Threw 1 ETH into this during the ICO. What a mistake that was.

yeah I also got banned on Telegram...seems like a scam to me if they can't answer simple queries.

As others have pointed out it look suspicious because they have been heavily moderating threads and Telegram. They have reasons but the community cannot understand it because you are just asking some queries. Its like you can't question their authority which I find it amusing. I didn't invest on this coin, although the project looks spectacular in the beginning, but with their attitude, one can question if they are scammy or not.

scam?
Enjin Coin is listed in some major markets such as HitBTC, Cryptopia and Livecoin.
I think it is very unlikely EnjinCoin  is a scam.
Yes it is, that's why I was confused regarding if it is real or not, because I can never seen problems in enjin coin. Definitely it is one of the trusted coin in crypto currency industry, maybe we were convinced if you have an evidence of regarding scammed made by the enjin coin. Prove to us that your accusations is definitely truth and not only from news.

There was a "formal" scam accusation here at Bitcointalk against Enjin in August. The arguments the "claimant" brought up were also partly based on a very strict moderation of critical comments, but also on supposed "fake team members".

But the Enjin people have resolved it, the team members were legit - at least the "claimant" has definitely retired the scam accusation.

So it's "almost" impossible it's a scam, but their strict moderation policies on different channels may be a problem and should be revised by the Enjin team. (Unfortunately, in marketing these policies are quite "normal", even if social network marketing handbooks mostly advise not to censor critical voices.)

For the technical question, unfortunately I lack the knowledge.

Yes, the their strict policies really drove others to think that its a red flag and accused them of a possible scam. Its heavily moderated thread but I think they do it because there's a lot of trolls saying a lot of negative things about this project (which is expected btw, this is how our community has become). However, I don't think their purpose is to scam people, maybe they just want to avoid such criticism specially coming from trolls spreading rumors.

Banning people for asking questions about competitors is stupid in case if it's a non-scam project. People (especially investors) have a right to express their opinion or suggestions about the project. Otherwise, it's scam.

I don't think that Enjin is a scam. But I agree, for me the usefulness of the Enjin group in Telegram is very low... To much pupils, spammers and flamers... There is no important information or discussions in these groups

doesn't much sound like a scam, if it highly possibly that they offer an inferior product and are trying to keep the public unaware. Doesn't mean that enjin is non-functional.

Yeah, insta banning anyone who asks about the project or how they're better than their competitors seems perfectly fine. Doesn't sound like scam at all.

/sarcasmoff Thanks for posting this, wasn't gonna invest in this because I don't see the purpose of it, but it's good to know.

Being an avid gamer I've been looking in to Enjin and so joined their Telegram. Then I noticed GoNetwork too. Looking at both whitepapers they were very similar. So I went on Enjin telegram and asked their CEO Maxim what he thinks are the main differences between GoNetwork and Enjin. He instantly deleted my messages and banned me. Try it if you don't believe me, ask him the question, you'll be on here confirming that you're banned from the telegram group.

What's more worrying is that GoNetwork's whitepaper really seems to address how they'll bring Ethereum to mobiles. Enjin's does not. I'm wondering now if the price dump is because those more tech savvy than me are aware that Enjin doesn't have the know-how to bring this tech to mobile?

What do you guys think has Maxim got something to hide?

enjin provides space community for games, it seems enjin will a big scourge. whether scam or not , takes time and program responsibilities. if enjin troubled with player game and user cryptocurrency, the team can feel hard blow from publisher and devlopher game, because enjin have games community program .

If this info is correct, you are helping some people not to invest there,
 and often done by any party when asking in the telegram forum .. when they cornered by our question, immediately they remove our writing without giving a logical reason.
And a great idea to include links, so much that helps to clarify their projects are really scams or not


Low budget scam projects are relatively easy to spot but big projects like Enjin, very hard to tell if there are bad intentions because everything looks professional etc - not saying Enjin is a scam, but say if there were more sophisticated scams out there, they could have the resources to look like a fully legit team, then it's kind of only up to your own knowledge and gut feel to make the decision whether a team is truly legit or not.

This makes the investing process very difficult. Would be great if there was some sort of whitelisting/auditing service for ICOs to provide a bit more confidence - onus should be on projects to whitelist as well as the individual trying to sort through and blacklist bad ICOs.

It's a scam. Most people that want their coin to grow have a bunch of people putting in ideas on how to improve the coin. You might lose your money.

I don't think it's a scam but I have noticed a lot of the telegram's are really strict on mentioning/advertising other projects in their channels which makes sense.  Sometimes they go overboard in moderation of it so maybe that's just the case in this situation but dunno

It does seem they may not have thought things through, especially if they have had to copy another company's whitepaper to answer technical scaling questions (if that's the case).

The thing people don't realize about ENJIN coin is that it is solely dependent on publishers allowing it in their games. Many big house publishers won't allow it and will just go on using their own in game currencies for virtual purchasing. If you want a gaming coin/ICO that may actually stand a chance check out Gameflip.com as they actually came from the big house publishers and have a lot of contacts in that space. They've also already got a place in the market, you're not just buying an idea like a lot of these other ICO's. Their ICO starts Nov. 28th. I don't think ENJIN thought far enough ahead with their project. All of these gaming coins seem pretty convoluted to me, I won't touch them. But that's just me.
