If the point is to save on taxes, why the hell did your lawyer recommend you to open up a gGmbh in Germany? There are so many difficulties. Just open a company in Dubai in Free zone, you'll get 0% tax on capital gain, thin capitalization, no VAT,no stamp duty , simple pay 2000 AED per year and that's it! And you can do it within 2 weeks, including time to residence visa approval for the manager.

 

As a gGmbH you won't have to pay corporate nor commercial tax if Google Translate is correct.

A stupid attempt...  

The original account is LiskHQ, not LiskQH.
Looks like the same as on Twitter with Max Kodrek instead of Max Kordek.

But the good thing is, the official Twitter account of Lisk is now verified by Twitter.

Lol, not quite agree with your statement.
1)
"Btw. as the ICO started in Germany, it is not so easy to take the money and go somewhere."  - It's crypto. you can transfer it whenever you want. andy offshore, and they will never ask any question if you fill KYC profile.
2)  It's not mandatory for Max to sit in Dubai office. You can appoint nominee director which will rule the company with strict limit from it's shareholder (Max & Co). Who the hell will qualify it's office as Zwischengesellschaft", if the company will be settled in the Free economy zone, will do it's business outside of Dubai, and International law will apply, in particully, competition law and law of incorporation.

1. How can the ability to transfer money qualify or not qualify, if it has to be taxed or not? If it would be so easy, I would just settle up a company in Dubai, Delaware or so, pay someone a salary there and ask all my clients to pay me offshore.

You are normally taxed, where you are working or where your income appeared and not, where you transfer the money later.

2. It is mandatory, that the business decisions are made in Dubai etc. How it makes ("nominee director" or current CEO) doesn't matter. But some straw man director doesn't work and the shareholders are also not allowed to be representative, because otherwise you would have a operational site in Germany again.

3. If - as you tell - you settle in Dubai and you are doing business outside of Dubai, how you can proof, that it is not in Germany. Which you need to proof in this case and which make everything much more worse.

3. For further discussion please check § 50d EStG, AStG and the DBAs between Germany and V.A.E. before.

Why would you think that?

So I am out. I even was going to be a delegate etc. Let's recap things.

Here are some points:

1) Lisk is a javascript coin. I am a javascript developer. I like javascript but it is not meant for very big codebases in the backend.
The javascript that is on the github repo is old. it doesn't use promises or the es6 syntax. it's like a legacy codebase.
2)Having a limited number of delegates cannot scale for very obvious reasons. Vertical scalability is not good for decentralization purposes.
3)Lisk hasn't got a whitepaper

State of affairs:

1) Lisk has no meaningful development for the last months
2) Lisk promised delegates from the beggining of its launch which still isn't the case
3) Lisk made a very bad launch that couldn't even get the client going , they had the wrong tests in place
4) Lisk has failed to hire any developer for months.
5) Lisk has failed to make a company, you could do that in Estonia in one day and many other countries. Yes legal issues but they could/should get resolved.

All in all, Lisk got MILLIONS in funding and had done NOTHING. What makes you think things will change? And why does it matter if things change? Progress will be super slow.

In my personal opinion, it's either that the Lisk team is incompetent or they will slowly transform into a scam/failed project (deliberately).

And yes, I first sold my coins at a loss after months and then wrote this message. Good luck to the other poor investors.

Look when a "company's" only news is details of its hiring process and details of the decor and color of its offices you know you are in a world of shit. 

There is one fork already, looks promising:
[ANN][SHIFT] Decentralize the web

Agreed, they are still very unprofessional( CEO uses smileys on his every sentence when he replies for  fucks sake ), to the point of proving to be incompetent.
Making it look like a failing project and taking the money looks as the obvious choice right now.
