I have a feeling this is going to turn into biggest scam in the altcoin history. IMO he dumped his coins before the "news" and rebought 5x cheaper. He will make another announcement which will start new pump. Then he will dump it all and make a lot of money.

The coin is excellent, with features that no other has and real potential to become a means of payment. Just read the OP. It isnt scam.

Actually it isn't - when you look at the code and just do some searching you'll find that many, many (!) parts of the code are just copied from other programs/functions - where copyright information then was ripped off and replaced with john's like this:

https://github.com/john-connor/vcash/blob/38ba821efb5e74a7746d81d604af62309e99b343/src/stack.cpp#L29

https://github.com/Packet7/grapevine/blob/cca8b5e8b9f8bf4ef185893071b28a435070e437/src/stack_impl.cpp#L40

It seems like he is using the grapevine implementation for his needs and modified the original code to work with his coind - no doubt that there is some technical skill necessary here, but when you compare the rest of the files (stack.hpp for example) you'll find a lof of similarities which cannot be a coincidence - and everywhere copyright information is removed.

You can do that will almost all files in the repo, just click through the last commits, use some individual function calls for a github / google search and you'll see where the code came / comes from Wink

So you say the code is not good because there are parts copied?
