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.
you are lucky enough, because I once bought a ghost coin, it just doesn't hold it because I bought it only to pursue a short profit and I hope that coin is not completely dead considering that at the beginning of the release there were very many enthusiasts and also a lot of shiller still shill that coin, for mcafee itself it seems like now we should have stopped following projects that have something to do with him because since 2017 (ico season) all the projects delivered have mostly become dead projects.

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.

Exactly, the guy has no point and no weight behind his words. Imo he brings a lot of attention because of his loud words, people get pissed and actually want to be pissed and spit their negative comments at him, meanwhile he is pleasant of attention he gets off of this.

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.  Grin

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.

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.

Well, I think if he is really left his own project, many people will be disappointed and they will not like that. I wonder what will happens with the project after he leaves. I hope that after he leaves the project, the project will get better and can continue every phase until the project can launch to the public. But we will see what will happen next to the project.
YouEngine has being listed in four exchanges. YouEngine will end up good, am sure about that.
The bounty allocation for bounty hunter's is quite big, and there's bounty stakes price if you decides to sell or buy stakes.

That's what sucks when you leverage your "value" as a project on one single person, let alone John Mcafee. The coin should be valuable and provide a real solution without needing him anyway, if not the coin was clearly just a hype train.

Ghost already has issues even before this new issue with Josh like the plagiarism of the Whitepaper. Now he leaves the project acting as if its the noblest thing to do for a project. For all we know Ghost will be much better without him.  You couldn't expect Mcaffee to do good in crypto as he had destroyed everything he shills in crypto.

I can't believe he actually left or not playing a major role in the running of the project anymore, I think the reason why ghost was so hype was because of John McAfee being a part of it, many people had high hopes and expectations on ghost, no wonder the price have really drop alot, I don't get why this guy is not serious with stuff this days.

I hope he will realize that he is done in crypto, it's not his ground anymore that he can choose to play and expect to win no matter how he plays it. People have open their eyes, people might have forgiven him but they will not forget him, expect that this guy will continue to mess his reputation, and a new project coming from him might be introduce again soon.

Personality like that won't stop, they wanted the limelight just like CSW and don't think that they are done because just he left his own privacy asset project. I wouldn't be surprise if in the coming months he will come out with another project similar to this and claim that it is better than his previous project, Lol.

I don't think that he has some reputation to protect though, and it doesn't mean a thing to him, ruin or not. He will still go on his twitter making exorbitant claims and will command huge amount of money to shill for any projects that is willing to pay him.

Even before this, if anyone here has been trusting John McAfee then I’m really sorry for them Angry. This man has already done lots of things that shows that he’s not worthy of trust, so I don’t see why anyone will still be trusting him even at this time, if you still do then it’s just you that have decided to turn deaf ears to everything that has been happening for a very long time.
Yeah, he already lost his credibility many times before so I there's no way that people are going to trust him specially involving his name in a crypto project.

I even stopped trusting this guy when he started playing games with people by saying that he knows who Satoshi is and that he’s going to reveal him, but at the end that never happened. Apart from that he made some price predictions of Bitcoin that never happened, he even swore on it. This guy is not worthy to be trusted.
Even prior to that, the whole "I'm gonna eat my manhood in national TV" is totally out of this world claim. And then backing out in the last minute and then making a U-turn on bitcoin, really not to be trusted and a scammer.

All the projects shilled by John McAfee usually end up with sad stories. Initially it pumps then FUD sets it along the line, leading to massive dump. GHOST 👻 is no exception of his shilled shitcoins, anyone investing so much in any coin based on hype should rethink. Hyped coins are for cashout only in my opinion.
He only promotes shitcoins in this market. In 2018 I saw a lot of bullshit projects promoted by him, and in the end those projects died and turned into scams. Nobs is an example, I lost a lot of money on this project and I swear I will never be interested in the projects that he fomo
It's good that I successfully sold GHOST tokens some time ago. I feel that now there would be problems with this. Yes, John McAfee turned out to be a very unreliable partner in all the endeavors and projects in which he participated. It looks like you need to stay away from all projects that are associated with his name.

It was not his own to start with. He was a part of it. And to say so could just been and advisor cum advertiser for the project as he do have a good following on twitter and so called crypto news network follows every of his move. The Ghost project itself was accused of plagiarizing the whitepaper from another popular privacy focused coin. The disengagement would make no difference for both the project and McAfee himself as he is a shiller and needs new projects to keep shilling.

As expected. Ghost isn't doing any good as of now according to coinmarketcap. McAfee also relies on hype and shill which ghost are lacking, which is I expected him to consider leaving from this project which then he did. He's probably going to invest and shill a DeFi project seeing how they are souring right now.

But he doesn't really have to talkshit though. He isn't really part of the core team of ghost anyway. This just shows how a scumbag he really is.

Mcafee is literally the scum of crypto space, he realized that he is not known in the whole world normally, people just think he is just a anti-virus software and not really think of the person and the name, so at the end of the day I feel like there is really an attention seeking situation.

