I had some suspicion when I saw they cloned another p2p exchange, and they acted a nit strange.

These doubts are like a lifeline from falling into the traps of scammers. We must believe our suspicions and support them with some research that will help us either use the platform or avoid it. There are many sites that impersonate and clone well-known platforms, and they may use similar domain names, steal or imitate their templates, and even plagiarize the content of the official websites. We must verify carefully before making a rushed decision that could cost us our money on these fraudulent sites.

I have already supported the flag,, and I hope this topic becomes a warning sign for anyone considering trying their service.

The OpenMonero project is still going strong and holding up pretty well against the baseless claims coming from some so-called "trusted" community members. I've noticed a few of these trusted folks on BitcoinTalk spreading misleading info, like accusations of plagiarism and exit scams. I've been open and transparent about the hack and those plagiarism claims from the start. Even with all the flags on my account, do you really think that changes anything? These accusations are completely unfounded and lack any real proof. Honestly, you can't damage my reputation because I’m all about transparency, and my vendors keep praising the support I provide.

I have no interest in exit scams. If I did, I'd be asking for pre-funding for every published offer, which I’m not. I’m also not trying to create a monopoly. If I was, I wouldn’t have open-sourced both the frontend and backend, and I've given proper credit to LocalMonero on the official site. Yet, you keep spreading false claims about a legit, independent community project. Without solid proof, your accusations mean nothing. Nobody cares about your gut feelings.

My aim is to raise awareness and teach folks that decentralized exchanges aren’t automatically more secure than regular sites. In some cases, like Haveno, they can even be more dangerous because of pre-funding and rug puller bots. Keep spreading your baseless stories, honestly, it just amuses me.
