it is so easy to say someone is a scammer, and way much harder to understand how much effort has to be put in order to develop a coin, if it is not an obvious copy of another one. I wonder, if any of the people that complain in this thread were ever in the dev shoes, or can imagine what it means. I am not saying here that SHOPx takeover was run as it should be. Looking from today's perspective, putting 10x increase in the thread name seems not the best option, to say the least. But, I also see how this coin was developed, how much effort has been put in order to provide game arcade and all the rest of services (including 1BTC giveaway) and still the response from the community was low. That explains to me, partially, BCTS's desperation to bring more attention to the topic.
On the other hand, I must remind that anybody of us in here is solely responsible for his/her investment decisions and prior to investing a research about the coin is a must, as is to limit the amount of the money you invest to such you can afford to lose.
Oh commin the "Warning 10x price hike" title was totally crooked. Then the "I will update everyone in 30min post", then a half assed pitty post then locks thread?
It looks pretty dang shady, honest people dont do crap like that, read into peoples behavior more. Also the "they cannot help develop coin till January" yet his title and statements were about investing and money. Also why wouldn't he just say I need to think if I want to wait till January or focuses on a different avenue for shopX.
He built it up till the very end yesterday for a reason logically. I am not going to waste my time trying to prove that reason but im sure its financial gain. He has developed a coin that is trading, he could have cashed in anything, so when people keep chiming he spent 1 BTC. Whoopie crap, $500. Prolly traded his coin for BTC hence costing him nothing.
I just dont like the crooked actions up till the end. Sleazy and Immature. Ive only been in Alt community 1 month and already sick of the amount of "devs" that are either crooks, or poor unprofetional people who crate coin and ask for money or give promises before any solid professional business plans
PS. I gambled $15, I dont care about that, I care about his actions total piss off, I feel bad for anyone who invested a decent amount.
