Oh :(
They just updated it... after 2 days.. they had to do this the second I post this trade :( lol.
I can still give you 2$ for it.
Updates from Stellar HQ
August 4, 2014
As planned, the stellar distribution amounts will now adjust to market prices starting today. The distribution amount for each person is approximately $10 so that we can reach as many folks as possible. NOTE: Everyone who is wait listed will receive the stellar amount in effect at the time they signed up, not the time they are taken off wait list.
Also, to reiterate a change from yesterday, the stellar amount distributed on sign up is now staggered so that everyone who signs up receives some of their stellars now and the remainder later. This change was implemented so that we can keep the distribution running in a stable and scalable manner. Thanks everyone!
Hi, did a trade with you as "johnjames" for 100 str just for the extra 100.
question. Is it possible to have more than two accounts in on IP for this or will I get banned?
The new standard for the trade is 2$ worth of wallet stuff for 900 coins.
Please confirm with me, and reference to the OP
Got you added. Not able to send you a chat message at this time, but I can send you the 900 str and accept trade request. I'll go ahead and send you the currency right now.
Oh wait. Just found a hitch. Looks like I need to have at least 50 STR in my account. I can only send you 850 str which brings it up to 950. Is this alright?
Yes don't worry about it, you'll get another 900 after the first trade.
Don't need to send the coins right away, I'm trying to go through everyone but get tons of msgs/invite. :)
Ah, I just sent the currency. Lol. Its alright. I can wait for you to go the rest.
This is taking crazy proportions! I'll go through everyone one by one lol.
There might be some delays!!!
I can send only 850, because it says needs 50cr minimum balance.
Added you anyway, I accept DOTA2 treasure key. :)
Meh, i'l just send it to you :) (same name as on Steam)
Sent 850+100, now waiting for what will happens on Stellar :D
Everyone will be added and transferred. I just completed some trades, if so, please leave feedback.
Turns out after you send the first batch of coins, you get another 900 or 1000 right away!
So you'll get for 4$ worth of steam stuff or 2 tf2 keys!
just sent u 850 and a steam friend request.
and i just sent an additional 100 for total 950
sent total 950. Would like a TF2 key for that please, if that's okay. Have added you on Steam. Thanks.
EDIT: Got my key, thanks. :)
Sent you total 950. May I please get a TF2 key? :)
Edit: Excellent and fast trader! Absolutely recommended! :)
Very hard to keep track of all the messages and transactions as this took CRAZY proportions!!! If I missed anyone message me.
Also, when you receive your next coins, we can trade again :)
More than 30 trades! I am still buying and will for the next few days/week.
Add me or you can even send the coin and i'll initiate a trade asap :)
Hi, just in case you might miss it.
Sent you 950 currency a few hours ago as johnjames. My steam profile is http://steamcommunity.com/id/gwiser101/
I just sent you 850 + 100 currency (from roy-van-dijk06) :)
And now I added you as friend.
I signed up, got 900STR but I can't send 900 to you, the site complains that I must have a balance of 50 to send, so it only lets me send 850. Is that enough? :)
edit
Received another 100 after sending the 850, so I sent those too. A TF2 key would be great :) Added you on Steam; Senator_Gibbons
Still not getting added by him on Steam..
Sorry, but it would not take more than 2 minutes to accept somebody on Steam, ask for their Stellar account names and give them a key.
I hope this didn't turn into a scam.
850 STR sent & added. Can you please send me a TF2 key? Thanks for sharing :)
Hey i have added you. Kindly add back. Have sent you 850 coins. Will send you more. :)
Still no response. He should be active more if he is going to make this successful.
He is online most of the time, and still not accepting me.
Guess i will report him on that Stellar.org site, that he tricked people into sending him all those credits.
Why is nobody writing in that thread about him?
Like mentioned he probably has several hundred $ amassed now and is laughing..
