Q: What's the connection with Paycoin and GAW?
A: ION was created by a team that tried to prop Paycoin (XPY) up for a year after GAW's demise, XPY being the extension of the hashlet ponzi scheme perpetrated by GAW owner/CEO Homero Joshua Garza. In April 2016 the team declared XPY dead, created their own new coin ION, rebranded xpy.io online wallet to ionomy.com, and converted xpy.io XPY balances to ION.
Q: What's the purpose of ION and ionomy.com?
A: Mobile game development with a focus on in-game use of ION. Announcement here, more info here.
Q: How was ION created and distributed?
A: xpy.io users had their XPY converted to ION at a 8:1 rate. Others had a chance to purchase ION via an ICO at $0.20-0.25. ION is 100% pre-mined with ~75% of the initial coin supply controlled by its creators.
Q: Who controls ION?
A: Ionomy PTE (a Singapore company) is the counterparty in ionomy.com TOS however such company does not exist.

When will the frankencloners learn that copy-pasta doesn't make a successful coin.
"Innovative does not make a coin. A coining be used by the world that make a coin."

I hope this doesn't cause another shitstorm because I know certain people don't like when I question the intelligence of the people involved here, but it's been 3 days since I posted about how "edgey" Urban Words will be and the typo is still sitting there.
since sarcasm doesn't always translate well, let's just put it straight out there, to any investors who think this is a serious thing
"edgey" is not a word. It has been sitting on the website of the thing you are investing in for a while. A typo is not the end of the world, but it shows a lack of attention to detail, which I would think is important. Who wrote the description for urban words? who checked it? How many investors have read it and not realized there's a blatantly obvious typo? Have you brought it up to the team and it hasn't been changed for some reason?
ION full of scam because paycoin coin supply still 11.5 Millions and still not burned xpy. paycoin xpy supply should be 7.5 Millions after burned. please give answer is it not scam again?
They can't burn the coins because the xpy wallet keeps crashing when they try to do it.
Were they the one's responsible for the xpy wallet? Or was that another "team?"
Even if they weren't the one's responsible for the xpy wallet, what does their inability/unwillingness to go through the effort to keep their word and burn the coins say to you?

Yeah, I noticed "edgey" too. Spelling has never been Homero's or Adam's strong suit.
In fact, he's never really been to "conserined" about it.

No it is just you not getting the connection to GAW
Watch the dosage of those meds - you seem to have messed something up there (this was an assumption - how did I do?)
An lier who is rude all the time is calling me spammer.
Correction - I'm calling you a piece of shit spammer and that is not a lie or lier.
Regardless of IONOMY, the coin tech is pretty nice! Smashing Black Coin Static POS and Dash’s Master Nodes together out weights all other POS coins… Add Smart Contracts and you got BTC 3.0 IMO..
So to answer your question with a question, what’s the purpose of any other coin?
So to answer your question with a question, what’s the purpose of any other coin?
Does it have smart contracts or is it just wishful thinking?
Most other coins exist only to separate bagholders from their BTC so I don't think that's a wise choice of benchmark.
With this technology, why is the team even bothering with games? This coin should stand alone, would it not? The best of Blackcoin and DASH? I'd scrap game development and just market the coin as that: a technological advancement.
It sounded as if it's the best of Blackcoin, DASH and Ethereum. Maybe they can make it SHA256-mineable and worth $400 a piece so it would be the best of Bitcoin as well.

They have stated that they are too busy to burn them. Take that for what you will.

The difficulty seems to be rising a bit, more master nodes and wallets coming online. I read on Slake mid-June for game release, will have to wait and see…
Great, in the meantime, what is the point of this coin again?

Your right! the coin could take on a life of it's own... Seems IONOMY is trying to bring it to the masses using the gaming market. It's actually not a bad idea. But for this, will have to wait and see.

@woh_jason, I am glad you think that BitcoinTalk is a joke. I also think it's laughable that you think 95% of the people will only ready the opening post and ignore the rest. Goes to show how delusion you and the ION team are. It's even funnier how you and the ION team think that Slack is the proper way of providing information.
Well its so Adam and Jason don't have saved logs of what they said.
They learned of GAWgate and they utilize finite communication to control their investor group.

You mean its THEE ULTIMATE SUPER SAIYAN SATOSHI's final form POS coin!?
I'll contact Leroy Fodor and Tai have them buy all these IONs then.
The purpose of other coins (top 10 easily) is to show the ION team how to actually produce and launch a coin.

Whoop-de-fucking-do. Yeah awesome tech, blah blah. Maybe if we could do anything with it other than just exchange it back and forth among the same group of 20 inbred retards, that would be great. Typically the purpose of coinage is to exchange for goods and services, something that the IONOMYTM sorely lacks.

Hmm, where have I heard this kind of shit before?...
Maybe it's them evil POW miners dumping their ill-gotten coins... oh wait...
May 24, 2016, 09:46:21 AM
I am turning over a new leaf. I highly suggest that EVERYONE get on board the ION train today. Don't worry about past failures or lack of transparency. That means nothing. I encourage everyone to just invest and do so blindly. You won't get big returns if you don't take big risks. Here's to 2016 being the year of ION!

There I go asking questions again thinking I will get a response. Nope. Just a response that doesn't address the questions I asked, in typical ION fashion. I'd have better luck extracting a tooth from a live dinosaur than getting a straight answer from anyone associated with ION.
Is it new for you that they dont come to answer? Looking at the most posts here and loooking at some love using metaphors like that they are
Yes, I think you're a piece of shit liar.
...
I don't think you're actually made of feces, just that I despise your lies, assumptions, whatever you want to call it
...
I have no obligation to stay polite
...
I'm just fine seeing you crap in this thread and not elsewhere in the forum.

To answer metamorphic, I think ION team says methaphorlical the same: f*ck off.
I am sure that they will not come to reply. They stated multiple times that their official communication way is slack and email. Now, if you cant wait for answers, go to slack or write them an email.
@suchmoon
If you are looking for more methaphoric answers, this is what I would answer you if I would lower myself to the methaphoric language.
You do realize that the quote is not about ION but about your incessant spamming and is not even from this thread? This kind of threadcrapping is why I consider you a piece of shit spammer.
They don't answer anything on slack either by the way, unless it's the type of question that can make them look good. Any substantial answer would be reposted here anyway.
No it is just you not getting the connection to GAW, I am sorry for you if you dont get it, you can report on it. You opened an trash thread (spam), then another thread (spam) and all of them are connected to me posting here. You are an big piece of an lier shit, garbage of shit! You say assumptions are lies, so far I have nothing to discuss with you because you seem just not to understand, thats why you keep staying rude and blame yourself on the way how you communicate with other members here.
You say that ontopic is offtopic and thats why I am an spammer. An lier who is rude all the time is calling me spammer.
I wouldnt answer to such rude person like you are 0! I get answers, some others seem to get them too. I think it is on you if people dont want to talk to liers like you are.
