In summary, it's pretty much just a get rich scheme to enrich the founder.
Aren't all alt coins? Can't say I've heard of this one though or think I've seen their signatures.
Eh, maybe. The quickest example that comes to mind is Dash, but I have to say that some altcoins would work much better as a method to buy and sell things than good ol' bitcoin, whether they were made to enrich the devs or not--so they're not all useless or worthless IMO.
I've never heard of this Hex thing either, and since I have signatures blocked I haven't seen any advertising from its campaigners.
So while I'm not exactly happy to see such a wanton moneygrab being advertised via signature on the forum, at least there is a quality control element that only Hhampuz and a select handful of others can provide.
I agree, and I've also voiced my opinion that the campaign manager shouldn't be held responsible if the project turns out to be a scam. And it's not like this would be the first signature campaign that's advertised something shady--we've had
plenty of that over the years involving a number of campaign managers (or the absence of one in the case of Secondstrade and the first Yobit campaign).
