Her took 70 BTC then removed all the web sites and everything. the ICO was through Bittrex. is there any safety net there? I didnt put a lot in just simply o.2 BTC but still scams anger me greatly. Just goes to show ICO's are very very risky.

Bittrex should refund all those funds if this is a scam because they couldnt be released to the developer(s) yet?

"The crowdfund for EDON has been cancelled. A refund will be issued within the next 2 days"

Bittrex will refund those funds on their exchange since the ICO has been cancelled.

This is just incredible, especially given the fact that he could have used the Bittrex escrow. Must be ridiculously rich to toss that much down the shitter.

Maybe he thought it was another Lisk or Waves ICO with legit developers.

Rich people never throw away money and are extra cautious, apparently this guy didn't care, this kind of major mistake has to hurt.

Why am I not surprised at all?  Cheesy

Tiny Cryptocurrency history tells us that about 95+% of all ICO coins turned out to be a scam... But hey... Keep buying them.. Keep on filling up the pockets of con artists...

Why do you buy into an ICO? Simple.. Greed.. You assume/hope you can make a nice profit and dump them on the market to some dumbass who missed the ICO and is willing to pay more the the original ICO price.. Amazing how some jpeg design images can make people think like that..  Smiley


Amazing how people are willing to set such a marketcap to a coin which isnt even launched yet.. and shows no signs of innovation.. lol..

Actually I never expect to make money from ICO's I do it to get some of the cheap coins. I usually sell to get my initial investment back and HODL

I understand that... And that is sort of the same as what I said.. But worked out different Wink

Anyway... Leave ICO's guys... This will not be the last one of this kind.. This "dev" just received capital to create 10's of other ICO coins.. lol.. (If the 220 btc story is true)
