LOL: Ethereum Startup Vanishes After Seemingly Making $11, Leaves Message: ‘Penis’
Jordan Pearson, writing for Motherboard:
An Ethereum startup called Prodeum disappeared from the web on Sunday after raising a grand total of $11 USD from investors in a crowdsale. Shortly after the website disappeared, a message appeared on its homepage: “penis.”
Prodeum’s pitch, according to a cached version of its webpage, was to track vegetables in a supply chain using digital addresses on a blockchain—a decentralized ledger at the heart of Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
[...] the startup was paying people on Fiverr to promote the ICO by writing “Prodeum” on their bodies.
Sounds to me like failed ICO that wanted to go out with a laugh. What do you guys think happened??
Is that even a crime? 11$ hahaha
