tl;dr
I didn't read the whole post of the OP as it is like a huge wall of text coming into my eyes and that hurts me a lot. OP at least make some double spaces between your post to make it clean. Anyway I will just give mine base on the subject.
Frauds and scams are very popular already with crypto. From Bitconnect scam to Centra scam to different exchanges being hacked or scammed. I saw so many hacks and scams happened in crypto world already in the past 3 years and I already have a basis whether a coin is a scam or not. New projects right now are the highest chances of it being a scam because scammers want to scam newbie investors and they can do it thru launching a scam project. Either way, just be knowledgeable and do some research before investing on different coins or projects.
