The developers are very lazy. They did not remove the photo of the site template. And thus they bring their project to unnecessary attention and accusations of scam.

[masulum]

Their domain expires in a few days, if they are serious about developing this project, then it will not happen. From 2018 until today they haven't changed their photo, are they too busy to take care of small things. Then, they only made the announcement yesterday, which is why I suspect the legitimacy of this project. Do you think this concern is still an unnecessary accusation?

[lovesmayfamilis]

No way. This just signals the absence of a normal command. If the site does not have a normal presentation, this only speaks of an attempt to quickly raise money and disappear.

[masulum]

Yes, that's the point, raised money before their domain expired (or maybe make a renewal) then they are disappearing as you say. Actually, when you say unnecessary attention and accusations of scam, I ask to myself, am I making a mistake to create this thread, to judge Picscoin as a potential scam project? Or, maybe I'm misunderstanding with your previous post.

btw, Thank you for your attention, do not hesitate to PM me, if I make a mistake when creating a scam accusation thread

Lol ,,,,Its a common ICO template and i am well introduced with this faces. I found multiple ICO projects who were using this template and tried to use these photographs as their own team.

Here is one of them, ★ Fake Team - No Whitepaper - Scam ICO - ARGETUM ★
