The way I see it, the smart argument is not even between the main developer is a scammer or not. It's obvious he's not: no scammer will ever put so much time and effort to develop all the software and technology behind a scam. If I was a scammer I'd just quickly give coins away, quickly hype up the unaware public and sell million as soon as the first spike starts building up. Done. I'm rich. See ya all later.
The (non-trolling, smart) argument is whether the dev has a POTENTIAL to scam through the current, temporary, centralisation. Yes he does. In that way you could say he's like a bank CEO, granted. At the moment: he did express desire to decentralise and, to be honest, I'd rather trust an engineer and a fellow nerd who knows what it's like to work for everyone's benefit rather than a spoiled bank CEO whose only job is to keep rich people rich.
sorry but again this is not the main issue, the main issue is the misleading of the Israeli bitcoin community after the 6 founders (most of them from the Israeli bitcoin community) together agreed to make a multi sig and than after a month Dan refuses and lost the trust of the team.
but this was long ago, its a real shame that nobody let you guys know.
the other problem is by misleading you guys by not telling you that the second phase was a colossal fail and no firm accepted Isracoin.
the thing you should ask yourself is why didn't you know about all that and thought that everything is ok when most of the Isracoin team and the Israeli community have long left the ship.
the american guy behave and try to treat the public and the community like an asshole.
the problem is distrust in the guy that hold now the 400M coins, this is the reason that there will probably be a true Israeli coin soon.
I'm listening, what else can you tell us?
And what about the promise of exchanging (for free) israbit for istacoin?
If there are plans to kick in a new israeli coin, then why is it so secretive?
If it is all true, it should be in the open and not just bits and pieces here and there...
Let them (israbit) open a web site and spread their manifest and agenda.
As a side-note, if you want to convey your message, you should change the tone of your voice.
You sound more like a rebel than a businessman - that may be a helpful advice to you.
