Seems like these guys who pre-mined the BitBars are posting sell offers that are really high. Then they make new accounts with like 10 posts offering to sell cheaper. People see that and think they are getting cheap bars so they buy.

Voted for both, because the poll said I could select 2 options. So I did.


This whole "BitBar" drama-saga has been most amusing to watch. Carry on! I'll bring the chips and beer as I watch it unfold...

That doesn't surprise me. Either he's really dumb and looking to build bitbar up, or a really smart troll/manipulator and looking for the opposite.

Then they make new accounts with like 10 posts offering to sell cheaper.

I sold about 500 LTC worth of FTC on the forums when the xchanges were running rampant.
Everyone I dealth with had about 30-50 posts.

A lot of new members, do have money.

Now I agree, if someone's going to scam, that is how they are going to do it(on a new account).

But I've done business with a handful of people and I've not been scammed once here, and most of them are/were ranked Jr. Member or less.

Premined means the coin was mined before public release. Only 60 BTB was premined by the author to test the network and he put them up as BOUNTY for the first BTB exchange.

Most al-coins were pre-mined hundreds of thousand of there coins to bribe exchanges to put there coins on there exchanges

0 False accusations made by me, provided evidence and mr_random hasn't provided his evidence, he's still a Shill in my eyes.

Keep trying to pump the value, everyone is saying the same thing in your threads, why you single me out? is this a witch hunt? LOL

It sucks, but it's not a scam.
It's different, learn to distinguish between the two.

Why do you single out mr_random? Where is your REAL evidence? Did you post evidence that he did not buy the bars?

LOL you again, if you don't understand I was being sarcastic with "why you single me out" as that's what you and others were saying on the callout thread.

Why you keep following me around?

Actually, I prefer provide to BitBar's "developer" an opportunity to spend some time while debugging. Just like any real developer does.