With more reports he will get his account banned very fast on that site.
well he gave me my keys but he did say he had like 200 ppl lined up and he was swamped by requests. maybe between eating sleeping working and having a life he just hasnt had time to get to EVERYONE yet. seems a little harsh to label him a scammer just cause you didnt get a response when you wanted it.
Those 200 people have all sent 1000 Stellar in advance, no? So while everyone waits, he makes out like a bandit with what, 200,000 Stellar? Considering 6800STR is roughly $18, just for argument's sake let's say it was 200 people sending 950STR, that is $509 at current market value. That's a hell of a lot of money to just sit on for 24 hours.
Hopefully it all gets sorted out soon =)
lmao it never fails ppl complain about getting something for free. have some patience, he got to me after about 2 hours, that was yesterday when and thast also when he said he had 200 people lined up...whic hwas about 30 mins after he made the thread. he could easily have over 1000 in the que now and that would take quite sometime to get thru. it isnt like any of us had to pay for anything or do anything other than signup for something thats free in exchange for getting something else for free. i just dont think the guy is scamming i think u guys are impatient is all. i think if he was scamming he wouldnt have kept me on his friend list or told me to keep him in mind in the future when stellar gives more bonuses. i sent my 950 in advance also so he could have easily scammed me but he didnt
lets consider for a moment that the guy has a job and he has to sleep. sp maybe he payed traded with ppl yesterday evening then went to bed and then went to his job. if he lives in USA or canada then he could be getting off work and be home anytime in the next hours to 4 hours.
Sorry, but i am waiting now about 36 hours for him to actually accept my friend request on Steam.
NO WAY IN HELL does it take so long to accept someone, ask for his Stellar account and give him a tf2 key!
And you are right that nobody is losing anything here. But at least i don't want that (probably) scammer to get so much free money for nothing.
Yepp! Traded with him two times already. Got lots of request and line up, also some life.
Maybe he is online, but that doesn't guarantee that he's always sitting behind the PC.
If he would be a scammer, this trade post wouldn't live too long!
And why didn't he give some news update about what going on? Keeping silent is tend to be a scammer wannabe I think.
Complaining for free stuff lol.
Idk. Maybe this project was grown too big (as i was tought), or he got some life.
Who knows?...Do you think that he scams ppl randomly? That would be absurd.
It's not really free stuff, you have 2$ worth given by other. But it has a value.
Imagine that 10 peoples given 2$ by someone. And come 1 boy said "Hey I have a bread for 2$ if you give me that $2 to me!" Then all 10 peoples give him 2$ and after that boy collecting $20 he run away without giving back a bread he promised before.
He did all this thing to get him BITCOIN, so he convert stellar into bitcoin. ;p
At least he can do CLOSE for a while this offering until he could handle more people coming.
it IS free . someone tells u where to go get something for free then asks u to trade it to them for something. you started with nothing and put nothing into it so you have done nothing but gain from it. even if the guy never shows back up which i doubt will happen you will still have exactly what you had before you met him....
the real problem here is that some people are adults and have lives to live while some people are children with no responsibilities outside of steam or whatever sites they hang out on and have nothing to do but whine over spilt milk
HEY, added you to talk, i have 1800 points or whatever
will give the stuff AFTER i talk with you :)
"Speculate to accumulate" I reckon :( It's easy to run a scheme if you pay out to the first few people that respond, that way it generates legitimacy and good will. It costs what? $20 in keys? Then he makes $800 from suckers. Great return on the investment.
It's absolutely a scam, that much is painfully obvious now, which is also why irritating co-conspirators like PIRATEorNINJA have shut up now.
Update
Original post was 10$/5000 coins but they changed it.
This is taking crazy proportions! I'll go through everyone one by one lol.
There might be some delays!!! I have tons of friend request.
Quite simple, there's a new cryptocurrency that came out (stellar.org)
I've been involved in the bitcoin/altcoins a lot lately and as most of you are/will never use it i'm giving you a chance to get a quick 2$ on steam.
