About the only thing I agree with crazyivan on is the fact that Tempus is obviously a Factom employee or one of the founders. Seems a little dishonest to not be upfront about that but hey fuck me right. There is a number of reasons why I believe that but seems a bit waste of time to go into them. Allow me to suggest some kind of disclaimer. You have too much information and are too involved in a project which is in a community hostile stage.
Am I wrong? Maybe, maybe not. You can't change my mind with your big wall of texts but I just wanted to have it said that I think you are up to something that smells a bit disgusting. And well I apologize for my opinion as it is kind of a unneccessary post if it is untrue and you are just a contributor but people should have it in mind while reading your posts that you are probably affiliated somehow on a larger scale than the rest of us which kinda sucks as investors into a decentralized network we should all be equal but that is rarely if ever true sadly.
This is getting stupid. I'm not even an ICO-Investor. I recognized Factom right after it launched on Polo.
See, the bad thing here is: I can't prove what I'm not. I could prove what I am, and tell you a lot of my personal life and that would make clear that I'm not from Factom and it would make clear why I have time for this and also why I see it as kind of a "job" to invest in Crypto. I do this full-time. But I'm not a professional and my reasons are personal and I have no reason to post a diary here.
You say
"You have too much information", but I just do deeper research and I analyze informations with another approach. It's never just about objective infos but especially subjective informations --> communication. I focus on little details. I could give you tons of examples and not just about Factom. And if you look into my post-history: Focus on my posts in the Heat-thread (1 or 2 weeks ago). Very often I use communication to find out more.
Example: My first post there was to James:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15555631I won't say here why I've asked him. But I could tell you a lot about it. And I knew before that he would answer and what his answer would be. One line from me, one line from him and I could write you a wall of text why I asked and what I believe to see there.
Second post:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.155564023 questions. 2 are important. One (the third) is not worth to ask. Public Information. If you look how it was replied: The first two important questions were ignored. The unimportant one was answered. My next post was about my concerns about that. And that lead into a lot of bullshit and lies.
I didn't do that to hurt them or to spread FUD. I just wanted to know if Heat could be worth to invest in. They had an article in forbes, so I believed it could be a good project. But: I looked deeper into it and recognized many points I did not like and how they react and I can't say I know everything about them, but for sure I won't invest in lazy guys, who don't do the basics before they ask for money, and liars who intentionally misquote me:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15595975Or look into my posts about Neucoin back in October. I predicted how it would end and in that case there was no possibility to be wrong.
******************
I say that because I looked deep into Factom as well. If I would have recognized aspects that I could have considered as weak or dishonest, I would have communicated it and they would have answered. Because I ask in a way that it would be revealing not to answer. But all I saw was honesty and professionalism. I don't say they are perfect and without any mistakes. But in comparison with other projects I looked into, I don't know of any on that level.
For me it's always about the question if that what is visible can give informations about what is behind. And while it's never safe, just about possibilities, things become clear if I have a lot of informations. That's why I have a lot of informations because I collect informations to be able to do what I do.
And this situation, that some here seem to believe I'm from Factom is mainly a result because I shared informations and also speculations. If I wouldn't have done that, nobody would believe in this stupidity. And funny is: If I'm critical, Heat for example, I'm accused to be paid from a competitor. Neucoin was the same. And some others as well. It's a typical reaction.
This is a good point:
"we should all be equal but that is rarely if ever true sadly"
You and I are potentially equal, because I know nothing you are unable to find out. I never had any kind of insider-infos. We are not equal because I'm more diligent and more precise and maybe I have more time because of personal reasons and most likely I know more about psychology etc. But what I do is no rocket science.
