Good catch. Can you please arrange the photos like two photos in one row? I mean 1 Germancoin whitepaper photo and beside it the Swisscoin whitepaper photos so that people can easily identify it. Just add custom photo size and keep the links alongside.

Guys,

our whitepaper is based on this, thats right, but it is in detail different!
This approach is to be fast and efficient, and to boost the project!
So I think you cannot tell it "plagiarism"!

Still you all copy all Swisscoin white paper and change the project name to GermainCoin, to be honest you don't have your own concept.
And the appearance of the website is so unpleasant to look at.

Indeed, copying others idea word for word is definitely fast and efficient approach to create your project. The question is why do we need your project if it has no difference from what was already built?
Your project is not "based" on swisscoin, you just copypasted swisscoin project goals, economic model, distribution model, even technology part. Literally, you stole theirs ideas and thoughts.

As said our whitepaper is based on this, thats right, but it is in detail different!
We used it as a good example for us with the approach to be fast and efficient, and to boost the project!
We are at the beginning and are continuing to improve!
The Whitepaper will be improved and also our Webside will be revised, but it takes time.
Maybe we will be finished by the end of the year with that finetuning, be patient with us in this case, THX, GCX

Very good catch @OP. Would give you some merit, if I had some.

This is actually a pretty lame excuse. You copy & pasted most of the paper. You didn't even care to do it good - the wording is bascially the same and you just changed some numbers. No one will fall for this and no one will believe your excuses. You tried to fool us here and you failed.

What do you mean by improving the White Paper. You should write your own paper and not improve a paper of someone else. Your paper doesn't need a "finetuning", you need to have own ideas. You basically copied another project, that's all.

Really, you copied the whitepaper as you think it is waste of time and your main focus is to collect the money from the ICO of german coin.  

Also the name of the coin, German coin gives the impression it is coin of germany.    You cannot fool here as we already know millions of shit projects like these.

This is nonsense!, it is of course from Germany and it is a registered brand in Germany!
Sorry for that!

It’s clearly showing that the white paper is copied from other project's whitepaper. It’s really a shady practice. Any legit project does not do like this. @GermanCoin_GCX you should give more care/efforts  of your project.

If you are really a registered company. So why did you copy the whitepaper from another project? Print money with ico has been closed.  People are no longer fool. Do something original, excluding scam thinking.

Maybe they thought that they will copy paste the white paper and other stuff and start a signature campaign and would easily make some money and fool people to make them believe it is a genuine coin. All I can see is they are saying is that we just started and will improve with time. They shouldn't have started the project marketing if they do not had the complete product ready yet.

[GermanCoin_GCX]

To repeat, we are a registered brand amd our wp it is not a copy, we were just inspired from the other one, like from many others sources!
Our Whitepaper is the base of our project with the goal to accomplish it.
Regarding ICO, yes we thought about it but we never did an ICO!

[bullrun2024bro]

But your website says otherwise, lol. It clearly states "Token Sales", you even accept PayPal as a payment. What lie are you trying to sell us here?



In addition to that it doesn't matter if you are a registered brand in Germany or not. You clearly plagiarized a white paper of a different project. I wouldn't trust you a single euro.

One lie after the other. Maybe they need some experience to scam even  
They thought of an ICO but they have clearly written on their site to contact them via DM, if anyone wants to buy their token. Now how will they defend that ?

According to what you are saying, i can wake up tomorrow with few fellows, duplicate the layout and content of the New-York Times, call it the Gotham Times, print and start selling my genuine magazine.
If someone complaint about me plagiarizing the New-York Times, then i will say: be patient sir, we are hardworking on creating our own articles and brand, it's like the NY Times but ain't the same thing. We have an original concept, just buy and you will discover it later.
Wait i forgot, your whitepaper -which is the same as Swisscoin's is the base of your project. So Swisscoin is the base of your project. Just basic math.

Yeah. This is an easy way to gain trust and print more money. But now everyone know about their intention. I've seen lot of scams like this. They start marketing right after everything is ready. But when they are caught by any member they say they are still working. This is nothing new. Those involved with Plagiarism never admit that they copied it from anyone else.

I think you should renew your whitepaper and write it yourself, not plagiarizing from other projects.

I've seen you have done BTC and ETH giveaways on your Twitter Account and I don't think you have bad intentions but considering your plagiarized whitepaper, how serious should people take your coin if you can't write a whitepaper yourself (of the coin you are proud to present)??!!

Our Whitepaper is the base of our project with the goal to accomplish it.

Your whitepaper should be the most important part and if it's plagiarized from another project, I can't take such projects seriously. At least a Shitcoin.

Maybe I'll consider to change my negative trust to neutral if you deliever a clean, new whitepaper.

[bullrun2024bro]

I also opened a thread in the German subsection to inform the German community about this possible scam attempt. Several members are already supporting your flag @$crypto$. Good work! Thumbs up!

Luckily some managers don't accept their offer to become a bounty manager so this will be a bad repuitation for a manager if you take this step.
Copying white paper with no concept at all you completely white paper copied from Swisscoin then I think you need to think hard to build the right project do not copy.

People will not believe in your project.
