• Huobi

Recently we witnessed a wave of asset delisting by majors
cryptocurrency exchanges. The projects that have been added are rather suspicious
the fictions are removed to the right and left while the exchanges "clean up theirs
acts ". Huobi is the last platform that has decided to reconsider its trade
wallet.

Looking to "to promote
the healthy development of the blockchain industry and protect the legitimate
investors' rights and interests ", the exchange decided to revise his
cryptocurrency activities in accordance with its token management regulations
of Huobi. The review was completed on December 20th^th and he revealed

• Xtrabytes
  scam exposed online

Cameron0208, a Reddit user, created a thread that explains why Xtrabytes, a master-node-based project that uses a unique consent mechanism called Proof of Signature, is actually a scam. The project has recently been subjected to some controls by the community, as people have started to ask questions about the code and the Xtrabytes increases.

The post opens by analyzing Borzalom, co-founder of XBY e
developer. Apparently Borzalom has a history with dead, scam projects, being a
investor in projects now defunct as Identity and Bitmox. There is also a
problem with Borzalom choosing to stay under a pseudonym and keep the
details of the private code, all while claiming to be "transparent" and "open".
The user also reveals that some data describe Borzalom as someone who is
pretending to work from Hungary while he was in Florida.

Considering its lack of transparency and a general lack of
proof that he has a true knowledge of the developer (his being poorly managed by Bitmox
the biggest smoking gun pointing to its lack of skill), there is an abundance
of reasons for believing that the man behind the pseudonym may not be at the height.
Furthermore, the team suggests that they are actually working on the code and the
technology, but they are choosing to keep it hidden until they can patent it
key parts. The point of discussion "patent" has been debunked by the community as
just another delay tactic fielded by the team.

The community has called the project several times for
their lack of progress and the general vagueness of their updates. Looking at theirs
most
recent update, it is really full of words of order, empty promises and it does not
really give you some ideas on what to expect from the project and when. Some communities
members have insinuated that this has been going on for over a year and have
clearly had enough

Xtrabytes has created a discussion FAQ Reddit that addresses most of
the issues mentioned above, but most of their arguments are rather weak and do not address
nothing concrete. At the moment, there is a rather intense discussion about it
this project is happening here,
then go and check it for more information.
