it All began in June of 2018, when former Paypal employees Saar Wilf has started a new payment network: Initiative Q. It should form the basis for a new digital currency called Q. In order to move as many people as possible to Join in, decided to Wilf and his colleague Lawrence White, the Q-coins for free.

Enter the number of your data, you must verify the logged-in Person the identity of these people. Then there’s more Q for the Welcoming. Anyone can join, without large use, without a large risk. The earlier it is, the more Q you will receive.
With this strategy, the Initiative has Q according to their own information, more than four million people worldwide to submit their data for a few digital coins. This number impressed due to the shortness of the time, the makers have achieved. It is also impressive given the fact that there is no currency Q.

This is a Problem that even the most well-known crypto-currency in the world, Bitcoin is not solved until today and, therefore, not enough user; of the high transaction costs and the long transmission paths apart.

The financial expert Michaela Hönig, Professor of business administration at the Frankfurt University for Applied Sciences, referred to Q as a game of money.

Responded to the accusation of pyramid scheme founder Wilf says to Vox.com that it was normally to the shift of money. The rate of return, such as that of the shareholder of a company receives, will then be funded with the money invested in a new shareholder.
