Given the popularity of the topic
ChangeNow.io (Evercode Lab) - Scam. Illegally holding of 100 BCH (11 bitcoins)
and the appearance of new accusations in a selective scam it's time to talk about people associated with ChangeNOW.io

ChangeNOW.io and Evercode Lab

This is a last page of NOW token whitepaper. They deleted this page at the escalating of 100 BCH conflict - when information about these people began to be published (approximately on July 20).

All these people are from St. Petersburg (I'm not sure about Konstantin Gladych). ATOMIC PROTOCOL SYSTEMS OÜ and GUARDARIAN OÜ are offshore companies. Estonia is popular offshore zone for Russia businessmen. And also this is the closest country for St. Petersburg.

I don't think that Changelly is managed from Russia but the fact that all these companies are extremely close to each other is undeniable. These people work together in all companies. It's just one big St Petersburg family.

PS: These people have such nice addresses
hello@atomicwallet.io
hello@guarda.co
hello@evercodelab.com
but unfortunately they ignored all the emails sent to them :(

2018-09-18

Yesterday Сhangelly announced a new CEO Ilya Bere (backup)
They said that he became a CEO on September 1 (backup)
But it's strange that the news about the change of CEO began to appear only yesterday (just google it)

It also looks strange because the former CEO Konstantin Gladych wrote about his departure from Changelly on September 10 (backup)

There is also some doubt about one more point... These people were notified of "this story" on September 9th. September 9th, the information about strong connection between the companies were sent to Atomic, ChangeNOW, Guarda, Ink, Evercode Lab. September 10th, the information were sent to Changelly.

It is also necessary to say that the new CEO Ilya Bere is also from St. Petersburg. At the moment, his linkedin page shows Estonia, but if you look at the companies in which he worked before, it turns out that almost all of them are in St. Petersburg. He as well as Roman Lapin (ChangeNOW CEO and Evercode Lab co-founder) studied at St. Petersburg university ITMO.
