The accusations seem valid advisor is not a guaranty that the project will be successful or even legit, there's a lot of advisors who just want money from the project, they should first address the scam accusations before people trust this project, not even Ver's name can have an impact on a tarnished project.
Roger ver becomes famous caused by he was included as a part of the early buyers of bitcoin who becomes the bitcoin millionaire but he was having zero skill at the development. BCH is an example about how he was doing something shady. I thought advisor never bring a big hype.
I agree, advisors will not have much influence on their projects, even if we see there are many popular advisers who have handled many projects, but are the projects they handle successful all? certainly not. Becoming a well-known advisor will not ensure that the project he is handling will be successful, especially if your word is correct that Roger Ver does not have sufficient experience in development.
