta-community : Avatar - Digital Identity, DigitalAsset - Digital Assets, Oracle - Value Intermediaries

As we all know, these three concepts is the yuan community was founded at the beginning of the yuan into the future development blueprint. Our vision is still hope that all users can use these three core elements, to create their own financial brand.

In the 0.6.0 beta, we focus on digital asset functionality and implementation, as well as the initial implementation of digital identity (the current account information is not synchronized to the block chain, the digital identity, the user will be optional identity information (encryption ) On the block chain), and digital identity of the core functions and design details will be announced after the Lunar New Year. Oracle's core design will also be released after the digital identity synchronization.

8, mining:

------------------------------------------

Based on the existing consensus algorithm in the market, after many discussions and discussions, we finally design and determine the POW -based, according to the characteristics of the project, the selective integration of PoS Advantages, proposed double Coinbase technology design concept. POW mining in the ordinary coinbase, in PoS , the user can also consume the age to get interest (reward) This is similar to bank deposits, user deposits (consumption of money age), the current block after the specified height can be spent Deposit in the money and get interest (reward)

• At the same time, in order to ensure the fairness of ICO, we ensure that the total amount of PoW is 30 million during the mining phase, which forms the division of power between ICO , POW and Yuanjie Foundation.

• The specific algorithm for mining will be announced at the same time as the main line.

------------------------------------------

Yuan sector in September 2016 the end of the crowd, in the development of the staff to the post after about four months of intense development, during which there are many design changes, failed to update to the white paper, so we will be the main online line Also released the latest version of the white paper, the meta-sector white paper version 2.0 (github).

Maidsafe = The future.
I';ll qoute ya when its surpassed Ethereum

Go GO STTRATIS !
Well done at the block chain expo.
This is one of my favourite projects atm.

Excellent work

Well done Heat team.

Corrected?

I have reason to believe that this was Placebo.
Screw you Placebo

I was never involved in that project,
I basically bought a little bit of Dlisk and thought the dev was legit.

they raised 10k dollars, so you could own a large percentage of it for very little,
The dev ended up running away. I luckily, recuperated my investment.

But atleast Dlisk had more to show than this. He actually released a working fork of lisk client and block explorer within the dates he gave.

So far with Heat, we have nothing !

Stewie i am on your side,
I would prefer that this isn't a scam as frankly i invested as i really liked what i read in the whitepaper.
But we only have to wait like one and a half more days to know the truth.
So lets just chill untill then.

If they don;t release on the 26th, this is a certified scam.

Ok i am going to give this one more week MAX.
TBH the C-Cex order book isn;t looking too bad. Close to my buy in.
The problem is liquidity.

its been two weeks FFS. Why is this still not out.

To all C-cex investors, they still hold 150 btc 'Belongin' to HEAT.
I propose we contact C-CEX and try push for them to refund C-CEX Heat investors with these funds.
I just need to know - Does anyone know how much HEAT was issued on C-CEX?
How much would each C-CEX investor be entitled as a refund based on the 150 btc currently held by them.

I really did want to see this project succeed however these guys are taking the biscuit now.

Interesting - Watching.....

Your logic is so wrong, uneducated & generally stupid.
You could apply your argument to every single altcoin on coin market cap....'Oh it can just be forked'.
In that case bitcoin should be worth nothing, ethereum should be worth nothing and all the other alts.
I am sure you have two braincells in that little head of yours to guess why that isn't the case.

Anyways we are happy to not have you on the rocket ship to Stratisphere. We're all going to laugh at you when we are there.
