scam coin list

[Kane49]

Bitcoin is King.

Litecoin is no different from any other alt.
People should advertise coins by their merits in relation to bitcoin and not try to increase its worth by putting other random altcoins down.

Do you think Satoshi is not alive?

I am nooby here, I have a request to forum moderators and those 5 star members,
would you guys please make a scam coin list and put it on top of the threads, just to help noobys out? It also help the whole community clean up the garbage faster.

To be honest, it's hard to find a neutral review/information about a coin, there are always investors, bag holders and trolls interested in spreading FUD for one reason or another about every coin. And this place (subforum) is FULL of those lately, but now it is also full of new people trying to get information about the coins in order to invest or just mine them. To those people THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO LEARN ABOUT CRYPTOS ANYMORE (it once was).

But a (moderated) site with this kind of information written by knowledgeable people would help a lot this community.
Think about a wikipedia article where promotional language is banned and edits must be approved by a selected number of moderators.

I would definitely be interested in this kind of site and could provide the infrastructure for it.

Does anyone want to join ? If we get a nice team this could be very helpful for the community.

I would like to see some mods chang this the other way with a real time investment in educating new ppl with the right information about all 'em alt/crypto coins.
i did place a request here too

for a fair orgnized listing.

So let me get this straight. You want a CENTRALIZED listing for DECENTRALIZED currency   satoshi is rolling in his grave about this I'm sure.

Decentralized in its nature not information about it for the good of everyday ppl.
how would you expect ppl to support a new coin or even existing one with little or none review or just ppl bashin this one and praisin the other?

Let us make the rule, every coin is a suspect until it proves not.

how is that?

if your looking for good long team coins look at SXC

By promoting your coin in my thread, you are about to hit my scam list. Now, tell me why sex coin is not a scan

[peta4e]

Good point : ) Do not underestimate the users here. Using spamming to promote alt coin will not be well accepted.

you should do your own research about the coin for all you know I could be lying to you about it lol

sxc is not my coin  I just get on well with the devs and think its a cool coin

[eddilicious]

As I see success (= good exchange rate and high demand) justifies all kinds of pre/instamines, taxes and "coins held for bounties" .

As a virtual currency, the success should be defined as,
1. be able to exchange for fiat currency, like mtgox, or
2. has it commodity exchange, like cex.io, or
3. has a market to use the currency to exchange goods and service, like silkroad, or
4. as a payment method in the real world, either buy a pizza or pay tuition.

not just price jump from 0.000004 to .0003, then dump.

We can still make it decentralized. create a poll, let everyone vote, nobody judge, everyone make their own mind.

I actually like sxc concept. If we look for applications for cryptocurrency, the first place will not be supermarket or Susan's diary store. It always starts from the underworld. sex coin is a good thing, or craft coin. If we go to meet someone, do I want to carry $300 in the pocket, or carry a phone then transfer 300 sexcoin when we meet? I vote for sexcoin.

but in order for it to success, the coin has to be widely held by 5 million ppl, not concentrated in 10 ppl's mutliple addresses through instamine or premine. and the dev has to be actively looking for new applications for its coin, not just pump the price in some exchange.

Your request is DENIED. Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one but, not a single one matters.

Yet they all produce matter

[PinkPotatos]

Problem is most people on this forum define a scam as a crypto they haven't personally profited off.

sadly this is true

count me in, send me some info, i am now building my own scam list. but so far, I lack the ability to review the code and audit the blockchain.

[zackclark70]

before you post adt on the high premine list it was ment to be less than 3% but due to the reduction in total coins it will be 5% up to you if you call that a scam but that's the facts

There's definitely some truth to that, but I don't think there's anything wrong with taking the ultra-skeptical stance of "guilty until proven innocent" with every new altcoin that pops up. And the criteria eddilicious listed isn't rigid at all: requiring source code weeds out potential malware, for example.

[maxxoccupancy]

I don't believe pre-mining is a bad but, there is a lot of opposing forces towards it these days. Partially why all these NEW coins die anymore is because they can't pay or won't pay the devs to maintain the coins. Pre-Mining is an incentive to the dev to continue to work on the project. I myself support pre-mining or instamining for that matter.

Generally speaking I agree but pre or instamine is only a short term incentive. A kind of "tax" would be a better approach, as that would be a real incentive for long term dev involvement.

Better yet, post-mine or at least parallel-mine.  If we know that, for every 25 coins paid out, the development team is getting one or two of those coins, then they at least have a stronger incentive not to Pump&Dump.  Ideally, those who create the altcoin should get the last 10% of coins mined.  That would maintain the strongest incentive possible to maximize acceptance and the stability of their own product.
