It is unfortunate that our fellow community members are so quick to jump to conclusions. Indeed, the brand new status of my account indicates nothing else other than, well, that it wasnt made long ago. Everything above that is wild speculation which has no rational basis not much unlike the numerous conspiracy theories on Politics & Society Board.

Luckily weve nonetheless been able to gather enough reasonable members of the community for our Experts program and now are closing it in terms of this forum. However theres still an opportunity to become a member of our speakers circle which would allow you to gain pre-release access to articles that are to be published and be the first one to comment on them.

Is it okay for fellow community members to quickly jump to conclusions as to what entity is or is not a scam based on if a 0.4 BTC press release fee is paid?

CoinTelegraph is always keen to bring to readers attention anything suspicious in crypto-industry and beyond [unless rogue entities pay us our standard press release fee of 0.4 BTC]

I've an idea: I'll pen a press release about my linked-to website offering up quantum computers that operate on solar power monkey shit and see if they'll print the article upon paying the 0.4 BTC fee.

First experience with cryptocurrencies

Nathan first read Satoshis white paper in July 2009 and began using Bitcoin in November of the same year.

Let me guess, Nathan, in the later part of 2009 you were using-cum-trading bitcoins with Satoshi Nakamoto, Hal Finney (Mr. Popsicle), Marshal Long (Bitcoin Prince), Maria Jones' fellow New Yorker Nick Spanos (Mr. Bicycle), Leroy "Truthful" Fodor and fellow toiler bowl cleaner buddy (Bubba) in South Carolina, Craig Steven "Satoshi" Wright, and perhaps John Fitzpatrick, all on BitcoinTalk when this forum had at most 20 users, eh?

I wonder what the fees are for a rogue entity to be included on Cryptor Trust.

This company has not listed any contacts yet.

I'd say that's par for the course.
