I've been on this site for a bit - only reading comments for info. But after reading some of the most retarded comments I've ever come across on this forum - I decided to say something.
I looked at their holdings in etherscan and they still have 25b locked. Someone with a lot of TPI (maybe collected cheap over the last few weeks in the Ethereum market or original investor) dumped it all. Sure it was not only a greedy but dumb move, cause the coin was moving. If everyone waited, then the coin could have easily rise and kept rising. Profits would have been a lot higher. Then again - you always want to get rid of the weak hands early in the game.
As far as scam or not a scam is not a concern. As long as the Devs don't dump that 25b coin, then the coin will be good (I have not seen any movement to make me think this will happen). It is still locked and none have moved in the last day I've checked. If they can get TPI on coinmarketcap and then other exchanges then those that bought it cheap now will do well later.
I keep on hearing people talk about this coin or that coin is a scam. When bit coin first came out no one knew the original founder - we still don't know who satoshi is. So stop with the retarded BS. Most coin grow because of investment. Sometimes because it is a good project but other times just cause of plain sentiments. Nothing more. Most COINS have no real utility value. Binance coin has utility value but most of the top 100 coin don't really do shit yet, maybe as a "store of value" which is a lame statement, since crypto fluctuates so much for that claim to be valid. Don't lie to yourself if you think any coin you own, really do much in real life for you or anyone else currently. Maybe in the future...maybe some will...maybe a few.
Anyways, If TPI keeps up with the update on here, Twitter, fixes their website and all the broken links, have a discord etc..., keep somewhat with the road map then the coin will rise over time - Hopefully the coin dump is close to over. If TPI ever gets passed 4-5 satoshi then it will go very far IMHO. All TPI need to do is stick to the road map and keep investors updated. If they can get to hitBIT exchange (as they claim) it would be a strong play. If they get on Binance (as they also claim) - it is a game changer. Then some people would wish they had a few TPI in their wallet.
Overall pretty decent coin better than most of the crap that floats around and bought up because of hype.
You can check on etherscan:
https://etherscan.io/token/0xfd41538077d0288e5e473dac75c019993e690266#balancesThis looks like the locked coins equaling 25b with no movement:
0x1550a419ab9230c349cd9d2c6a929ba68e426c8b
0x75c04936d2717a077c66d8a75200eaf347009963
0x606978f3f3e7047b736c03457e463dbdfc3b310e
This 7.1b or so coin is what coinexchange is holding for those owning and holding TPI:
0x4b01721f0244e7c5b5f63c20942850e447f5a5ee
Most of the top 50 holders have kept their coins with little or no selling. There seems to be a few that blew their load recently from the check of their account transaction. So dumping may be over or close to it, from the accounts, that have been moving their coins to Coinexchange. There are also some people smart enough to buy TPI cheap in the Ether market and looks like they are moving some to the BTC market to 1 satochi. Since it is currently cheaper to by TPI in the Ether market. A good indicator, for anyone interested is to watch the TPI ether market, once it hits 0.00000014 - 0.00000015 ether it will equal 1 satochi (0.00000001 bitcoin) which equalizes both market trading.
If the dump is not over, then it is close to over from outside TPI coins coming in. Besides for the 25b coins locked and has not moved. Coinexchange holders currently hold more coins that the other top 50 combined (not including the 3 accounts with the 25b TPI that are locked). What we will now mainly see is "in house trading" from coins that circulating within the exchange. If TPI is listed on another exchange or more, then the potential for profit is very good for early investors on coinexchange.
I did some initial testing to see if the coin can also be kept in myEtherWallet. Since TPI is a ECR20 token. You will have to Add Custom Wallet (Next to "Show All Tokens") and fill out the info can you can get from etherscan on the token and keep it there. If you don't want to keep it on the exchange. I would advise sending only 2 tokens as a test to make sure you have the information correct before sending. The speed of transaction is very fast, from what I've seen so far, so you will not have to wait long to know if you set the parameters correct on your wallet for sending and receiving the tokens.
Also, if it is true the TPI is testing and working on a real card. This coin can eventually become huge as a utility token. Far exceeding Ripple or OmiseGo in potential. I remember when Ripple was less than a penny just 1 year ago. Which caters mainly to the banks. A coin that is fast with low cost transaction for everyday individuals, using your phone or a card like TPI has claim to be working on, would be a huge step for crypto.

are blind?
the website was 'up' since 4 days. appraently they did an unannounced 'succesful' ICO that is logged nowhere, and there was no ICO at all - so the 25 billion locked can stay locked, any big account dumping IS the devs doing that themselves.
there was no ICO
there is only DEVS
they just exchanged it based on fake news, scamming people into it.
do you understand - they faked an ICO by openeing a website saying 'we did an ICO and it was successfull', while they just had their whitepaper (which have 0 value) released and website made 4 days ago.
You got scammed, there is no real card
the card of the picture is nothing but a paper print made by photoshop, as you can see the inprinted numbers that are clearly fake. Secondly mastercard doesnt do anything with 'cards for crypto' and all VISA related ico's had to call back their cards months ago and are still working on a solution.
Secondly, these cards are not possible to hand out without an approved KYC form as they cant issue their own card, they need to use a 3d party to do so (and all 3d party card issuers were forced to pull back from every project months ago)
This is all FAKE and SCAM so please stop trying to believe its real and face reality - u got fked because you didnt research
TL;DR
there was never an ICO, all coins were in hands of scammers (dont even call them devs) and amounts dumped are their own.
there was never a 'card' and there is no real version of it, just a fake printed piece of paper to fool you
