QTUM  founded by a conman. He founded Bitbay and left with all the ICO funds. Then used Bitbays ICO funds to create QTUM and then buy their own ICO.

Do your research on the founder Steven/Patrick

This is not trolling its the truth


It's funny how people who are overly critical of Dai all seem to define research and truth on this forum. They take the word of David Zimbeck as truth, and the hitpiece of a Coinjournal article which goes as far as to attack Caspal's Rubik's cube record, WRONGLY saying that Caspal does not hold any.

Here are the narratives I've seen so far with the conspiracy-prone skeptics: 1) Qtum is scam. They will take your ICO money --->  2) Okay, they haven't left project and taken ICO money but they will! ---> 3) They have probably already stolen the ICO money! We don't have txids (incomes third-party accounting firm that shuts these guys the fuck up).  ---> 4) They're just a pump a dump (for some reason, they continue to develop the project though...)



Here's a more neutral article for those who actually care about that stuff:
https://www.smithandcrown.com/qtum-controversy-patrick-dais-exit-bitbay/

To some people integrity actually means something. The fact that he won't scam QTUM doesn't change his actions in the past. And to be honest, for me this was enough reason not to invest.

I respect your decision not to invest, and I think it's a completely valid reason. With that being said, if integrity were the main issue with many of the people shouting scam, then they wouldn't post things like, "He founded Bitbay and left with all the ICO funds. Then used Bitbays ICO funds to create QTUM and then buy their own ICO... This is not trolling its the truth," when that's not true at all.

Somewhat comically, the implication of what was said here is that Dai would exit with the Qtum ICO funds. If that were the case, he would've left a long time ago.

I haven't invested yet but the tech and team seem to be very solid to say the least. Not sure what to make out of the Steven/Patrick saga... many of the most promising projects are surrounded with controversy. Take EOS and Tezos as recent examples.

Can someone tell me why the coins being traded do no match the ones that are being distributed on the core wallet. I must have the wrong wallet. Can someone please confirm for me. I am on version Qtum Core version v0.14.0.0-a633d64-dirty (32-bit)

The core wallet we provide is for our Test Network, which is different than what you see on the exchanges. What's being traded on the exchanges is an IOU, which can be withdrawn as an ERC20 token. When the Main Network is released in September, all of the ERC20 tokens will be converted to Qtum.

On a development note, here is the updates this week done to Qtumd. Please read carefully, there may be big news coming.







Changes made through this week to the core wallet

Work completed:

[Build/Documentation] Instructions were added and a few things fixed for compiling Qtum for Windows

[P2P] Fixed a bug within the P2P network where blocks bigger than 4Mb could not be properly propagated

[Build/EVM] Fixed a bug where cryptopp within the EVM would not build properly on some versions of Linux

[Research/x86] Did research for the x86 VM and determined it is most likely viable as a smart contract platform

In-progress work and soon to be fixed bugs:

[PoS/Consensus] Testing and reviewing MPoS for preparation of merge into testnet-2

[DGP/Consensus] Testing and reviewing DGP for preparation of merge into testnet-2

[Staker/PoS] Adding new command line arguments and logic to the staker so that it can properly prioritize contract transactions

[Consensus] Working on fixing two minor security issues in the sparknet/testnet-1

So what will happen with these coins?

I took pictures of the site translated and a pic of the the translate button, but I don't know how to upload a pic here... You have to be on Chrome for it to work.

ok thanks.  maybe upload it to http://tinypic.com/

Qtum is now trading on https://liqui.io/

Thanks. Does liqui allow you to send the qtum out of the exchange as tokens to an offline ethereum address?

I see the liqui price has now climed 40% higher at least on liqui.. $7 vs $5 a few day ago

Watch the AMA with Tim Draper of Draper University, co-hosted by Patrick Dai of the Qtum Project (A Draper University alumni)






Draper University held their quarterly "Ask Me Anything" with Tim Draper, co-founder of DFJ and Draper University this past Tuesday. Tim answered questions about Draper University and explaining why he plans to make ICO's and Cryptocurrencies a core module in the upcoming Fall program at Draper University. Tim Draper was an early supporter of bitcoin and its underlying blockchain financial ledger technology. Tim is also an early investor in companies such as Tesla, Hotmail, Skype, etc. and co-founded DFJ Venture Capital.

During the AMA, many of the participants focused their questions around Tim’s recent blockchain investments, what countries he thinks are the most forward thinking regarding the technology, and the future of ICOs.

Patrick Dai, one of Draper University's graduates and Founder of the Qtum Foundation co-hosted the livestream and detailed how attending Draper University enabled him to pursue a blockchain startup.

Patrick highlighted his experience during survival week as making him more resilient and agile, something that is especially needed being in the blockchain industry. Patrick also talked about how Qtum is different from other blockchain projects and his hopes to expand the industry by working with Draper University in the future.

For those interested in applying to Draper University, Qtum will be giving away 50 Qtum tokens to the first 100 applicants of Draper U for this upcoming semester. We hope you learn a lot while you're there, just as Patrick and John did! Apply at: rebrand.ly/apply  and learn more at http://www.draperuniversity.com/

Draper University


Silicon Valley's top entrepreneurship program founded by Tim Draper. Startup bootcamp and crash course in business and entrepreneurship.
 


Watch Draper University's Ask Me Anything with Tim Draper on Livestream.com. Join us for our quarterly Draper University "Ask Me Anything" with Tim Draper, co-founder of DFJ and Draper University. Tim will explain the rationale behind why cryptocurrencies and ICO's are now a separate module in the Draper University Fall program. Learn more at Draperuniversity.com. We will have John Scianna, one of our Draper University graduates and a Marketing Director at the Qtum Foundation to co-host the livestream and detail how attending Draper Unviersity enabled him to pursue a blockchain startup. Qtum raised $15.6 million in March, making it the fourth largest blockchain crowdsale at the time and released its testnet, “Sparknet,” in June. Qtum is the first proof-of-stake blockchain platform with smart contract technology. Qtum has built-in a decentralized governance protocol that allows blockchain parameters to be changed by votes from different stakeholders. With this technology, the Qtum blockchain becomes self-regulating, self-modifying, and self-aware. Tim Draper was an early supporter of bitcoin and its underlying blockchain financial ledger technology. He participated in the Tezos slated ICO which raised $200M+ within four days. Tim is also an early investor in companies such as Tesla, Hotmail, Skype, etc. and co-founded DFJ Venture Capital

So how long does it actually take them to release the tokens once you've given them an ETH address to deposit into? I would be referring to the exchange: bizhongchou.com
