Re: [ANN][ECA] Electra ⚡ | POS | NIST5 | Super Rewards Bonanza
Dear Stakeholders,
I have been in contact with Robert Bakker of the Electra Foundation these past days. They have come to the final stage of negotiations with a top exchange which has been operating since 2013. It is well known but I am not allowed to name it. If I ask you to name two top exchanges founded in that year, you will probably guess it. Electra has passed all required criteria and the screening stage. There is some extra funding needed to make it happen. The Electra Foundation has set up a fundraiser here:
https://electraproject.org/exchange-listing-donations/
I will also donate from private funds because it is one that I have always dreamed of seeing Electra listed on in order to boost liquidity, prestige and accessibility. I commend the work the foundation and community have done in these negotiations.

Thank you @E01 for the kind words and the donation. I'm glad the word is out, it is going to be HITBTC with a BTC, ETH and USDT pair listing. It seems that the community appreciated the news as price surged over 150% in the past week. Coming weeks the listing will be done at HITBTC.
Also I'd like to mention that we expect ECA to go live on Next.Exchange early access in coming weeks and we hope to announce yet another Exchange listing next monday. This exchange is small but listed on CMC and will give us following fiat pairs: EUR, USD, BRL, GBP, RUR, UAH, TRY and KZT. Nice to mention is that this exchange is setup to comply with EU regulation and has applied for a National Bank license in The Netherlands.
Re: [ANN][ECA] Electra ⚡ | POW/POS | NIST5 | Super Rewards Bonanza
Plan to dump and leave with btc
I believe this guy may be attempting to try to discourage others to mine Electra so he can claim a larger portion of the Super Rewards Bonanza for himself. There will be many more like him. The status of the pre-mine can be easily tracked at anytime in Electra's block explorer.
"dump and leave with btc" is not part of my plans.
I'm not interested in your coin shit, but alert the others of the scam you're doing here
, You can put the whole premine in the assBenji, this aged well. 3 years later the coin had ATH of over 200mln USD MC, currently ranked 320 on CMC and an active Github like no other project. Also premine is still there for the largest part from which a big chunk is managed by a legal entity setup in The Netherlands; Electra Foundation.
Re: [ANN]Lemanum[ANN] LMN -- New pos/pow Cryptocurrency
So, in other words, the address used there, is a virtual office address. Which by law when you incorporate a company you need to have a registered office address.
Virtual address for many shelf companies, ok nothing illegal in having a shelf company or virtual address (Just as long there is no criminal intent)

