This is really funny. You don't need to own any paycoin, just import the private key in the wallet. This private key is a number you saw on the internet, and a number cannot be patented. You can write them into the coinbase string of a block in some shitcoin and many people will have a copy of it stored.
Don't let them intimidate you, if I write my gmail password in my github repo then its my fault if people look into my emails. That's not different here.
If you don't have any coins what would your shiny new prime controller do? How would you know if it's doing anything? How would you know if the key is even still valid?
I don't know. Why are you trying to discourage people from experimenting to figure it out?
