OP, check this big spammer, he created 30 twitter accounts.  Angry Angry  He got 53k of 300k twitter bounty, and he is cheating on FB bounty now..

He can do whatever he feels like. We'll find him and he'll get exactly zero ICN from bounties for his spammy work.

How come that the ICNs earned from Social media campaigns are getting decreased faster than the one we have in our accounts (deposited using Bitcoin) ? aren't they the same thing ? (stakes aren't moving so I'm not sure why ICNs are moving that much)

We are selling 85% of ICN tokens.

Bounties are different category.  Twitter for example has a pool of 300k ICN tokens. And if number of retweets increased 30% in the past 24hours, then rewards in Twitter bounty category decreased proportionally.

Hi,

when a Wallet will be avaible and when we get the Coins?

Wallet is already available - Mist, since that will be Ethereum based tokens. ICN tokens will be distributed probably 10days after ICO ends.

Good news, but is it going to be supported by myetherwallet.com, because of the issue of downloading and updating the mist wallet

We're meeting them next week. Stay tuned.

Iconomi, I have a question, will you ban those twitter spammer(that special tweet) immediately or manual ban? If manual ban, IMO they will undo that retweet to avoid banning.

They are already marked. They can undo retweets if they feel like. But they still get no bounty.

i just agree with this tweet " due to bounties abuse we ask you to like this tweet. do not retweet retweet will ban you. if you are not a bot, this will be easy. " and i'm not disagreed with this tweet " should retweeting few tweets in a row could as spam? i guess so. what else would count as spam? ". and the rules to get bounty is retweet every tweet on iconomi twitter account. and last night i was do that because i want this bounty. why so much new rules here?

Not really new rules. Spam is never welcome. Not in email, not with 100 solicitors ringing ur door bell and selling you crappy stuff every day, not with people spamming ICONOMI bounties.

What is new here is that we are defining rules and setting traps around to catch spammers. Btw: we have strategies to find and eliminate spammers, but they won't be disclosed until ICO ends - in order to prevent abuse of those rules again.

Once ICO ends, we'll tell everyone if they're accepted or banned from receiving bounties in 3 days. Those who got banned will have 3 days to appeal. At the end of 6th day resolutions will be final.

I believe we'll find 95% of spammers with all the techniques.

Wise man,  Grin Grin  Do you also ban bitcointalk local spammers? I find many Indonesian, Chinese spammers. Let's don't pay them.   Angry Angry Angry

We'll ban all the spammers.

Agree. I don't think ICONOMI team should try to add new rules lile x retweets in a short period of time is spam. I think a majority of the people did the bulk retweets for convenience, not that they were bots or cheaters. It was not their fault. You never mentioned any rules like x number for retweets allowed in x time.
It's your fault, not theirs. Bit what's done is done.
I think now the focus should be to catch multiple account holders linking multiple twitter accounts and automated bots.

We are not introducing any new rules. We just don't like spam. No one likes spam.

If you would be my follower and I do 100 retweets in a row about ICONOMI.. would u consider me as a spammer? Yes you would. And so we'll we check for all the spammers. Support is one thing. Spamming is another.

Let me say that loud again:        W E     W I L L     N O T     T O L E R A T E     S P A M

This is the rules for twitter bounty to avoid fake twitter account.
this is a good solution.

IT IS,Nice one! Wink

and my account will be get banned? cos retweet in a row last night?
Same here mate i retweet every ICONOMI tweets last night lol but i follow Iconomi since 3weeks

from now i don't want to retweet again because i don't want to get banned

So you guys don't even READ the tweet before retweeting ?
If you act just like bots, you'll probably be considered as such, guys.

Exactly! Retweeting without reading. You're not supporter, but spammer in that case.

ICONOMI,

Someone asked this question on Reddit.  Could you provide an answer to this?
 
Quote
I am not based in the US, but wouldn't it be necessary for US citizens to be accredited investors in order to be allowed to invest in this project? ICN is clearly not an app token, it has very obvious characteristics of a security, even promising a dividend. Isn't this what makes listing or offering to accredited investors only necessary in the States?

https://www.reddit.com/r/icocrypto/comments/4zuk5h/iconomi_icn/d7a41in

ICONOMI,

I came across another related comment to the above.  It's in reference to the Golem token sale, but same rules would apply to any ICO.

The Howie Test:

Under the Howey Test, an interest will be classified as a security only if the following three elements are present:

*an investment of money has been made,
*in a common enterprise and
*the investor has the expectation of profits, which profits are expected to arise solely, or substantially, from the efforts of the promoter or third party.

So here is what is going on. You can insist all night and all day that your "Tokens" are "just crypto, man, it's unregulated dude" until you are blue in the face.

Problem is, according to the Howie Test, if it looks like a duck walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a security, must be registered with the securities and exchange commission, must be sold only to accredited investors worth more than $1 million excluding the value of their home and with 5 years of trailing income of $200,000 per year, and you can only promote the security (like you are doing here) if you are a Registered Rep for a bona fide Registered Broker Dealer.

Here's where your token becomes a security "It is important to note that GNT will NOT be used for payments within the Golem network: Its only role is to grant the owner a share in the Golem network’s fee revenue."

Oooffff! You SAY it's a token. But according to the Howie test, people have to pay in ETH (which has a dollar value), the token carries no votes and no say in the management (so 2 and 3, a third party will do the work) and you are selling it with the expectation that a profit will be made by the "investor" from the fees and distributed to token holders.

