Great information. Thank you! But - I found out following: ~~~ embed:BitShares/comments/7llifu/arise_bank_scam/. What about this? reddit metadata:fEJpdFNoYXJlc3xodHRwczovL3d3dy5yZWRkaXQuY29tL3IvQml0U2hhcmVzL2NvbW1lbnRzLzdsbGlmdS9hcmlzZV9iYW5rX3NjYW0vLiBXaGF0IGFib3V0IHRoaXM/fA== ~~~

That post is deleted now; do you have a backup or a summary to share?

[quincho]

Im sorry, I havent. The statement was, that Arise could be a scam and the name connected to Arise is also connected to BTS. The author concluded, if this is true, BTS could also be a scam.

[valth]

Ah, ok. Thanks for providing the short summary. I haven't really looked into this situation, but I don't get how BTS could even be a scam at all.

Yes I saw the original post and there is much discussion about it in the BitShares Telegram channel. Two things:

1. is it really true or just FUD
2. if it is true it does not make BitShares a scam but just Arise. BitShares has been a functioning Blockchain for years with many projects being built on it. Arise is but one of them.

Thanks for your answer. Because you are much more familiar with BTS you might be right. One further indicator could be that the posting is deleted meanwhile, @valth wrote (see above).
