In the past six years was never mentioned that SAFEX will be used for private stores, then one day Daniel Dabek announced his little private store TWM, he abandoned SAFEX marketplace development that was supposed to be uncensored & also abandoned SFT as there is no intention to list on exchanges, instead you say to investors to build on the SAFEX blockchain if they want what Daniel promised, Daniel already toke money from SAFEX without asking anyone he paid himself with investors money, that is because there is no user governance & investors cannot vote, user governance is in the blue paper & was supposed to be in the SAFEX wallet, instead SAFEX investors only can use Daniel Dabek wallet TWM because SAFEX wallet has not been finished, you most probable are getting paid to defend SAFEX & try to debunk the truth, go on & carry on & support Daniel Dabek wallet TWM while Safex investors have no exchanges to dump, no marketplace, & empty promises.
I think that he chose the route of a curated marketplace application for his and other developers safety especially after he was accused by joey and others to build it for illegal activities which he never intended to do. the core element of the project is still the blockchain which is decentralized and functional at this point. you can now send and receive coins, stake tokens and collect revenue. everyone wished and expected this sooner but now it is out. delays dont make it a scam.
all the money he took was 50k dollars from the crowdsale back then. you should understand that it is not easy to fund fast development and various top exchange listings with that. sft is not abandonded at all. i would expect listings for sft when sfx listings are live. I am not getting paid to defend safex, I own token and cash and want to see the project succeed. xcalibra works fine from my own experience. sfx listing on p2pb2b is live. bw should open the deposits and withdrawals. i still expect sfx listings for digifinex and bitrue. as soon as sfx is out there and more known and the market is used, funds and earnings can be used for sft listings. it should also be easier to get sft listings after the project and market has some track record.
Conclusion: Daniel Dabek toke money from investors and paid himself, with that money he produced gold medallions and his privated marketplace leaving the SAFEX marketplace incompleted.
You probably have one SAFEX gold medallion, i am right?
He took 50k dollars from a crowdsale and made all those investors a 100x return. the limited funds were used for development which had delays and could not deliver expectations on time yet. no, I dont have a gold medaillon.
so what do we have now? a functional blockchain that enables sending of cash and token, staking of tokens, creating accounts and listings, buying listings, collecting revenue from staking, ratings and price pegs. a first version of TWM which will be a curated app where you can send coins, stake tokens, buy listings, chat with the merchant. some sales already were done on that. sfx is distributed to token stakers.
you can criticize the slow development, the delays, the lack of exchange listings right now and that the TWM from current developers will be a curated app. all this does not make it a scam.
