Topic: EOS ICO SCAM 👺👺👺 Wow! Can you believe this? 👺👺👺 - page 10. (Read 40384 times)
I'm trying to understand why there are so many people pouring money into it, when the developers themselves publicly say that this should have no value.
This is the second post about this. Glad to see the community working together to expose these scams. You have saved me some btc so Thank you so much. 
I just bought 2000+ EOS. Hopefully it's not a scam. At least the DEV team is working on the code every day. Let's see what will come out.
i do not know if it is Scam of not, but seeing it on the exchange, i was considering buying the coin now that it is down, is it a good idea or i should stay away?
It sums it up very nice...

Yup it does.
You posted a link to a scam coin from none other than the same scammer as this coin.
The kicker is why..
Those steemit links are monetized.
People post them to make money off the block chain blogging ICO scheme coin platform.
So yeah it sums it up.. You plan on making money off of that url you posted.
Which sums up this topic.. Shady NOOBS posting garbage here for cash money fiat Bitcoin ROI's.

Calling a scam.. A scam makes me a troll?
You NOOBS and puppets played that card on the previous pages already.
You will find that with those explainatations you keep ignoring and.. Refusing to address specifically.
Ahahahaha I sure hope that was not your A game profiteer.
Try again?
There is nothing legit about an ICO.. And particularly an extra crooked rigged one to boot.
I'm not saying people don't scam using an ICO or Kickstarter, just you flap your mouth with your penguin with it's AKs, just ruining definitions of words. It's mostly just confusing to people and your attempts at warning people about the dangers that actually do exist go unheard because of your approach.
You scammy NOOBS / puppet accounts are still playing games.
The first post here summed it up.
The fact Spoetnik thinks "ALL" ICO's are scammy does not change the reality here.
Which is?
The Larimer scam crew has been behind plenty of shady coins.
There was no explanation put forth why he needed to port Bitshares to the Ethereum scam platform..
Except one reason.
Or I should say 180 million of them
Are we ignoring the phenomena of mass ETH ICO scam coins being peddled in crypto?
Larimer simply seen the shitstorm and wanted a piece of the free raining money.
You know I am not really sure what it is you guys think you are defending here..
I brought up the point of the thing is questionable at best.
Then you need to Guage what is being paid out for it.
You all think paying 200 million dollars for a Bitshares port on Ethereum is a fair and rational and legit thing?
Seriously is that what you dumb fuck shady puppet account NOOBS are telling me?
NOOBS?
Ya.. NOOBS.
Because I have been here for years and I am familiar with what is fair and reasonable.
This shit here is a retarded blatant cash grab.
From a notorious shitcoin scheme peddler.
Feel free to dig into the past of Larimer..
Trust me there is plenty of scam topics on his ass here.. Just Google it.
Hmm maybe I should clone and port some other coin to Ethereum.. Like maybe the scam scheme coin Blocknet then you all can line up to defend me holding my hand out out for a quarter billion dollars in BITCOIN.
Fair right?
It blows my damn mind how scammy greedy and pathetic and inept most of you are here in crypto.
All I see is morons trying to cover up shenanigans so they can keep on squeezing more BTC profits out of the Altcoin scene.
The bar just gets lower and lower and it fascinates me just how sleazy you will all take this shit.
Like what next?

I think it is strange the 365 day ICO, can anyone explain what the actual purpose of this is? Any other than collect more money?
It was desiged like this so everyone can have a fair chance of getting some EOS.If you look at 'normal' ICOs there is a possibility that a whale comes and buys 70% of the tokens (happened in BAT ICO).
Oh, that makes sense. I notice the same problem with IGNIS ICO right now. Whales keep buying up the stacks. So open is maybe fairer
There's a common theme among the "EOS is a scam" people. Your posts are all difficult to read due to the author's lack of basic writing skills. I'm not talking about the people who state clearly why they don't like it and give real reasons for thinking that way.
Clearly the "dumb money" thinks it's a scam. I think the smart money will be buying a couple of dozen EOS tokens and seeing what happens with them. This thread needs to be bumped a couple of years from now to see who got it right and how much those tokens (or EOS) priced at around $1.80 today could have been sold for at their peak.
Steemit and Bitshares definitely are not scams, find me a single victim of this undefined "scam" to prove otherwise. I and many others on here use Steemit daily and make money from it without buying any Steem at all. First define what the scam is, then who the victims are and I might bother replying again to this but as far as I'm concerned this isn't getting anywhere.
"It's a scam!"
"How, who's being scammed?"
"Erm...it's a scam noob Pajeet"

