I was recently informed of a post on bitcointalk that many people suspected might be a secret launch of a new "ICO" for EOS.
Considering the confusion and the potential that almost $1M of BTC was given to the "donation address" I want to take measures to prevent this kind of subtle impersonation from hurting anyone else. I will not introduce any future projects through anonymous accounts.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1883814.0
Donation Address: https://blockchain.info/address/1DNKxKAwEH9er6DhBRbAs2qT4vhFtg7SKb
Looks like only 20 people funded it so far.
EOS Party!
Just incase you missed the prior announcement, we will be throwing a party at the unveiling our new project, EOS. It will take place from May 22-25th at the the Consensus 2017 event in NYC. I am eager to connect in person with fellow developers and entrepreneurs.
We would like to thank everyone who reached out to claim the free tickets. We should be contacting you all shortly as I believe almost everyone was approved.
better first release on steem then BTS forum then btctalk

95 BTC will be worth $1M when a BTC reach $10.5K :)
I am pleased to say that they "lost" about $170K ...
And to me it seems nobody lost anything since it's probably from the same scammers sent just to convince others that it could be legit. So no worries ;)

I'll never understand how someone can live with themselves after taking something that isn't rightfully theirs from another human being by being deceitful. It's grotesque. In the grand scheme of things, I think that duping people that you convince to trust you is one of the best ways to perpetuate negativity and all-around decay society, it's so stupid.
On a lighter note, can't wait to get to NYC for Consensus! Airbnb is booked, plane tickets being purchased tomorrow, fully ready to roll!
I made a post yesterday about trying to find other folks from here that are attending Consensus so that we can have a small scale meetup of Steem and BTS users. Anyone reading this that's going to Consensus, please chime in on my blog post! You can find it here:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@matt-a/consensus-2017-are-you-going-i-am-if-you-are-lets-meet-up-may-22nd-may-24th
Myself as well as @robrigo will be rolling deep in NYC for the duration of Consensus 2017! I'll be lugging around a killer camera as well, so comb your hair and brush yo' teef!

Hope you have a great time at Consensus! I'd love to go to something like that sometime, but alas, will have to content myself to reading play-by-plays on Reddit. Should be some exciting announcements to look forward to!

Horrible that address has 95 BTC. This type of scamming give crypto a bad name. The account only had 3 post. I feel bad for the many of people who fell for this.

If that is a scam, it's pretty clever. Perfect timing and written like it could be a Steem/Bitshares-like blockchain with witnesses.
And the rules say that it's only a donation, not an investment, so if nothing happens, nobody can complain.

Hey, Dan. Just curious...I've heard some chatter that there could possibly be an EOS sharedrop for Steem accounts. Any truth to this or has it even been considered?

Thanks for clarifying. Some of the things you said regarding witnesses in the BlockTalk interview seemed to corroborate what was posted in that thread. Very clever subtlety to that post.
