It's their fault they got scammed and you get to keep the BTC and charge them over again for something they thought they were getting the first time. I see how it is. It's their fault and no responsibility for this can be pointed in your direction at all.
I take your point though that it is open to the abuse you suggest.
It seems you have little faith this person you went into business with after all.
I wonder how many vidz have been confiscated in this manner away from investors.
I hope this ICO is water tight for the investors because your empathy for YOUR previous investors is pretty poor... from you and the escrow.
If you're going to put words in my mouth, don't expect a proper response when you're not even reading them.
I love hearing this accusation that I have no empathy for people who lost money but last I checked there's a 50% swap so that people who would rather support my project
and reap the rewards my project produces they can do so without spending any more money than they already have.
Such empathy, very fashion, so crypto... yeah you start a new ICO get some Bitcoins and then let them burn their coins from
the project that you walked out on(giving them no chance to sell said tokens on vidz) which also raised Bitcoins which went to you not including any vidz you held.
But sure, its easy to be empathetic when it pays the bills. How about starting a new project and give the coins out for free to anyone holding an address in vidz? Not raising funds with a new ICO and not asking them to burn another coin? Hell you could even give yourself 5% of the staked coins.
Oh yeah thats right because doing that doesn't get you more Bitcoins.
A real man would not charge investors that just got burned. But thats just a subjective opinion, carry on.
I'm not here to debate what "a real man does" and I'm not sure who's been feeding you information but it sounds like you have half the story? I don't possess all of what was raised in that crowdfund and it's not my fault that project is in shambles especially when I wasn't the leader of it. Unfortunately, many people aren't willing to exactly work for free and I'm not talking about myself here but referring to the costs of graphic designers, other programmers, lawyers, etc.
And about selling...
I'm not here to give people trading advice either but the word hedge comes to mind.
