I wanted to make a clear and concise statement about all of this mud slinging going around....

As everybody involved with XC's knows I did numerous freelance projects, some of which Prometheus was involved in, like KeyOS and Halc. Yesterday I was so frustrated with everything that was ALREADY PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE [stated on twitter and in the XC OP/ANN] being portrayed as some type of scam.. Accusing me of being Prometheus, accusing me of being the dev. of numerous coins and half the coins in blocknet...that I simply answered no to any and all questions. None of these allegations are true, I am DAN METCALF and I have never used any other account than ATCSECURE on this forum. Nor did I ever participate into any scam's, nor would I ever... the comments about XC's POW being stopped because I was paid off is a complete fabrication.

What I find most interesting about this amount of FUD is that all the information was already public, and to think that I have all these alias's on this forum is complete insanity.

My full statement on the matter can be viewed at http://www.atcsecure.com/blog/Official_Statement.pdf

Also blocknet's assets and funds will be held in escrow and released as development progress's. Blocknet is not a scam, but a legitimate project and proof of concept code will be available shortly.

Sincerely,

Dan Metcalf

It wasn't public knowledge though. At all. It was only known by a select few in some inner circle of altcoin manipulation.

He did a code review for Halcyon under the pretense that he was an unbiased third party. You don't see the problem with that?

I was an unbiased 3rd party, I didn't write HAL, didn't write cloak [called it a scam] http://pastebin.com/TvJkKiCJ, I'm not some mastermind behind all of these coins as alluded to by several people, instead I'm XC's developer and this all started with SDC [https://gist.github.com/atcsecure/cf6a478ef3169cefdc6d] - Mr Boh is just an upset SDC investor with an axe to grind and now has created this giant conspriancy theory that I am some evil mastermind behind this cartel of coins... nothing could be further from the truth

Now that everything is out in the open it's up to people to make their own judgments of whether your associations are ethical.

I don't think anyone thinks you're the mastermind behind some cartel of coins. I think Prometheus might be, but not you.

People can debate semantics of whether you're involved in a "pump group" or whatever, it doesn't really matter. There is however a trail of destruction left in your path as evidenced by the charts of all these Prometheus coins that you've done reviews for. Responsibility doesn't fall on you alone, but as long as people know the reality of the situation there's really not much more to talk about. This altcoin community takes people who don't know any better and bleeds them dry. This isn't the first time and it won't be the last. People have to learn to research what they're getting themselves in to. And there's only so much you can do, most people here clearly don't care. But at least the truth is out now.
