true! But it seems that this asset is not from the devs themselfs, but from the most active Heat member "gh2" on the Heat slack and publisher of heatnodes.org . I will report
more I will try to use this exchange, because I have skin in both projects.
Yes HEAT is real and the devs can't be responsible for people getting scammed by unverified assets - that is people's own mistake for not understanding what they are doing and how the exchange works. The big problem with HEAT is that you are reliant on a gateway (no way around that yet) and there is virtually no liquidity. If people are that desperate to sell they should use the OTC thread with escrow. Funny thing is they will likely be regretting it later like the people that sold ether at $1.
