I found out Yobit listed Quebecoin (QBC) as I scrolled through Twitter this weekend. Please understand that the currency has been maintained by my family over the past 18 months and we had kept it up in order to do a rebrand/update and use it within a cultural context.
Here are 10 facts about Quebecoin (QBC) in ENGLISH so that people understand the nature of this crypto-currency before investing.
1. Quebecoin was launched with an IPO on April 1st 2014. Within a few month we realised this was a scam. We (new interim developer and me) forked the coin, KILLED the 50% pre-mine (20M coins) and re-launched it on July 14th 2014. We invested in man hours the entire value of the Market Cap to do this (CAD 35K)
2. I have investigated the original developer who used a pseudonym and used the addresses of other people in official documents. He is guilty of financial fraud in this jurisdiction. The original developer has run away with the 20+ BTC of IPO. Be really careful about WHO you are dealing with when it comes to this coin. Double check all sources.
3. Quebecoin has, from the most part been kept alive via mining by 4 people. Listing on Yobit is wonderful because it lets MORE people own Quebecoin and diminishes the problems with people holding huge bags.
4. As a community, we have a few million coins which are promised for development projects and other things. This is meant to make up for destroying the 50% pre-mine that the original developer refused to co-sign.
5. There are only 10M QBC out there, not 33M !!
6. I have secured all the trademarks, domain names and social media account, and paid for a new logo for this coin. The only thing that is left is finishing the code update.
7. The new name for the currency is BILINGUAL with a French Canadian spin and I will strive to produce bilingual info for this coin even though it is a tedious pain in the ass.
8. I appreciate it being listed on Yobit because I cannot legally sell Quebecoin in my jurisdiction. Enjoy! While Quebecoin (QBC) is listed, it means it's rated on coinmarketcap.com which is nice too.
9. The current value of #QBC on Yobit (275 Satoshis) is at par with the last listed day on Bittrex in 2014. The wallet and Android app work great still. See the OP.
10. There are plenty of plans for this crypto-currency that are going to be very Quebec-centric (French Canadian Culture and History centric) and will happen regardless of this crypto's listed status or value.
BONUS FACT
I am Marie-Lynn Richard, founder of the French crypto blog Circonference.ca and @mlrichard on Twitter. I take care of this crypto with ZERO money, budget or time. The interim developer is close to me BUT he is SUPER busy with his day job and life. This crypto moves at the speed of non-anonymous people with day jobs who don't spend ANY time on crypto forums.
Have fun and be nice !
