The truth about CannaCoin (CCN)

[fordlincoln]

I have been involved in several closed door meetings with the CCN team and for this reason I've made a throwaway account as my real account can be linked back to my real world details.


The focus of the discussion then violently changed from "How can we improve our own coin" to "How can we tarnish the reputation of cann". Many idea's were thrown around but eventually the team settled on spending BTC to hire a PR firm to run what was essentially a smear campaign against CANN. It was a well known fact that the price of CANN would plummet on the 20th (that's just how the altcoin markets work and nothing nefarious was done to lead upto the inital dump) knowing this the CCN team figured that the 20th was the best day for the PR firm to make their move.

The PR firm in question specializes in blockchain technology and upon analysing blockchains they find whatever fault they can and capitalize on it via way of organized FUD. The PR firm are the ones who found out about the so called "Hidden Premine" and then passed that info along to the CCN team who themselves have put extradionary effort into ruining the reputation of CANN.

Just a guess, but this Vanbex group sounds totally sketchy.

Hi, I'm the founder of the PR firm referenced (vanbex.com) and we weren't hired by anyone to do a smear campaign against Cannacoin.
Regarding, "The PR firm in question specializes in blockchain technology and upon analysing blockchains they find whatever fault they can and capitalize on it via way of organized FUD." Thats not correct. We actually try to answer to the fud and sometimes we agree with it, so we work with the company to fix it.

TBH I had no idea about Cannacoin before seeing this thread and not sure what the situation is with this coin. Please forgive my ignorance of the situation.

Lastly - we would be happy to promote any project that fits within our scope and meets the minimum requirements, including cannacoin. We don't operate in any negative way in the space, we only try to further the understanding and success of our projects.

some historical reading pleasure about our trusted-neighborhood watchdogs at the helm of CCN:


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=482425.360  


Touted CCN as having the backing of 1000s of medical marijuana-based community members in the Northwest when that couldn't have been farther from the truth.  It's just two guys selling out their user-base of an outdated UBB bulletin-board system.  They did it then, they're doing it now.

When they got called out for selling out their own NWGT community members, they banned those members and breached the trust of many.



These guys just don't know when to quit.

I'm surprised CCN still has vocal supporters of Tokyopotato's spamming .

I support CCN's projects -- I think they have real potential, but none of what they've been doing on these forums the past few days is what CCN is all about.

It's a shame CCN will forever be tarnished, because of this FUCKING TWAT tokyopotato and his well-oiled spammaganda machine.

I once thought highly of these guys, and I have never done such a drastic 180 on a person's character.  

I may not have lost money with CCN, but I feel more scammed, more duped, more betrayed from their actions than from those who hyped up GUE and GLYPH, then took off without a trace!

Huh thx for posting, everybody should know what kind of people run CCN and their "transparency" operation.

before the topic is removed from their subreddit - a concerned "investor" / "baholder" / CCN or whatever you want to call me, calling out those at the top of CCN in an exchange with Hybridsole -- apparently Tokyopotato and James' #1 cheerleader:

the post that's haunting the CCN ANN thread - I'm having a little fun -- following the examples set forth by CCN's self-appointed "Leaders in the industry":

so, this is what it feels like being a douche, wow i'm super awesome!

you know, you could have stopped earlier like I asked:

oh wait, wait, no -- no, you're right, a picture speaks a 1000 words:

Thank you for confirming that you were in fact not hired.  Quite frankly, if someone makes accusations they should provide hard evidence not shill accounts with fantastical stories.

I did not endorse Jamesonotc or Tokyopotato to do a blockchain analysis nor did I have any control to stop them from acting as individual crypto investors.

What happened with the CANN premine is a tragedy of epic proportions as it could have been handled much more professionally and through transparent accounting from the beginning by the developer.  There is an inherent danger when investing in premined blockchains or ICOs that simply does not exist with pure 0% premine blockchains.  This is why Cannacoin (CCN) has a 0% premine and a completely intact and transparent blockchain since day 1.

All cool and shit, but did you try to contact them when they were active in the CANN thread? You contacted me when I was posting in the ccn thread and was threatening with a poor attempt to stop me supporting the truth ( yep can share that) I am willing to crash CCN with help of others(or alone) when this answer is wrong
