What happened:I was a participant of LiveTree - ADEPT bounty campaign. I sent about 700 post in 22 weeks according the rules. Weekly campaign rates are below: Weekly Campaign Rates :- Members : $5 per post (in SED tokens) / Members are not accepted anymore
- Full members : $25 per post (in SED tokens)
- Senior members : $35 per post (in SED tokens)
- Hero members : $40 per post (in SED tokens)
- Legendary members : $55 per post (in SED tokens)
I’ve earned $22,050 at the end of campaign. They sent me 36425,4287 SED tokens that is equal $4.200. (1 ETH = 6,071 SED, 1 ETH = $700) Scammer Profile Link:Campaign manager: Sylon, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=112240CEO of Livetree: Ashley.Livetree, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1203211Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2322644.0Amount Scammed: $22,050 (overall $1,085,840) Payment Method: Personal effort Proof of payment:Line 57 on https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aggPcVvuYU1jJ9P4BSFf7czri2RqWqc1Q7VegnnENHA/edit#gid=2080230004Additional Notes:Livetree is in the film industry. Their job is Right Management. I think, they can not manage any rights. There are 289 participants in the campaign. They have distributed $208,800 instead of $1,085,840. The campaign manager is ignore all participants’s questions. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2322644.msg36329264#msg36329264https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2322644.msg36395106#msg36395106https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2322644.msg36703894#msg36703894I’ve talked Ash and Lennard from Livetree. They didn’t offer any solution. And they have banned me from Telegram Channel. And I just wonder, did Sylon get exact amount on the contract signed between Livertree and him. If he didn’t get, I am going to remove red trust from his profile. Buy-back guarantee violation:The buy-back price guaranteed at 1000 SED = 1ETH from day 1. Right now buy-back price is 6071 SED = 1ETH This bounty campaign is based on a BBB (Bounties Buy Back) model: a portion of the bounties tokens that will be distributed through this campaign will be purchased back, at ICO price, after the token sale end.
50% of the SED tokens from the bounty campaign will be purchased back, in exchange of ETH. Note: All dollar values are approximate and depend on ETH exchange rate. Note': Bounty is only available after the min. raise has been met which is approx. $1.5m
There is a sliding scale so you will always get a guaranteed buy-back for every $100 backed $1 is available for bounty buy back.
The buy-back price is guaranteed at 1000 SED = 1ETH.
Thus, bounty campaign participants can be paid in SED or SED + ETH, the choice is up to you.

As has been said repeatedly:
March 12 blog post, when the ratio for supply was adjusted https://medium.com/@LiveTree/repositioning-seed-token-buyers-to-power-the-market-ba000316b05e
This retroactively changed the price for all participants to: - Pre-sale 1 SED = 0.0000825 and 1 eth = 12,142 SED
- Main sale 1 SED = 0.000165 and 1 eth = 6,071 SED
The initial ratio on bounty was set at investor rate intentionally. This changed retroactively to match investor ratio.
EVERY SINGLE INVESTOR WHO BOUGHT IN THE SALE HAS THOSE RATIOS. RETROACTIVELY. SO DOES BOUNTY.
Why should bounty participants get 6 x the value of investors for their SEED?

Only SED’s price is changed. It is not related to the campaign rates. Campaign rules are clear, and the rates are based on USD. And the rates have not changed during the campaign. Please check this: Weekly Campaign Rates :- Members : $5 per post (in SED tokens) / Members are not accepted anymore
- Full members : $25 per post (in SED tokens)
- Senior members : $35 per post (in SED tokens)
- Hero members : $40 per post (in SED tokens)
- Legendary members : $55 per post (in SED tokens)
http://archive.is/e8OnzAlso, buy-back guarantee has not changed during the campaign. BTW, what is "guarantee” means? Please check this: ~snip The buy-back price is guaranteed at 1000 SED = 1ETH.

Dear Livetree.Adept, Which part of the opening post didn’t you get? I accept your new ratios. This is your decision. I don't care about it and there is no problem for me. I said, you haven't sent me correct reward. Also you haven’t sent others promised reward. And you or Sylon scammed us. Let me calculate my bounty rewards for you step by step. 1.I’ve earned $22,050 at the end of the campaign. Please check the spreadsheet. 2. $22,050 = 32.42 ETH. 3. If you want to use pre-sale ratio for bounty distribution, 32.42 ETH = 393.722 SED. 4. If you want to use main-sale ratio for bounty distribution, 32.42 ETH = 196.861SED. Is there any mistake above? Just tell me, why did you send me 36,425.4287 SED

- Pre-sale 1 SED = 0.0000165 and 1 eth = 12,142 SED
- Main sale 1 SED = 0.000165 and 1 eth = 6,071 SED
I've checked the ratio numbers. Actually, you may not be a scammer. I think, your team didn't take the math class ever. If during the pre-sale ratio is "1 SED = 0.0000165”, 1 eth is not equal 12,142 SED. You can buy 60,710 SED via 1 ETH. So you have to pay for me 1.968.218 SED. What a shame...

