I think we have have come to a seminal point (ie identifying the first ico as a project/crowdsale on 2p2 designed to serve the developers and not the investors or customers). This project is not transparent at all like it claim to be. What it IS is not inline with what its whitepaper is claiming.
It claims to fix the problem of superuser accounts, but perfectly designed a back door for one.
It is sending unsolicited emails which is spam. This is always a hint of security problems to me.
It has an ex poker stars public relations person as their head of security. Both Josem and Pokerstars have a history of lying to the players through PR campaigns. This is not security, its quite the opposite.
And there are hidden owners. In crypto the developers own the project to the % they declare and the rest of the owners are investors in the crowd sale.
The worst part to me is that the crowd sale is tomorrow, and it was impossible to get all the significant questions answers just on security alone.
Under scrutiny of a tech crowd, especially in regard to security, this project would receive a 0-3 out of 10. If I were in charge of protecting players here (and the forum reputation) from scams, I would blacklist this project until it RADICALLY changed, and I'm not sure I would believe them anyways.
Perhaps this is going to far to say, but this project offends me. Just my 2 cents but I claim to have a lot of knowledge on this subject.
