Sovryn - Brings DeFi to Bitcoin

Quote from: bitcoin31 on October 31, 2020, 08:54:13 AM

They have project that have annoymous team but they are legit because maybe they want their privacy but mostly of the annoymous team who have project are possible to become scam it's because people will never get idenity to them that can use against them but there is project are not annonymous but it still scam it depends to the purpose of the team but I suggest to invest to the team who is not annonymous for more chances that it legit.

While it is true that even the teams who have put out their teams have run away with investors money , the likelihood of it happening is very less and there is a chance that you can take legal action on them. But on invisible teams it's gone forever .

Team is the heart of a project. The success of a project depends on the team. If the team is anonymous, then investors and participants will lost hope with that project. In fact, the projects has anonymous team is more likely to be a scam project. Also many scam project use fake profile, picture of team members. So I think it is better to stay away from anonymous team.

absolutely right, when some people make a projects, it means that the project must create products. if we see the projects with the anonymous team member, we don't know the team capabilities, histories and experiences. are they capable to create the products or not ? if they're not, i'm sure the projects will be abandoned, then turn become a scam project.

Is it just me or what? I honestly dislike projects that have anonymous team when the project isn't a privacy Monero kinda thing, even few Privacy tokens have teams that aren't anonymous, shit I just feel like they are hidden for a purposes, some kinda easy getaway? What's your thought about this?

Anonymous team in one project can't be trusted because mostly this project turned to scam. And how investors would trust and invest in a project with anonymous team, it's too risky.

God, save BTC!

I think that anonymous developers in different projects are not bad! What difference does it make if the project works and is not scam? I know some good projects with anonymous developers are NEM and Komodo... And both of these projects are working!

I don't like anonymous team too because it will be damn too easy to exit scam and no law can hunt down such team since we don't even know how they look like lol, I always feel like anonymous teams have something they are hiding. I might be wrong but that's just how I feel.

It should be all of us, but with a few exception remember Nakamoto is anonymous but if the project is going to ask money and they are holding a very huge portion of the supply and it'sd already in the market and they are active, there will always suspicion that they are goign to make a dump and run away, like Ethereum and all the other coins people are aware on who they are and what are htere capability, and of course you will be comfortable investing on this kind of project.

Personally, I don't like that there is an anonymous team behind the project, I don't feel trust that my financial investment will be in safe hands, perhaps they made themselves anonymous, perhaps for the sake of privacy or in order not to sue them, or because they depend on the advantage of decentralization in crypto, I don't have a specific reason for their anonymity, but the anonymous team might be dishonest and they might have done so in order to escape their crime.

this is indeed a quite complicated problem. on the one hand, maybe the anonymous team wants to maximize decentralization, but on the other hand, if the project is not really strong it will be difficult to get investors' trust. your attitude is good, care is needed in this ecosystem. we must really know what we will make an investment. if in doubt it is better to leave.
Of course, it cannot be the same as bitcoin, which despite having an anonymous team has survived to this day. unfortunately, many take advantage of this anonymity as a way to disguise fraud from being traced.

The Standard Protocol - Solving Inflation

In crypto projects, the team behind it is one of the most important factor, most investors would like to know if the team behind the project have had some years of experience working asup in their sleeves, it's not advisable to go round throwing money into random projects with no team to show, avoid such projects as they are likely to become a scam projects later on, keep away from them.

This is very important to know who the team behind the project. Lately, we observe new projects with no team, and no real products but other people still able to invest. I don't trust easily this kind of theme without showing who they are. Since a lot of fraud these days and it is our own money that will invest so it is very important not to trust without knowing every detail of the project.

This is a new and easy method for scammers to raise funds and then exit scam or rug pull. This thing is back in fashion due to recent defi hype but as the market has matured a but now since ico hype im sure this trend will not continue for long as people will realize it and stop funding such lame projects.

Its not just you mate, I also dislike and avoid projects that have anonymous, I think its too risky to deal with them, I won't advice anyone to ever invest their money in such projects, because a project having an anonymous team makes it less trust worthy, how can someone trust some group of individuals who decide to remain anonymous?, what if it later turns into a scam?, so it's best we always avoid and abstain from investing from such projects.

I'm thinking that those projects in 2017 and 2018 that turned scam are making a comeback and they don't want to expose their faces again since this forum is capable of bringing up their misdeeds of the past so the only way is to go anonymous

i think so. the scammer turn the projects into the scam. the hype ones particularly. after they robbed investors money, they were addicted to create the another one. there are some projects that used an anonymous team members and plagiarism whitepapers (using the same whitepapers from the previous projects, but edited some words).

If there are projects with anonymous teams, I will immediately avoid investing in those projects, because the possibility of
the projects scams is very large. Because good and legit projects usually show the project team profile clearly, that way we
can assess the project team. We can learn that the people who are in the projects team are real people or not. Openness is
very important for project team to attract investors trust.

With the high level of scams in the space now, anyone selling themselves as anonymous team and asking for money is likely to be a scam, comparing yourself to Satoshi is like comparing Apple and Oranges. Satoshi did not ask anyone for money and the project was open for anyone to mine unlike all these anonymous team that are pure money grabber

never ever deal or invest in a project with anonymous team/s
i'd been saying this again and again seen 2013 my year with bitcointalk

I agree.

There's not much to discuss here, all has been said in that one sentence.

Anonymous team = scam, fake pictures or names = scam, team "borrowed" from another project site = scam.

for what i've experienced this kind of projects that doesn't reveal the team has a higher chance of scamming you. you're thought is true they hide their identity to easily run away from the investors personally even even if there are team members i don't trust easily the project since some of them still manage to scam and run away what more this kind of project that doesn't reveal their team member.

There's also no reason for them not to reveal their name unless they have plan to turn their investment into scam. No investors will follow or support if they don't have sny idea on rwhat the project is all about. If they will about to list their successful or already known project and it already built supporter then there is no need to know her

the trick to escape = don't want their identity to be known...
I am always suspicious of the legitimacy of a project if the developer doesn't show their identity. There have been many cases where the developer ran away with a large investment, in the real world he/her lives quietly because nothing is to interfere. must be more detailed with which projects you want to join.

For someone you will trust your investment, this should be required and every developers should take this into account that in order to gain trust they should be showing their real identities.

Honest teams will not be worried about this if investors will ask for their info if they are for real, but the common reasoning is we are inside decentralized nature of business.

Even so, every developers should be willing to provide if ever that the call for this to
be revealed always open to proceed with the developments of the project, more supporters
will entrust their money if they've got some small assurance who to blame incase something
happened to the project.
