Where is the marketing? I doxed the dev team, which wasn't too hard when they post all their LinkedIn. They are big players in the internet marketing industry in England. They can do it for free!?! I even looked up the coins head guy Richard Ells and called his headquarters. I asked the secretary about Electroneum? I was transfered to a guy that asked me how he could help me with my questions. So I asked, "why aren't you marketing this ICO?". He said, "they are and more is coming." Do you see any marketing? WTF.

The ICO starts in 3 days!!

EDIT

No, it is definately not a scam.

They have raised 3 million already.

I was worried about the marketing, but now I see their ads everwhere I go on the internet, so the guy wasnt kidding when he said the marketing is coming!!

Damn!!! Ive never seen a coin hit mainstream news sites!!!

First British Crypto Currency
It has its own BlockChain (open source)
Can be managed all from a mobile app
It has OVER 80,000 + community members
Requires zero technical ability to mine it from your mobile app.
Plenty of financial backing (Richard Ellis) who leads the team is valued at over $50 million himself.

i don't think it's a scam.....

I am British and the fact that Richard Ells (not 'Ellis') has sucked in this many people is embarrassing to me. So being the first British cryptocurrency doesn't mean anything.
The blockchain technology is Cryptonote, specifically Monero, and anyone who has technical knowledge knows that they probably chose the wrong coin to fork, the ring signatures make it very hard to manage and I don't think Electroneum really needs anonymity - anything else would have been better and easier. They didn't write it from scratch as they don't have the capability or knowledge to do so.
A large community of people singing their praises without really understanding the underlying technology doesn't actually help anyone.
A mobile app is a security risk, if people rely on apps alone then if this gets as big as you all think people are going to get hurt. I don't understand how people think anything more complicated than an 'app' is too much effort, basically if you can't be spoon-fed something then it can't be worth doing...
Mobile mining seems to be a way of getting currency for doing nothing - I can see why this would appeal to the entitled masses but it's not a long-term strategy (see BitConnect).
Where on earth did you find that Richard Ells is worth $50 million USD? The ICO raised that - according to Companies House his net worth is about $50k, it's probably more than that but you don't have to look far to realise that he is a marketeer first and foremost with zero blockchain experience - but as soon as you have lots of money you can hire and partner with virtually anyone.

Anyway, maybe not a scam in the malicious sense, but it is a shitcoin. Still, I'll happily ride the hype-wave even if I don't think much of the coin.
