Topic: [PRE-SALE][ICO] Petro $PTR - Oil backed crypto currency launched by Venezuela - page 4. (Read 28469 times)

This does pretty much defy the whole point of crypto.   I know there are other instances similar but this is pretty extreme as example of solely relying goodwill of your note issuer to come through with any value or asset in exchange for supposed worth


I'm interested to know if any kind of democracy or capitalism can be restored to Venezuela to avoid needless starvation of many to serve the purposes of the few.    Just a few people sitting at the top isnt a working system, I guess its no surprise that the route taken with crypto has been unilateral.   The blockchain might as well be an Excel spreadsheet or a normally available database from a number of makers for all the advance it represents.   I made a database in DOS many years ago, it was a basic accomplishment for me but it stored all the records accurately and in theory I could distribute, replicate and issue data notes as and when required.  However it had no unique value or utility to it that other programs couldn't offer, I couldnt expect anyone else to use it especially but it was a working exercise or example.
 So where is the USP of PTR, every idea needs something but all I see is a vehicle for a forced scenario for usage.   Again thats not what crypto is about, I'd be happy to hear of any innovation occurring

Dude. That's not a petro. It's an IOU for a petro which may or may not be redeemable, and for what, who knows? You really don't understand how cryptocurrency works. A coin isn't yours if you don't have its private keys. We don't even know if petros have private keys because people aren't allowed to own them. We don't even know if the coin has its own actual blockchain.

Even though I have the power to tag you with red trust, what would be the point... you only shill for this abomination of a coin that foreigners can't purchase. Apparently only retired Venezuelans can buy IOUs for them. Really I don't understand what your purpose is. Maduro already fleeced as many foreign investors as he possibly can. You do an awful job of giving legitimacy to this project, should probably just retire.

meanwhile...

I do not know if you speak from ignorance or consequence of irony.
If you do not know what happened and happens in Venezuela, it is difficult to understand how the Bolivarian regime acts.

It's dead set on stopping itself. What we can do is try to get money back for all the non-Venezuelans that got duped into Maduro's con game. Did cryptoviagra get new petro shares? Of course not. He lost $5,000 in the fraud you are promoting on a public forum. What do you have to say to him and anybody else who lost money in Maduro's ICO fraud?


Dude, do you not understand a single thing about cryptocurrency? That poor old lady holding a piece of paper in her hand -- she just gave up actual money for... a piece of paper that certifies she holds petros? What is she supposed to do with that? Who says the petro is worth anything? You can't exchange it anywhere. The only thing you can do is buy petros with bolivars or BTC. That's it. You can't cash it out -- its physically impossible.


From the comments:

"To make a Cryptomoneda is easy!... The difficult thing is to create the confidence that surrounds it..... the petro does not give confidence.... and is not a cryptomoneda, although it has blockchain this centralized to the Venezuelan government."

PETRO iS A SCAM !!!

you see?
writing that Petro is a scam won't stop Petro.
you can write all the lies you want, that won't change anything.
you're wasting your time.

is it true that Petro is really a scam? I don't trust this news a little, because the Venezuelan president will lie to his own people? this is like impossible

If Maduro says that he invested 1 Petro ... and most only 0.0 ....... Catch the amount of the investment.

Coinve, this is proof that you were promoting a scam. This guy was never reimbursed in new petros despite sinking $5000 into a public crowdsale of the original petro.

I'll give you one last chance to defend yourself before tagging you as a scam promoter.

Looks like they're just buying pieces of paper. No public keys on them, no private keys. Just an IOU. Maduro has gone from scamming foreigners only to scamming his own people. Coinve why do you continue to promote a scam long after its been revealed that its a scam?

I’m sorry, but these people are not buying petros but “Certificates of Saving in Petro”, something totally different from a cryptocurrency or cryptoasset. Nothing crypto about a piece of paper. (I showed you in one of my last posts how it looks.)

Even your twitter links only say (in Spanish of course) that those people received those certificates, nothing about receiving or buying petros.

The simple truth is: The petro as a cryptocurrency wasn't released yet and all the propaganda of the government can't change that.

first it was that Petro doesn't exist, that petro is a scam.
finally after the release, that nobody is buying Petros.
now is that only a few are buying Petros.

happyminer and axioman think
they're going to stop Petro writing lies in a forum.
they're so fucking desperate.
it's so sad.

And it’s only a small number of Venezuelans who buy those “Certificates of Saving in Petros”. If you look closely at the photo of the lady who bought here certificate on 17th of January you will see that the number of her certificate is four digit, that’s below 10000. It’s difficult to read, but the first number surely isn’t a 9 or 8, so actually the number is below 8000: Less than 8000 Venezuelans bought this crap.

This of course is wrong. What people are buying are “Certificates of Saving in Petros” and not petros. They receive a piece of paper which says that they acquired a certain amount of petros, nothing more. They don’t receive petros on the blockchain.

all end up crashed. there's no more

And it is not to laugh, it is to cry. Salary in Venezuela to 6 dollars per month. And according to the inefficient government rate: 18 euros per month.

Typical chavista that enjoyed swimming among the shit.
before he was the spokesperson, today silent as a whore.

ok, you got me, you're right, you won.
don't buy petros, it's a scam.
now, you can leave the thread in peace.

No you don't. Your sole purpose on this forum is promoting the world's first government centralized cryptocurrency. Its a ridiculous farce that will never catch on. You know this and that's why you don't really post here any more. Maduro should have shelled out a few extra dollars to get a better shill than you.

i have a life, things to do, you know?
get a life.
