Pretty sure this whole thing is a scam/pump and dump. So many inconsistencies. In the Medium article linked below, "Daniel Treccia" (Probably Vlad2Vlad) says that Open SSL is the only way forward if cryptos are to be integrated into Visa cards and whatever, since only that is compliant with the "PCI DSS 1.2.3":

https://medium.com/@danieltreccia/reminder-about-visa-mastercard-bitcoin-debit-cards-bd7db09b60e5

But if you read the documents on PCI DSS 1.2.3, it clearly states multiple times that SSL is very unsecure:

"Note that some protocol implementations (such as SSL, SSH v1.0, and early TLS) have known vulnerabilities that an attacker can use to gain control of the affected system."

"Note: SSL/early TLS is not considered strong cryptography and may not be used as a security control, except by POS POI terminals that are verified as not being susceptible to known exploits and the termination points to which they connect as defined in Appendix A2."

Furthermore, Daniel several times cites and links to a white paper from zerocoin.org, and uses it in his argumentation. However, that white paper doesn't even pertain to I0C, but is instead the "old version" of Zcash, as they clearly state on their webpage:

From their webpage: "Zerocash, the protocol that succeeded Zerocoin, is being developed into a full-fledged digital currency, Zcash."

Here's the link to the white paper from zerocoin.org, which Daniel/Vlad2Vlad "thinks" (wants you to think) is the white paper of I0C (which actually doesn't even have a white paper):

http://zerocoin.org/media/pdf/ZerocoinOakland.pdf

And here's the articles written by Daniel/Vlad2Vlad, where he talks about the white paper:

https://medium.com/@danieltreccia/jeff-garziks-met-comes-from-the-zero-i0-address-d3ca6d8613c2

https://medium.com/@danieltreccia/the-real-bitcoin-i0c-hash-160-matches-dvc-public-key-output-to-bitcoin-8d6262f2c9e2

I like how he in one of the articles writes something to the effect of: "Nobody reads white papers nowadays" - while he himself brings up an entirely different white paper in several articles, that doesn't even pertain to I0C. Wakey wakey! Cheesy

And then there's the similar Hash 160 he talks about (ba507bae8f1643d2556000ca26b9301b9069dc6b) :

I might not be a dev, programmer or even a miner, but I'm not an idiot. Since I0C and BTC are being merge mined, it should be logical that there's a correlation between some hashes, addresses and what not. The two chains have to somehow communicate/work together in order for merge mining to be possible. So there's nothing weird about that at all.

And then there's the unsecure https on izerocoin.org - I'm not gonna download and/or unzip anything from that page, and neither should you guys. The wallets probably contain viruses etc. so Vlad2Vlad or whoever is also behind this (could be more people), can install keyloggers and what not on your computers, so they can drain you totally. Be careful.

To all you potential victims out there - think about this: BTC has existed for almost 10 years now.. Isn't it a bit weird that none of the brilliant minds, or big miners or anyone at all have discovered this, if this was actually true? It's a bit like the Flat Earth theory.. Just random numbers and a lot of mumbo jumbo and buzzwords, but no actual substance - and then unknowing noobs only scratching the surface fall for it and pump the coin, and Vlad2Vlad will of course then dump it on them.

I also fell for it (Yes, I'm also a noob), but quickly got a bit suspicious, since it's too good to be true, so I started digging into it. Fortunately, I was able to sell at a small profit.

man be quiet...

I'm not fool, I had thougt the same as you in this months.

IF and I say IF is a scam,

yes it's really a good job, well for they,

this big effort for how much? millions? this coin had better time in value than now, so probably there was better time to scam people...or they will pump the price and than dump? well you still have time to ride the pump and sell! However at this price you could do a small bet with really high cap.
Have you fear of loose a bunch of hundreds?

I am more with of the truth writed in the medium articles by Daniel, the post and riddles of Vlad

I have a technical background but I can't find by myself the final proof tha let me scream eureka!

The technological problems that Daniel show are common problems in IT fields both software and hardware, they are everywhere and is a continous fight (cpu meltdown flaw for example?).

Anyway remeber the first thing:

Don't risk money you can't afford to lose.

Everything Jim is saying is similar enough to be misleading. If you are smart you won't take the bait. Jim, this is exactly why I do not answer your questions - the intention of yours is to mislead. I can tell that right away. My intentions are to present facts and if the public picks up on those facts they could have a life changing amount of money in the end.

As for Vlad and I being the same person. It's awfully weird how much I'd be talking to myself each day. I won't address that. But if you want a video of me I have no issues there either. I am who I say I am.

I came along in 2017/18. Vlad's posts intrigued me. They date back to 2013. My research goes further based off of his and since we began to directly speak in May 2018 its become even better and more proven with facts.

BTC is a ledger. It does not mint its own coins.

26 journal entries of proof aren't enough?

Thanks Koabr and Buzhou for your support. It doesn't matter if you buy or not - it is the truth and the truth will come out in time.
