5. Yes it is run by the NXT people
Unless you believe that David Sonstebo was BCNext (which is totally implausible), he had nothing to do with NXT. Please stop comparing this IOTA garbage to NXT. Don't drag NXT into this ridiculous charade. CfB might have been hired by BCNext, but according to his own statements, he wasn't BCNext either.
CFB would have been BCNext. If he is not BCNext he was still core to the start of NXT. According to his own statements? okay.
I am not picking on NXT any more than I am picking on Bitbay. The people left in these projects are not the scammers. The people who made the huge money are long gone from both. I probably have more NXT than you so I am not saying that project currently is a scam. However a project where the entire minting is given to 21 people is not ideal.
Right now the pumpers and scammers are locked into this iota project. They should not exit with the huge returns whilst others hold the bags this time.
