[Qtum]

The Qtum Project sold 89.99% of the total tokens available for sale in the first 48 hours:

This crowdsale is going very crazy in just 48 hours sold out 90% so this is so fast than so many people expectation. QTUM will be biggest ICO of the year by now.

So some things I do not get

[6] Why are they relying on exchanges rather than btc and eth address, that the send coin out as eth and many others did.....why why why if you really believe in crypto tech use exchanges to ICO?

First, if they are scamming, you wouldn't know if purchases are real. It's a known con tactic to appear flashy and big to fool investors into thinking "it's big, so it must be legit." It's the same way that happened with Gaw miners and Paycoin. So many gullible investors burned for millions of dollars. At that time, everything appeared above board, except there's no evidence of actual mining from the company. Paycoin even had a large cult of followers/forum. Eventually, it fell apart. I believe the same thing will happen to QTUM. Maybe it will happen around August, 2017. First, there will be lots of excuses and no substantial proof of development, etc etc. And then the final blow will be a pump by the whales to lure in more dumb investors. Learn from history, dudes.

Second, since the Chinese market is their main victim, these people don't hold btc and eth as much as Westerners do. Their exchanges basically pair crypto with fiat (CNY), unlike the Western exchanges which pair altcoins with either eth or btc.

Press Update:

NewsBTC.com reports on our opening 2 days, and how the Qtum project raised 12 million dollars.

The month-long Qtum crowdsale, which went underway on March 16, 2017 has received tremendous response from the cryptocurrency community. The platform has managed to raise almost 90 percent of the required funds in less than 2 days. The very first day saw investors pumping in about $12 million worth of bitcoin and ether to meet 75% of the goal. The Qtum platform has raised over 10000 BTCs and 68200 ETHs by selling close to 46 million QTUM tokens.

Blockchain technology has gained a lot of traction in the recent days as companies across industries are looking into adopting it. The increased demand, followed by innovation in the blockchain sector has given rise to platforms like Qtum. Qtum’s innovative smart contracts technology has received validation of consumer demand through its ongoing crowdsale.

The Qtum platform has raised over 10000 BTCs and 68200 ETHs by selling close to 46 million QTUM tokens.

Qtum is a decentralized applications platform that combines a modified Bitcoin Core infrastructure with an intercompatible Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). By doing so, Qtum combines the best of both platforms — Bitcoin’s unfailing blockchain and endless possibilities offered by Ethereum smart contracts.

The developers of Qtum platform aim to provide an end-to-end multi-platform blockchain solution to cater to a range of applications across devices. These breakthrough capabilities are made possible by eliminating the need for specialized heavy software to create, deploy and operate the smart contracts.

The specialty of Qtum combined with its potential applications in low storage environments like mobile, phones, IoT applications etc., has turned it into an attractive investment for the cryptocurrency community.

The increased demand for QTUM tokens among the community has forced the platform to reallocate crowdsale tokens between exchanges. The three participating exchanges, Yunbi, BTC9 and Allcoin have been allocated additional QTUM tokens to meet the demand. According to the latest blog post, Yunbi has been allocated an additional 3 million tokens, 1.2 million to BTC9 and 500,000 to Allcoin. The extra allocation doesn’t affect the total number of tokens created by the platform has it is kept constant.






We are now past the Early Bird discount phase, moving onto the 1st week discounts.  We are less than 8% away from reaching our target of 51 million sold tokens.

I think qtum is a scam and users should participate in other ICO's instead

I spoke with Joe (not Josh; Joseph Mordica) of GAW during its nascent stage, and he share with me over the phone the exact location of one of GAW's warehouse which he owned in Hattiesburg, Mississippi (nobody knew this at the time). I was/am very, very familiar with Hattiesburg, so I asked him how close was the tornado to his warehouse a few years earlier, where he replied with having no knowledge of a tornado that passed literally within blocks of his place destroying that part of town. I presented the facts back then and people still put in millions. Crazy fucks!

still have some coin left.. it's almost finished.

There's not much hype of this project. Still it has managed to collect millions.
I mean, hype like other famous projects.

How can we ensure that all investments are real and not made by the team?

Also, it is strange that some people are investing in Ethereum. If they exchange Ethereum to Bitcoin and then invest they would get greater number of Qtums.

yes people can get more Qtum if they invest in BTC, since Ethereum is pump now.

so this is my first post here, its going to be a long one.
Ive been watching this board for months now and im a huge fan and supporter of the cryptocurrency scene but there are a few "new" tendencies that really scare me.

the beauty about cryptocurrency was that its a new and decentralized and some time even open source kind of movement. its not about politics and connection, its the techies, the programmers and the comunity shaping the future.

then the big bitcoin rise started people aparently got rich with investing small sums, and now i get a different vibe. this should be anti system or atleast a parallel world where people make new choices and bring in technologies that change the world. but its going in an old and strange direction where people like ver and buterin are treated like some kind of messias, people jump onto something because these guys are involved?

forbes news are beeing used as a proof of how good a ico is? icos are luring the comunity intelligence with bounties and all i read are either hateful anti comments or just plain advertisment?!

there are some serious information in this thread that this ico is a scam and the posts just get ignored? i really hope people start to calm down and really use their head again instead of getting greedy for fast and big money!

just my 2 cents!

[tippytoes]

This project is really one of a kind. One of a kind in terms of deceiving people.  Ok they almost got already what they wanted. But I'll just wait for the time when those people who invested will cry because of this big time deceit.

I have the same sentiments as you. thats e whole main point about this new technology.

[stackoverflow]
