Kuzmin always owned Mass, he never bought it out.
And the developers were savvy to this, including ThePianist. They KNEW that Kuzmin owned Mass from the get go and just went along with posting lies to save face.
Apparently they were told to present it as Mycellium buying out Mass because that made things look better. Well of course lies can look better than truth, you can tell any sort of tall lies you want!
The whole team has basically committed fraudulent actions at this point.
^What is Kuzmin's relationship to Mycellium?
He owns Mycellium, apparently.
Or at the very least is their CEO.
Are out of ur mind? This is the stupidest statement I have read in a year. According to ur words kuzmin, surgically changed half-human half-idiot and Pianist control mass network. Do u hear urself? Maybe u think that kuzmin is muslim in addition to this? U pulled it out of ur ass. U are practicing masked-man fallacy which is forbidden and, moreover, punishable in my location. Educate urself.
Telling people to educate themselves while making tons of spelling errors makes you look like a buffoon. Also none of what you said is any kind of argument at all. But I will do you a favor, as well as everyone else in this thread that can't click back 7 pages and post the quote here for all to see.
Please reply here and explain what happened to the project and our money.
Ok, about money. Technical part:
1. All wallets were under Kuzmin's control since ICO start, AFAIK, nobody else has any private keys.
2. ICO website was developed by Mycelium team (Mycelium Gear as a merchant service).
Business part: Kuzmin told that all funds were spent in January, and he stopped paying salaries. But I have no details. He told this "news" to product and project manager (why they won't get salaries...)
So you did not found the project? You were just hired to write some basic software? Then they dropped you because funds were gone?
Yes, project founders are Oschepkov and Kuzmin.
There were fake news:
https://blog.mass.network/mycelium-ceo-acquires-mass-network/I was very angry, because it was 100% untruth.
But Kuzmin told me that this announce is for PR only, so he could officially become a CEO. I decided not to quit, because everything looked ok, and devs were working. And I wanted to make a release of software.
Why they dropped me in Dec? I don't know, may be because I had so many questions...
But the other team members continue to work on project and worked until he stopped paying anything.
As you can see here Pianist admits to knowing this was dishonest but chose to withhold it from the investors. (To cover his own ass)
@pianist are you not angry with these two fraudsters?
Why did you not come out and tell us this before?
Yes, I became angry several times, but there were no scam intention. For example, Kuzmin told me in Aug that Charlie Shrem will become CEO of Mass, so I decided to join the project. Of course, Charlie rejected his offer.
As a tech guy, I was responsible only for tech questions. Of course, I was unhappy when Oschepkov asked me to create BCT thread, but the reason was that new "official" Mass account could not post images.
There were many-many other bad things, at last I decided to quit. But devs were optimistic, they asked me not to bite the project, they were going to make a good product.
I don't know what to do now, but I don't know anyone who can contact Kuzmin or his partner Oschepkov (Kontegna).
Everyone involved with this stuff is incredibly dishonest.
