not everyone visits btc talk thread...there are many people who probably don't even know it's a scam.

The same reason people are buying any alt-coin.  Developer or not, they are all pointless.

I wish I could disagree but it's harsh truth. People are blaming this & that but reality is all altcoins are pointless.

Hey guys  in this website there are some users who launches new coin every other month. When someone does it, he is apparently scammer and looking for short term benefits not a serious long term project. something tells me the dev of this coin right now launching another coin or gonna launch it in a few week. We have hundreds of coins and less than like 20 devs. Don't doubt. Btalk is heaven of scammers

That just shows that you have no idea what is happening in Crypto. The altcoins are the hart and soul, here is where real development and inovation takes place....not in BTC

Dear Coin Source,

You should release the video of you skyping with him. That way we at least know the person in the picture is involved in the scam and regardless of fake identities his face can be recognized.

Are any of these pictures of lukas real? We need to know what his face looks like and voice sounds like.

Why is the video not released?

Thanks

100% agree!

COIN SOURCE WHERE IS THE VIDEO OF THIS SCAMMER?

Truth is..this isn't the first time someone pulled a scam. There is already more than enough info released by coinsource so if you want to find him feel free to do so. It's not their job to babysit you. I'm sure it's hurting them more than it's hurting anyone who is talking shit about coinsource.

Crypto is only few years old...it can't be perfect..it'll take time.  They're doing what they can..releasing his info was kind of them..they didn't have to do it. Next time ..do more research before investing big time on a coin that has fancy graphic and logo.  Grin

and stop with red font

Please respond to the question I asked and dont make assumptions. I did not buy this coin.

I will try to find him with the information from coin source but it cannot be verified as it could easily be fake. So I will repeat my question:

COIN SOURCE WHERE IS THE VIDEO OF THIS SCAMMER?

Did you visit the address they posted?

I doubt they have video of that person and stop with red font please.

No, I am trying to find a friend that will be in that area. I will update when I can.

If they don't have a video, what does coin source have to offer? ID's, pictures and addresses are incredibly easy to fake.

They must have a video. Why won't they release it?


A couple things I think would be very beneficial for true POD/verification (in addition to what is already happening):

1. Video verification of the person behind the coin. This way no matter if they fake everything else, we have a video of his/her face and audio of what they sound like. Makes it very hard for a scammer to hide.
2. Address verification: user must provide a bill with their name and address on it. The verifier must call the company from the bill and verify it is a real bill.
3. ID verification: Contact the governmental authority to verify if an ID is real.

If a developer doesn't want to do these things then they have something to hide. If they really just "want" to be anonymous then they have to accept people questioning their agenda and obviously shoudn't be allowed to run an ICO (aka 100% premine).

I am interested in providing this service to the community. Are other people on board with this? Although I applaud their efforts, to me it seems cryptoasian and coinsource haven't done anything concrete to verify identities. Please let me know if this is something the community wants or if you think I'm wrong and where we can improve.

Thanks

Lets go back few weeks..shall we?

So..it was beautiful Sunday afternoon and I was enjoying my coffee and I decided to log on to computer just to find out some bear whale decided to cash out 35K BTC. "Oh no" I said to myself and quickly signed on to coinmarketcap to check the market cap. I was very surprised to find out that every altcoin out there was bathing in red blood.

"How can it be possible?" "But dev told me his coin would replace BTC" "but...this was the best coin"

I don't care what altcoin you have in your pocket..it would crash the day another bear whale cash out his BTC..it's the harsh truth. Can it change in future? may be..but I'll believe it when I see it happen..right now it's all talk and no action because BTC is still no.1 and everyone is attached to it...they think they aren't but they're and truth comes out when BTC crashes like it did on that Sunday.

POD is an instrument for PUMPERS....it's useless. You can't assign a coin to a name for the rest of that persons name. Satoshi is not responsible for what happens to BTC.

Websites can easily verify address verification by sending an a mail containing a pin number.
Phone verification just a simple call, for cellphone sending a text containing a pin number.
coinssource can be easily sued and condemned because of this mess. Just because of $50 free, they caused over $2000 loss to many people.

You have no clue how much $ is invested in BTC and what would happen if it decides to dump to $100..may be try checking market cap every now & then and compare it to rest of the coins that are listed in the market.

BTC is only a coin....It is the blockchain technology that drives it. That is the part that is the most interesting of it. The blockchain technology is what we are developing, a coin is just a part of it.

So yes, altcoins are the most interesting, because there is where the development takes place....not in Bitcoin

If altcoins are so developed...how come NONE of them is able to replace BTC?

