John McAfee To Launch New Decentralized Exchange – McAfeeDex

[Xxmodded]

How many score you trusted with John McAfee developer? I heard about what have to buy last two years with ETN coin on pre sale, but after listing on market price down and the same with ICO, I never get any more about what he said because he just take moment to promote some ICO or altcoin.

He didn't support scam projects, but it was more that he charged pretty high prices for any random project to chuck his name on it as an advisor, and he didn't really do a lot of research or due diligence, and also never did any actual advising, while demanding pretty high prices (10 percent of token supply, etc).

I don't think he ended up supporting any scams, but I do think a lot of his projects flopped and he never did anything other than demand a high price just to plaster his name on it.

he advertised a ton of ICO projects where he got paid for that advertisement a very high fee and also alongside that he was pump and dumping some small shitcoins where he bought them up, advertised, pumped and then dumped the coins.
among all these there have been many that were actually pure scams. not to mention that if you closed your eyes and selected an ICO there was a good chance it was scam, so it is obvious many of them were advertised by McAfee.

I don't know but I think McAfee already lost his name in crypto industry.
I think only few believers would really take him seriously but most of us see him as a big joke in crypto community,
He has been destroying his name by making some prediction and most of those who believe him have lost some money for sure.

He got reduced reputation in cryptocurrency because he promoted most ICOs which could not perform up to expectations. Some followers of John McAfee turned to lose trust in his predictions due to the failed ICOs. However, who knows, perhaps his DEX exchange is going to be one of the best which will revolutionize the cryptocurrency DEXs.

John is a security system expert..  he is an Advisor & influencer.  HACKEN is one of the successful ICO projects that made John as their Advisor. cmiiw

Here you go:


Volume (24h) $1,115 USD
Everything that this guy touches will turn to be a failure.

Two years back he revealed that he charges $105,000 for each tweet promoting an ICO or any other cryptocurrency project. And HACKEN is not the only project that was promoted by this loser. One project that comes to my mind is BURST (market cap fell from $200 million to $7 million during 2018-19). He made millions of USD by promoting the shitcoins and at the same time users who invested in these scam projects pobably lost hundreds of millions of USD. Finally by mid-2018 he issued a statement that he has stopped promoting the ICOs, due to "threats from the Securities and Exchange Commission".

What's your take on this?

It's a joke. Don't waste time on it. I hope that he didn't use his own security knowledge on that DEX or else many user will gonna be fck up. But that will be gonna be a hit exchange since its gonna be McAfee certified dex.  

This article might enlighten you: https://medium.com/@mariochamorro/john-mcafee-crypto-recommendations-were-total-bullshit-let-s-see-the-numbers-2c59e88b64f5

lol at least i did not spend time reading the OPs link when in yours it was totally wrecked .as i don't really believe the serious thing when this man put good things inside the crypto just like how impossible he is expecting bitcoin to reached million dollar in couple of years or else he will be eating his parts

but maybe in future things might change if the balls comes to him and critics fails about his predictions who can say what will happen then

[virasog]

I think no way that McAfee can launch a decentralized exchange. In my opinion, it could be some joke. If he really launches an exchange, I don't give much chance for that to be successful.

https://mcafeedex.com/ is already been launched and you can see it for yourself. How well this exchange will perform, only the time will tell but  John McAfee has enough resources and marketing skills to make it successfull. If his anti virus is being used all over the world, what wrong with using his exchange ?

I don't think a single ICO of his has ever gotten their coin price back to what the coin price was at the time of ICO, most of those coins lost 50-80 percent of their value and all the investors got fucked over.

His antivirus has a bad reputation around some people due to it's intrusiveness (I believe it scans your websites, history and social media details if activated), only time will tell if the exchange will live up to his expectations.

You mean the pump and dump shilling expert John mcafee? I remembered the time when he recommended Electroneum and it got pump so high that even cryptopia got server lagged. Then a few mins later it got dump. Then when he said the verge (I can't remember the name) would reach $150 or something, it got pump then the moment he said it's $15, it got dump again. What an expert!

I wonder what he will do with his exchange now. Since DEX is a very trusted popular exchange nowadays, I think he's going to do his pump and dump coin shilling in his own exchange now for more profit. What a genius

Like John is the reason why all coins dump in the market, this is normal trend of most listed project on exchange nowadays, even those project that McAfee did not shill on still dump the very moment that they are listed, in this case will you blame the dev for the dump?
Electroneum had the chance to revive even after the dump but so far it hasn't been able to do so, the value of a coin depend largely on the dev and usability, I don't think John is the only reason why the project has not been able to perform.