No voting rights + dividends = Preferred Share!

If the SEC notices, or if you piss off anyone in the slightest, particularly because you are raising well over a million dollars---you could go to jail just for this post!

Everyone involved in the management (and your little investing club) is also selling securities, unregistered, without a licence! They need to all STFU until the lawyer tells you how right I am.

Crypto exchanges wont be able to sell or carry this, because it is a preferred share, and while they are Fincen licenced, they are not SEC registered broker dealers! It would have to be traded on a stock exchange, and stock exchanges don't do crypto, so you'll have to create paper!

You guys really, really need to get someone from the business faculty (this is a school project right?) to corroberate everything I have told you, and call a securities lawyer for advice before selling this like it was fucking Dogecoin.

Dogecoin didn't pay dividends and no promises of profits were made---and they didn't use financial terms like "ICO".

I STRONGLY suggest you remove this post and any others where your non-licenced ass has been peddling and promoting unregistered securities to unsophisticated investors. This post is enough to put you in jail.

If you read ETH's ICO info, you'll note that they are very, very careful not to promise any profit at all.

This is where you are fucking up. Call a lawyer.

Your welcome. (I am a former LICENCED Stock Broker).

https://www.reddit.com/r/Ethinvestorsgroup/comments/4wu46p/golem_token_sale/d6a7lat

Can your legal team respond to this and guarantee you're not putting yourselves, investors, and the ICONOMI platform at risk of litigation?

We'll check and address this. Not now. Could also be with a blog post.

you try to sound professional, but you somehow sound desperate - you shout too loud to be taken serious. AND if you write about something, at least have the name spelled correctly (as a native american speaker  Smiley - poor Howie is actually Howey

Very interested to hear more discussion on this, bumping this so it doesn't get buried in the bounty-spam spam

IMO, the mistake in the name shows that he recalls this Howey rule, so at least, it's not some Wikipedia copy pasta.
Sounds legit to me.

Now, as he mentions for the ETH example, Ethereum foundation was careful not to promise any profit at all.
Well, ICONOMI team didn't either. With the exception of the graph showing a 400% return on a simulated CMF, on the past half year.
Every other mention of profit in the whitepapers / ICO page, precisely mentions "they don't promise any, only scam ICOs do".  
BOOM. There goes the third rule.

I didn't know about those investment regulations in the US, though. That might explain the relatively "small" amount of USD versus EUR.

Vinz421, you're a good observer!

Simulation is simulation and app tokens that were put into ICONOMI.index have solid explanation of why they are there OR why some are not there. Classification.

Regarding USD/EUR. It is much harder to invest with USD then to send EUR within SEPA. Additionally to that, quite few EUR investments came from the "old boys" that we can recognise by name and they recognise / know us / know our advisorss / social circle / know our promises and chance of success. And since we live in Slovenia, country with EUR that is a factor as well.

what is the max retweets we can do? and is it/hour or day? i mean something like 2 retweets/hour or something like that
i dont want to get banned just because of one tweet cos i usually check my twitter per 2 days

edit : maybe you should put the "likes only" tweet for every few tweets, good idea on that

Let's put it that way. Imagine your friend who is checking Twitter once every 2 days comes and retweets whatever amount of tweets. You are following him on Twitter. When would you say "damn, he is spamming again with ICONOMI". That will be definition of spam.

There is a lot of truth in what is told here. I have looked as many accounts twitter have come today and have just made a retweet of all messages of ICONOMI for an hour. Also have received the bounties.

Therefore I have bought 30 accounts twitter for $1.3 from 1000 followers everyone, and now I do as everything, I just do a retweet of all messages by one stream.

I think you won't be able to discover all my accounts, and I will receive the money.
Thanks for an opportunity.

P.S. I make now too most with Facebook.
^^^ How you are going to deal with this ICONOMI team, this multiple accounts shit?
Only way to deal with this is that only those accounts should qualify to receive Twitter/FB bounties that have invested at least $50-$100, you decide.
A person can easily buy 1000 Twitter accounts and then create 1000 Iconomi accounts to link to them and accumulate bounties.

Multiple layers. Won't disclose exact details as we're not sure yet. What is sure is that we will not tolerate any spam.

Good luck with your strategy. We'll find your accounts and ban you. Spam won't be tolerated at all.

Yes. 6/224 is not problematic.
335  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] ICONOMI - Fund Management Platform ❘|❘ 5% bonus now on: September 14, 2016, 04:13:43 PM
So no credit cards either?

@ICONOMI will Paypal also be an option for depositing money into your platform? I think that having it could help you reach bigger masses Wink

No. PayPal will not be an option. Reverse transaction is way too easy with them.

At least not at the beginning.

However, we'll issue our own debit cards, but that's entirely different thing then accepting funds.

Regarding Twitter and Facebook dashboard

We are hitting API rate limits and therefore some numbers might be showing wrong for you. Please allow us some time to clear this up.


Regarding spam

Spam is bad and unwanted. It hurts honest players. We'll fight and eliminate as much spammers as we can. What we can tell for now:
- same comments from same person on multiple FB posts will ban that user and rewards will be zero
- multiple retweets will count as one
- twitter accounts with fake followers will be banned. most likely we'll use twitteraudit.com score bellow which we'll ban user will be determined later
- more to come


If you have any good ideas or best practices we're listening and do everything we can to fight spam.
