I predict losses of Bitcoin for any one to invest in it. I feel no security with the photos such a team that has no name.

Thank you for the feedback. They are group pictures it would be hard to add the name of each team member depicted to the OP.
But you can see all of our core team members on our website with their names and LinkedIn profiles: https://trestor.org/about-us.

Dear canth,

It's very refreshing to answer your logical questions, most people don't care about doing their homework, we really respect the time you have spent in digging out the legal facts here.

1. Sub section (b) is not applicable to our RPs or Trestor Foundation because of 2 reasons:
 
   a. There is no administrator
   b. RPs don't qualify as receiving financial institution

Reference: https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/31/1010.100

2. Sub section (c) is not applicable to our RPs, but may be applicable to Trestor Foundation, however,  we are very confident that our compliance   narrative is bullet-proof

Most important thing to understand here is what FinCEN thinks about its own guidance: 

This guidance explains only how FinCEN characterizes certain activities involving virtual currencies under the Bank Secrecy Act and FinCEN regulations. It should not be interpreted as a statement by FinCEN about the extent to which those activities comport with other federal or state statutes, rules, regulations, or orders.

FinCEN recognizes that the actual indictment probability arising from these guidance is low, not only because of overlapping laws but also because of definition complexity.

Dear mmm01: We have notified Stephan, he will answer your question shortly.

Dear canth,

Trestor Retail Partners (RPs) are simply trading a 'token of subjective value', other businesses are able to trade various other similar tokens like old coins, artwork, stamps, etc. without any special trading license. In case of Trestor RPs, token happens to be 'Trests'

The fundamental difference between Trestor RPs and MSBs is that while Trestor RPs are traders of tokens, MSBs lets a user deposit money and assign it to another person for withdrawal, therefore they are participating in money transmission and generally charge a transmission fee.

Trestor's €2,000 Crypto Loans Could Beat Bitcoin at Aiding Greece

“One of our investors convinced his pharmacist to accept trests because the pharmacy declined to accept his credit card.
Another person was able to get his gas filled with trests in a cash-only gas station.
This third one is pretty unusual: a guy was able to negotiate '12 eggs and a loaf of bread' for 440 trests.”


— Kunal Dixit, founder of Trestor

No, it's not an initial coin offering - it's a post coin offering at a terrible price. If I buy Trests @ $0.01 ea, can you recommend a vendor that will buy them back from me at a similar price?

Our Retail Partners allow you to buy and sell Trests in locations all over the world.


We can already transfer value one country to another with a fluctuating price token. It's called Bitcoin. Or Litecoin. Or Doge. Or....

With Trests there are no transaction fees, all the coins you mentioned do have transaction fees. Transactions take an average of 10 seconds to confirm, which is also a +.
Furthermore, with Trestor there is no mining required to protect the network which is a big waste of energy, and possibly unsustainable.

Seriously...and I wanted to like you guys. Fuck off with your retarded attempt at a $1bn valuation (100b * $0.01 sale price). There is no way that you do anything besides screw the suckers that buy into that.

We didn't have an ICO and we are not planning to have one either.
Compared to other altcoins in the space it's probably a better start.

Nobody is obliged to purchase Trests, however we do get a lot of interest and our Retail Partners are happy to work with us.
That is the best feedback we can get.

Our customers are able to transfer value from one country to another with 0 transaction fees from the palm of their hands through our Android app.
We will soon be releasing a Chrome based app for desktop users too.

Watch this space some more great news are in the pipeline.

A proud team that doesn't disclose the name of any of its members?

Nevermind, clicked through to trestor.org. Still looks like a money grab. Good luck grabbing some money Tongue


So... every time you get called out as a scam, you just go away for a few months, then come back with a new account and act like this is new?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1057794.0

Thanks for the warm welcome.  Wink

We are very open, you can see our team on our website, we have three offices and 599 retail partners around the world.
We have been around for two years already and counting. We are building new partnerships everyday.

The new account is to reflect the Token name "Trests" as we are in the altcoins subforum.

Feel free to ask away.

  • Available to Trestor Partners and Trest users
  • Send/Receive through mobile app and web account anywhere in the world

Asymmetric Proof of stake(aPOS)

How does it work:

1. Trestor will select and give out 100 million Trest each (deposit account) to university interested in
    running Trestor validator node
2. University with provable history of following points can apply
    - IT access and security controls
    - Computer science/cryptography research
    - Socio-economic research
    - Democratic decision making
3. Universities as validators creates a huge economic asymmetry for the attacker
4. Trestor will help shift the global Monetary policy center from “Central banks” to “Universities”
5. 2% trests can be unlocked from their deposit account every year by the universities to fund its
    research projects


Global cryptocurrency and remittance platform

  • Mobile and Web accessible
  • Fast Confirmation Times
  • Global Ledger managed by Trestor Nodes
  • In-House developed Consensus Protocol
  • Use of EdDSA for Signatures across entire network = no backdoors
  • Fixed Supply of Trests
  • Proof of Work protects against network spam
  • Protection against Sybil Attacks: deposit accounts must have aged coins
  • Protection against Double Spends: voting agrees on the same ledger requires 80% of nodes


Strength of Network

Trestor Foundation has developed the first EdDSA cryptocurrency and blockchain - secure against backdoors and with fast confirmation times.

Advantages

Trests are backed by a global network of Retail Partners that provide easy access and local exchange for users around the world.
The Trestor Blockchain and Cryptocurrency was built around EdDSA - a next generation digital signature algorithm that is protected against backdoors.  
The combined effect gives a high degree of accessibility and uncompromising security at every level of the network.

Services

Trestor services are global. Any new and existing members of the community can go to any Trest location around the world to purchase or redeem Trests for local currency.
Also, Trests are ideal for sending money to friends and family around the world because of the global network of Retail Partners we've established.

Zero Transaction Fees

Sending Trests will be the same amount as receiving Trests. New and existing users can go to any Retail Partner location and get Trests to send to another country.
The receiver can then go to their local Retail Partner and exchange for local currency with zero transactions fees and no hidden costs.