Well in my opinion these decentralized exchanges should be run by people who are totally anonymous. The whole idea for these decentralized exchanges should be for them to operate without the interference from governments and regulators that want to enforce KYC/AML requirements.

So if it is well known that John McAfee is behind this project, then the governments can target him to force him to take it down, if they do not adhere to the government regulations. 

I would personally not trust a guy that was willing to sacrifice his own penis on a bet.

Launching of well developed dex is always a good news. McAfeeDex requires no name, no documents, no email, no bank info, nothing is recorded or monitored. Seems great. I have a double attitude towards John McAfee, but I don't want to put an end to this dex only because of his name.

[Mandoy]

It seems like Mcafee wants to earn more money. With Mcafees reputation crytpcurrency users will surely doubt this project. But I am not too sure since Mcafee have a huge bitcoin holdings from promoting altcoins. Also we dont know about his marketing strategies and its management. I want to doubt this one will succeed but I want to give some time for that exchange to improve itself and show us that we are wrong in criticizing it. I just hope that it will last long and will not close sooner.

An article on McAfee DEX Exchange, launching a barge, launch goals, why it was created by John McAfee, is published on

[coinfinger]

What does he really expect to come out of it when everyone already knows him for the kind of liar he is, and all those hype then was just because of this establishment, and if he has been manipulating people which people know, what assurance does he have that those things had not registered on many crypto users’ brain which will make them never to trust his dex, and I really doubt if Mcaffee would really come up with a full Decentralized exchange. 

Besides that anyway I really don’t think that his dex will function well because he would have a very low turnover, for now, I think that the hype of binance is still very much more than that of McAfee, and binance had opened its dex long time which till date, not many people have successfully been using it which is more like a failed project to me, so better he does not waste time on that.

[pixie85]

His reputation is worth shit at this point. I doubt he's still making money tweeting about shitcoins. You can only keep fooling people for a time.

No eating penis on national TV, then he was supposed to be hiding from the government, then he wanted to be a presidential candidate now he's starting an exchange. He's a drug addict an alcoholic and a liar. Nobody is going to trust him with big money.

[gabbie2010]

 John McAfee coins McAfeeDex will be the joke of the century this type of coin wouldn't survive the crypto market, we all know John McAfee as a gaffe  who spits all sorts predictions to gain attention I can't imagine investors that will invest their hard money in this shit coin that wouldn't stand the test of time based on the reputation of the owner except gullible investors who might banked on the hype of McAfeeDex by the owner.

What's your take on this?

To be truthful, I don't care John McAfee's ideas about the cryptocurrency market. And I didn't expect a move like this from McAfee. I am surprised but I think 'McAfeeDex' won't be successful.

[asus09]

Keep safe your investing with John McAfee have launch new exchange market called with McAfeeDex, did you remember how much money lost because allow what he said about some coin on ICO or trading, when he gives us recommendation to buy always price down, how about his exchange market McAfeeDex will be the same what have he said last several months? if I have money I will use for investing with other exchange market.

[thesmallgod]

what a brilliant move. He even name it his name. I really think most DEX today are really jokes. for the past two years, No single new dex has stand a test of time and they can not be compare to dex like etherdelta. Most of them will end up being close down when it becomes unsustainable to run the platform. poor development, continous server error, zero trading volumes are some of the problem associated with most new dex. Well there are some followers that monitor Mcafee up and down so maybe they will be making use of the platform.

I have visited this exchange but i feel still it’s development aren’t completed because all features working a bit slow. Overall looking are not bad. But McAfee created a lot of controversy in the previous year to promoting many shit and fishy projects but firstly huge number of people's followed his prediction and he earned huge reputation. But now he lost trustworthy for tge paid promotion. Whatever i hope this new DEX will be transparency. Most of the coins trading already started.

Old John the junkie? People should know better...

Some people say this guy is good for crypto cause of all the fuss he creates but that's one way of looking at it. The other is he's making people look at crypto entrepreneurs as junkies, drunkards and gambling addicts with a little bit of that good old libertarian gun culture. McAfee is getting boring. It was good while it lasted when he was giving interviews from inside his house smoking and drinking. He's got no more cards to put on the table.