Don't get me wrong if everyone mailed you and asked you your opinion and gave you some small fortunate to appear somewhere or just support it and so forth, I would assume that people would basically do that as well, I wouldn't be able to say no. However this dude is already rich so I guess it is quite difficult to realize why an already rich person would drop to this attention seeking position, you should be able to do whatever you want without a worry, why try to get uncomfortable from all the attention.

I still wonder how people still call John McAfee a cryptocurrency influencer when he's yet to successful complete any cryptocurrency project. It baffles me that the space don't care about the integrity of a person before entrusting him with a title. I stopped following John McAfee when I found out that he's only out to enrich himself because those projects he promotes pay for his services and we all know that "IT'S HE WHO PAYS THE PIPER, THAT DETERMINES THE TONE"

His anti-virus is a different thing and it's what we can remember from him.

Otherwise, any crypto-related project or work he works for, they will certainly fade away after working with him. He's all for the attention and that's what he does most of the time.

Atleast McAfee admits it and apologize though I'm not one of those that he leds to astray. Most of those projects are using McAfee's reputation to gain reputation anyway and at the end of they day they want him just to do that and once the fundraising is done they'll definitely do their own agenda. Hopefully people will learn that following reputable person is not always the right call.

There is nothing left for this guy but disgrace and his credibility is in ruins! But i will not be surprised if one day people may fell again to his schemes because I'm sure he will do those awful things again if given the right opportunity including another promise to eat his .... Smiley

Mcaffee is a joker and not crypto enthusiast, he is a clown, cant even do what he said on his tweet before that he will eat his own dick in public, good thing that he left hopefully we will not se him again in cryptoworld.

I admit that John McAfee made alot of coins soar back in time, each time he mentions an altcoin using his twitter account and each time he talks about a coin or a token he raises the value not because of his involvment in developing the coin but just only because he's got some followers. I think that he runs only behind ca$h, he cares only about financial benefit of his own pockets and he drives their followers to the road making them end up broke. This is the main concerns of GHOST team and i think this is why they are no longer accepting him and trying to clarify things. I hope that GHOST will raise without such toxic peoples like McAfee.

John McAfee is an old man who often forgets that he often doesn't keep his every word, I still remember his tweet about the price of bitcoin, but never mind, he's just a guy who just wants a lot of money no more than that let alone really can be trusted as someone who most influential in the crypto world, so I never invested in Ghost either, I always avoided every crypto project associated with it

All the projects shilled by John McAfee usually end up with sad stories. Initially it pumps then FUD sets it along the line, leading to massive dump. GHOST 👻 is no exception of his shilled shitcoins, anyone investing so much in any coin based on hype should rethink. Hyped coins are for cashout only in my opinion.
He only promotes shitcoins in this market. In 2018 I saw a lot of bullshit projects promoted by him, and in the end those projects died and turned into scams. Nobs is an example, I lost a lot of money on this project and I swear I will never be interested in the projects that he fomo

I've been talking about the fact that this person cannot be trusted. all projects in which I saw this scammer turned into a scam. This person is just trying to make money on stupid people.

Lol McAfee does it again  Grin. I don't trust this guy already for a long time. He has hyped several shitcoins over the year, made a very nice profit for himself but the majority of people stays behind with a loss.

It is also bad marketing for the Ghost project itself, they should better rebrand their name in my eyes.

I do agree about that assumption. I am not sure what his intentions are really, insulting a former project player at that. He has a weird attitude and coupled with his millions, I'd say he is a very dangerous man (not the murdering type, but rather the scheming type similar to the scrooge). He should not be dealing with cryptos because frankly many many crypto enthusiasts loathe the said man and would mug him at every chance they could get.

The ghost team is right. I am viewing John as marketing accomplice but not a developer that work on the product itself. For me he is not a good team player.



After this I doubt if any project will take in McAfee seeing that he is always in a fight against the team, they do't need McAfee to promote a project they can launch a bounty campaign for their project it will generate a big awareness of the project, this is the right way of promoting projects and not paying personalities with thousands of dollars or huge shares just to shill it.

The worst part there is when he left he did bring some of his shares of the ghost tokens.

Calling someone idiot especially his partner or the ceo of esh project is not civilized. He should at least respect his team out if everything. Im not sure if they are considered one team of the ghost project cause josh is the ceo of ethershift(esh) then make a collaboration of swap with them.

John McAfee Has Left His Own Privacy Asset Project

"I tried to explain the fundamental principles of management, but they fell on deaf ears. My apologies to those that I led astray. Sorry."



it's something i've been wondering if this time he would finish what he started, it seems to me that he can no longer start something and finish, does anyone know what he meant by they fell on deaf ears?

because the representative from the Ghost team said:

"GHOST is an open source decentralized project. John can help market GHOST to his network or doesn't have to, but that does not effect the GHOST blockchain whatsoever. John is 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."

while the Ghost team tries to do things in the most civilized way, McAfee called someone an idiot:

"Josh is an idiot," McAfee said in the comments under his Aug. 19 tweet, likely referring to one of the project's brass.

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
