Pablo Escobar’s Brother Launched a Cryptocurrency ‘Dietbitcoin’

Jeder Cryptocurrency is a digital currency, which operates independently of a central bank. Right now, the cryptomarket is incredibly competitive, with almost 1,800 different types of digital coins, all competing for a share of the market. The blockchain world is truly full of surprises. One such surprise is Dietbitcoin. The brother of late Columbian drug lord Pablo Escobar, Roberto Escobar, has released his own alternative to Bitcoin (BTC), a BTC hard fork called dietbitcoin (DDX).

Roberto Escobar, who served over 11 years in a most extreme security jail for his part as a bookkeeper for the Medellin cartel, has launched the coin through Escobar Inc., a private venture organization.

He said “I  am the first person in  the world, Roberto De Jesus Escobar Gaviria, to publicly come out and claim that Bitcoin was created by the American Government, and I  am not going to be the last person to say this. The world is going to wake up. The world is going to see that this was created by them. And when they see it, it is too late,  and when the CIA founds out that the world knows about this, the CIA is going to sell all of their coins,and they will destroy the value of Bitcoin…That’s why I am creating my own cryptocurrency called dietbitcoin(DDX).”

According to dietbitcoin’s website , this cryptocurrency uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of dietbitcoins is carried out collectively by the network. Dietbitcoin is an open-source; its design is public, nobody owns or controls it and everyone can take part. Through many of its unique properties, it allows exciting uses that could not be covered by any previous payment system. You can read more about it here.

The company claims that it will use the SHA-256 Proof-of-work (PoW) mining algorithm, DXX coins will also be distributed through an initial coin offering (ICO) that offers pre-ICO contributors a 99.8 percent discount off the main sale.

“Everyone should listen to these news, go to www.dietbitcoinICO.org  and buy as many dietbitcoin’s as you can afford, the value will be very high as we are identical in numbers to Bitcoin, except we are 4000 times cheaper right now” says Daniel Reitberg, Chief Operating Officer of Escobar Inc. Coin specification is as shown in below figure

Escobar has additionally published a 280-page eBook — Pablo Escobar’s Dietbitcoin: the True Story of Roberto Escobar — that indicates to plot his vision for Dietbitcoin. In spite of the fact that it commits most by far of its space to chronicling the life of his sibling, Pablo, the single section dedicated to the cryptocurrency contains some genuine jewels. Most remarkably, Escobar claims to have met Bitcoin maker Satoshi Nakamoto, who he says needed to band together with the Escobar family to make another cryptographic money. Escobar even showed a photocopy of Satoshi’s passport as verification of the meeting.

He further said that, “I can tell you with one-hundred percent certainty, one-thousand percent certainty, one-hundred-million percent certainty that the American Government is going to ruin it all because they are behind the Bitcoin. Because my coin is not a scam. You are free to buy the coin or not buy the coin. I don’t care. You can stick with your worthless coins. Keep the Ethereum, Keep the TRON, keep the Ripple, keep the Bitcoin. You will see what happens. They will all go to zero, almost zero,” he concludes. “But not my coin. Because my coin, this is going to be my new work in life.”
