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

[rubiprojects]

Wow, FUDsters seem to have taken over this thread, I don't understand why some people will base their conclusion on just a tweet that this project is a scam. I'm not trying to defend Qtum team but there should be more information in the space before coming to conclusion that this is 100% scam

Yep, it is very not clear now, if it is scam, why angel investors got screwed too? If it is real scam, it will be the hugest scam all of the world.

so, someone essentially steals money on a previous project and creates his own while at the same time trying to assume another ID

are you honestly going to trust that person with your money?

[scambust]

Ohhhhh! Scam foiled.

Good job, Joshua Bouw.

the same guys that fucked #BitBay and David Zimbeck are the guys behind #Qtum.

search brings up Steven's real name. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=850267.4255;wap2

Google that you get: http://domainbigdata.com/sixchain.com  Patrick's e-mail which is consistent with what Zimbeck said it was.

Google that and you get a ton of e-mails used for articles in Chinese. http://www.8btc.com/how-to-fork-ethereum …, look at the author name 帅初 and the pic

 帅初 is the same Chinese name on Qtum's team page in Chinese. https://qtum.org/zh/team-zh/ 

The picture of the article is the same as https://bitse.com/team/   Patrick's page.

BitBay response to association with QTUM co-Founder Patrick Dai


The BitBay development team has been asked to comment on the possible link between one of BitBay’s original founders, and Patrick Dai, a co-founder of the QTUM Project.  BitBay’s lead developer, David Zimbeck has confirmed the man using the name Patrick Dai from QTUM, was known as Steven Dai when he was associated with BitBay.

Steven Dai walked away from BitBay with publically invested Bitcoin & millions of BAY from the initial offering which has never been returned.  The BitBay team recommends extreme caution when it comes to investing in any cryptocurrency project associated with Steven (AKA Patrick) Dai.

BitBay is more interested in letting people know about the future than reliving the past. Even without support from the original founders, David Zimbeck has continued with the development of BitBay. A fully functional decentralized Smart Contract client is freely available for public use and is the most advanced crypto currency product available today.


That doesen't look like FUD. I wanted to invest into their ICO but after I read these news I don't touch it anymore.

It's a great calamity

[Alonzo Ewing]

So there wont be an ICO from first March for sure..Thanks for the information

[aidia]

If 'patrick' / 'steven' is a founder surly he invested at the start using his own cash (Bitbay's cash) so do Bitbay own QTUM?

He stole 200btc from Bitbay's ICO & used it to fund this project

Shit is hitting the fan for sure. Scammers make my blood boil.

[leigh2k14]

This looks really, really bad for the Qtum team.

No one with half a brain cell would put money into this.

[wrxbuzz]

Do you think OP will remove all of negative posts? It is difficult choice for more investors, they have already got massive VC, but they won't get more money from us.

Who are the stated VC's supposedly involved with Qtum? Lets do some digging, and find out whats real and not.

[eastwind_ja]

this  is a chinese  coin,,,the only thing I  know is  dont  buy any chinese coin

[Johnny00]

Obviously no response from qtum

[MofoMF]

I got a question,when will start the qtum crowdsale on their official website,how will this work,if they start it at 10 , i`ll be able to transfer the bitcoin before the sale starts ?

[RavenBitcoins]

I read on another chat that Patrick is traveling. From what I have seen Roger Ver, Anthony Di Iorio, and all the top tier investors supported Qtum regardless. I will assume that they know Patrick. This accusation does not appear to be new.

Ohhhhh! Scam foiled.

Is it true? it's really clear to become an evidence. Spreading a good word into the community. I'll take my to invest on this project. thanks for the awareness.

[scambust]

My understanding of this QTUM scheme is that Dai and his co-conspirators will get their hands on the ICO fund, leaving the starry-eyed developers/ real coders with nothing. To salvage their reputation, they'll be obligated to finish the project pro bono, which means the pace of development will be at "volunteer"or slow speed. LOLZ.

[Qtum]

Obviously no response from qtum

The discussion is all happening on Slack.  Even though this thread is moderated, trolling and fud is fine, it's only spam etc that will get deleted.

It doesn't look good for you, or your team.

What was few days back considered to be one of the best ICO has now turned out to be biggest scam.
I wouldn't touch it with 10 feet pool now.Even if they weren't proved to be scammers, I wouldn't have invested because of high bitcoin price anyway.
