Their replying algorithm :

Does the comment point out any suspicious red flags that anyone with common sense would ? -> reply with FUD.


@CaveSpectre
Thanks for the nice analysis on their smart contracts. I was 100% before, and now i am 120% confident this is a scam. Although I would still have had no trouble marking this as a scam without it.

I hope no one still thinks that there's even 1% possibility of this being legit.

This is a scam twice as more obvious than bitconnect. Don't even think about sending ETH to this ICO.

BTW the countdown timer on their homepage just added 7 more days 2 hours before their scheduled ICO. They are postponing their ICO by a week for the second time for no good reason. I do not understand why they are still sticking to this failed scam, just give up already. At least come back later with a more credible one. Onyx was pathetic and embarrassing even for a scam project.

While the team's linkedin profiles are real, their relation to onyxfutures isn't mentioned anywhere on their profile even to the slightest degree, which means these scammers just used random profiles, which just by itself is a crime anywhere in the world. Unless Alex and Blaine mention anything about onyxfutures on their linkedin pages, this is 100% guaranteed to be a scam.

FUD, what a magic word. Just say FUD and expect everyone will disregard every red flag this scam has. Yep, that's how it works.

And yes, I did create this account just to post here. So what? Doesn't change the fact that my arguments are valid.

tldr; Don't invest. Below are the points they are making. I will copy paste them here in case they edit anthing.


@Miiike if investors want names released, we will meet with advisors tomorrow morning and update you on the details.

@Memory942. We see that you are another person who just created a profile that is spreading FUD .

1. Decentralization is the key to the success of this project. The smart contract will handle everything and we won't' have control of anyone's private keys.

2. The similarities in the WhitePaper is that we have the same idea. We are much better because we are offering 10 Futures Markets as well as planning to launch our trading engine in Q2 2018. We aren't asking you to invest.

3. All Futures Markets will have the same business model; just as all lending sites do.

4. We will be much better than Digitex. It's only your problem if you miss out; once again we aren't asking you to invest.

5. Just wait to see.

6. Users can post on our Reddit page.

7. We are doing things the natural way. We aren't paying for our word to e put out; its organically growing.


Thanks for visiting our site.


===================================


1. Decentralization is the key to the success of this project. The smart contract will handle everything and we won't' have control of anyone's private keys.

->This is the reason they are giving for not revealing themselves. If you have any common sense, you can see that this is complete bullshit. By their logic, I guess every other coin whose developers are known are all centralized? Decentralization has nothing to do with revealing the developers.

At this point, even if they reveal themselves, I advise not to invest since the team will be probably fake. They are probably making fake profiles at this very moment.



2. The similarities in the WhitePaper is that we have the same idea. We are much better because we are offering 10 Futures Markets as well as planning to launch our trading engine in Q2 2018. We aren't asking you to invest.

-> See my point #5 on the post i made earlier. Anyone with futures trading experience knows that more markets mean nothing in futures trading.
Also they are keep saying "We aren't asking you to invest" kind of bullshit. They're desperately trying to make themselves look more legit by acting confident. Don't fall for this.



3. All Futures Markets will have the same business model; just as all lending sites do.

-> Yeah, sure. Just look at this and decide for yourself.

digitex : https://imgur.com/a/U5xby

This is only an example of how similar the whitepapers are. Blatant ripoff.

Btw, their ICO page says 720,000,000 tokens are available. Their graph says 700,000,000. They're not even proof reading.



4. We will be much better than Digitex. It's only your problem if you miss out; once again we aren't asking you to invest.

-> Once again, acting confident to look legit. "It's only your problem if you miss out" - trying to build FOMO. Is that the way legit companies talk to their investors? No. Never fall for this bullshit.



5. Just wait to see.



6. Users can post on our Reddit page.

-> Only after I made my previous post they made it possible. Also, their reddit page is a joke.



7. We are doing things the natural way. We aren't paying for our word to e put out; its organically growing.

-> But when they have 18 people in telegram group 1 week before ICO, I think it's time they start paying for marketing. If they even have a marketing team, that is.



Seeing how unknown this ICO is, I don't think I need to even make these posts since nobody's gonna give a shit about ONYX anyway. But I'm just doing this because I'm a digitex investor and I'm mad at the fact that they're trying to use digitex team's hard work to commit fraud.

I would be disappointed if this ICO raises anything above 0 ETH.

1. No team. Instant red flag and nobody should invest in a ICO where the team doesn't show its face/history. This is not about decentralization or anonymity, it's about trust. The fact they're trying to use those two words as excuses to not reveal themselves is ridiculous. Even with just this point alone no one should invest in this, but I will go on just for the sake of it.

2. Blatantly copied whitepaper from digitex. Slightly changed so they can argue that it's just similar, but not exactly the same. Seriously? This is so sad of an attempt at a scam. Are you guys middle school students?

3. Exactly same business model as digitex. Even the ICO details are almost the same.

4. Claims to be better than digitex but I don't see where it can possibly be better, since whitepaper is a complete copy.

5. Claims they are better because they have more markets. More markets doesn't mean anything in futures trading, if they had any experience in crypto futures they would know why. Just go to Bitmex and see if any other markets other than BTC/ETH are even close to active.

6. Users cannot post on their reddit page.
-> After this post they made it possible.

7. Telegram more dead than OW players think TF2 is. At the time of writing the post (1 week before ICO) there were 18 people.


DO NOT INVEST. DO. NOT. INVEST.

YOU MIGHT AS WELL BUY BITCONNECT COINS.
