[ICO SCAM] POP Chest Ether Scam Token Beware Valerian Bennett Shame to Cryptos

[Popular]

Hi Bitcoin Talk and Popular Coin Holders,

It is with a heavy heart that I have to do this in order to let the community know about the Ether Scam Token Called POP CHEST who is trying to use the already in use trading ticker (POP) that was established by the coin I work for PopularCoin in 2014.

In the 6 years that I have been involved with Bitcoin and Altcoin trading this is as bad as it gets.

and unfortunately it has happened to the coin that I have dedicated the last 5 years of my life to. PopularCoin (POP)

Of course there have already been several scams already where a token tries to use the ticker POP and name POPCOIN to lure PopularCoin (POP) users into participating in their markets on fake exchanges.

PopularCoin (POP) has been well established since 2014, you can see the Founder give a speech here at the first ever crypto currency convention in 2014: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QY4E7jCTtMk

You can find PopularCoin (POP) on all the marketcap calculation websites such as:
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/popularcoin/#charts
https://digitalcoinprice.com/coins/popularcoin
https://coinclarity.com/coin/pop/
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/popularcoin

All searchable by Popular Coins Trading ticker (POP)

I personally reached out to the "POPChest" Ceo Valerian Bennett and told them that we have well established the trading ticker POP and to stop scamming people using the PopularCoin trading ticker. Apparently he did not listen or I would not be posting this now to the the community that I have been a part of for 6 years now.

Its Funny if they think they can create and ethereum token and call it bit_chest and then SCAM people by calling the trading ticker BTC ??

Its a Scam.

I have never seen anything like it in the 6 years that I have been involved in Altcoins, it is a shame to all crypto currencies and just shows where we are now with scam ether tokens POPPING up left and right.

The best we can do is inform the community and keep pressing on.

If all of this weren't true, I wouldn't have posted it.

What popchest ceo can is just do like the popchain team did and other Scam Tokens that wannabee POP use their own trading ticker for example popchain is (PCH) its pretty simple, and anyone that is falling for this ICO should really think about how much of a scam the people they are buying into are.

Why can't we just go back to before all the Scam Tokens?

I understand why you would make this post. I did know about Popularcoin for years and I never saw a an ether token try to use the same ticker, but I have seen other ether tokens which try to do it from other coins I even saw an ether token which tried to use the trading ticker eth, its a scam and people will figure it out!

Exactly! Its a SCAM!


I cannot believe it. I messaged them over 6 months ago to remind them that they are producing a SCAM when a digital currency with the trading ticker POP has been available and has 1000s of users since 2014.

Hi, I am the founder and designer of Popular Coin (POP)

We fairly launched POP in 2014 and have been steadily developing and growing the POP markets now we have launched POPNOMICS https://popnomics.com where we have already 3,000+ signups in the first 6 months while still in beta.

In classic times, POP was listed on all the well known exchanges which some NUBES may not be aware of.

Going back to 2014 As reflected on CoinmarketCaps Charts: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/popularcoin/#charts
CryptoRush
AllCrypt
MintPal
Cryptsy
All the above exchanges ended up closing

Now POP is Still Listed on:
Cryptopia
NovaExchange
TradeSatoshi
Crex24
MeanXtrade
C-Patex

PopularCoin (POP) has been well established for 5 Years Now, and I have been working on it along with our marketing team and developers.

I take this as a personal attack on myself as well as the 1000s of PopularCoin users throughout the years who have invested their hard earned money.

We will continue developing the product of PopularCoin (POP) and POPNOMICS.

These guys think that they can just go in and take any trading ticker they want just because its an ICO and they have calculated that they will get 3.5 Million dollars in funding fromt he ICO

POP Token Information
Total Supply:   1,600,000,000 POP

Circulating Supply:   800,000,000 POP

Initial Price:   1 POP = 0.00002855 ETH


With these ICO Scams they can easily build a website with a fake team and even make it look like they "will in the future" have better tech than the coin they are targeting, and then do ICO all using that coins trading ticker.

It's a sad day for AltCoins when there are eth tokens which are not even really Alt-Coins,.. they are Alt-tokens.

I know, we are doing everything we can to combat this.

Here is a website I found that an anonymous POP holder created - Hopefully that helps them get the point, they are producing a SCAM.

I have looked into this and it does appear that your well established coin "Popular Coin" with the trading ticker "POP" has been established since 2014

Did you message them on telegram or anything?

I Sent them Messages on their website, and twitter almost 1 year ago now.

