I was going to invest in this ICO but I am second guessing it now after checking out some of the Linkedin pages. Everyone on board is basically unemployed or has some shoddy inexperienced background. Very underwhelming for a team leading a new coin? Anyone agree or disagree?

It's typically on page one of the ANN section.  The ICO jumpers will fall flat on their face with this one.

i know, i was being a little lazy and at the same time casually pointing out the fact that OP dropped this info and opinion in a new thread and never provided a quick and easy way to check the offeres?  the site?  the ANN?

Checkout the team section. Legit I was going to invest but I realized I was basically investing in a ponzi scheme lotto ticket. Nobody on that team should be behind any cryptocurrency.

Does this signal the beginning of the end for easy money pump 'n dump ico schemes? At this point this ico hype is getting beyond ridiculous.

Their ICO is not really looking good. One month into the ICO and they only collected just over 600 BTC. I don't know how much their burn rate will be but that wouldn't be enough to last them 2 - 3 years in my opinion. They should spend some of that ICO money and do some more and better marketing.

The only thing here beeing a scam is your social media profile. Your crypto life centers around losing cash in online gambling and getting ripped off at coinbase. Dont trust his lies!

In fact most ICO schemes are scams indeed. That team does not look technically able to implement their plans. This is most likely not going to turn out well for the investors. They have raised almost 500 BTC and will probably hire developers to do the work later on while sipping on a piña colada themselves.

It would look better if they cited specific companies and projects they have worked on.  Almost every profile has a very general description of their experience and where they work.  One guy works for "a fortune 500 company" - which one?  If I am going to invest in something I need to see the who what when where and why.

After reviewing these profiles I agree. It seems like they should release some working software then do an offering.

The consulting company involved can't even manage to maintain its own website?  https://dontpanic.consulting

The fact that people stuck it rich in a few ICOs means that people will continue investing, in the hope that an alt will turn out to be the next bitcoin/ether. Unethical developers make quick bucks and move on.

i don't get why i should invest in this ICO, i mean the project gives me a lot of doubts

- why not just work with lisk team instead of forking it?
- what are the advantages over lisk to justify a fork?
- why you need an ICO for this kind of work?

to me sounds a bit strange and not worth the investment

I am starting to think that most of the ICOs and IPOs are more or less scams.

If you have a great business idea there are much better ways to raise money, in the case that you really are honest.

Yea after reviewing the profiles I realized what I was doing was gambling. These people aren't even close to qualified to launch or run a new platform. They don't even have proper corporate experience or relevant educations.
