What Happened to POKT Team? We Need Your Support to Get POKT Token back

On January four, 2022, Hotbit noticed some irregular deposits of POKT token and instantly disabled POKT buying and selling/ deposit& withdrawal (announcement hyperlink) earlier than speaking with the POKT group very quickly.

Hotbit has performed an intensive investigation and reviewed all the course of, and current the detailed documentation (hyperlink to technical evaluation). Transient conclusion is as follows:

  1. POKT group is chargeable for the event and upkeep of all the pockets technical documentation and block explorer.
  2. The doc was faulty when Hotbit built-in the POKT pockets on December 20, 2021, and this defect couldn’t be detected by means of the block explorer. (After the incident was reported by Hotbit, POKT group fastened the bug on the documentation and explorer)
  3. This defect led to a small variety of customers making pretend deposits. Because of the defect of the block explorer, Hotbit’s danger management group couldn’t determine the chance appropriately, which ultimately led to a deficit of two,461,317 POKT on Hotbit platform. Hooked up all pretend deposits tx (pretend tx documentation hyperlink)
  4. POKT group is partially chargeable for this accident for offering faulty documentation and block explorer.

So as to shield rightful curiosity of Hotbit customers, Hotbit has made nice efforts to achieve out for making up the two,461,317 POKT deficit. The data obtained throughout the entire course of is as follows:

  1. The traders of POKT are in a lock-up interval, so they can’t promote tokens to assist us.
  2. POKT group has been promoting numerous unlocked POKT tokens from POKT’s staking reward within the OTC market over the previous 12 months. Subsequently, POKT group has numerous POKT tokens of their palms.

Based mostly on the above in addition to POKT group’s partial duty for the incident, Hotbit proposed to the POKT group that Hotbit might  buy of tokens on the value of personal spherical to compensate customers.

Sadly, Micheal, the founding father of POKT, has been prevented conversations and  refused to reply from Jan 6th until 13th this complete time although Alex, the technical director of POKT, has admitted that he noticed spam deposits  on January 6.  On January 13, one other alleged POKT member, Adam, made a proposition to Hotbit that we might go to POKT DAO and provoke a movement to strive treasury compensation.

And here’s what we expect:

DAO is a good governance device but it shouldn’t be a handy device to let the wrongful conduct off the hook. POKT group is chargeable for the incident due to the improper doc. If we’re fortunate, the DAO movement will get handed so Hotbit customers would get well from the loss; oh wait, but when the DAO movement ought to get denied, does that imply POKT group can be exempted and name it “the need of the group”?

The reply is clear. And we imagine POKT group must be held chargeable for false documentation it doesn’t matter what the DAO movement votes or what-they-may-call-it” will of the group”. Secondly, not one of the traders have issued cash, in the meantime POKT group have been promoting numerous staking rewards of POKTs available in the market, indicating that voting management is probably going of their palms. POKT group has proven refusal to take duty, can we rely on them to vote sure even when the DAO movement is initiated?

After Hotbit expressed this to POKT group, Adam really started to slander Hotbit for promoting counterfeit cash, utterly ignoring the truth that Alex, a core member of his technical group, admitted many pretend deposits tx (pretend tx doc hyperlink)

Based mostly on the above, Hotbit strongly condemns the dereliction of obligation of POKT group founder Micheal, and group member Adam’s refusal to cooperate and slander!
