AristoDogs founder Under Four

AristoDogs, a Cronos-based Non-Fungible Token (NFT) collection, has been in the spotlight when the community made accusations against the founder, which led him to transfer the project to a new team.

Some members of the community accused the founder, Cesar, of failing to keep the promises made in the roadmap and alleged that he had connections to Trippin Panda and CyberClone. Both of these projects are under investigation Cronos Research due to lack of communication with society. But what is the real story behind AristoDog?

In a recent Medium article, the founder said he is neither part of the CyberClone team nor Trippin Panda. He also mentioned that the main problem with AristoDogs was delayed hosting of the raffle. The founder claims that the secondary developer in charge of the raffle was slow to respond due to many delays.

It’s been 2 months since I’ve been fighting with them about the host lottery by setting deadlines so that they can speed up the development and it’s already been a few days that I don’t have any news from them, more than 2 months that I’m waiting and that the community is waiting …

After receiving backlash from the community, the AristoDogs founder deleted the project’s Discord channel. The community did not support this move by Cesar and he received several negative reactions as a result.

Cesar what’s the problem with explaining the situation on Discord?
That’s how you kill all FUD
You need 5 minutes “Guys we have some problems with the developers, we will find a new solution”.
OFC if you disappear people start fudging and they are right

“A lot of people are very angry with me, and I understand, I guess, but I’m in no way against the project. I deleted the disagreement because I was tired of receiving threats that at times went too far,” Cesar said in the Medium article .

A new start

In addition, Cesar said that he would confide Balon_Blaugrana with running the project. In addition to the 96 AristoDogs NFTs Cesar already has, all remaining project funds will be sent to him so the project can get a fresh start.

However, members of the community still questioned the founder’s intentions since he announced the date of the raffle without being sure if the development would be completed on time:

Why did you announce a release date if you weren’t sure that development would be completed?

What about the suspicious movements with the DAO portfolio?

The promised and unrealized airdrops?

If you were honest, you would answer all the questions from society.

“Project owners should realize that it is better to be transparent and tell the truth immediately than to avoid it,” Cronos Research told Web3Wire. “Talking about the problem can lead to understanding from society, but staying silent only leads to the worst-case scenarios so far. Whatever the true reason behind being quiet is.”

Later, the project tweeted that a new Discord channel had been created, funds had been received, and NFT marketplace Ebisus Bay had doxxed the team:

Good morning dogs. It’s been a crazy 48 hours, but in the meantime we have:

– Got control of the twitter account
– Created new discord channel
– Got some of the funds back
– Got our royalties reactivated

And just a couple of hours ago we passed Doxx @EbisusBay

Following these positive signs, some community members expressed optimism that the project will turn around:
