[ANN] (QTUM) - A Scalable Smart Contract Platform w/ Proof of Stake

IS THE ICO ON TOMORROW???

Someone should make contact with Chinese exchanges that are hosting the ICO and give them a heads up.

With all the PBOC activity lately a potential scandal is the last thing they would want.

Thanks for the reply Gleb,
I missed that post,
I don;t really appreciate all the fud going on here.

I have been around crypto for aslong as anyone here, i have seen countless scams & have been caught up in a few.

My spidey senses does not sense a scam.

Each to there own though.

PBOC's newest rule says: no ICO, no crowdsale or crowdfunding. If QTUM is continues ICO, they will be inspected by PBOC, and those exchanges offer QTUM ICO will be shut down. So many people boycott this scam, cool, hope their ICO will be cancelled.

We're working to release a few updates soon, but the Token Sale won't be March 1st.  We haven't announced a formal date, we were saying March 1st a while back, but we changed it to 'March' even before the attacks started.

We've been quiet over the last few days as we assess some of the attacks, but we've also received a lot of private support.

Some of you have pointed out that we haven't 'moderated' anything on this thread, I think even the trolls would agree that we've been pretty tolerant, but please remember there comes a point where it turns into outright abuse.

[whale_shark]

With millions from rich backers already donated why do you need a token sale?

[stackoverflow]

Amazing how this got trolled so bad, it's an obvious character assassination attempt with obvious alter-motives including possibly blackmail attempts behind the scene, it's not uncommon in crypto and some groups make a living out of it.

We all know who was the real scammer behind BitBay, and it's not that guy.

Oh and here's another Dai to add to the collection: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Wei_Dai  


I would like to hear more relevant news about this project. this is obviously a failed FUD campaign, we've seen better!

Well, it's plain to see by everybody reading this that stackoverflow is not to be trusted...

It seems half brain sherlock here thinks he's the only one to be trusted, i don't see anything here but a paid failed dickhead 2 cents investigator trying to discredit this project, and all you have is useless google searches. get a life!

That's near exactly what Alexandru Ion Sovu of Black Arrow said prior to him deleting literally over a thousand posts from his self-moderated thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=294197.0. Hell, he even created a script to automatically delete posts of certain users, myself included, even when he was offline. The only drawback to our attacks is that Mr. Sovu turned out to be a pillar of this community. Oh, wait, that was a different guy, perhaps Joshua Zipkin employing the same practice. No, not him either, for I just recalled that he wanted to hack this forum before (or was it after) he burns down my home with all the family members within (true story, even made the news). Give me a sec or a year to recall which person controlled an entity and had a self-moderated thread that was, in their eyes, attacked by trolls, but later became a pillar of the community. I'm sure it'll come to me.

What's ironic is that Alexandru Ion Sovu implemented said actions after it was revealed that his past consisted of nefarious activities, akin to Patrick Dai's (or whatever his name is this week) former dealings in this space.

Meanwhile, I hope this shovel would suffice till a larger one is made available, for from what's been penned of late from Camp Qtum, you're gonna need it.

Soon™ - woohoo!
Honest question then. What's an attack, trolling, and valid criticism to you and your team?

We've been quiet over the last few days as we assess some of the attacks, but we've also received a lot of private support.

That's great! Personally I would love to see the code that your promising.

Yes, the BCT forum enjoys lively projects and coins. Along with solving puzzles.
Like the incomplete history and story you've presented the forum.
Here's a recent post summing up valid criticism about Qtum in the most plainest text - http://coinjournal.net/ver-backed-qtum-started-bitbay-dai/
Here's ICOcountdown's full reason to delist you - https://medium.com/@icocountdown/due-diligence-pack-for-qtum-7369ef48917b#.gwl99auvf
The ICO link has a lot of compelling data points you should respond about.
Even dzimbeck has seen it - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=890531.msg18009822#msg18009822

Looking forward to your response with an explanation of the full picture.

