I honestly thought he was the creator of Ghost, now I'm wondering if he still programs something or did he just become a charlatan?
That was my thought too. I never knew it was a pure deceit. Well, I didn't buy any GHOST. I got them airdropped to me for holding ESH on 1:1 basis. So, all along we didn't know that it was Josh (the creator of ESH) and team who made GHOST and not McAfee. Well, that known now and this is the first and last time I will be deceived by that McAfee. I should've followed my instinct that he wasn't trustworthy after that early scuffle of plagiarism accusation from the Pivx team on its White Paper. Now I know I should (whenever that urge comes up again). Going forward, I think everybody should be wary of McAfee now.

Wew, it literally likes a textbook for John McAfee. Said you in a cryptocurrency project to boost its popularity for money or share. After making a decent amount of profit from that project then quit. I bet we gonna see him doing the exactly same thing in a few months from now.
dont believe this man, john mc afee just a shit in this crypto market. no successfull project that he handled or he as advisor , all of them just shit project which is exploit his popularity only. just remember what he said about bitcoin price at 2020 , and now it just a bullshit. personally i will not join in any project that have his name.
Of course, I never believe John McAfee and I fully remember what he said about the Bitcoin price 2020, and it became the mockery of people because he said that he would eat his testicles .... and despite all that and the failure of all his expectations and his ridiculous words he was not ashamed of himself and continued to make ridiculous statements.
That's not very surprising to be honest. Many big headsin the crypto sphere had joined projects only to have their name there.
Perhaps after the project was funded and they got their share, then they would simply disappear. Not that their involvement was anything more other than branding anyway.
It's a big reason why ICOs shouldn't be trusted, especially not over the names that seem to be 'involved'.

I'm glad I sold my ghost token at 2$ each because honestly I don't see how the project will grow bigger because the team aren't professionals to me and roadmap is not exciting either, moreover every projects that McAfee hyped are all performing badly, some are even dead already
You made the right decision. McAfee hops on from new projects to other new projects without caring for any of it. The best way to dealing with any coins that McAfee shill is cashing out at the highest price when it overhyped. That it.
Since day one, Ghost team only use John McAfee's name as the way to gain attention to their project, nothing else. Guess McAfee thought differently and now he tries to have some input to Ghost team, only to get kicked out. This is one of many cases you guys need to take as a lesson: be careful to any project has John McAfee involved.

you made an excellent choice, from what I see in coinmarketcap the current price is at $0.29, I wonder how people who bought above $1 must be feeling because the initial price of altcoin was $0.80 in June and from June to August 10th the price was always above $0.80 which means that many people must have bought above $0.80 and John McAfee did not think about the damage that would cause to all who bought above $0.80
John McAfee, as always, always raises problems and controversies, always says strange things and makes irresponsible statements, he has to be more civilized in dealing with others.
I think it would be wrong to share someone like John McAfee, but there are some projects that are using John McAfee's fame to promote their projects even though there are a lot of suspicions about John McAfee.

Ghost copied the white paper from another coin almost verbatim.....you would call them idiots too
What you have to understand here is that everyone who copies other people's words, then he is a fool, because here everyone is required to have professional thinking in their respective fields, and one more thing is not all words. almost the same it is the result of the copy.

In the articles it says that John McAfee is not part of the development team of the this Ghost Coin when in fact the team disowns him and he is in fact just part of the marketing team the guy wants to have a say on the project which the development team, do not want to, many developers will now shy away with McAfee because of his attitude.
He never was in any project. He just lend them his name and advertise it a bit and get a pile of coins to dump on newcomers. And every time when people ask him he say he uses Monero. No one owns Monero.
it is strange that for a person like him not to have his own cryptocurrency project. I honestly thought he was the creator of Ghost, now I'm wondering if he still programs something or did he just become a charlatan?
this is a behavior that should not exist in the world of cryptocurrencies because a fight between team members should end in something civilized so as not to harm the people who will be holding altcoin
That is the big problem.
GHOST doesn't think of him as a team. So there is nothing to be civilized about.
He's like just another investor who want out. Problem is he had the connections that might have been the reason for the dump.
Quote
The team, who could not immediately be reached for comment, pointed out that $GHOST is a decentralized, open-source project. “GHOST is much bigger than 1 person, even if you are John fucking McAfee,” they said in the statement.
The team said that McAfee was “in no way involved in any day to day operations, nor has he ever been involved with any of the tech or building of GHOST.”
They did not explain why he left the project, but called him “a loose cannon.” McAfee responded, “If I am a loose cannon because I dropped my support for a failing project so be it. I will not support bullshit.”

One thing I know. If it's that good then it could still make its way up. A lot of investors are still out there especially those who hate that guy who burst everything in Twitter like it's his diary.
I thought he was the creator and leader of the project, now I am shocked
All the projects shilled by John McAfee usually end up with sad stories.
In fact, he tried to create an exchange that was unsuccessful and then tried plastic cards that said he would have his face, but this project was also another failure
Lol, that's what he does every time first he promotes a project then leave it hanging. I invested in two of his before and they both performed terribly in the market. Good thing I skipped this one.
surely now people will not pay attention to him when he talk about a new project

In the midst of all these messages between McAfee and Ghost team, all I can think of are those who followed the project just because he recommended it. I am just imagining what his followers will be feeling right now their hopes have been dashed to the rocks. Also, another lesson to learn from this is, do not follow any recommendations by all these so called experts or whatever because they do things for their own benefits alone and care less about anyone. That guy McAfee can be hardly trusted and those following his words will only cause more harm than good to themselves.
So people still buy coins recommended by John McAfee? I wonder when crypto investors will stop investing because one influencer supports a project, because if the same influencer talks ill about that project, the effect will be disastrous.

Oh boy, I almost bought some ghost token when my friend told me about it, I didn't know about the swap with esh but I thought to buy some ghost from the exchange, am just glade I didn't because shortly after the price at $1+ then the price dump, if I had bought above $1 I would have been in loss now, holding and waiting for price to recover, McAfee is not to be trusted at all.
I saw this guy since 2017.Till today every projects I saw he connected all of those turned into shit projects. Project owners hire him for creating a hype and sell their tokens faster. After all of them run away with a big amount of money. This person is the real scammer using his followers and popularity to create scam projects. Currently another project is running here called "Youengine" (maybe or something like that) which is using his name. But I think it's also a scam.
