Just because the 1xbit scammers pay or claim to pay signature campaign fees to some of the most duplicitous sock-puppet operators, it does not nothing to distance them from the word "scam"
1xbit not pays only "some" of signature campaign participants, but pays everyone, and has been doing it for many months. Why should I doubt the honesty of someone who has been honest with me for many months? This is my personal opinion and everyone has the right to agree or disagree with it. However, you cannot deny me the right to have my own opinion.
