Just a warning that MANTA is a scam and people should not donate unless they are feeling generous in providing a scammer money.. This is the same person/people who just posted the stone scam, as they were quite successful, they figured - hey why not again.

Any REAL evidences that they are the same people? Otherwise, it may be considered as the lie.

As far the evidences, here is a recent one on the azulik coin: https://imgur.com/a/efuoh

Before asking for Donations, Show to donators Manta coin Github so they can follow your coding progress.

Thank you for this information. These type of people are the ones killing and making  look as if ICO is a scam. We need to continue to expose all of them and publish their evil report to all  public sites and social media.

LOL they donate for garbage token , Nice scam exit.


Hey everyone!

We're making a quick update post to notify you all of a change regarding the process of receiving MANTA for donators.

Due to many requests, we've decided to utilize an ERC-20 Token on the Ethereum Network, with the conversion of 1 MantaToken "MNTA" being swap-able for 1 MANTA when wallets are released. We will make sure the swapping process is as simple and easy to understand as possible.

If you've donated, to receive your MantaToken's, simply PM us your Ethereum address, and we'll send the appropriate MantaToken's, as well as instructions as to how to view your custom token.

We recommend using MyEtherWallet as it's the easiest and simplest way to view and receive your MantaToken's.

Note that due to potential PM restrictions, we may not be able to reply as fast as we'd like to, though we'll make sure everyone receives their MantaToken's as well as the proper instructions to utilizing them.

As for an update in regards to Manta itself, our network tests have shown promising results, and we're working to get Manta as close to completion as possible.

Best Regards,

Brian, Jason, and Nikhil

This is difficult but I am considering investing as I would love to get into a coin based on XRB but I have no way of knowing if it's actually legit or not. Perhaps I should just wait for the captcha.

i can see that this is the type of scam where the scammer feels like they are doing nothing wrong.  They try to make everything legit, maybe spend a little time on the project then give up.  I dont know much about STONE, but this seems like this scammer is doing it for the first time and the scammer may have a conscience.  E.g. he created some infographics, a shitty whitepaper and distributed some worthless ERC20 tokens.

But I believe that he needs to do these things because in his eyes he is not a scammer when the project fails.

PS.. he just muted the thread so noone can comment any longer.  He has got his money.. and now investors cant even write in the thread lol.

This requires people with a lot of experience to expose the projects that cheat investors and maintain the healthy development of the blockchain.
