Not only unfounded, non-existent. Because I haven accused you of such thing. At all. It may come as a shock to you but I don't accuse unless I have evidence. To my satisfaction. The people I accuse, specifically if you must know, are peddling an exchange -another one- and some sort of game-in-a-browser. You can easily identify both. And, again, none are you.
I call it as I see it. And will here and at any of those places/coins you mention if, and only if, they are running scams. As an anonymous handle I care about reputation and I won't use sock puppets -as so many of you do- nor change the account or the name. And if I make any mistakes and am proven wrong, I'll have no qualms not only admitting to it but apologizing for it.
Thank you for providing, again, the unnecessary link. Everyone here knows what scamming is. I most certainly do, semantics included or left aside. But since semantics seems to be of importance to you, let me be even more clear as to what I consider scammy and why I consider Next to be it: Anything that can be done here, without accountability, and that could never be done in the real world, for being illegal. Is that clear enough? If you need clarification, please don't hesitate to ask.
Your memory is short:
Actually, your answer is totally ridiculous and argumentative.
1.- Minimal as it is, BTC is a global phenomenon on which several -and growing- real life business are based. It has staying power proven through years of all kinds of attacks and manipulations and a clear path as to what it is, it represents and who the face of it is (The Bitcoin Foundation, with names and addresses, physical ones, as well and TAX IDs attached to it... none of which applies to NXT). Additionally, hundreds of independent organisms and enterprises do control who is mining and how much are they mining. So your point comparing NXT to BTC is utterly ridiculous, ok?
2.- You (who are you, by the way?) may have spoken to "some of these holders" or "Yoda" for all I care. It is argumentative and doesn't add any transparency to the conversation. Either put up or, kindly, shut up.
1. So, according to you, 4 years ago, you would have called Bitcoin a scam? If not, then come back in 4 years and we'll talk. (Btw, we have businesses starting up in NXT right now as we speak)
Additionally, hundreds of independent organisms and enterprises do control who is mining and how much are they mining. So your point comparing NXT to BTC is utterly ridiculous, ok?
Prove it. (In case you missed it, this example was to show how ridiculous your arguments were, you were asking me to prove something as equally ridiculous.)
2. It doesn't matter who I am, but I am one of those who are starting a business based on the NXT platform.
Who are you?

No, according to me
5 years ago Bitcoin was a new concept for a potentially revolutionary for of payment. And I would probably would not have thought much of it except for another anarchistic pipe dream. Now if I would have given it some deeper mind, I would have probably been a converted very quickly. But there was no money to be made in bitcoin. For years. So that, in and of itself, separates it completely from NXT whose main if not only purpose was, as clearly evidenced, to make a very few amount of people a lot of quick money. By design. Proven by facts and by it's "distribution". PROVEN.
2.- No, it really doesn't matter who you are. It is clear that it is another scammer whether your scheme is already posted or not.Me? I just trade on these scams trying to avoid getting too burned and hoping to find Bitcoin version 2 -the evolution of Bitcoin, that will correct some or all of its obvious flaws. No matter much who I am, because I am not scamming people nor pretend to be an honest anonymous individual while taking other people's money.
Think of me as someone that will expose alt scams as he sees them. And run with it.
Funnily enough, your part of your definition of "scam" doesn't particularly make sense with blockchains. Every transaction is accountable and guaranteed by the protocol. So with that out of the way, it's now a question of legality, is this correct?

Well when you face the wrath of 4 or 5 active posters, it is hard to keep track. And, by the way, I don't know and wouldn't be surprised at all if your scheme is not YET posted at the AE. But, since it is not, I cannot assume that it will so, for that, for the time being, I apologize.
Well it does. With any ledger. As a matter of fact, much more so. But that is another subject and I don't want to go into it now (need for accountability, hence non-anonymous presence and the like). But in your somewhat narrow view, of course it'll come down to legality, correct.
As usual, it is much wider. For instance, I have a very severe problem with the fact that stealing is not only rampant but also accepted to the point of giving bragging rights and even the inevitables "he/she deserved it" or "that would teach him/her a lesson, so it is a favor" in cryptoland. You see I am convinced that digital currencies could be an enormous leap forward, through their real asset, the blockchains, for humanity. That progress is hindered only because Cryptoland is, in reality, Crooksville...
But, like I said, let's leave it at legality. And no, the way the IPO was conducted (not that IPOs in the real world are not fraudulent too, mind you) was simply not legal.