YES do this Smiley Smiley

Make a website where we can click on coin and watch a short video with the developer. I think it would make it very difficult to scam. At least everyone would know their face as a scammer  Tongue

pm me if you ever do this, I will donate

Crypto is only few years old...it can't be perfect..it'll take time.  They're doing what they can..releasing his info was kind of them..they didn't have to do it. Next time ..do more research before investing big time on a coin that has fancy graphic and logo.  Grin

and stop with red font

Please respond to the question I asked and dont make assumptions. I did not buy this coin.

I will try to find him with the information from coin source but it cannot be verified as it could easily be fake. So I will repeat my question:

COIN SOURCE WHERE IS THE VIDEO OF THIS SCAMMER?

Did you visit the address they posted?

I doubt they have video of that person and stop with red font please.

No, I am trying to find a friend that will be in that area. I will update when I can.

If they don't have a video, what does coin source have to offer? ID's, pictures and addresses are incredibly easy to fake.

They must have a video. Why won't they release it?


A couple things I think would be very beneficial for true POD/verification (in addition to what is already happening):

1. Video verification of the person behind the coin. This way no matter if they fake everything else, we have a video of his/her face and audio of what they sound like. Makes it very hard for a scammer to hide.
2. Address verification: user must provide a bill with their name and address on it. The verifier must call the company from the bill and verify it is a real bill.
3. ID verification: Contact the governmental authority to verify if an ID is real.

If a developer doesn't want to do these things then they have something to hide. If they really just "want" to be anonymous then they have to accept people questioning their agenda and obviously shoudn't be allowed to run an ICO (aka 100% premine).

I am interested in providing this service to the community. Are other people on board with this? Although I applaud their efforts, to me it seems cryptoasian and coinsource haven't done anything concrete to verify identities. Please let me know if this is something the community wants or if you think I'm wrong and where we can improve.

Thanks


YES do this Smiley Smiley

Make a website where we can click on coin and watch a short video with the developer. I think it would make it very difficult to scam. At least everyone would know their face as a scammer  Tongue

pm me if you ever do this, I will donate

Thank you. If there is enough interest I will be doing it for sure. The current POD/verification techniques are too easy to scam and unfortunately have the opposite effect that they wanted. Getting a POD/coin source verification gives credibility to the coin (even though they can so easily be scammed) so more people buy it. So of course a scammer exploits this opportunity. Problem is coin source and POD don't actually verify anything. I believe video verification would be a huge step forward.

Dear Coin Source,

You should release the video of you skyping with him. That way we at least know the person in the picture is involved in the scam and regardless of fake identities his face can be recognized.

Are any of these pictures of lukas real? We need to know what his face looks like and voice sounds like.

Why is the video not released?

Thanks

100% agree!

A stupid question... why are people buying Equinox on Bittrex? Is it not pointless?

The same reason people are buying any alt-coin.  Developer or not, they are all pointless.

I wish I could disagree but it's harsh truth. People are blaming this & that but reality is all altcoins are pointless.

That just shows that you have no idea what is happening in Crypto. The altcoins are the hart and soul, here is where real development and inovation takes place....not in BTC

Lets go back few weeks..shall we?

So..it was beautiful Sunday afternoon and I was enjoying my coffee and I decided to log on to computer just to find out some bear whale decided to cash out 35K BTC. "Oh no" I said to myself and quickly signed on to coinmarketcap to check the market cap. I was very surprised to find out that every altcoin out there was bathing in red blood.

"How can it be possible?" "But dev told me his coin would replace BTC" "but...this was the best coin"

I don't care what altcoin you have in your pocket..it would crash the day another bear whale cash out his BTC..it's the harsh truth. Can it change in future? may be..but I'll believe it when I see it happen..right now it's all talk and no action because BTC is still no.1 and everyone is attached to it...they think they aren't but they're and truth comes out when BTC crashes like it did on that Sunday.



BTC is only a coin....It is the blockchain technology that drives it. That is the part that is the most interesting of it. The blockchain technology is what we are developing, a coin is just a part of it.

So yes, altcoins are the most interesting, because there is where the development takes place....not in Bitcoin

If altcoins are so developed...how come NONE of them is able to replace BTC?



Why is there a need to replace the mother of the altcoins....we are just in the baby years of crytpo. There will be an replacement for BTC, but there is so much more...

As I said before...it can happen in future but I'll believe it when I see it. So far altcoins have been failing miserably and it's nothing but P&D scheme to most people and then something like EQX comes and destroy it even further.

I agree...to many of these kind of scams the last few months.....bad for Crypto.
