I see the IPO is running full steam ahead so first congratulations are in order.
Keiretsu? Wow! I really have to say you know your finance stuff (or researched well). Most of crypto people would have been tongue tied answering the question with sensible arguments.
That said, first lets look at Keiretsu -- By definition it says different companies but by its working it is also about different promoters too. Here you are investing in your own assets that too borrowed from people. So it really isn't Keiretsu. Now you might say otherwise but one of the founding principles of Keiretsu is to lower risk for the companies too. In all of these assets there is one single biggest risk and that is YOU!!
JLH might be a "balanced fund" but now out of 9 assets it holds 4 of them have association with you - MgwLTC, MgwBTCD, Coinomat and NSC. On looking at trades I find it recently even held Nxtprivacy which was traded or transferred making it 50% (5 out of 10) in your own assets being held by jl777 (until yesterday):
https://nxtblocks.info/#section/txid/13869109530637325948https://nxtblocks.info/#section/txid/18177681832696022121Now the recipient account NXT-EVK5-KLZV-NHSZ-H4Z7R was first created on 5th and it doesn't show any bid order placements -- to buy NXTprivacy on an open market, so you have to wonder how it now owns 2.5% of the asset without any trades. Was it via some kind of trade/agreement? I don't know but makes you wonder for sure. The account received transactions from two NXT accounts:
https://nxtblocks.info/#section/accountId/NXT-ALP6-JWLS-K25S-DYTMBhttps://nxtblocks.info/#section/accountId/NXT-R8SQ-TUEM-DTHQ-7ATA3both of which again hold your assets (percentage wise)
I have just scratched the surface of your holdings and their transfer patterns. I am sure if I dig enough a pattern will emerge. To me it looks like an inter transfer to build up volume and price. This is possible because.............all transactions on NXT using 1 NXT as a fee instead of a percentage share (this is the achille's heel of NXT itself) , not really a big one if you can forge/get those back in the market, isnt?
Is there something fishy about your offering? Yes. Am I 100% sure about whats going on? No, cause I am not a full time auditor
So everyone buying this ICO (and saying "we have read the thread and understood") just be careful. JL777 has been kind enough to ask only 1 BTC if you doubt him, I would wager 0.01 BTC. But as I said in my original post, if you are being greedy, you will deserve what is coming.
All my accts are published
All my tx are on the blockchain
I do occasionally do market rate swaps to rebalance and focus a particular asset to a specific area
I dont have time to play games with the orderbook, so while you are more intelligent than most of the people accusing me of unethical behavior, the fact that you think mgwLTC is an asset of mine indicates you are not quite understanding of things
Now I have heard the many requests of people to better understand the assets. Since it sounds like you are already doing some analysis, do you want to work together so we can get some nice understandable documentation. I dont do GUI and I consider this sort of like a GUI, so I guess this is financial GUI.
If you are really interested in protecting people instead of just trying to smear my reputation, I expect an acceptance of this. We can do all the discussions of the internal transactions here, in the open. I have nothing to hide

Edited part of the quote.
Yes your accounts are published and yes they are on the blockchain. Problem is even with such an open book, it would require people to either not be really teary-eyed or be an excellent auditor to dig what is really happening.
MgwLTC is not your asset? Well honest mistake. If you think I am intelligent you certainly have to wonder how the mistake came about -- the answer is Nxt forum profile look up sucks, I can see your posts but not your opened threads. That makes it difficult to dig through all your assets you have issued. I assumed MgwLTC is similar to the BTC/BTCD offerings. So I do have understanding of things, its my digging which got hindered.
That said, I am certainly not out to smear or protect anyone. I don't have a horse in this race. If you remember, my initial question to you was "how come what you are doing is not a Ponzi", you said your asset formation is Keiretsu, along with me being lazy and what not, which it isnt. If you really are not doing anything wrong, answer these initial queries:
a. What is your holding pattern in each of the assets? This will clarify how much of your one asset is owned by another asset. ie answer the ponzi query clearly.
b. Even if you are consider these linked assets as Keiretsu, how do you mitigate the single point of risk - YOU. Not only from a scam point of view but also from unforeseen events too - say an IRL issues, many of us have those.
c. If your answer to above is "escrow", then who/what will be holding the "escrow". What are the terms? I have gone through the pdf and don't see the escrow terms.
It has been quite apparent from the syscoin, another IPO I bought into, that the escrow in crypto space is corrupt. slex has been changing terms for that escrow as and when he likes. worst part, his contention was wallet and blockchain, even in non-working form was enough for him to hold the coins.
That "suspicious" 2.5% of NXTprivacy was my donation to the BTCD community. We had a fund raiser to help pay for some bounties and I offered to match the value of the donations with some of my personal NXTprivacy. With the BTCD price going up about 3x from the time I made this offer last month, I decided to just send in the entire 25000 NXTprivacy I had allocated for this donation, before the BTCD price increase would prevent me from being able to match with the 25000 NXTprivacy.
I know I am just so evil
James
P.S. If you look at any NXT acct with more than 100K NXT in it, my guess is that they probably have at least one, if not many of my assets. For some reason, the fact that they have gained over 125 million NXT in the last 4 months has made them popular.
This post makes me wonder if you are actually two person
(no smearing meant).
Read my initial post - "
Was it via some kind of trade/agreement? I don't know but makes you wonder for sure" So no I dint say you were evil but yes it was surprising for an BTCD outsider. Wouldn't you agree?
As for the donation, you donated it out of the JHL asset (from what I can see on the blockchain) and not your personal account. So how come it is your personal NXTprivacy assets? Or have I missed some documentation where assets held by your own assets like JHL are your personal stash? Similar thing has happened with SuperNet, isnt it? You have allocated the 10% BBR held by sharkfund0 to this asset, maybe within your rights as a fund manager. then you could do something similar next time too, couldnt you? Open another asset called SuperDuperNet and allocate 5-10% of Supernet to it..see where I am coming from?
If we were to talk about playing with the orderbook, please explain me this. Instadex (again another of your asset) was stuck at 40 NXT for quite a long time. You came up with the first draft of Supernet where you disclosed about the increasing ownership in Instadex. A market changing information, it actually broke the range and now is at a high of 57 NXT. Would you say this was correct in your part? Specially when yourself talk about "jl777 effect" and then pump your own asset, knowingly/unknowingly?
Anyways, I think I have posted enough proofs for people to look into. Its up to them to decide what they want to do. If giving you 10k BTC is their prerogative, so be it.