Any proof? Not to say that your arguments are not viable. But in order to make it plausible proof is needed 
WOW holy fuck.. you are the first commenter.
And i seen this play out exactly the same before lots by yet ANOTHER noob account.
Either you are a brain dead idiot or can't read or.. are acting like a deceitful scammer.
You god damn tell me smart fucker if they need 170 million god damn fucking dollars for a Bitshares fork.
Proof ?
Yeah ...you prove they need even 1 fucking million.. let alone 170.
You all out there are scammy morons.
You are not smart but instead shady greedy losers.
You make crypto look like pure dog shit.
I don't like you and i am not glad you are here.
Go fuck yourselves.
+1000 for Spoetz!
Laimers operandis = perma_shady.
Proto, BTS, Obit, Steem, and now EOS.
Hype dump.
They [the BTS crew] launches fairly good products.
Over priced = HELL YES.
Decentralized = not really, DantheMan is the Rainmaking king.
Crypto needs to declare the different classes of projects ASAP.
I made $3,000 on Steemit posting holiday pictures and recipes. Maybe it's a scam... but then it's a good one!!
It's still a pain to get the STEEM out... "power down" requires 1week wait for 10% of the assets.
Nevertheless, I use a nice Chrome bot to vote and I make $1 to $2 per day... that's $500 per year. Not bad in the end, at least better than POS stuff. (even if I prefer POS pooling... :-) )
Bonus points if you are a girl with "assets": You can make a fortune on steemit speaking about literally anything!!
Back to EOS:
Devs are good
Idea is good
but ICO was shady as hell....
I went in and sold everything. It's overpriced at the moment. Nothing got out of the pipeline yet. I am not a fan of Scam Larimer (as a person): he deliberately downvotes and hides steemit posts which are against EOS: someting weird there... he should not give a sh1t bc he is already filthy rich.
Steemit is not scam but yes, you see newbies with big girl assets they climb so fast for... nothing. Just post a photo and some rubbish. Then you got those writers who work hard for original content got nothing. That's not a scam. Just the way the gamers game.

You are simply playing dumb.
It's not working.
I know you know better lippy noob pajeet.
You are talking shit to make ROI's so you can buy your first pair of shoes..
Meanwhile the infamous scam crew launched another scam for a quarter billion dollars.
Look dipshits if you can't recognize a blatant scam when you see one then we'll.. Kill your self.
I don't care what you dumb fuck NOOBS and puppets think.
You are arguing against common sense.. In vain.
People not even familiar with crypto would see this and say.. Yeah.. Scammy shit.
Play dumb all you want.
It's all your investards are good at.

Haha, that was easy, not very good at this trolling shit are you?
C'mon genius, have another go, explain in your own words why Steemit's a scam and who the victims are. What method is the scam using?

Steemit isn't a scam, but it's inflation rate when it started was particularly bad, and as other's have said at the time did feel like a cash grab. I'm not convinced that the team isn't extremely selfish in the economic aspects of it, and clearly made an attack on ethereum the way they designed their ICO.

This blogpost, by the main PR dude for EOS, is informative. I'll let you make up more of your own mind about it cause it certainly isn't black and white.
I don't think i like their distribution model, but I do think they will end up with a product that may be worth that amount of money. Cash grab sounds kinda right, but maybe they are really getting what it's worth?
My biggest grievance with it, and i think is a really big deal is that the funds are available to them immediately. This should always be a big no no, and I think investors should demand that ICO's should have better controls in this way to make sure developers deliver on their promises.

Well, that's certainly a more reasoned position than the other guy. My main issue is the use of the word "scam" by others. I don't actually disagree with much of what you've said. However; Steem is literally designed to inflate for 3 years. It's not a store of wealth like Bitcoin, it's merely there to give people voting power on Steemit and you don't need to buy any when using the platform, you get more than enough through posting along with your SBD rewards. Steem is not supposed to be your typical altcoin, yes you can buy and sell it but it's more of a tool.
Steemit is in no way a scam,anyone can sign up for a free account and start earning SBD through writing without spending a single penny.
As for EOS, if the developers run off with the money then yes it's a scam, until then you might call it overpriced, it might be underpriced but people know what they're getting into. There's been no reason to think they are "scamming" thus far, using the correct definition of the word: "scam" rather than it just meaning : "something I don't like."
Steemit was not a scam, Bitshares wasn't a scam and I strongly doubt EOS will be. I think it will be a finished product when the ICO is done and likely worth several times more than the token is now.
Don't worry. Everyone uses scam here easily. A lot of other words used carelessly: blockchain, investment, crypto. Maybe it is unfair to call EOS a scam, but there are many, many causes of concern, most importantly the way the ICO is run. It makes claim to be fair, but is absolutely unfair. There is nothing wrong with building on same codebase, but EOS was not marketed transparently as such - plus, the original comparison showed only minor edits to Bitshare code. That is not worth to justify running a multi-million one year long ICO.
It's not just overpriced - it is just not fair. It is marketed to different music than it is playing.
it will be.....nothing to say
