Possibly the funniest thing is that all the Scrypt.cc defenders are so busy calling FUD and Trolls and losing their shit that they don't even realize that nearly every other page has people providing viable alternatives.
I can tell you guys now that if anyone were to fly down to Brazil to find Marcello Santos and the "information Technology" company that was posted way way back in the thread that neither exist. Brazil is only where the website is hosted from, "Marcello Santos" is only a name and might as well be "Jesus, your lord and unsavior" because there is nothing to prove the name, I looked for information on the company myself and it does not exist.
So there is no registered company, really?
The only reference I found to the Scrypt.cc parent company mentioned "tecnologia-da-informacao" (translated to information technology which is a loose term meaning computer store), was "Brazil Ltda Information Technology: the optional ticket scam"

The phone number listed on their whois for scrypt.cc is
fake so even if you did actually find a company that might match, you could still not prove conclusively they are the same company unless Marshmellow Scamtos himself had his ID witnessed by a guarantor, video proving his own identity, the mining wharehouse, and proved those miners were in fact mining.
And yes, I do actually research things.
