@fartbags: You addressed me in a PM as well as publicly so I will reply publicly as I believe this is a public matter.
@blakeaholics, I'm actually not Jesse Couch. Due to my current job, I feel a need to hide my identity. On prior occasions I've asked Jesse Couch to represent himself on my behalf for this crypto world stuff. Clearly this is confusing and not transparent... but that's why I gave the project over to Jesse Couch. He is happy being transparent and open. I believe he will help raise the funds. Public figures are an important part of this idea. I will never be going public with my identity so Jesse Couch is really important to the project. You are also very important to the project since you are a public figure.
Over a year ago I met Jesse in real life at 4/20 after talking on these boards through the handle of "fartbags". How long have you two been sharing the account? This is more than confusing and, in fact, misleading.
If you are two different people sign your messages when posting. I understand the importance of transparency and am aware of my position in the project.
Is there a time you think you would be willing to reveal your information to the public? Are you at least willing to meet/talk/whatever with me?
Not really, that's not proof of anything. Again, I'm not accusing anyone but rather looking for the truth. Blakeaholics can talk about Blake in the third person as well as have someone submit a post for him.
Jesse Couch and myself have been in contact with Jyri. We have a contact medium with him. Jyri is alive! LOL. He fully supports the idea and gave consent to be involved in the way he is. Jyri will have his exchange soon. It will be a useful tool once #420AJF is created. An exchange is the first step in creating an ATM. Jyri uses Ricochet or Tox for communication. He doesn't come on this site much any more. Send him a private message and ask for either his Ricochet or Tox.
Ok cool, that was going to be in my follow up post. Jyri still should be on this forum, he took over a shit load of coins. Updates or whatever help keep projects active and the public interested. Evangeli should also be making an appearance on this board as it really is the main site for crypto.
Jesse Couch and Evangeli Anteros created
http://crypto.care quite quickly as a site to promote the #420AJF idea to investors. Investors need something pretty to see. I believe Jesse asked Evangeli to wait on sales of #420AJF to bigger investors so that true marijuana coin supporters could get in first. Crypto.care is nothing special. It's just a site to connect people who want to create DAOs.
I'd say too quickly. Finish the site if you truly want "bigger investors". You shouldn't have launched without at least finishing editing your template.
http://cryptobizmagazine.com did those nice special effects for Jesse Couch. I think doing it from their studio was a great choice. I'm not sure what kind of agreement he has with them. I believe he knows the owners of the studio and is looking at making a crypto show. This is good for #420AJF. If that show gets popular, then #420AJF has free promotion through that channel.
What about your, as well as Jesse's, connections to the magazine? Who are these people behind the magazine? Again, clarification is needed (sounds like for yourself as well).
And... of course remember the show was LIVE. Jesse Couch has expressed to me that he was unhappy with certain parts and wishes he said certain things that he didn't. You can't change it though. It's what happened.
I'm well aware of that and even addressed that:
Now I'm not accusing you of anything, and I realize people get nervous doing something live, but something just seems wrong about this when you're asking people to trust you.
@blakeaholics, Jesse Couch & Evangeli Anteros are making a better video with more focus on #420AJF. It will be pre-recorded and edited. Since you are also from Vancouver, would you be interested in going to the cryptobizmagazine.com studio and being part of that video? This would give you a chance to get your points across. #420AJF is no ones idea. It's important for many people to be involved.
You still haven't addressed my questions, I'd rather them addressed here before we explore further points.
1) What are both yours and Jesse's connections to all the companies/sites/coins that were name dropped during the interview?
2) What kind of protection can crypto.care actually offer to investors?
3) Why start a new site when there's established sites like Blocktrust?
4) If there's crypto.care, why is Jesse asking for people to invest directly to him?
5) How many other accounts are you or Jesse managing? If more than one, who, if any, else is posting along with you?
6) What coins/devs have actually given you their blessings and support?
Jesse Couch worked really hard for the last 2 months on #420AJF to try and make it a reality. He's on a little break but will be back next week. Please contact him about being part of the pre-recorded promotional video. I think it will help to have you there and have your ideas in the video.
If all these questions are addressed publicly I will gladly be part of the video. There's too many lies and broken promises in crypto these days, I'd like to know what's actually going on.
Again I am not looking to accuse anyone of anything, nor do I mean to sound rude, but rather I wish to clear the air for myself and the public
