1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: ⚡⛏️[ANN] Giga Watt: Best Home for your Mining. Starts today! on: October 05, 2018, 04:48:40 PM
Has anyone used everbloom to buy WTT?  How do I get them from Everbloom to my GigaWatt wallet?  When I entered the WTT contract number into MetaMask it doesn’t come up...
You can buy/sell them on IDEX or Forkdelta. Just bought some on IDEX, withdrew them and am renting them on Gigawatt just fine.

Really interesting project, I'll keep an eye out. I think I see the difference between this and Etherdelta, not really sure why this isn't getting more attention. Exchange looks fast but doesn't look like there's any volume? I guess that makes sense if you just launched. So if I buy some dvip tokens I get discounts on your fees but how exactly does that work?

There's value in an aged coin, and I hope this project can gain more momentum. I'm afraid the ship has sailed on pure money coins though

WAY too many red flags at this point. You've been warned

I've been following this project for weeks and had planed on investing this morning. I had my wallet loaded up, but the escrow insanity was the final straw and I won't be investing.

  • The interview videos are unprofessional and give vague details about the project, along with uncomfortable silences. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IewRkEv6IHQ
  • The marketing videos promise the world on a platter with next to no details (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS-BxuVRyy0). Huge pans of the world but no substance.
  • The aforementioned association with https://icopromo.com . I hate asking this but why are so many huge ICOs coming out of Russia?
  • The weird and seemingly uncaring attitude toward pre-ico people. The math just didn't add up and it seemed sloppy
  • PULLING THE ESCOW. My god, having 3 owners of the company hold the escrow keys IS NOT AN ESCROW. Doing it behind the back of a trusted escrow and the users is the biggest red flag I can think of
  • The responses to being found out regarding the escrow are unprofessional and unconvincing.
  • The IMMEDIATE posts of vague support, also in broken english, after anyone posts valid points of concern.
  • My conclusion: These guys want to make millions, spend a few months to a year half-assed building a platform while funneling funds, then suddenly will run out of money. No one will know why, and they'll be really "apologetic", but our money will be gone.

I'm out.

I'll just leave this here. This was posted before the ICO

Too funny, can't believe this has been in development for 1.5 years

Solid distribution, as usual. Wish Byteball was traded on more than just Bittrex though

Byteball really weathered the downturn well, very solid

Interesting, can anyone give me a rundown as to why you went with Maidsafe?

Do you have a website?? You could also put some information on your github page to help people understand

Good marketing is worth at least $17 million in this new world we're in: https://etherscan.io/address/0x93025150b13eb744d51d927549a30630912e8fe8 . I hope it works out for you guys. Remember, it's a month before you can trade your tokens.

They're trusted authorities or people to monitor the money and ensure the project doesn't just run off with the funds, and usually for auditing purposes post-ICO. The bigger point is they lied about it being in escrow, that's the huge flag.

How to access the trustworthiness of an escrow?

TBH I'm not sure, besides they've done many ICOs before. Maybe @SebastianJu can chime in. Look at his profile and posts and make a judgement yourself: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=18640 .

It feels like a scammer on eBay saying "let's do escrow" and then at the last second pulling it and saying, "No wait, give me the item first. I'll pay you later." It's shady and destroys trust. At least come on here and talk about it before, during, and after if you have concerns about the escrow, don't just pull it an hour before.

Looks like to me they planned on using an escrow, a free one, turns out free= being extorted for 100k by some anon dude with high trust who people think should be holding huge amounts of money.  I trust JU about as far as I can throw him.

You joined the forum, what, seconds ago? He's been escrowing for over 6 years and has hundreds of completed projects. I can't tell if this is a joke

How can you trust one person as escrow anyways. he could easily run away with the money

Mmmmmm pie. Glad someone took over this project, not enough pie in this world

As far as I can tell, this is something like Tether meets Etherdelta? They have a working exchange at http://www.idex.market , and have a well thought out plan on becoming the bank of the cryptocurrency world. TBH I'm not sure why this isn't getting more attention
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: IOTA on: June 14, 2017, 04:40:22 PM
I hope the prices stabilize as the market opens up. Buying and selling was suppressed for so long that its' hard to believe the price right now. It's a gamble to purchase IMO, so I'll wait it out for a couple weeks. If it shoots up then so be it, at least the market will have decided, rather than just a handful of buyers and sellers.

How long has this project been in development? Do you have any code or product to show?

Wow, seems like a very fast POW to POS. Really need to get another mining rig...

Thanks for update, joined telegram. That's a very fair way of running a token sale, vs BAT and just total, Bancor (increasing their "minimum uncapped time" to 3 hours arbitrarily).
