Hello,

Recently I was planning to invest some coins into STORM (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2006999.0)

But then I notice they totally fucked their bounty program (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2005611):

They allocated 50,000,000 STORM for the bounty campaign. But recently they've changed counting system from STAKED to TOKENS. This mean they want to pay 1000x less!!!

IMO this is first sign of pure scam behavior and I will not trust them my hard earned coins.

One of my responses

From my communication with @stormtoken, they will return Stakes as bounty counting and the whole mess is some team miscommunication.

IMO this is the right move to do the things right. I'm not in the Bounty campaign, but I'm always looking for red flags before investing.

And @STROM response:

Hi everyone!

I am really sorry for all of the confusion regarding our especially lengthy bounty campaign! We could not thank you enough for your continued support of our project. Without all you guys, the widespread exposure we have received would not have been possible.

I want to clarify a miscommunication on our end, an error that I take responsibility for. In the bounty program, Tokens=Stakes.

For everyone that has been worried that they would not be fairly rewarded for their time and effort, I hope this clears things up. If you have direct questions, feel free to PM or message me on Telegram

As this is solved, I'm closing the topic now.

Yes dear, I am confused about this storm project. A long time running this storm project. But they couldn't any ICOs yet. I don't understand about this project planned.
It's really good project or scam project.

So if you get paid from this ICO it's legit ?
What about if the coin is coded and rigged to make the dev millionaires like it says on the ANN ?
Matter ?

You all don't have the faintest clue what a scam is.. nor do you read the scam section here i bet.

FUD first & ask questions later™

But now im having second thoughts. Amd probably think of not investing. Because i don't wanna lose my hard earned money :/

Wow that sucks. That's super shady! I'd definitely be wary of putting any money into it.

Too bad for the users who participated in that campaign, . I think the campaign is almost 4 months now. Why they change the payments into tokens per week , instead of stakes. That is no good for their supporters.

This is second time I've seen in the past couple of weeks ... Changing the rules as the campaign is winding down.  The other was Bowhead Health.  Neither of the companies will ever get a cent from me, BCT members should boycott.

Yeah I read about this in their discord chat. To be honest, very disappointed with the way they have responded to their bounty participants. Very unprofessional and greedy of them.

Sounds exactly like a scam. Thanks for the information I'm glad this is now public information. Hopefully their coin doesn't go too far now they have tried to trick the public already

Stake means people share the total tokens-1.5M tokens according to the stakes, each stake gets same amount of tokens. But tokens means they get the exact amount per week.

let always do personal research before concluding that an ICO is a scam,they have issues with the bounty not the ICO dont think it nice of you to  condemn there project, thou it not nice they change the pattern of payment for there bounty.

i think either they are going to fool people or they are having problems.. they postponed the ico, thinking it's a nice idea?? if i were going to invest in this company, i would have changed my mind because of this delay.. it's very suspicious..

indeed it's not nice.. unfortunately almost all the devs and managers are not very polite and respecting when it comes to bounty participants, of course we don't give them any money, but we give them time. and only a person who has never participated in any bounty campaign thinks it's not time consuming at all.. i wonder what would they do without us.. how much would they have to pay to pr agencies, and real money.. just sad.. i have been participating in this program for almost two months, maybe more, and now they are changing the payment rates.. wtf..
