I downloaded this app when it was launched. Upon looking at your thread, I am convinced that it is scam. Yet, I don't want to accuse them without their launch in exchange. Who knows? Even the impossible mission in going to the moon was did by humans. But this is a good thread so that other users may warn in case all allegations are true.
It is already being traded in one Chinese exchange in the form of IOU token at $0.348900 looks good even if the token is not yet distributed
this is a big temptation for people to mine, but when they distributed the token I doubt it can maintain the price it will definitely crash the price, people are mining it for the money, it's easy money so they think it is.