I am going to go visit their telegram now and start telling all their users about it.

Here is the transcript from the conversation so far.

Unfortunately this guy is acting like the pompous spoiled asshole that apparently he is.


"
Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:08]
Hi, I am the Communication Director For Popular Coin (POP), how are you today?

Valerian | $POP, [10.01.19 19:09]
Excellent. How can I help?

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:10]
It was recently brought to my attention that you are trying to use the same trading ticker as my Coin established 5 years ago on January 28th 2014

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:11]
I had messaged you already regarding this in march of last year when I first found your project.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:12]
I couldn't imagine that you would continue with such activity if you consider your project a serious one.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:12]
I am here to somehow work this out with you.

Valerian | $POP, [10.01.19 19:13]
What is it that you want?

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:14]
Well, I mean, ideally for you to acknowledge that my team established the trading ticker POP 5 years ago and that somehow you were completely mistaken and did not know that the ticker POP was already in use.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:15]
At that point you would want to publicly change your trading ticker to something like PNET? or whatever it may be, as we have already established the POP trading ticker.

Valerian | $POP, [10.01.19 19:18]
Actually, your project was dead for quite some time and is not well distributed, nor actively traded. Typically these matters are decided by the free market, not by fiat.

Best of luck with your efforts.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:18]
Actually, the project was never dead. All markets were stagnant for 2 years.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:19]
We have been developing the product for 5 years now. We have always been connected to all coin market metrics websites where you can see the we are traded as POP since 2014.

Valerian | $POP, [10.01.19 19:20]
I think we should agree to disagree and move on. Thank you.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:20]
Well, I dont think that you really want to do that if you have respect for your shareholders.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:20]
Or if you have respect for me.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:21]
It would be as simple as publicly changing the trading ticker to even maybe $POP

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:21]
but by using the specific trading ticker POP you are producing a scam.


Here I waited 5 Minutes with no answer:

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:25]
It is well known that you just do NOT use a trading ticker that is already in use. For 5 years in the world of cryptos where there are dumb scammers everywhere, there has never been such a serious attempt.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:26]
It creates brand dilution, people wont know which coin they are trading, exchanges that are smart enough to double check the markets will not be happy about it either.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:26]
Essentially  what you  are doing is making an Ether token and naming it LTC, or BTC, or POP, whatever you think is the coolest even though it is already in use.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:27]
No matter how you look at it, its a scam, and a personal attack on me and all of the work that I have put into  it over these last 5 years.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:28]
Not to mention the 1000s of POP holders.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:38]
If that is all you have to say, I will be sure to let you know that I will be behind every action you make. There to let your users know that you are a scam.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:39]
And I think that you are as big of a low life as cryptocurrencies have ever attracted.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:39]
I came to you Man to Man.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:44]
You are a SCAMMER! Yepp, I bet you Like the Trading Ticker of the Coin We established in 2014!

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:45]
You ended up being more of a pompous asshole than I thought.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:45]
All of this will be public information.

Popular Coin, [10.01.19 19:46]
I was giving you the benefit of a doubt

He has not answered after this.

I was moved and sad to read the story that you experienced  , I also did not expect that this part of the fraud (SCAM) happened. It's very embarrassing and makes us all think twice about really getting involved in cryptocurrency. This kind of event should not be repeated in the future. Let us think about how to find a solution to stop all ways of fraud. Because this is very detrimental !!

Yea Man,

Its bad, shit tokens everywhere, trying to ICO about any random Idea they have.

What is really sad is that Popular Coin (POP) is building some cutting edge tech that every social media platform will be using in the future, and a big part of the crypto scene just ignores POP because its all about who has the most money to startup. Its not about community, its about who can pay for articles to be written etc. the whole system is a bunch of fake spoiled brats running the show. just like this Valerian Bennett asshole.

If you hear anyone talking about it please let them know these guys as pop chest token, are scammers, who cannot create original ideas.

I don't really know about this case. But If you suspect that something strange or the coin looks like a scam, you are better to make a thread / topic on Scam Accusations : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

Thank you, I will make a reply in that thread too!

In this case a token is trying to use a trading ticker which is already in place.

The trading ticker POP has been well established by PopularCoin since 2014


Also, it is good to mention


This is NOT an Accusation.

Popular Coin Fairly Launched here and on CryptoCurrencyTalk in 2014 here is the original POP bitcointalk thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=444745.0

We fairly launched with 0 premine for the community and there are 1000s of POP users Globally.
