@trevonjb, It has been noted that you are promoting the idea of purchasing a coin or other financial asset with this and several other of your videos on 3Speak. Where the content creator is offering anything that can be perceived as financial advice by the content consumer, the content creator MUST display an upfront, clear and non mistakable Financial Disclaimer.

Content creators who are providing any content that can be perceived as financial advice shall provide an upfront Financial Disclaimer which makes it clear that the content is not presented, intended or offered as financial advice and is not to be used as the basis for financial decisions. The Financial Disclaimer shall also make it clear that it places sole accountability and responsibility on the content consumer if they make financial decisions based on the information obtained from your content.

3Speak shall shortly update its Terms and Conditions for content creators to incorporate this requirement into their content. Any further violations of this condition shall result in your removal from being able to upload content to 3Speak.

We would also like to note that following previous scandals you had been involved in, we reviewed your content and saw that such videos as the 'Crypto Weather' were a sign of reform to your content creation style. We thought you should get the benefit of the doubt and have a chance to post to 3speak. We did not expect you to upload financial advice without disclaimers, and you can see from the comments below that this has somewhat upset several prominent members of the Steem community.

Please appreciate that we are accountable to the Steem community as this is where we choose to run our platform and want to make sure that this project gets off to a good start as we slowly expand our creator pool.

Flagged for reward disagreement and shame on the 3speak team. My support may not of counted for much, but you just lost it.

Flagged as well. Scammers do not sit well in my book.

@theycallmedan Really?!

What was the logic behind this? His content is controversial because he literally defrauded people.
So you approved him to post on 3speak?
What is the logic behind this?

You clearly dont give a a voice to everyone that applies but you give a voice to a crook?

Id love to hear the logic behind this decision.

So when you say buy steem is OK and when you say buy bitconnect is not OK?
Buying coins is peoples decision. We're not kids.

He was a champion for Bitconnect who fooled many victims, we all know how that turned out. Once a scammer, always a scammer.

So I fooled many victims giving them the advice to buy steem at $4 as well? What a scammer I am. Shame on me.
Don't get me wrong here. I'm not defending him. I bought a lot of bitconnect coins myself. And magic dice, BTC latina, Hero, and... fill the blank.
No one forced or fooled me to buy. That's my point.

Oh, I forgot to mention. I bought a lot of Pal too. I didn't just get them for free.

You're making the mistake by comparing an opensource system and open market trading to an "it's a secret bot trading giving you daily illogical returns just keep referring people and we will all be rich by doing nothing" pyramid hyip scheme.

How this is still something anyone can compare to legitimate cryptocurrencies is beyond me.

It's an easy answer.
90% of the population never heard of cryptocurrencies. The other 9% don't know the difference between BTC and other coins. That's why things like this scam happening.
For me is perfectly clear. I just wanted to point out how clueless average user is.
And the guy is theoretically still innocent until convicted as far as I understand the laws.
I'm not defending him though.

Well he used our chain to promote the scam and probably got a lot of users to lose a lot of money which he himself directly benefited from and then bought steem with it after probably and pretended to have lost his btc in a "hack". So I think some downvotes are only fair.

Steem and Bitconnect are like oranges and bananas, no comparison. Sadly, not everyone does their due diligence like we do, that's why pyramidal schemes like Bitconnect are/where successful. Btw my comment wasn't aimed at you, I never insinuated you were a scammer. Trevon is a known scammer, the FBI was on his ass, yet he comes back to Steem and everyone gives him the open arms. It's beyond comprehension.

P.S. Sad to lose your witness vote, thanks for the support while it lasted.

I know that your comment was not about me. Don't worry.
And if you read my last post you'll see that I removed my vote from almost all witnesses. It's not related to your comment. I have a bit higher standards.
It's related to the HF21 and to my attempt to a fresh start.

You can buy whatever you want. What you cant do is defraud people by lying to them, cheating them out of their money etc.
I wouldnt want to live in the world where that is allowed.
Surprises me that you would.
