blocknet may have overreached making this claim, highly unlikely ethereum would associate itself with blocknet scam if they have looked into its history. hopefully they notice and disassociate themselves from it before any damage is done to the Ethereum brand.
Yeah, why dont you go tell'em?.. iam sure they are a bunch of retards who dont do their research themselves..
looks like yet another marketing attempt from blocknet to ride ethereum name, it would be more believable if their was something official from the ethereum side like here
https://blog.ethereum.org/ as it is its just more attempts to pump blocknet coin with misleading articles. :\
anyway article was updated form earlier, its an Etherium devgrant that the blocknet devs applied for and is funding(aka free money) for any project that applies to etherium and manages to pass itself off as something for public benefit and provide some value to etherium core. Doesnt say they won it yet so even if they do what do they need the extra money for? Already suckered a huge amount of BTC from their ICO, why would it be necessary to apply for more funding?
