Is anyone investing in standard coin now a days?

I think everyone was chased off at this point. It's too bad.

Now this is weird, I though it was me who can't understand the system and the only one "crying" there, ranting and whatnot, while everybody else can see the light and the legitness of this coin.
Weird weird werd! I'm so totally surprised.

lol, exactly as I predicted few pages back. ghibly gives this guy negative trust for no reason at all, DEV has big red warning sings under his name, newcomers that come to the thread see that DEV has negative trust, they don't check details to see it is only because of one person. Then few days later ghibly comes back here to say he was right all the time because everyone stopped investing in the coin!
Yes, I am totally surprised also ghibly! Man, you must be so much fun at parties and have so many friends.

But to give you a serious answer Ghibly, read on. Italian is your native language, but your english is quite good so i am assuming you are an educated person that has a good job. So let's have a serious discussion instead of trolling. You are blaming DEV of running Ponzi scheme, right? Now let us look at the definition of Ponzi scheme.

A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation where the operator, an individual or organization, pays returns to its investors from new capital paid to the operators by new investors, rather than from profit earned by the operator. Operators of Ponzi schemes usually entice new investors by offering higher returns than other investments in the form of short-term returns that are either abnormally high or unusually consistent. The perpetuation of the high returns requires an ever-increasing flow of money from new investors to sustain the scheme

DEV is not paying us from capital gained by new investors and DEV is also not the only place where we can get trade STD as on Bittrex I can trade my coins for BTC.
DEV did not promise any short-term returns, in fact on his homepage he is talking about years before we have profit
STD also doesn't need an ever-increasing flow of money from new investors to sustain the scheme. First round 16 BTC was invested, second round it could be that only 8 BTC is invested and third round only 4 BTC.

And most importantly, DEV could have just collected IPO money and ran away, he didnt and paid us the STD coins.
So DEV and STD do not comply to any of the main features that a Ponzi scheme has. Also atm your negative trust is not hurting the DEV, in fact one could think you are DEVs sockpuppet as you are now helping the DEV to dissappear with all the BTC. As he is tagged as scammer already he has nothing to lose.

So just be reasonable here, give this guy a chance and if he makes one mistake then leave a negative trust.
thanks!

So right!
But let me add another point: You didn't only accuse the dev of running a Ponzi scheme, you also disturb the development of this coin and harm the investors. There's no evidence of a fraudulent system so far.

Destroying the coin by negative postings and abusing the feedback system is fraudulent. You're not meant to give negative feedback unless you have TRADED with the other person and LOST COINS. What we need is an admin to delete all of ghibly's posts.
