Dont expect professionalism in crypto fellas. Just because you made profit doesn't mean anyone is reputable and of course check names. What i dont understand is why Spots even responds to people with "fuck off". You are just stooping to their level and it doesn't come off as professional at all. The person making the most money is Spots, every shitcoin he comes out with is more money in his pocket. He can preach like price doesnt matter but he is cashing out on everyone and every "coin" he manifests out of thin air. Its pretty easy to see that he made a shitload of money on MMXIV and is trying to replicate that or sponge more money before he disappears forever. I would be seriously impressed if he has more than 100 people who use his staking service. Good idea to try and legitimize all the income from MMXIV and future coins though.
If you dont trust him, dont trust him. Its not investing, you are gambling on a shady(and pretty egotistical) individual to bring "innovation" to an already niche and overly saturated market.
