Even if the people from Cripti community are honestly helping Corona, which I believe they are if they have showed interested, that doesn't mean Corona doesn't have a hidden agenda. They could be played as well, trying to bring more credibility to the project. I'm really sorry if this is legit, but honestly, there are multiple red flags.

From reddit: "I can tell you that if it were a scam, it would be quite elaborate and not necessarily worth the amount of trouble that has gone into it. He has had countless discussions with myself and other members of the team to prepare for this launch and I honestly believe he has invested a lot of time to get to this point. I'm not saying no scammer has ever put time into a con before, but I don't get that kind of feeling from him. " - Matthew Cox of Crypti board

Remember Neo and Bee? That scam company that had key bitcoin figureheads (Andreas Antonopoulos, Tuur Demeester) in advisor roles? They opened a store in Cyprus, ran TV ads, had press releases and openings, and the owner disappeared. Lots of money just disappeared. The employees of the retail store were not even paid for their time.

Corona could be legit, but after having the experience of observing the evolution of multiple scam companies in the past  (Active Mining Company, Neo/Bee), it seems that there are definitely similarities.

The other thing to think about, how do we know that these usernames are actually the people that they say they are?

If we allow them to vet themselves they should be happy to.  It helps them build a good reputation faster.  :)

IMO SCAM 

It would be be great if some of the dev team of corona for example Mike Doty or Stas Oskin would approve his participation .. thx

I, Mike Doty, am only on Crypti. I am not involved with Corona. We have pursued a partnership with Corona for dapp development, and as a result, Matt and Stas have served as advisors with Corona.

For the record Neo and Bee was in Cyprus not Greece. Different people different countries.. ;).. The only common thing is that Cypriots speak some kind of Greek in a funny musical accent

Crypti is a real project and we consist of honest people. :)

Welcome Max, yes pls don't see this as an offense to your community!
I'm not claminung something shady on your side! I just noticed that 2 Devs mentioned on Corona site also working in your team!
So maybet they would be able to bring light into the dark here :) and they would be able to confirm that they are also participating on CORONA network..

Pls excuse if it sounds like i mentioned crypti.me in same line .. that was not my intend!
BTW- @Max, you're german also, right?  Moinsen   :)

Hey cass,
I hope everything is clear now. Stas personally came to correct the issue. :)

Stats oskin ... Dev for corona.. is also working for getgems.org like it seems through a img search via google! So we could proof this easily of he is really on this project ... worth a try?

To be fully clear on this, not me (Stas) nor GreXX (Matt), nor anyone of the Crypti team are working on Corona as developers, but merely as an external advisers.

We already asked Daniel to clearly label us as such on his website.

I also welcome everyone to read Matt's great clarification on this:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/384ga9/scamtoshi_warning_corona_dapp_development_network/crso7l4


The team section on our website was not completely clear regarding advisory roles, general skill sets were listed instead.
We are in the process of fixing this. Everything Stas says is true.
