Hello that is a great sarcasm post Ive seen from theymos. It's sound like they endorsing a certain project but actually it's just a sarcastic approach to the SEC that keep bombarding the bitcointalk and cryptocurrency as scam. Howeycoin comes from the word Howey Co which was the case against SEC and W J Howey Co that tackles about the investment matter conflict. Which is same as the issue about cryptocurrency as investment product rather than a utility only. Here is a reference link for your info.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEC_v._W._J._Howey_Co.



i have seen this case, but can you say it simple?
is it a scam, if yes then why senior members are supporting it

if not a scam, then why website i mentioned in my thread  says it scam?

thanks

It's a fake ICO that was launched by SEC to raise awareness and educate every investor that's interested with it.

The SEC Just Launched a Fake ICO Website to Educate Investors

The SEC created its own scammy ICO to teach investors a lesson

The SEC Has an Opportunity You Won’t Want to Miss: Act Now!

Haven't you felt the sarcasm while reading those comments?

I was also able to read his advertisement few months ago, but i have no interest in it, it might be because i have no such funds that time, or i was busy with some other opportunities, but looking into your statement, it made me realized that i was really blessed not to take an action at that moment, thanks for this.

it was a joke and legendary members just supported this joke. it is obvious.
By the way, do you know what does Howey test mean? This test determines whether token is a security or not.

'If its too good to be true, then it is probably a scam'.
Surely, you must have heard words as such...
