That was such a great effort I thought this was a great project judging from their videos you really need to ask a lot of questions to find if a project is legit or not, so many imitations of the project, they are getting better, they must be because they know there are a lot of money involve in ICO..

Thanks for figuring this out mate yesterday you aroused this in topic and I also asked the question about FB group that was suspended. And then I found real Bitwise twitter account so I had everything clear. And later my question concerning FB group was deleted.

I take out their signature and move on to another campaign it seems the dev is not addressing these concerns I'm sorry I did no extra mile to fully search if this project is legit or not kudos to OP for saving us from this, frauds are getting good at making things look good we really need extra careful.

I've checked on the video and their explanation in their telegram and it passed my test based on what I observed.it's up to the individual who will read all their explanation if they are indeed legit, but with the current situation where so many ICO fraud glad that you come here to explain your side.
Do you have link to that video?

I hope OP will update his findings so those who want to invest and promote this ICO can do so without any fear that this is a scam site this is just to be fair to Bitwise
Why do you need someone to do due diligence for you? You can't do basic research on project which you are advertising or something?

I have done my research based on what they have shown on their telegram community and I find them no fault.
What they showed exactly? I checked their telegram and they didn't show anything. Stop shitposting.

I hope OP will update his findings so those who want to invest and promote this ICO can do so without any fear that this is a scam site this is just to be fair to Bitwise, I have done my research based on what they have shown on their telegram community and I find them no fault.

As I said about their group Telegram, I directly solicited 4 executives from Bitwise:

Shahab Kama - Executive Vice President
Salil Sakhardande - President
Hema Sakhardande - Co-founder
Neelesh Desai - co-founder

I drew their attention to this Bitwise ICO which is officially unknown on their official websites and social networks (a shame not to use the communication power of such a large company, no?)

I'm waiting for their answer, then I'll update this thread

By the way, don't you find it surprising that you don't find the Linkedin profiles of founders and managers on the ICO website?
And the amateurism of the whole thing, is that normal for a multinational company too? And the poor quality of the template?..

Some other questions:

Bitwise is an huge enterprise, this is his website: https://www.bitwiseglobal.com/

I would just like to understand how it is possible to propose an ICO with a website (https://www.bitwise.ltd/) registered 11 November?




And btw, Bitwise offers an ICO of 10 million USD and...NO mention on the main site?

The social networks you highlight on the Bounty thread and the ICO website are falsified!

Also we would like to know about honeybrownphotography.com a bit more as they are actually selling the photos of our team members.

It's original at least as a defense. Cool

a simple question: from what source would honeybrownphotography have obtained these high quality files?

I just got this from their channel and this is what they posted

"Yes, we surely would like to explain this but with a detailed explaination.
p.s: We have not used a fake team
Our team is highly experienced and a reputed one.
Also we would like to know about honeybrownphotography.com a bit more as they are actually selling the photos of our team members.
We will update the community in less than an hour."

So let's give them a chance I am in their signature campaign and also want to know if they can explain all of this but thanks for posting this so we can investigate if they are legit or not.
