Re: [ANN] [GEO] GeoCoin | GIS & GeoTechnologies

One short question. If you can answer me that question satisfactory, I will buy a siginificant amount of Geocoins.
How do you solve the problem that the GPS-position can be faked with software as well as hardware?

This is a good question. I have a Jailbroken iPhone and can successfully spoof my GPS on the Geocoin app.

How do you plan to tackle this?

We have built some functionality to detect people who try and spoof their GPS locations and when caught those users are banned instantly.

We have banned 74 users to date who attempted to spoof their GPS position.

Just like to add when i was spoofing, i never collected any GEO coins. I live in QLD Australia and those 5 GEO coins that are still there and the only collectable GEO coins within a 20 minute drive from my house, have not been collected yet 😄

Thanks for clarifying that, and I had already assumed that based on your description. As I stated, those who are caught spoofing their GPS locations will be banned instantly. No if's ands or buts, so don't even try it!!!
