Not %99 of the coins but all of the coins including bitcoin have been accused of being scam but there is proof provided only for %1.

OP has the point.

mods or admins should implement rules, if called out, then usr must provide proof.

NO, sorry but in this industry it needs to be guilty until proven innocent, because the fact of the matter is that the vast majority of cryptos are scams, let's not pretend that is not the case.

Hmm i disagree . Sometime it is too clear it is a scam that we would no need any proof . And i am sorry with all that happening around and all that amount

of money got scammed people have all the right to call every coin/token a scam until proven they are not . because simply this coin/token is taking our

money they have to proof they are legit and we have the right to call them scam and if they are really legit they will not get butthurt and they will just

proof they are legit .  So ya i think  in fact there should be a rule every coin/token is scam until proven not Cheesy , just kidding but man almost 90% of coins

token out there is created just to milk money .

The idea of posting the word scam here are mostly was to create a subconscious on people mind on how to blackmail bitcoin and others crypto currencies. Though we have alot of scammers but is very bad for people to be posting scam word on every thread.

I agree that people shouldn't use the word scam without giving a somewhat decent explanation for it, but I certainly wouldn't go as far to implement a rule for it.
What do you mean by proof btw? I think it should be enough if they just give an reason why they think it's a scam.

proof? anonymous devs, anonymous investors, anonymous transactions, no regulation, no accountability, ... i'm not against any of that but

proof in the true sense would be almost impossible.

corroborating or highly suggestive events that demonstrate wide open opportunity for gross manipulation is enough, the onus is on them to appear clean at least and minimise their opportunity for unfair manipulation

if they gear things to make it easy for them to manipulate then it is wide open for scamming and is a highly probable scam else why gear it that way

I agree with you, too soon to judge an ICO project with the word SCAM, while the project has not been expanded yet

90% of them are scams.
So yeah you are going to hear it ALL THE TIME !

You are scammers too.. because the scams could not be here with out your support.
So what we have hear is a piece shit sack of loser begging us to quit bad mouthing his..
digital pyramid scheme coin profits.

You all (the majority) just want people to stop calling out the profiteers scammy shenanigans.
So you can keep making a bit off money off them.

Learn how to trade noob morons.
Learn how to make money off of legit coins.

Technically this topic is a scam.  Cheesy
You are trying to smooth over garbage that should be called out as scammy.
That in of itself is "scammy".

Want some advice ?
Learn how to use a toilet ya little fuckin' pajeets !



And yeah "proof" is there but you all CHOOSE to ignore it.. for profits.

Hell i doubt most of you can even comprehend basic grade 5 English let alone an explanation of how a digital economy cryptography computer programming system is "rigged" in an unfair way via code or ideology.

It simply roars over your kidiot investard brat heads like a jumbo jet giving you a haircut.

Stick to posting topics here NON STOP asking for advices on which profits coinz to buy on teh exchangers fer teh ROI'z.

FUD first & ask questions later™

You do have a point but you cant stop people of saying scam into a particular thing or coin if they saw somethings wrong on that coin. Sad to say that all of us do really have that kind of trait which if we can feels not right we do eventually call it scam or on other way you do say scam when other people said so and you do go with the flow. Posting proofs should really be required because this kind of false information would really affect a certain thing.

No doubt "scam" is one of the most used words over this forum, people use it to attack projects they don't agree with, it does not mean anything for me, someday Ethereum, Lisk, Stratis, ....... were "scams", but when the price moved up, they turned into legit coins.  Smiley

What do you mean by proof btw? I think it should be enough if they just give an reason why they think it's a scam.
The reason is a hard thing to detect. I mean, how can we say whether the reason is sufficient for a coin to be called a scam? It is easier to tell with casinos, where certain facts may show that something is wrong. As for coins, I think any coin can hardly be called a scam. I mean, the coin has its code and it does work in some way. Perhaps a coin may be called a scam only in case someone holds around 70% and so can dump everybody. But then again, fiat is fully centralized and controlled but nobody says it's a scam.

This a goos one. But I see the word SCAM also if the price goes lower.

Learn how to trade noob morons.
Learn how to make money off of legit coins.


This x1000, you could have made millions, and still can, just by doing your research and investing in coins that are building towards an actual use case and don't have centralized distributions.  But no, people would rather buy scams and hope that The Greater Fool Theory makes them money.
