It's time for the community to find a way to prevent scammers launch new shitcoins. Scammers launch a new coin, sell the premine or put something in the code, get rich, then leave the coin, the day after, they launch a new shitcoin and the process goes on.
Please share your ideas and suggestions to solve this situation.
The problems and solutions which are discussed here are listed below. You can discuss about them, or add some new cases to each list by discussing them here.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I. Problems List:
1- Unsafe Premine
2- Hidden Premine in The Code
3- Uncommitted Devs (In addition to the two above cases, they easily leave their coin if it has any problem)
4- Bag-holder Situation (Bag-holders defend their coin, even it's scam) --> Is this a problem in your opinion?
5- Market Manipulation (Pumps and dumps of new coins)
6- Wallets With Virus And Malware
----------------------------------------------------------------
The following list is a list of suggestions which need to be discussed more. The numbers of this list are not related to the above numbers.
II. Solutions List:
1- Escrow premine (by well-known forum members or exchanges)
2- Another forum with BASIC rules for devs
3- Devs use their original usernames. (Stand behind your product!)
4- Crypto Association/Foundation/Group

5- Certification Group: A new coin can be checked by a group to be confirmed before launch.
6- A new exchange made by reputable members of bitcointalk.

III. Other Topics:
1- Do you think some scam devs are related to some exchanges, hashrate rental websites, and pool opertaors?

Obviously the scammers will post bullshit here, and prevent this topic to be fruitful. So, I've made it self-moderated.
