That's not what happened. dyor. devs sold yobit a bunch of coins before the ico and then yobit listed the coins for trade.
it was a scam out of the gate it started.
I know you bought chesscoin at around 100+ satoshi and now it is at less than 20 satoshi. I know it is really bad and I can feel why you are being bitter about it. But isn't you the one accusing DEV of a scam? You should be the one providing facts, and one of it is giving us private conversation between the dev and yobit regarding the selling of chesscoin to them and it will be great if you can provide the transaction ID too. If you can't provide anything, just move on. Don't blame the poor decision of the DEV enlisting chesscoin to Yobit before ICO is finish, on your poor decision buying Chesscoin at that price when you can get it at lower at this moment. As stated, the ICO collection had been refunded, those who bought at yobit exchange is not the DEV's responsibility. It is your decision so be a man to accept if you bought Chesscoin too soon. You can do pingpong trade to cut down your lost, just a suggestion. Anyway hope you can recover your lost.
Move on buddy.
if this is true a big problem for all who invested here the coin price would be hard to pump up
a big number of this coin is hold by the exchange and it will be easy for them just to dump it
whenever they see that investors is coming. how dev can give us insight from this.
it was the person contacted by the dev to do one of the project in the roadmap, who was paid in ChessCoin and dumped chesscoin at yobit exchange. I agree it was a poor decision to give that guy the chesscoin ahead of scheduled ICO end time. But well what done is done, as long as dev delivers all things that is promised in the roadmap, we have no right to call the DEV a scammer. Let's move on and don't dwell on the wrong decision dev has made. It is still early for Chess, and too cheap to buy Chesscoin in the exchange.
