Its because of what the dev did that i lost my money. I bought on the exchange at almost 100 sat and now its all gone. Like a small pile on sand in a tornado.
Yes and no. You chose to buy off of yobit, which is a known pump/dump exchange, so you must have been aware of the risk involved.
The fact that the coin was available on yobit for trading before the ICO was over, and in the volume it was PLUS the switch in exchange value in bela (which removed the advantage of buying coins via the ICO) should have been giant red flags screaming: "Okay, something is wrong here".
The wording by the dev was a red flag: sold coins to a 'secret man'. Secret man? Like some guy skulking around the corner in a dark alley, going "Pss... can you sell me some chesscoin?"
It never really added up. Now if it was a teensy bit of coin he sold, which it looked like originally, .1 btc or less daily yobit volume, we could let it slide, figure it was odd, but okay, nothing too terrible. Later on when we were seeing much higher volumes, it was a sign to just stay away -- unless you were willing to take the risk.
So I wouldn't completely blame the dev if you bought off of yobit, as the warning signs were there.
And I guess you might as well hold at this point, hope for a spike if the coin makes it to ccex, and just cash out then for whatever you can get.
. ICO cancelled , instead of shutting the project down, those who trust the dev and participated in the ICO got their refund with bonus
