Very quiet here and on Twitter. THIS raises some suspicions.Devs should clarify the situation!
I am kind of skeptical of this ICO as well. It looks like Deja logged in today and his last post was May 31, 2017, 05:53:06 PM so it’s not too bad.
The GitHub was last updated three days ago so I don’t know if they are working on LNK on the side.


I don't see anything wrong, github was updated today not 3 days ago, and devs were talking in slack just hours ago..

wow so many alts of trolls attacking this project, it almost seems they get a reward for trolling on bct coin topics

Only 30% sold during ICO, how will the other 70% come into the circulation?

For every MCO token sold during ICO, there are also 2.33 other MCO tokens created that are in a lockup at launch.  Founder/advisor  (0.833 / 0.166 tokens) release after 3 mo, talent pay (0.333 tokens) comes in after 12 mo, project treasury reserve (1 token) may never be cashed in at all...

Thanks for this info! So a big dump can be expected after 3 months. No thanks, will not join this one.

Yeah, basically there is a big stack under their control, I would say an 'excess' of coins, it wasn't needed so many funds that's why the ico is for.

Who here to invest in the project? Really there is a great distrust on the same, I invest a little, I hope not to disappoint!

I believe many, project is even on google searches ads

What coins FundYourselfNow will accept? will it accept both fiat and Bitcoin or it is bitcoin focused?

I was looking into the website and just found the whitepaper got a big update which looks good https://ethereum.link/files/Whitepaper1.03.pdf

Legal Question: If I rent my bandwidth to a mysterium network user who performs illegal activities through my internet connection, could I be charged?

We are working on several ways to protect Nodes from illegal activities from clients. Eg., whitelisting for certain activities to be allowed to run via node.

I'm reading everything I can on this project. This quote bothers me. If my internet use is completely anon, how are you going to stop me? Also, if you can't access certain .onions or other naughty things, doesn't that virtually destroy what would be the first demographic to start using your product?

Hope I'm not coming across like a dick but this has been the only redflag for me afte reading as much as I can. This project sounds awesome but I want to understand everything before investing or getting involved.

Thank you.

I believe anon users is not a must-have group for a blockchain project, it can be avoidable, bitcoin had a quick recover when silkroad was seized.

What's the relation between this project and  Mycelium? almost the same name and logo  Grin I know features are totally unrelated, Mycelium is just a wallet, but name is alike
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [LNK] [732k+USD RAISED] Ethereum.link | Flexible Market Connector | ICO started on: May 24, 2017, 02:11:18 AM
LNKs available 55k
Sold 28,875k
Not bad  Grin
Yes true, even though the price of the bitcoin continues to rise, but the users remain Ethereum.link ICO investment. I think it is not difficult to reach $1,000 million before the ICO is complete (16 days again).

1 million will surely be reached easily, just for the rising price of eth and bitcoin, my forecast for this one is 2 millions sold and 20-30 millions or even more value after 60-90 days of distribution.

"Hi Everyone,

I'm Kris - the founder of Monaco. Just opened an account on Bitcointalk to answer all the questions you may have regarding our company and the token sale.
We'll be posting a thread shortly...

I think we have to start by acknowledge, that:
- in hindsight, we should have had done a few weeks of pre-marketing to make a good first impression on the community
- we are late with even the basic stuff - like posting ANN on bitcointalk
- but at the same time, we are very happy with the results so far with our minimum being hit in under 2 hours and that we hit 10,000ETH milestone during the first 24 hours.
- we think since we had zero pre marketing ahead of ICO launch, the results are amazing and the only reason behind it is simply our product: people love the Monaco Card & App
 
In terms of addressing the single most common question: why only 1 day notice. It's actually pretty simple. The single thing that pushed us to launch ahead of our original July schedule was a competitor running towards an ICO with a 90% same value proposition (FX+crypto). Our CFO was at an event at VISA Innovation Centre in Singapore on 11th of May, where he ran into another founder, who basically told him what they're working on and that their ICO is going to launch in June. We made a judgement call to finish working on our ICO within a week and launch, then spend the next 30 days to gradually build exposure and increase our brand awareness, so everyone has plenty of time to get to know us and do their due diligence.

