I'm sure that he's monitoring this thread without logging into his account. Either that or people email him whenever there are negative remarks about the crowdsale. The recent hiatus hasn't given us many things to discuss so I guess that is why he doesn't log in, Rassah definitely doesn't come here to provide support.

Sure, he'll log on eventually, post some smug/catty bullshit, and vanish for another couple of months. Maybe another time after that. By then, people will forget.

if mycelium had told investors about the wait lack of news etc they would be lucky to sell aqnything,
You got the point, they had no motivation to do so.
and Rassah I have 2.4 coins if you want to sell them for me my health dictates that now.Please PM me
Oh man. Sad If that's really the case, I'm sorry. I tried to warn people with this warning post but a lot of money ended in this crowdsale. I'm not sure if Rassah could help you by selling your shares though. As far as I know, they are not traded in any exchanges so unless you find someone to buy your stake in the open market, you probably won't have much luck selling shares for bitcoin because it seems like there is no upcoming platform to sell shares.

What Mycelium could do, is go out of their way and make an exception by issuing you a refund, but that's really not their responsibility anymore. You accepted an agreement when putting money with them and now all you're left with is a colored coin and a broken promise.
 
Even trying to fight this legally would be a hustle. I'm not saying that Mycelium's crowdfunding operation was necessarily illegal but they most certainly did everything they could so that they'd have minimum obligations to "investors" by bulletproofing themselves from courts in countries where potential "investors" would be in. They purposefully picked countries with loose laws on securities and companies as well.

So Mycelium is organising a "crowdsale". If you've been in their website you've most definitely heard about it because they're doing their best to get the word out. I'm here to give you the hard truth though, this is quite possibly the worst place to put your money in and most certainly a guaranteed loss of principal. Don't give them money unless you consider it a donation. Here's why:

Part 1
Unacceptable practices:
Giving a 10% discount to people expressing interest prior to the sale.
You don't have to be a genius to see how bad of a practice this is for securities (note: this crowdsale isn't even a security) that are supposedly representing a stake in a company.

Promising investors part of the money received from future crowdsales
In their own words:

And do I have a guarantee that the collected funds will only be used for the wallet project and not for the rest of the company?
Not entirely, but that's mainly because eventually all of the rest of our company will be rolled into this wallet. Most of the expense will be used to pay Wallet developer salaries, but some of our resources (like office and general brand marketing) are shared, so it would be difficult to keep completely separate. Sorry I can't give a more satisfactory answer.

Tokens are released in their own platform.
So fair distribution is entirely based on trust, as well as trading. Yet they claim that Token owners can either sell them on the open market at any moment or redeem to us if conditions are met, which is misleading at best.

Especially risky when you look at this from a legal perspective:
You're a US citizen, right? Where's your company based/registered at?

For now yes. It's not my company, I am technically just a contractor. It's registered in Cyprus, with the Wallet division registered in Latvia.

My advice on this would be to stay away. It looks bad in every way possible, there's no guarantee that Mycelium have the supposed platform ready or even that they're working on it. Don't fall for their misleading advertising, this looks bad no matter how you look at it. Only send money if you consider it a donation.

Thanks for that information. My friends are planning to take part on that crowdsale someone invited them to join and invest. That person told them that it is a good opportunity to earn. But after reading your post I realized that there are no guarantee that you will earn or your money will gonna come back to you. Im gonna spread this information so no one will regret after joining mycelium crowdfunding.

Mycelium crowdsale has already -ended- please read again.

Still waiting to see this coin an exchange, seeing that Waves trading started long ago and this project has big ties with Waves I expect this market to open soon or at least open a blog and post updates there.
