LATEST: Update on AUTHORSHIP (ATS) [NEWEST!!! OCTOBER 21, 2017]

[Qpeep]

I think there is a lot of FUD going on on this, many people have received their tokens, especially the bounty hunters. I didn't, but that was an airdrop.

the payments go on and the course will increase. I think I will still buy some token at etherdelta before the people notice it and all want to buy

[HippiePyro]

I still have not received any tokens nor did my referrals. Pretty shady move from the devs. And they want to talk about cheaters? Simply not talking to your community is cheating them, let alone the promised tokens

[jakezyrus]

They replied to a comment on their page post (https://www.facebook.com/authorshipcom/posts/1313988812056308) that it will be listed on an exchange next week.


I'm hoping that it will be something like Bittrex or Poloniex.

OCTOBER 5, 2017

I messaged them and look what I received. Don't worry, I don't care, I am not anonymous. My profile is public and I have nothing to hide. Even my username is all over the web. XD

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ICO Regulation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2058499.msg21529469#msg21529469

...
As I mentioned previously, it won't affect us. US doesn't want to block all ICOs, the issues are with the ones that fall under "securities". As long as a token is being meant to be used as a currency, there are no issues.
...

Bittrex: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2058499.msg21581558#msg21581558

...
Our aim is to get listed on Bittrex first. We approached them and already did all the account verification they required us to do, but now they need for the ICO to be over first and the tokens distributed.
...

Poloniex: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2058499.msg21803823#msg21803823

...
We also contacted Poloniex but they want to see the ICO is over first.
...

ALSO, VOTE IF YOU RECEIVED ATS OR NOT

thanks for the info. thats a good news to us who recieved their ats token , i guess will have to wait until the end of the month or before the year ends if they would reallt do that and list their token on a better exchanges like bittrex or poloniex in order for us to exchange it with a satisfying value. lets just hope that the price of ats token would get pump soon.

i was always in ATS for the long term, im hoping that they stick to the original plan and the platform is launched in a beta around Christmas time!

[Grim149x]

I hope so too that they will stick to the plan though they spent more ATS to bounty hunters and the ATS reserved for authors are used.

Dear Authorship.com,

WTF are you currently doing with our investment funds? An update on why we invested in you and what your plans are would be the least you can do having managed to get many investors to buy into your ICO.
Please would you give a little assurance you're not using the money for penis extensions, gender realignment surgery, face lifts for your wives or are you actually doing something constructive with the funds?

Any little announcement will do, no need to play mute for this long, the internet is a very accessible medium for a 2 minute job.

Yours sincerely,
A Pissed Off Investor.

Nice try, but it won't work. They have some special e-mail for investors, try to use it. I'm not sure it is something like investor@authorship.com . If you are invested real funds to the platform they must answer to you! By the way, ask them please- were is mine 75ATS!!!

[Grim149x]

From Authorship:

...Also, I see many mentioned we did not pay people who had 75 ATS tokens, I think you even quoted such a message yourself. This is not true, if you check the token holders list, there are almost 5,000 people who have 75/80/85 ATS tokens (last 100 pages: https://etherscan.io/token/0x2dAEE1AA61D60A252DC80564499A69802853583A#balances)

There are over 12,000 token holders, if some still want to call us a scam, it's their choice. We've heard back from 90%+ of the investors and none care about this. Our focus is on developing the project we raised money for...

[TheCryproMaster]

Hey Grim thanks for sharing the info.

Its great they did pay out some people, but why haven't they paid the rest of the legit bounty hunters? They run out of funds?

[Minecache]

I think they are guilty for not clear statement during airdrops. And this is the only they did wrong.

[fedor3327]

The bounty campaign for ATS was really not well thought out I am afraid. I have noticed that this is a common problem with bounties. Interestingly the Gladius campaign has added something slightly different in that the also will be committing to BTC weekly payments payable at the end of the sale. All except FB is asking for a Bitcoin forum account to be associated. This is a clever way to stop cheaters. I predict that as this cheating continues more and more verifications to stop the cheaters will be necessary.

I believe the ATS is an excellent investment. That the company will prosper and that the "real" investors to the project will benefit hugely in the end.

[toddy47]

I will not be buying any ATS once it hits the exchanges as I have lost all confidence in this project. I referred half a dozen people, and neither me or any of them received our tokens.

I had planned on buying $100 worth for a 12 month hold, but I will be instead putting that into SONM.

[Winner]

when you cheat others, this is what you get bellend

What's the whole commotion? Investors and developers dump coins everyday of the week, why would this one be different against the early ones?

Yeah I saw that in the token holders.  Just checked and looks like Im still in the top 140 richlist, planning on trying to go for top 100, but Id need to get 5x the tokens I have now.. So people are defiantly buying, as I've slipped down about 10 places since I last checked.

So there are 4400 people with 75/85 tokens (from page 154 to 242) were paid.

You realize that each person with more than 75/85 tokens may have several/dozens of/hundreds of referrals with 75/85 tokens? The 75 level must take 50% or more of the number of participants, but here we have only 4400 over 12000 people?

The truth is they allowed a bounty fund much bigger than the announced 1 mil tokens, thinking they would filter out a lot of people later. In the end they spent 8 mil tokens to pay people from high to low numbers of tokens (there were many multiple time payments, but it's NOT that everyone was paid 8 times) but that 8 mil was not even enough, so they gave up and just ignored most people with low amount of tokens.

The 4400 figure is simply not realistic. For about 8 mil tokens (or 4 mil, or even only 2 mil), the actual number of people with 75/85 tokens must be MUCH BIGGER than that.

So their answer is just an attempt to fool people from the fact that most people with low amount of tokens (especially 75) haven't been paid.

Anyway, a whole lot of legit people completed the withdrawal form but haven't been paid as they promised in their email on Sep 18. (See the poll result, though this poll is unfair: 1. Its title is deceptive, all investors were paid so they would say 'yes'; 2. Newbies are not allowed to vote. Most people with low amount of tokens may not even have a bitcointalk account.) How can they run from that? Or do they intend to be LYING COWARDS FOREVER?

[Slowhand26]

I read some where that the reserved tokens for authors have been partially used due to this issue. Is that true?. I am wondering how it was used. Let say there are scammers. Even there are lot of scammers, all those who participated with airdrop will only be sharing with 1M ATS. Could someone correct me?. Thank you

They used about 8 mil tokens from the reserved tokens for authors to pay bounty people but that was not even enough.

The truth is they allowed a bounty fund much bigger than the announced 1 mil tokens, thinking they would filter out a lot of people later. In the end they spent 8 mil tokens to pay people from high to low numbers of tokens (there were many multiple time payments, but it's NOT that everyone was paid 8 times) but that 8 mil was not even enough, so they gave up and just ignored most people with low amount of tokens.

[romeo111]

Ats not pay the bounty reward, every bounty hunters scammed.

This is not really true. I've received my reward just like the friend of mine. Maybe some cheaters didn't receive any indeed. But I'm sure that ATS is not scam.

Yes dear, you are right. i agree with you. because already i had get some ATS coins in my wallet.
So i am happy to say that ATS is not a scam project.