Naturally, we had no idea people would think this is a scam.
- we've been working on the product for almost 1 year
- we have very experienced team of entrepreneurs (I sold my previous business for US$21m in 2013, our CFO is ex-Mastercard)
- we have serious heavy-hitters on our Advisory Board from companies like AWS, VISA, Adyen, Emarsys


I guess to a certain extent it's a function of us not understanding how does this community think and operate. We're learning fast and we're committed to being open and transparent, so that everyone can have their questions answered. I will be here and on our ANN thread answering all the questions you may have. I also encourage those who find our project intriguing to join our slack channel: https://monaco-card.slack.com/ - it's growing steadily and is probably the most convenient way to get to know us personally.

One final note: the team is based in Hong Kong, so please note the time differences in case we don't respond instantly, it's probably middle of the night on our end.

Kris"

This is really sad. As an investor how can I invest in a company who doesnt know the industry?
Learning as you go is good but it also means mistakes are bound to happen. Major ones I think judging from whats happening now, poor judgement in launching the ICO without proper marketing and lack of knowledge in the community.
The damage is done. No one will trust your coin. Some of your employees on the webpage as so many people here on this thread pointed out are questionable due to the lack of representation of the Monaco company on their LinkedIn profile. At this point, your coin/token is very questionable.

The explanation looks rasonable, I don't mind if they launched with 1 day, everything looks legit and I have nothing to worry about, great team and CEO.

I knew about this ico due to their ads in etherscan.io

Project is still at half of crowdsale period and it almost sold everything, this is getting big.

With this we can see tachnically speaking, is not difficult to change any already written parameter - to change the code value of it, when talking about crypto-currencies the difficulty only comes when adding non-existant features. You can modify any of those features here https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/init.cpp

But you can't just alter some value in the code and get with it, consensus should be reached to modify even the minimal thing on Bitcoin as you'll modify the code in thousands or millions of user computers, it's decentralized.

Surely this'll have the success aimed at it, this could be a great asset to main ETH/ethereum network as they are mostly focused only in enterprise adoption at this moment.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Gnosis - the decentralized prediction market platform and oracle standard on: May 22, 2017, 04:23:36 PM
GNO dev keep too many tokens, it lead to no person paying attention on it.

Hope project gets big enough to capitalize all these token amount, in the short term I may see my GNO still raise in price besides the profit we already took.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [BCN] Bytecoin. Secure, private, untraceable since 2012 on: May 22, 2017, 04:17:43 PM
What happens with BCN, so the price of coins is so sharply increased?
Poloniex price high 280 satoshi

Nothing, someone with lost of btc is pumping it, like all the other shitcoins right now...

See coincap.io - total marketcap for both alts and btc keeps rising billions every week. pick your coins wisely. Wink

all the other shitcoins? so bitcoin is a Shitcoin, I believe many so called shitcoins are getting real use or development at this moment.

Hello , someone on slak have give me this link to manage landing:

https://github.com/amichaelix/wavesgo-leasing


is a safe program to use or is it a scam?

Thanks for helping.

This is completely safe.  That tool was developed by the guys over at WavesGo and has been used by many to sort leasing problems.

That is the official link.

This is legit, you can audit the code by yourself to see there isn't any hidden thing.

Now they raised 50% not bad i think this project become successful because the result its been 2 weeks they sold 50% LNK and they have more weeks before ico finish.

i think 50% is good funded, i hope this ico can filled full 100%
i hope the android wallet will be release and make this coin more competitive.

It will surely get funded at this rate and instead of wallet, it will be an android app, the one to trade silver
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: 🔥[ICO]EncryptoTel: Secure VoIP and B2B blockchain communications infrastructure on: May 10, 2017, 09:11:15 PM
Wait a minute the ICO is still going on?

3 million hard cap has been thrown after the window?

What a pity. They have been ticking all the right boxes until now.This one wrong decision changes everything. It shows their words can't be trusted.          

All the trust and reputation will be lost if they don't rectify this blunder.

Wouldn't surprise me if people start demanding refunds for blatant breaching of ICO terms.

Coming perilously close to being called a SCAM.

 

I don't like this either, terms should not be broken.

Edit: crowdsale is over!, this was a great decision, if any future project needs more funds then write it from the beginning, later it cant be changed.

Success! congratulations!
