I'm no expert in this story but from what I've read/been told ZeroVert was just a scam pump and dump coin. And he is no longer fully associated with VTC, just one of the creators. He expressed interest to help recently, since supposedly he still loves Vertcoin; but allegedly he has created about three pump and dump scam coins before bringing back Zcoin (same code as the original Zerocoin).

Ehhhh he probably watched completely transparent branded Dash/Dark explode after he beat them to confidential transactions.

In addition to their bugscammine & massively cutting inflation post social contract & said "fuck it.  I'm gonna get rich."  Guess I shouldn't blame him too much.

I've poked around and saw reference to Vert doing the first atomic crosschain transactions with litecoin but couldn't find much else.  Any idea who the current devs are and if there is truth to the rumor?

The current devs are listed on the ANN and also https://vertcoin.org/wp/the-team/

Why no real world names for the devs? Who are they really? Are they trying to hide behind psyudonames? Looks sketchy.

Hi Kris,

From you mona.co website, I found the Linkedin profiles from all your team members. Why are you the only one that has any mention at all of "Monaco", and no one else from the team mentions Monaco at all?? And in your Linkedin profile you only mention "Monaco" at the top, nothing under experience and no link to the Monaco website? Why is that? Is it because Monaco is a Scam??!!!

From their webpage we can see the links to the team members's linkedin profiles. Only CEO Kris Marszalek even mentions Monaco on his Linkedin profile, no-one else from the team! And even on Kris Marszalek's Linkedin profile it only mentions "Monaco" at the top, nothing under experience and no link to the Moncao website. Scam!!!

Artos,

At the risk of being stupidly obvious, I would like to suggest you try to get SBC on one of the Chinese exchanges. I'm based in China, and can't get on to Cryptsy without a VPN (maybe not an issue since I can't get onto BtcChina without a VPN either, but BtcChina is the biggest exchange anyhow), and anyhow Cryptsy might be tricky to navigate for non-English speakers.  Bter might be the easiest since they already have a lot of alt-coins. No idea how to go about doing it other than just contacting an exchange, but I think getting SBC on a Chinese exchange should be top priority.

Anyone who holds or is thinking of buying SBC will care what the "religious wackos" think if/when SBC starts getting dumped becuase of poor choice of logo. Horns is definitely not a good idea; people might associate it with devil, and the "S" with Satan, and red with the devil.  This will deter 2 kinds of people from SBC:
1. Christian / religious types.
2. Non- religous types, don't give a damn about the horns per se, but even they might be worried that the horns will scare off the religious types and therefore limit the appeal of the coin.
The only person around here nutty enough to make that association would be Luke Jr.

Hi Hazard,

Not sure where you are from, but I think anyone from a western country (such as USA.... maybe not Chinese) would instantly make an association with the devil/Satn from a red S with horns.  If you're not sure, go ask 10 people from the USA if they have ever seen any image of a red devil with horns. 

I think the possible negatives of the horns outweigh any possible benefits. The logo won't by itself make SBC a success but it could by itself prevent or limit SBC's success.  Why risk possibly alienating potential buyers for very little in return (an arguably better looking design)?

Don't know where you're from, but I am an American Christian-quite devout, actually-and I made no such association.  I do prefer the one without horns, but the only "Christians" that will be put off by the appearance of horns and a red "S" are the same ones who see Satan in modern culture in general.  They are a fringe element and not exemplary of the average Christian--We're talking Pentecostals or some of the charismatic churches.

Still, as I said, I do prefer the one that isn't so horny . . . LOL!

Hi Cats,

I'm also from the US. Haven't lived there in many years though. Well, I'm surprised you did not make the Satan association from a big red S with horns.  I would have thought 10 out of 10 Americans would have, but looks like you proved me wrong!  Maybe it needs a pitchfork and flames too! Guess I'm out of touch.

Well, I'll be locking in profits on SBC if the horn logo is chosen (but would still hold some SBC)... so if it is horns, good luck with that!

Greetings,

What you guys thinking about NMC ?

Do chinese people can buy NMC on their platforms ?

thanks by advance,

/cheers

The only coin that has an actual purpose.
About the chinese platforms I have no clue.

bter.com has a lot of alt coins; And according to this website (https://bitcoinaverage.com/#CNY), bter is the 5tyh largest (in terms of  BTC volume).

I really hate Cryptsy so much, they are SO slow. I saw the small 'crash' coming, deposited some Bitcoins to trade for SBC and it's been 1 hour and nothing has shown in my account, and the price will shoot back up very soon. Cryptsy is no good for trading, they need much faster servers.

Anyway, how do you guys feel about SBC? Where do you think it will go? I have a feeling if the Chinese get hold of it then it may go quite high, however as far as I am aware no shops currently accept it, which is a huge hindrance and it may end in a pump, dump and crash... I hope it doesn't though, I look forward to actually spending them as a consumer if I can.

As we speak, SBC'S being acquired by us Chinese for hours already, Chris.

http://anwenbi.com

My word! Brace yourself guys! Let the Chinese take it Cheesy, I'd love to work with them on this coin Smiley.

Is SBC available on any of the Chinese exchanges? I don't see it on any of the top Chinese exchanges (not on btcchina, okcoin, fxbtc, bter or huobi).

And your link "http://anwenbi.com" is just the SBC webpage in Chinese; any coin could make a nice web-page in Chinese, that doesn't mean the Chinese are going to get on board.

So then where is the big push from China? Ar you telling me they're buying on Cryptsy? Or is all this talk of China going into SBC just hype and hope?

I know that Artos has some connections in Hong Kong apparently. Ive read that many Chinese are buying SBC on Cryptsy

I hope so!  Would like to see it on the Chinese exchanges too soon/eventually!

Maybe I'm just paranoid but I frequent lots of "alternative news" sites (which would probably be a target market)and there is a large segment of those communities which seem to be strongly of the christian persuasion and they may view a red coin with "horns" as related to the "mark of the beast" idea that gets tossed around in those sort of communities.

Like I said maybe I'm just paranoid and no one would see it that way. Honestly I personally think #2 looks way better and more professional but #1 is the super safe option.

I think maybe it being red is probably good among the chinese community as well. Thats indicates good fortune does it not?

What are we, living in the dark ages? Who cares what religious wackos think. If they are stupid enough to think a coin can be 'the devil' then it's unlikely they even know what virtual currency even is, they probably think the internet was created by satan as a device to waste away peoples lives by watching Youtube videos and such :p. Are we going to cater for religious nut jobs or are we going to keep out heads down, stay focuses and pick the design that genuinely looks the best and gives the most unique feel without it being 'too complex'?

Can anyone explain why anyone would need to buy Mastercoin? Isn't competiter Colorcoin just a protocol that can be used and no need to be bought?  And even if one did need to buy Mastercoin to use its functions, wouldn't some small amount be enough, like less than one Mastercoin, since it is highly divisible?  So why buy Mastercoin?
