I see volumes on Yobit are out of this world. Step aside BTC and ETH, ION is taking over.

$12 USD in 4 hours is indeed impressive.

I'm actually impressed there's any when the head guys can't even get the wallet to work.

Why not betting on any tennis matches the French open is on for nice chance for some wins on sure matches  Wink
Thought you loved to bet on tennis there CarlesPuyol  Undecided

Just because there are games doesn't mean you should make a bet. no bet is infinitely better than a bad bet.

Comparisons to Apple and Angry Birds are stupid.

Yes, both of those companies have trade secrets. We are not asking ionomy for trade secrets, we are asking the basics about how the business works. There is a big difference.

If you invest in a KFC you don't get to know the secret recipe, but you would be able to find out how and why that particular store or stores plans to make money.

"How do electrified stakers work?" is not a trade secret, it's a basic of how ION works.

This one was a very simple mistake that people forget to factor in when making sports bets.

I'm still not quite sure how much money he ever had or ever actually had. Look at what the forums look like when people realize they are getting scammed, pirate, bfl, neobee, shit even the gaw people eventually caught on and started freaking out. the lack of outrage over inability to withdraw and the total number of coins he actually has makes me question how much of this is actually real.

No clue why he would continue going on, maybe this show is enough to keep the investors that he actually does has from going to the authorities or making his life hard.

Makes sense actually. I have often wondered the same thing. His FB page is like half-dead. No investors say anything except for a few already identified in this thread etc.

Maybe you are right - Maybe it's all just a fucking total delusional shit-show - Leroy sending himself coins every week, posting (penning?) and just making it look real... Wow.. That would be epic scammery, IMO. Grin 

There must be some mark somewhere on the hook for something to continue the show. It reminds me of scam of old active mining. Delay after delay after delay and no customer freak outs looking for their miners, yet the genius "investors" bought every lie and delay for a while.

Me too.. I mean, how the F is that dude's scam site not insolvent by now, especially since the past week?  Huh

It's been insolvent since he paid out the first full withdrawal. He can keep doing whatever it is he's doing because he won't let anyone else withdraw.

Makes sense. Forgot about his Nazi policy lol... Roll Eyes

What I don't get is why he continues to defraud. Is he hoping/praying the price of btc to plummet so he can bail himself out, or just delaying the inevitable, because we all know that's not going to happen anytime soon. Well, unless more developer problems come up like last summer, when btc hit less than 200 USD a coin, but I just don't see that happening again this summer...

Every 1TH/S returns you around ~3500 satoshis each day. Is it time for GM to reduce their maintenance fees?

Is that after fees? Because that doesn't match any online mining calculator I can find.

How can they lower fees if they are legitimate? How does the increase of difficulty change the real world price to run a miner?

So let's start with an easy one: why is Ionomy PTE not listed as a registered business in Singapore? Like the ION team has stated? That shouldn't take up too much of your busy schedule. They should have the answer...boom, 3 minutes and this question is over.

The company has been registered under a name you have not searched for. The company has been waiting for a pin (which they currently received by snail mail) and are in the process of changing the registered name.

Yeah, no big deal, just a $50k penalty - that's like two weeks worth of dumping. And/or two years of free meals and lodging.

Neat, only took 99 pages to get this answer when at least three people asked in unison at once.

I would love to see what agreement people who bought ION through folding in their XPY/PCs.
Probably says nothing about any of this or the conversion.

I wonder who's the Singapore citizen who's helping create the shell for the ION team and the private exchange.
They'll be on the line for the fine, if anyone reports it.

We're coming on 100 pages and at least we have a possible company.
Suchmoon and myself only had to click through the explorer ourselves to find the genesis block.
I look forward to more of this ION transparency  Roll Eyes

To be fair, the address and graval have been posted before.

As to the Singapore citizen, the address that was given in this thread earlier leads to this site on google http://www.nomineedirectorservices.com.sg/contact/ which should spur nothing but confidence.

I wonder what the purpose of renaming an old company instead of starting a new one is.

Who would possibly buy 20,000 ION at ICO prices to turn around and sell them for 1/4th the price of what they paid for them? Probably a person that got them for free, hmmmmmm...

Well 169 thousands coins were staked "for free" since the start, so ...

Hmm, where have I heard this kind of shit before?...



Maybe it's them evil POW miners dumping their ill-gotten coins... oh wait...

Nope someone stole their stakers and is dropping coins into the market. Seriously the coin is out what 2 weeks and people are day trading selling at a loss? Yeah people just randomly do that...

People need to stop thinking like this.

"selling at a loss" and getting something for the xpy that was worthless a month ago is not a loss.

You cant Remove coins from stakers for 3 months at min. So its not someone who converted XPY. It is someone who purchased coins and is trying to get out to get something else i think. Its the nature of the beast i would say.

Forgot about that. Are their interest payments getting paid out? or staying "in" the stakers?

Still wouldn't fault anyone for bailing sooner rather than later.

