Full disclosure: My tinfoil hat is strong, double-weaved even! While some of my beliefs may not be widely shared, the common consensus is that things are rarely what the seem on the outside. To that, I've a few questions involving the ICO and rollout and subsequent fiasco currently happening with Electroneum.
*Is it common for an exchange to adopt a coin upon initial release of the blockchain where they reside?
*I understand that developers coins are locked in for a years time. Does this also prohibit them from mining or selling mining profits from pools that they host?
*40 M is one hell of a payday. Enough to hire a security expert or two. Even still, why would security not be a big concern to one of the largest ICO's in history?
*Can a blockchain be locked once live? Given the fact that they apparently had security issues, why wouldn't the chain be locked, again only if able?
Also, I'm not bitter even though I have a bag locked up in the ICO, I've also mined up around 1000 coins but am hodling anyway.
The reddit thread is fairly heavily moderated and questions like these don't get posted and of course nothing through social media will make its way through if even hinting at the negative.
So, what does this community think on the matter?