Livetree.Adept, care explaining clearly why BTCHakan only gained 36k SED, and how that is equal to $22050 USD? You seem to be pretty obviously in the wrong here, so I'm not sure what I'm missing. Even using ETH's ATH price of $1400, he would be owed 95k SED. I fail to see how 36k SED is at all close to what was promised.

I have similar situation, and I got even less tokens, I took part in this long campaign from the beginning.. I just had no time to focus on this.. There is still small chance that the LiveTree will organize Buy-Back and at least participants will get few bucks) Some other projects vanish completely, and they at least try to do or imitate the activities But probably you are right to make this post, so other will know that it's better not to work with these people in future

It has come to a point that something lingers on every mind, how are the admin of this in project are going to buy back those coins. We don't know exactly their purpose and intensions of deciding to buy this back, are they having plans of putting this to other biggest exchange or making the sed token value price dump prior being listed to the trading site. You're certain there will be a possibility that it will be vanish completely, and if people will not realize their strategy I think this token will come to an end as dead coin. Hopefully it won't because this project has a great potential to gain its price.

I also participated in the Livetree campaign and earned 13325 stakes ($) which were converted to 22012 tokens. Now, in their calculations, all for some reason use the current rate (1 ETH=~700$) forgetting that the same rate of ETH rose to ~1500$ and dropped to ~380$. Bitcoin is the same. Based on your logic, then you need to evaluate each purchase of tokens by investors based on the current rate of what is fundamentally wrong. Everyone forgets that one of the main conditions for the payment of bounty awards was: "Note': Bounty is only available after the min. raise has been met which is approx. $1.5 m". From official information: "The total raise was 1127.52868 ETH and 60.05277671 BTC." Consider the current rate (based on your logic): 1128ETH*713$=804264$ 60 BTC*8511$=510660$ 510660+804264=1314500$ rounding That is, the condition for the payment of 1.5 M is not achieved!!! Team Livetree went to meet the participants of the bounty and paid tokens (even if not as much as we wanted); the team does not abandon the BB.
Although I do not like the rate of repurchase but I understand that it can not be lower than the price paid by investors for their tokens. But if there are improvements for the participants of the bounty I'm IN! IMHO

Even though the rate per 1 SED is changed retrospectively but bounty amount offered in terms of dollars and not in terms of no of SED tokens
This means Dollar value is fixed and no of SED tokens is Variable element.
If the rate per 1 SED is changed retrospectively then bounty workers also need to receive their bounty with the same rate as what offered to investors.
For example If a bounty worker is need to receive reward for his work is 4000$ worth of SED tokens then as per the previous rates like 1000 SED = 1 ETH, the bounty worker has to receive 4000 or more as per ETH rates in force.
If the rates has been changed retrospectively like 1 ETH = 6071 SED means, in the above example the bounty worker is eligible to receive more than 24000 SED.
But in our case Live tree distributed SED tokens to us with old rates and they need to distribute the remaining tokens to us with new rates.
This should be done because they mentioned the change is with retrospective effect.

I participated in LiveTree signature campaign for 21 weeks and earned $ 20090. As a result, received only 33 187.61 SED. Full disappointment after such recalculation for a halfyear work.

Open bounty-topic and read: " You will receive 1.75% of all SED tokens, based on your number of stakes." You in their arguments rely on the fact that LiveTree have already received funds from the declared investors (3+10M $) but according to the statement of the LiveTree is not so. You can count on the award only from the total number of tokens (and it is better from the sold tokens). That is, only from the funds that are visible on the wallets (ETH+BTC). A screenshot of the progress status is a "little trick" to attract other investors. I repeat that I am neutral on this issue.

"Hard cap of the ico is 20m $ and bounty budget is %1.75 so it means 350k worth of tokens in case of hard cap.
%40 allocated to signature 140k worth.
And i just checked sylon gave more than 1.2m $ worth sed tokens to signature participants."
I posted this on bounty thread and sylon never make an explantion for this.