And as a homework assignment I hope that you correct the 2 obvious typos in the ionix description when you go to fix edgey.
695  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] ION [ION] | ICO LIVE | PoS 3.0 | Mobile Gaming | Join the ionomy today! on: May 24, 2016, 02:01:03 PM
I hope this doesn't cause another shitstorm because I know certain people don't like when I question the intelligence of the people involved here, but it's been 3 days since I posted about how "edgey" Urban Words will be and the typo is still sitting there.

since sarcasm doesn't always translate well, let's just put it straight out there, to any investors who think this is a serious thing

"edgey" is not a word. It has been sitting on the website of the thing you are investing in for a while. A typo is not the end of the world, but it shows a lack of attention to detail, which I would think is important. Who wrote the description for urban words? who checked it? How many investors have read it and not realized there's a blatantly obvious typo? Have you brought it up to the team and it hasn't been changed for some reason?



ION full of scam because paycoin coin supply still 11.5 Millions and still not burned xpy. paycoin xpy supply should be 7.5 Millions after burned. please give answer is it not scam again?

They can't burn the coins because the xpy wallet keeps crashing when they try to do it.

Were they the one's responsible for the xpy wallet? Or was that another "team?"

Even if they weren't the one's responsible for the xpy wallet, what does their inability/unwillingness to go through the effort to keep their word and burn the coins say to you?

Bet 3% - 0.015

Toronto Raptors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers   
Pick:over 196.5 @ 1.93 WIN



Congrats for the winning Smiley
Final score: 105-99 Toronto
Should of trusted your pick and not try and get thee over 207.5 points for 3.25 odds for this game.
Lost 30mbtc instead  of getting close to 60mbtc with your choice on this one.

Greed cost you this time..
Yes it did as it had for Carles just weeks ago with a 97% roi. Should of stopped there and walked away.
But I was looking at 1.84 odds from my bookmaker for over 197.5 and at the 3.25 odds for over 207.5 odds and said what the heck and went for the bigger payout. It was only 10 points and Cavs are point scores in the playoffs I said at the time. Should of listened to Carles on this one.

try to stay away from bets like this. It's hard enough to win making "regular" picks, they always add extra juice when moving the line, and don't come close to paying out properly when you are moving the line to make the bet harder for you to win.

I wonder where the investigative journalism is on this story?  I miss coinfire.

What is there to investigate?

A con man conned a bunch of marks. What is there to investigate? It was obvious that hashlets couldn't exist, there was never anything resembling proof that they did exist

i do not like to talk about paycoin because it was full of scam but i just hear from someone well known person said that paycoin rebranding and new developer team will take care of it and new team members from well known crypto professionals

The "rebrand" was an exchange of xpy to a new coin that I don't think you can do anymore. The "well known crypto professionals" are the people who got scammed by garza and continued to "fix" paycoin, so I'm sure it will turn out great.

I   have got the dev team's  email reply ,,,they usually share information and answer questons  on:  https://ionomy.slack.com/

The following is the dev team's explaination why they didn't put information here


Dave (ionomy)
May 23, 8:21 AM

Hello,
The development team generally does not release information on individual developments as they seem to cause too much speculation based on rumor and not facts. There is a roadmap on the site showing the development path. You can find it here https://ionomy.com/about/roadmap.
Thank you for contacting ionomy.com support.
Regards,
Dave

So all the information they are willing to provide potential investors is that of their very loose roadmap? Wonderful. Wonder why they then made this an open discussion thread and not just a closed announcement page?

To be honest I think they underestimated how hostile the reception to anything even remotely xpy related would be. They seem to trade mostly based on their reputation amongst a very select little band of ex-xpy holders, and I guess they thought the goodwill would just transfer over to the wider community. If they had been open and honest and answered questions actively in this thread early on then it most likely wouldn't have turned into the 80+ pages of largely daft speculation that it has, but sadly they chose not to which instead makes them look shady almost by default. This inability to control the information coming out of their organisation makes it look far worse than it probably is, and the fact that they try and divert people to slack, where the reception to people asking questions has been questionable at times and the main thread is often full of gifs and random clique-y banter doesn't help matters.

Unfortunately the whole situation has somewhat backfired on them now. Any serious investors who want to research ion will be confronted by this thread and the main GAW thread and will most likely be put off. Given the rather tenuous grasp on good PR practices that they've displayed thus far, I would be surprised if there was more than a couple of thousand downloads for any game they release, if they even manage to get as far as any of the app stores.




They spent too much time in their various echo chambers that they forgot what would happen here. That plus they can use us "fudding" them us evidence back in their echo chamber about how we are out to get them. It's a play straight out of a familiar playbook.

Much better strategy, now if you are confident in picks you can bet more regardless of the results of the last bet.

One other suggestion, it may make things a little more complicated, but can help a little since you are good at tennis (which is not usually 1.9-2 odds) and do some of these parlays that don't have ridiculous payouts is to adjust the bet amounts slightly based on the odds.

The idea is that you should be more confident in a bet that has 1.5 odds than one with 1.8 odds, regardless of whether you classify is low/medium/high confidence since it is an easier bet. To take advantage of this when the odds are below 2 you bet enough to WIN your bet amount, instead of just betting the set amount. So if you have a low confidence pick with 1.5 odds, you bet enough to win 1% instead of just 1% that way you can still bank some profit when you are correct on low odds picks.

Good luck.
