I don't think the entire project is a scam, I think unfortunately the bounty campaign went wrong. I didn't receive anything either, it's frustrating, but im not going to go around shouting scam, I'm still hopeful that the platform will redeem this.
'Went wrong'?
Euphemism of the year.
They intentionally did not pay out the vast majority (see the numbers couple posts above) of the useful idiots that helped them to promote their ICO.
They invented bogus criteria to label everyone a cheater.
They insulted their (former) supporters in their ridiculous, novel-length emails.
They can not redeem this.
And any author who trusts them with his book would be a fool, just like we were to promote this rip-off.
I supported them wholeheartedly, because as an author and former publisher I thought their basic concept made sense.
But not now after they showed their true colors (and after some more digging in their background, there is a reason they both look like straight out of 'Once Upon a Time in America', LOL)
also this:
My tokens are showing on etherscan.io. Why should I think it's a scam? It's not listed on an exchange yet which takes time. We were all familiar with their road map. It might be a scam but it might not. Be patient. Why would they go to the trouble of explaining all about the distribution etc if it was a scam? Why not just take the money and run?
Dude. This is your first post, shilling for an obvious rip-off? Ahem...
We have the numbers, the screenshots etc. to back up what we say.
Yes, investors received their tokens.
Yes, a couple people in the bounty program, probably joint venture partners, buddies, etc. were paid.
The rest was not.
Scam.
And regarding the money/ether they raised: wait and see.
ZERO credibility as of now, I would not be surprised if they extended that little 'vacation' they announced, indefinitely...
