  • Ergo is a newer cryptocurrency project that aims to provide a secure and scalable blockchain platform. But with so many scams in the cryptocurrency world, many people are asking: Is Ergo a scam? In this video, we'll be taking a closer look at Ergo, its technology, and the team behind it to determine whether it's a legitimate project or a scam.

      People may have different opinions, but clearly judging by the comments of your audience they were influenced by what you said. On top of that you seemed to be encouraging them when they commented that they ''sold'', which I doubt they did, if they ever held any.

    That is certainly true for evm systems, especially with closed source code. Even when the source code is open, having 90% of the tokens and governance controlled by a central entity lends itself to these types of changes and rugpulls.
    But ergo's smart contracts are of a different nature; it's not a virtual machine, it's sigma protocols. The code is all open and this person could audit it if wanted to, but that does not suit his motivations.
    The emissions and total amount are known ahead of time, just like for Bitcoin. Does that mean that Bitcoin miners aren't mining Bitcoin?

    The community voted to change the emission smart contract, this was voted on and decided by the miners not the DEVs... your completely flawed with your argument, The devs can't change anything without the pools that do the voting, if the miners leave ergo ergo is dead, there is not difference between other chains, Ergo is not a scam, Don't use a dumb click bait title. No there can't be a rug pull because the devs don't hold custodian ship of the tokens they have a very small percentage of the liquidity, you honestly should change the title of your video to Ergo FUD or ergo white paper discussion, Not ergo is a scam the emissions smart contract is built into the code that takes a percentage of the block reward to its difficulty schedual there's a chart that tracks this, the devs cannot just get the unmined tokens unless blocks are found, there has been over 6 years of work with hundreds of developers into this network, get your facts straight, you litterly say at the beginning that you don't know and I don't know, so before making this click bait crap to try pump your flux and pull miners to your largest bag, take a moment to consider that your content is harmful to your channel also your credibility and also bad for the crypto industry and the community, Ergo is not a scam, blocks must be found in order to get a block reward and build the currency.

    You seem like a reasonable person, but calling a completely open source protocol a scam when they haven't scammed anyone is not fair. Anyone can go in and verify the code, search for any backdoors or weird stuff with the emissions. As for devs changing things; I guess they have to. Otherwise the protocol would not be able to improve. But I understand your concern.
    Only thing that annoys me with Ergo is the whole ETC twitter account takeover. That was unethical IMO.

      But that’s simply not true. It doesn’t take “one bad actor”. It takes supermajority (90%) of the hash power of the network, which is what EIP-27 had to reach to trigger the update. I’m not understanding how you are making the leap to thinking any dev can push a change into the emissions contract and suddenly the entire network is compromised.

    I don't see your point, you can run your own node and choose not to run the software superimposed by the devs. it's not like ETH where no one can run a node because it's so expensive.
    If there's a change to the emission/re-emission contract it has to be voted on and hard forked. It's first submitted as a proposal then the devs work on it.
    It was done before with the introduction of re-emission contract and it was voted in because it benefited the miners.
    Clearly you lack understanding and you're already front-running the corrections and dismissing as all as "angry ergo community", but we're telling you ergo is nothing like the scam rugpulls ETH has produced over the years.

    You're error is in thinking a smart contract on EVM is comparable to smart contract on Ergo. Apples to Oranges.
    On Ergo a SC is actually called a guard script.
    Guard scripts actually protect erg and tokens at any given UTxO.
    I understand the confusion but you simply don't understand some key points. Not to say Ergo is perfect, but Ergo isn't how you describe it.
    Anybody could have proposed the EIPs thus far. Still required supermajority (of miners/hashpower) to pass & be implemented.
    Ergo's biggest weakness is the community can become a cult
    -like echo-chamber.
    We should have predicted and prevented the DAA fiasco. The Charle's & ETC twitter drama was not 'Ergo', if it was they would have at least had the community vote on the issue.

    Mining is never usefull work. It is wasting energy to slow down the possibility to find a block and make 51% attacks expensive, not even impossible, just very unlikely. Nothing else.
    I don't know if the smart contract can be changed by the devs without a soft or hard fork. I don't think so. They changed it at least one time and it needed a soft fork.
    Smart contracts can have bugs like the blockchain software itself. I don;t see any bigger problem here than any blockchain can have. If the coins are existing or made out of thin air does not matter. It is just a number somewhere on the chain. ^^ Even the Bitcoin devs could increase the rewards at any time. If the pools deploy it it is the new law. ^^

      You're unaware of these "facts" because they are not facts. For example the emission contract can NOT be altered, and certainly not by the team. A re-emmission contract was added on top of the original emission contract to extend the effective duration. You could argue the tokenomics were changed, but even if that were the argument being made, it was a decision made by MINERS, showing greater than 90% consensus. Because Ergo is for miners and completely controlled by miners.
