And with "Facts proved by bitcointalkers" you probably meant "Stories made up by those few FUDers on bitcointalk.
1. Robin announced that he was a drug addict more than half a year ago, but is sober since then. Your accusations only started in January (because you opened the account only then) so basically after or around when he made it public and way after he was already sober. Also it wasn't you to prove it, it was Robin himself announcing it (and to be precise, there is still no proof at all, just his announcement, that he apparently deleted by now).
2. There is no proof of any pending internal struggles over money. The team announced they were willing to give Robin money under certain conditions for independent research and he was not willing to fulfill this conditions.
3. According to latest report in AmA, the burn rate is around $200k/month right now. Even a $250k/month burn rate would not cause financial trouble due to their announced holdings of more than $8 Mio.
4. Team confirmed to run low volume market making bot, no fake volume bot.
5. No price manipulation was ever proven. In fact, "attempts" of proofs done by some FUDers on bitcointalk were easy to debunk and did not prove anything.
6. GPU mining is available. There are no details as to when first GPU miners existed. Nimiq Team never claimed that there are no GPU miners or that they are unlikely or hard to create. Still FUDers on bitcointalk did nothing that contributed to a proof on this topic
7. According to swiss company register, the foundation board consists of multiple non team members and not all team members are in the foundation board. Removing from the team is independent of removing from foundation board.
8. Just recently the partnership with agora trade and presumably a third party in the financial sector was announced to create the first-of-its-kind, non-custodial fiat exchange. See
https://twitter.com/agora_trade/status/10905020441657753609. Subjective, thus impossible to proof.
10/11. Even though some community projects were closed, others were started at the same time. Most of the community members that created projects they closed now, are still part of the community (ex. Blub, creator Beeppool, now closed, was still actively contributing in the Nimiq Discord these days and provided help with setting up a community seed node. He also still hosts one of the community seed nodes, actively contributing to the network).
TL;DR: Most of the "facts" are just lies, and none of them was proven by FUDers on bitcointalk, but actually only debunked or explained in detail by the team.
Interested in hearing people why I buy NIM, what makes Nimiq stand out from the rest, what is its utility, etc.
@chemal, check out the
Discord or
Telegram, this BitcoinTalk thread is very unusable due to the load of FUDers.
Short summary: Nimiq is aiming to provide easy and user-friendly crypto-payments with real decentralization, focusing on web payments (PayPal-like checkout) right now. This is accomplished by light clients that run directly in any browser (no installation or plugin required), but still are a fully decentralized client - no trusted third party involved as in other web wallets like Coinbase (custodial) or MyEtherWallet (non-custodial), browsers are directly connected to the peer-to-peer network.
Warning: yuluxugi32132, nimiqshitcoin, coinfanatic, andrewjaxx, john.btc, sasha.new, Scamiq, robin.nimiq are sockpuppet accounts, proven liars and FUDers. All of them were only created this year and only for the purpose of spamming this thread (check their profile). They claim substantial losses due to their Nimiq investments, yet fail to provide any proof that they actually invested. Rumors say that they come from another crypto project, assuming they are a direct competitor to Nimiq. Don't expect anything mentioned by them to be true. If you want real insights, check out Nimiq community channels (Discord, Telegram).
