That reddit article is 23 days old already. Why is it suddenly such a big deal?
For most people in this thread it's news. And I think everybody is on edge because of the recent uncertainty surrounding ICOs and crypto in general. Then you have Aventus getting sold out in 7 minutes while the EventChain sale is not doing as well. Whether or not it's FUD, the fact that the EventChain team is keeping quiet instead of clearing the air is making them nervous.
Exactly, we are not talking here about few bucks, big amount of money is involved and future investors need to know a full story before trusting the devs and investing.
The idea is one thing but too fully realize it you need a trustworthy team behind it.
When you are putting or planning to put money in a project, you must make sure you do so in a promising idea, one that will eventually give you profits, so the team of the project has the job to ensure that your investment is in good hands and will make the project succeed, so that involves ensuring that your own team is good at their job, they must have credibility, so they need to be constantly active to placate this comments, and accusations, if not, they will just lose more of their reputation, i hope they are on par with this and soon they show up to help clarify this.
