I have trouble understanding how people can almost ignore legitimat coins and then invest big in scam coins or, I don't know what this is, a semi-scam?
If you have a group of people from 5 different places around the world who are developing a project, and you don't even know exactly what is happening behind the scene, who is doing what, who handles the money or how that money will be used and you still invest, then you probably wanted to lose your money and not invest it.
I mean really, why on earth would they need 3000 BTC for this project? Of course they can spend that amount easily, but in reality they got multiple times what they needed and people didn't find that suspicious? Well, a few individuals did got suspicious, that's why this thread was started, but people still largely ignored all the warning signs and now they feel scamed?

There will always be scammers, not just here, everywhere, but if someone want's to be an investor and not just a sheep for shearing, some investigation should be done first, because crying later will not help...
