RE: Belated due diligence confirms Skycoin is not a scam

in #cryptocurrency6 years ago

So if you follow the link on the above skywire forum, you will find a forum that looks good at first glance. But after you spend an hour looking at the "who's online" page you will realize all 13 people are fake, it is a script that every minute updates with fake data to -make it look busy. The pages people are looking at, are not worth looking at. For example... a Guest is viewing diordna's reputation. So when you go that page... you see it states it has 0 positives 0 negatives and 0 nuetrals... And yes the script changes the name every few minutes and yes, the who's online looks cool and looks busy. Don't take the time to look at real activity on the board either. Like when were posts made, how many posts made per day, or how many comments on the posts. Some of it looks real. There may have been a bounty to go register at some point, and there was a giveaway of skycoins that required like 500 people to comment on a thread. But this is not real fundamental value building activity. There are only a couple of forum threads that pass the smell test. (Like the Raspberry pi thread). Now I know bots can crawl all over the web, but also logged onto the page with another computer. It did not properly report that computer as viewing the thread it was looking at. So by red flag detector kept going off wherever I looked. So reader beware, the above mentioned forum as proof of an active community, at very least has bots -not real people crawling creating fake activity. I just spent an hour of my life, -I can never get back. watching a website fake "who's online." This brings me to questions the fundamental values of Skycoin.
