C1. This is a 2017 ICO Project, where the project the last date of ICO was on 27th June 2017

C3. While it is not the typical ICO Exit Scam (such as Denaro), there are seems to be some very serious issues with this project & team based on these reports:
a) https://steemit.com/ico/@cool4y/nvo-ico-scam-confirmed
b) List of other uncompleted project: https://steemit.com/xenio/@prisoneroflies/due-diligence-on-nvst

09.08.2018 08:40:26, ton [@tonbi]: tldr: nemgun tried to withdraw 500 btc without the approval of yanni since he disappeared. Nemgun can't prove the existence of the validator. I contacted escrow and they blocked further access. Escrows forced a vote because they don't want to act as judges. Until nemgun agree to do a buyback with me we will have to continue with the vote. Since escrows are on vacation and won't be back until several more days I am trying to setup the vote to speed things up however it will take awhile. We will be using counterparty to do the vote as the official vote.
09.08.2018 08:42:35, Nixims [@Nixims]: Pinned?
.....09.08.2018 08:46:11, ton [@tonbi]: >>unsupported service message type: messageActionPinMessage<<
09.08.2018 08:46:17, Jeffrey: So should one that was waiting for wallet to sweep nvst tokens, sweep now?
09.08.2018 08:47:29, RadiumInHuman: Does the two first milestones funds where dedicated to your part of the project or only the second one ? Do you share equally the funds released by the first milestone achievement ? It is strange to deV the wallet alone the. Dev the validator, in my opinion both wallet& validator have to be dev in parallele ..
09.08.2018 08:48:35, ton [@tonbi]: Check the screenshots I provided from skype in the media section of this telegram.
09.08.2018 08:50:16, Nixims [@Nixims]: Probably we should if we want to buy btc for our NVST
09.08.2018 08:55:15, Jeffrey: ??
09.08.2018 08:55:35, Nixims [@Nixims]: Ton: "nemgun tried to withdraw 500 btc without the approval of yanni since he disappeared. Nemgun can't prove the existence of the validator." Does this not proof he tried to scam, but did not succeed? Aka he is a scammer?
09.08.2018 08:56:47, ton [@tonbi]: He tried to access funds that were already released by the milestones. He is allowed to do that however it would need at least permission from Yanni and I
09.08.2018 08:57:41, ton [@tonbi]: Since yanni disappeared and I can't see proof of a validator after 1 year I need to take actions against him and he is removed from the project.
09.08.2018 08:58:27, Nixims [@Nixims]: It is beyond me that there still are ppl willing to a degree to defend Nemgun
09.08.2018 08:58:31, ton [@tonbi]: This is after months of failed promises, lies and ignoring questions from the community about the validator.
09.08.2018 09:00:23, ton [@tonbi]: There's no reason he should hide the source code from the community. Provide evidence of the existence of the validator and he can move forward.
09.08.2018 09:01:06, Nixims [@Nixims]: Because there is non, that is what he is hiding
09.08.2018 09:04:17, Nixims [@Nixims]: Scammers don't want to work for the money, just take it

In summary, having reviewed some of the discussions in their official Telegram group, while one of their co-cofounder Yanni who is non-existent in the chat group and may have gone rogue, the other founder CEO Ton @tonbi is still holding the fort.

C5. Based on the complaint, their product may still have some very rough edges and they Ton+team might still be able to work it out?

C6: What is your smart contact address?

C7: NVO is operating under which company - would appreciate if you could share with us (a) name of the company, (b) company website, (c) company registration number, (d) office address so that we can visit you, (e) date of registration, and (f) country of incorporation.

C8. Who are the company directors of NVO?

C9: What is the token lockup/vesting period for the team members?

C10: Any reason why there seems to be no advisor for your project?

C11: What is the token lockup/vesting period for the institutional investors (if any)?

C13: Where is Yanni now and what is your plan regarding him?

C14: What's your Github address?

C15. For Ton's sake, I'm initiating my rating at T=2 V=3 P=2 but I hope to hear from Ton to clear up various misunderstanding in the above before things get worse. I will revise my ratings after receiving further responses to above comments and questions - both from me and from the external websites.

For your reply, pls use this notation, R1 for C1, R2 for C2, ..., R15 for C15.
