I do not know, you should invest according to the information you self-study and decide, not to crowd, not follow the feelings and ensure your investment if lost does not affect your real life.

This is right, Actually most of the investors got loss because it is most often happen that they've invested bse on their feelings  not in searching it first about the ico that they are going to invest in. That's why is we need to be careful as musch as possible.

I'm not an ICO investor. I have never thought it to be a good idea to send my coins and hope to get them back some day.

Anyway, I've read through the whitepaper since I discovered the coin a few days ago. On paper, it looks very interesting. I can see the appeal of the coin. The only thing I'm really not sure about is the mobile mining part. I mean I use my phone regularly within a day and well, the battery does end up at 30-40% most evenings. I don't see mobile mining as something viable unless you keep your phone plugged in a power source.

That said, they idea to basically use your phone as your payment method for everything and the 2 decimal thing sound pretty good to me.

Been mining it for 3 days straight now, even if the price drops, the difficulty seems to drop as well, making this coin very profitable to mine.

I do have my doubts once the token get released to the investors. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the ICO was 0.01$ per token. So even at a current 3ct, I can see the temptation for investors to dump their coins.

We'll see I guess.

The mobile mining is a mobile mining experience, not real mining. The app continually polls your phone's available CPU capacity and emits coins based on that. So the mining experience is very similar to if were mining for real. A faster phone would get you more coins per day. If you play a very CPU intensive game, your phone would emit less coins over the time you played the game.

In addition to the "background" miner, the app will also have some sort of mining education game that aims to teach the masses how mining works. You'll be able to earn additional coins by playing the game and completing levels. The CEO mentioned that the end goal of the game was to get people to start mining with their own desktop computers.

As for the amount of coins you can mine per day, the CEO mentioned that they will control the supply based on number of miners, difficulty, and current price of an ETN coin. He mentioned that they would allow a maximum earning of about $1 of coins per day. However, that would decrease if competition becomes more. This does not sound like a lot to many people, but many citizens of third world countries could eat 3 meals for $1 per day!

The CEO also mentioned that there are two distinct mining pools - one for CPU/GPU mining and one for mobile meaning. Each contains about 7 billion coins in total. The difficulty in one does not affect the difficulty in another.

Not sure how this is going to play out, having a centralized entity control the coin emission algorithm for about half of the total coin supply, but I have faith in them. Richard has had to take tough decisions in the past few days, but each time he took the best decision for the community as a whole.

The whitepaper explains that the mobile mining (they call it a "mining experience") is just a simulation. Your CPU  capabilities are sampled and you are credited some number of coins proportionate to this. IMO this is more akin to staking than mining, but it also sounds pretty fishy to me. It was one of the reasons I avoided the ICO.

That said, I do like their "mobile first" approach to crypto. I just think there are a ton of cryptos already and we don't need yet another built by an unknown team.  If you have some value to add, why not improve one of the many great projects already out there. Seems to me like just a money grab.

Electroneum does look like it could scam the investors. The coin doesn't have that many people wanting to exchange each day.

Wrong. Electroneum has been consistently in the top 3 coins per volume on Cryptopia, transacting more than 100 BTC per day typically.

And if that's too little, the reason why no one exchanges coins is probably due to the miners holding their coins. Right now only mined coins are exchanged. There will be great liquidity and exchange volume once the ICO coins become available in 3-4 weeks.
that's interesting as we will see what path this coin will go after the ico coin got release and how investors will deal with bounty hunters, its too early
to say what this project will go if they succeed or if they will fail the investors,.

These guys has absolutely nothing to do with Blockchain. They are Social Marketing Expert who see a possibility to collect a insane amount of money in a short time.  I cant believe that this project collected 40 Mio.$

Two Spectre shills in a row trying to ride off ETN, typical

Checkout Spectrecoin (XSPEC) guys on Cryptopia.

Best performing ICO in 2016 and still pushing forward. It is British and is sure to become the next Monero.

for me electroneum do not say rip-off very first before studying whitepaper because there is a definite description of the project From what I have seen and the white-colored document, I do not think it a scam, but anything can happen, ICO is definitely an investment and investment is danger.

Electroneum is not a scam, but thanx for asking. The team, the CEO and advisers are good and they'll do everything to add some value to the coin. Not to mention strong marketing pros there. They came up with great idea with mobile mining experience so the coin will be better marketed naturally. Nice connection in gaming industry. I believe in this UK project longterm, though it may take some time to take off.

On the "mobile mining". Already explained by tons of people: it is NOT REAL mining. It is a mining experience, you will get some coins by playing with an app. No real mining involved on the phone.

To me It looks like a scam.
coz 50% presale bonus and only few are able to trade tokens now.
Referal program confirms that.
It has a 20 billion supply.
even If they make 50% circulate, This price is not possibe to achieve for a long time.
Some people are buying with the hype.
We will see many bag holders.
Pathetic!
