Yes Tenx was "homeless" they had ICO. We risked our cash investing into Tenx. They could fail, they could run away with our money.
We are past the extremal risky phase. Pay price is back to ICO level even though they didn't fail/run away with money.
You are literally getting few month of successful work of tem, and you get ideas implemented into reality for free.
Sure other company can work very hard - but not always hard work ends with success.
Think about cake You can buy super tasty cake for 10 usd, looks great, smells delicious you even took a bit and it is amazing!
Now you can choose to buy this tasty cake or maybe you will give 10 usd to some random guy and he will make cake for you. Maybe he will make it maybe not, maybe he will add some cherry on top which your cake dosn't have, or maybe he will spit into your cake... risk... and no reward.
Is it anywhere close to beeing wise to risk losing 10 usd, and waiting half a year for this guy to bake you a cake, if you can just pay 10usd and you can have tasty cake, one that you know it tastes good?
Same price but you get huge risk investing into copycat company. I do value Tenx more because they were really the first creating working live-traded-btc card.
Why bitcoin is worth 30 times more than bitcoin gold? Preety much same coins, but BTC was first - you could use it you trust it.
With tenx you get possibility to buy BTC at BTG price, and you consider to buy BTG because maybe BTG will succed? For me it is insane to buy company-wannabe and pay same ICO-level price as for working company.
I hold my Tenx card in my hand and i am using it daily - i know it works - i know it is not a scam.
