Another pure scam project who have stolen other people identities. I don’t think they used any picture of their own on team section. Just like other garbage who have no ability to create whitepaper, team and project roadmap. All they can do is copy/paste or stealing contents from other project. Anyway, you may take a look on their whitepaper and i think you will find plagiarism there.

With the reference of this topic you can create a flag against this project and include the flag link on main topic. Scammer profile tagged from my end.

Hi, thanks for sending their ANN thread! Most likely, he deleted his topic under the bounty section that's why the link is inaccessible.

Unfortunately, a number of projects proliferated and they are attempting to scam by using stock photos or stolen identities. I find their efforts highly amusing but I do hope that investors do not fall on to these projects. Like what you said, I'll be flagging them now!

Hi, just addressing this issue from inside of here as well, there is no scam involved at all, we are building exactly what we want to build. We want the possibility for people to buy and sell precious metals with cryptocurrencies, and vice versa which will create a nice hedge for some people who feel it is safer to be in Gold or Silver rather than USD or BTC.

We have been working on this for the last year and this was an issue caused by our web developer, it was sorted out as soon as possible as we were frustrated that they had used another cryptocurrencies team members template which obviously turned out to not be who they said they were.

But as I said in the other post, we are happy to answer any questions and squash this idea of a scam project and the next few weeks will be detrimental for our purpose to go further:
The seemless swapping between any liquid cryptocurrency into gold or silver and moving on to include platinum, copper, palladium and rhodium after the functionality is confirmed with the original setups.

We can apologise, but sorry the issue was the web developer was using someone else's template and they were going to be adjusting the team members to the correct ones and was only like that whilst the website was up and down continuously for 2 to 3 days prior. This did cause a lot of confusion in amongst us in the team as well as people who know the project team and were like "only James is on there" but yes, noone else who works here was on the website at that point.
We never meant to cause confusion, didn't expect to start getting much web traction until October when our actual cryptocurrency to precious metals exchange goes live with the yield farms for staking the BLC and getting BLCGold or BLCSilver rewards in returns. The solidity smart contracts are just being coded and hopefully will have further information regarding these things in the near future. We are aiming for release date of 14th October.

The website is currently still being completely revamped ready for all of this and the team members will be added to a new section in the coming weeks also. We are a small team with 3 of us in Wolverhampton, England with additional team members and developers in San Francisco. These will all be named upon release.

We have a hell of a lot of things happening behind the scenes which will take us further.

Only 200,000 tokens will be possible to be bought from VinDax during these 2 IEO rounds. That in addition to the airdrop tokens and early investors, the circulating supply on release will be approximately $666,000 but depending upon how small amount gets purchased on VinDAX.

We are also in discussions and have agreements with a few different gold trading companies and precious metals funds which will be providing liquidity for our exchange.

If you have any further questions, please contact ourselves and we will gladly assist with any concerns.

Thanks
BullionsChain

This "web developer" excuse has been used by almost every project busted for having fake team members, no one will buy that explanation anymore.

You said that it was sorted as soon as possible, but almost 1 month later you are still using stock photos and cartoon picture for your team members. How do you explain that, since you said it was sorted and it was lazy web developer who caused all the issues?

Cartoon "CEO" picture doesn't need any explanation, but look at "Neque porro". Yet again stock photo. Why do you even put any team member photos and share website if it's  not ready yet. What's the hurry? Or if you decide to put them anyway, why not share real team member photos?

We are a small team with 3 of us in Wolverhampton, England with additional team members and developers in San Francisco. These will all be named upon release.

Don't forget your team in Nairobi Wink
And your other projects like nandela.com and mekapaygroup.tech

Also, don't forget to fix your website, I understand that an about us page should be revealing stuff about you, but not his kind of stuff:

DB_PORT"3306"
DB_DATABASE"cryp<>"
DB_USERNAME"cryp<>"
DB_PASSWORD"9hV<>"


Cartoon "CEO" picture doesn't need any explanation, but look at "Neque porro". Yet again stock photo.

I've yet to hear of a guy with that name, it sounds cool both pronouncing it and as what it means. But, I guess the Latin language is slowing being forgotten
Neque porro another scam!!!! Grin Grin Grin Scamitus retardus lazyusus!

We have been working on this for the last year

These guys have done zero research to see if there is any coins/tokens using BLC ticker and considering BlakeCoin is on CoinMarketCap its poor show!

Caveat Emptor  Shocked Roll Eyes

Edit (updated):
I have also posted and tweeted this too hopefully anyone doing some basic research should find this issue and not get confused between the two!  Cheesy

Spoke with James of BullionsChain Team via Telegram at length about the ticker issue and they agreed to release a official statement to clarify: https://twitter.com/BullionsChain/status/1315954973105098752?s=19

just to be clear I dont think its a good idea to have tickers that clash with other network/projects its not allowed for trademarks/stock symbols for a good reason regardless of if your on same exchanges or tech!  

after all it is going to cost lot of time/effort/money(crypto or fiat) to make a successful project launch especially with some of the goals they speak of  

my team has contacted some of the coin/token tracking sites/apps/services about this to point out the issue, for example Delta incorrectly reports trades/vol for BullionsChain on Blakecoin some of the others only support one while cmc or cg support multi with same ticker.

I have also advised them to slow down and get a handle on these issues than rush a release as it is triggering Major red flags for many in the crypto community!