Exactly.
Re: [ANN]Lemanum[ANN] LMN -- New pos/pow Cryptocurrency
First off:
We completely understand the community's frustrations regarding CoinsMarkets, but do not wish to start a manhunt on the owners to harass or threaten them. This is not the type of impression Lemanum wishes to convey. Recently, I Tiny_Dave/TinyGuy personally traded under 7 Euros worth of Lemanum to check if everything was working as it should be. It was not. The CoinsMarkets situation has adversely effected the Lemanum community, due to witholding over 20 million Lemanum coins. This is unacceptable.
The address information:
Bitcointalk user stoffel created an impressive write-up, which contained all of the contact details they were able to find regarding the location of CoinsMarkets. This can be found here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2185903.msg27944798#msg27944798. The address details obtained are as follows: Surinamestraat 26, Den Haag, which is in The Netherlands. As stoffel stated, there is a foundation as well as a business registered to this address. This can be confirmed by visiting the website of the KVK (Dutch Chamber of Commerce): https://www.kvk.nl/zoeken/handelsregister/#!uitgebreid-zoeken&handelsnaam=&kvknummer=&straat=surinamestraat&postcode=&huisnummer=26&plaats=Den Haag&hoofdvestiging=true&rechtspersoon=true&nevenvestiging=true&zoekvervallen=0&zoekuitgeschreven=1&start=0&initial=0&searchfield=uitgebreidzoeken.
A visit from another user:
Another Bitcointalk user under the name Fred290 visited the above mentioned address. According to Fred, an elderly man opened the door and insisted he was not affiliated with CM https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2185903.msg27582400#msg27582400. Naturally, this raised further questions.
My first visit:
On 16th January 2018 around 21:00h, I arrived at the Surinamestraat. Lamborghinis, Aston Martins, BMWs as well as a number of other equally flashy and expensive cars were parked on this street. The majority of the houses must have been worth in excess of 150 BTC! The ambassador of Panama also appears to be living here: https://www.google.nl/maps/@52.0902278,4.3074533,3a,28.5y,297.3h,89.4t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s7WGDGFooFNGWgmnMbvWH7A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656.
Having taken in the sites, I then arrived at the property where CM are supposedly located. To say that the mansion was huge is something of an understatement. The ground floor houses a private gallery for paintings. The second and third floors house swanky living areas for the property's residents. I rang the doorbell multiple times, to no answer. I then wrote a short letter asking to be contacted, and posted this through the letter box. I am yet to receive a response.
My second visit:
On the following day (17th January 2018), around 19:00h, I visited the Surinamestraat again. After ringing the doorbell multiple times, an elderly man screamed through the letter box:
Elderly man: Who is there?
Me: Dave from , Im here because a company registered a website to this address.
The website is down, and has taken a lot of people's money with it. Since it appears that the owners of the website are unwilling to communicate, I decided to check the address for myself.
Elderly man: What are your contact details?
Me: and .
Elderly man: What is your Fax number?
Me: Fax? I dont have one.
Elderly man: Mmm ok, so what is the name of the website?
Me: Coinsmarkets.com.
Elderly man: Let me write that down. Can you please read it out?
Me: C o i n s m a r k e t s . c o m.
Elderly man: What did they do?
Me: This is/was a marketplace where you can trade Bitcoin for altcoins. The website went down on the fifth of January.
Elderly man: Say what? Bitcoins and altcoins? I dont know anything about Bitcoins.
Me: If I may ask, there are two businesses registered to this address and . Do any of these belong to you?
Elderly man: Yes, both of these are my companies. The Foundation was founded by myself 10 years ago, and bares no relation to the trading of Bitcoin.
Me: Are you willing to press charges against CoinsMarkets for fraud?
Elderly man: If it can be proven that my address is falsely being used, then yes.
Me: You can find this on the website whois.com.
Elderly man: Another young man also came here a week ago, and said he had lost money. Did you lose any money too?
Me: Personally, I have lost nothing. People who I know however are extremely concerned that they have lost a lot of money. Millions of Euro are currently being witheld.
Elderly man: How much!?!?!?!?!?
Me: More than one million Euro.
Elderly man: I will read up on the Internet about this site. If my address is being used, rest assured that I will be pressing charges. I will call you before the weekend with an update.
The below picture confirms that I was at said property. Further updates on CoinsMarkets will be provided in due course:

What happens to our coins if he goes to jail? I
Although I'm also worried about my coins on Coinsmarkets you have to think a bit further than it seems from the outside. The address Surinamestraat 26 is not only used for Coinsmarkets but also for a bunch of other companies that don't seem to have any link between them. On the Dutch government website of the Chamber of Commerce (kamer van koophandel) you can verify this. And not only number 26 has companies registered on, also other houses in the same street have this.
https://www.kvk.nl/zoeken/#!zoeken&q=surinamestraat%2026&index=4&site=kvk2014&start=0
I suggest to check the above link.
For now.. in short:
1. If Coinsmarkets is legit, best is to wait and see how fast this (I assume 1 man) team is able to fix the database issues and come back online. It is a fact that they are working on the site as the speed improved and also updates are given.
2. If coinsmarkets is a scam.. we have lost our coins and there is nothing we can do about it.
Either way, patience is key. For now I'm still positive that CM will be coming back.
