So what's your suggestion then?

I think anyone with half a mind realizes that most ICOs/altcoins are super scammy, so what's your point? Of course there are some noobs who invest without even reading the white paper but what can you do?

Ignore them ?

Oh and..
Yeah there was a piss coin of sorts and good god did this place argue about it.
It of course unraveled hard and there is now a long scam topic here in the scam section.
Then we all move on to the next stupid bullshit scam coin and bicker all over again.
I just repeats over and over..

If you have been here enough years watching you really build up a picture of the usual suspects at work playing behind the scenes pulling strings.
Something new users here would be oblivious to.

Oh and "Piss Coin" was a parody coin/topic idea of sorts of URO.
There is a topic in the Altcoin section here you can find via Google for it.
There was also a coin called "Shit Coin" that was actually made too.
Rape coin existed as well..

For example.. check out Torcoin.

Then notice how it was morphed into DEEP ONION. Cheesy

Wow, there was a piss coin? Now that was just ridiculous. I wonder how many people lost money there. Kinda reminiscent of the Nigerian Prince scheme. Designed to find the gullible.

Though I think even the smarter ones would take risks investing in these ICOs in hopes that some would make it to trading so they can dump it.

You all probably seen my posts and they are always negative.
Most of you are actually noobs though and came here for one reason.. profits.
So you know squat.

But i am curious do you have any idea just how scammy this is behind the scenes and through out history ?

I have confronted and caught a LOT of idiots pulling scammy coin launches.
They get mouthy.. attack.. deny it.. dump and then go into hiding.
Over and over..
Do you all really think they leave ?
Of course not they create a new account launch another coin and blend into the noob crowd.

I could rattle of a huge list of coins exposed where the idiots fought lying their ass off..
..only for them to vanish.

Carbon Coin ring a bell ?
HYP ?
Big claims and BIG plans then.. coin is delisted and they are on the record bragging about profits.
Over & over..

Unless you have been here like me for 5 fucking years watching stunts like URO (the piss coin) you probably have no idea.

So how legit do you all think this crap is ?

I have for years heard guys rattle of a list saying what they think makes a coin (startup) legit.
First off they say the dev's IDENTITY being known.
What like this guy ?

We KNOW who he is and did ALL ALONG.. his name is Berni Madoff. Cheesy

Note:
I bet my left nut he has a few noob accounts here. LOL
