Too bad GetGems didn't work out. The concept had elements that remain valid and interesting. I'm certain it wasn't intended as a scam. However, once it began to fail, there was a troubling lack of transparency and very possibly a major conflict of interest.

Intended as a scam or otherwise there is clear precedence for legal action. Throughout the initial  development of Paykey Daniel Pelegrín issued statements saying that Paykey was developed by GetGems. Perhaps I am jumping the gun and GetGems adopters will be rewarded on launch of Paykey. Paykey is still under development after all.


The truth is these guys knew exactly what they were doing. They made every legal point work for them. That's why they made some huge worded disclaimer about what tokens are.....and the big thing they aren't is any claim on the company. Token are a very narrow product, they knew that.

The lesson to learn of if you ever hear of a token sale....run a mile, a token doesn't mean you own anything and can move on and make your token obsolete anytime they want. That's why this Israeli guy is doing another token sale on his trading platform sale. If successful you know he will charge people or get banks seed money etc. Token holders will be frozen out.

Also don't trust coins that seek seed capital, it looks great, free money right? But it always comes at the price of handing over something to them. Ripple is bullshit, go make money trading it, but it's not crypto, it's banks using crypto to do the same shit they always do, screw everyone.

If I was king I would hang them....but I'm not.

This is why I respect XEM... Huge free distribution and some additional distribution that didn't cost much. The team continued to work on it despite languishing prices for a long time and plenty of people had time to get in low so you can't really call it a premined scam.

It's as good as ripe but not centrally controlled with huge supply lockups.

Never been a huge fan of NEM, I got a stake and sold it like an idiot doh! I never liked the equality ideas that bordered on communism from the first developer that eventually got caught scamming and was kicked out.

BUT As long as a coin has a hard cap, and is decentralised and is not controlled by any one entity then I dont have a problem with it. Compared to ETH and Ripple it ticks my boxes.

seems one of the getgemz group is back with

coindash ICO ....



No way. if the one is Daniel, Getgems holders will not accept the ICO. And again some of the team members photos are with sun glasses on.  Cool

another BTC collect and "dash" away ICO?

guess our
GetGems ICO money is used for this scam ICO as for their fuel, drives me nuts.

Well what is going on with Paykey now? 

Daniel, in reading, please update<g>.

I held Gemz once a very long time ago and I even made some profit but I've always followed their threads after accusations and concerns started to arise. I honestly don't understand how it came to that situation and I'm not even sure if the project is active because there was no official statement as far as I know, I do know there is no active market.

Can any of you guys (early investors, holders, etc) know what's the current status of the project? The site and app are still online.

I just did few google and found paykey obtained some bank customers. what a surprise IBM is listing as a solution of Paykey.

Daniel is not mentioning GetGems in his profile. He knows this is pain in the neck in his carrier. We will not tolerate.
