Most of the FUD comes from newbie accounts (and some older members too), which are second accounts to (presumably) HIVE ICO token holders.
They're just protecting their own assets, as Populous could blow them out of the water and side track their investment.
It happens in many other threads that have competition. Fact of life. Like spiders in your home or negative political ads on tv. Ignore and deal with it.
yes, we dont have to be affected with these FUDs. these are all part of the game.. of the competition. we hjust have to ignore these and trust the devs, the project. thats the best way though.