Au contraire, Mr. Shit for Brains. I highly doubt that CoinJournal thought it prudent to publish an article putting Qtum in a bad light based on nothing but a few posts penned by a half brain Sherlock (note that I spelled it correctly, Mr. Shit for Brains): http://coinjournal.net/ver-backed-qtum-started-bitbay-dai/

Since you deem yourself worthy to discredit me, perhaps you can back up your truthful claim that I get paid for posting discontent in this thread. Hell, I'll even sweeten the pot for you. All you have to do is provide definitive proof that I got paid, and theymos has my permission to ban me for life on this forum. I'll even go one step further. That goes for anybody on the planet. ANYBODY can present the proof to theymos that I'm a paid troll and my ass will be off this forum quicker than flies on shit. Fair warning, though, bud, before you or any other starts wasting their valuable time. The exact same proposition has been in play since September 1, 2015 -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1168431.0. I'm just as perplexed as you are as to why something so easily obtained has yet been presented to theymos so that he can act on my earnest request. Surely, you know that proof's out there about me being paid, as well as so many others espousing the exact same sentiment, because you're NOT a liar, like myself. Yet crickets. Are you fuckers scared to relayed the easily obtainable info? Please, do what's right for the community and get me banned for life for being, or lying about being a paid troll. Meanwhile, I'll be here in my van down by the river doing what I do best when not doing what I secondly love doing - fucking goats.

Ha-ha saw that. They really might not go to ICO. I know they said they would but each day gets worse. It was really funny on their slack hearing "We were thinking to not even address it because nobody cares about the issue." and hearing "We didn't even talk about it in the office today".

Damn maybe you can hear a pin drop in their office. Cut the tension with a knife it's like the elephant in the room then.

I've never seen a project implode like that. It's wild to watch.

Anyways guys, there is still a couple things for me to do in this build. Should have the links up today though if my tests go well.

Yep, it went from a non-issue to there's an elephant in the room to assessing the attacks to "Boys, get the elephant guns!"

I mean those Chinese exchange which host the QTUM ICO is illegal or against the PBOC's guidelines. QTUM is a Singapore based company, yes, but the Chinese altcoin exchanges need to obey the guidelines. Maybe they ignore the risk of this?

ME! ITS WHAT BITCOIN FORUM USERS CRAVE!
I didn't really want to read through all the BitBay thread to learn the connection.
So I was very please to read over the summary of BitBay's response to Qtum Foundation.

"“Let me be very specific here. And you investors make up your mind from there. This will elaborate on my somewhat emotional conversation on Slack. My hands were literally shaking from emotion as it brings back very painful memories. I’m not afraid to confront it again though.
The point being he got 10% of BitBay for free that was sold on us. He got 191 BTC minus the 20 he put in the dev fund.
The dev fund was 100 btc. There was 5 members so you divide that by 5. Thats 20 each.
This deducts it to 171.
Steven did release the 2nd key to that multisig. It was a dev fund it wasn’t Stevens money other than 20 btc.
https://blockchain.info/tx/7b1c9d0e062bdb61dd0565a98a1136c028c2b5bc05a0fa859aac2dde3d22d6ce?show_adv=false
Bob and Gekko stole some of it so that lowered it down from 100 to roughly 50–60. I would have to check year old Skype logs to know exactly what Steven said they took.
Steven told me via Skype that him and Lin from BTER would raise it to over 100 but they never did. Instead he just gives me the 2nd key
to the multisig (you know its multisig BitHalo because it starts with a “3”).
So if Steven/Lin added anything to that it was less than 16 btc. Since Bob and Gekko got 1/2 of the dev fund.
So that means Steven got 155–171 BTC and 10% of BitBay which he got for free. Steven Dai will not be wise to deny those numbers.
Then he admits much later that him and Lin bought some at the bottom so potentially Steven had 20%.
Dai will not deny this as he knows we can produce more chat logs and he himself can probably give you txids of his wallets.
Ask him yourself.""

[Frank Lefty Rosenthal]

So this dev scammed before for 100's of btc and people are still investing?

So stupid!
