At this point all the MHs at scrypt.cc is worth less than 200 BTC. That is 200 BTC spread over many dozens of accounts. There isn't anything there!
All this jumping up and down and screaming over 200 BTC! It is actually pretty funny.
My LTCgear accounts have more involved than that! I'm not even a large player at LTCgear! All of this fighting over crumbs on the plate.
The stream of deposits into scrypt.cc is tiny, a lot of worrying make sure people depositing 0.00096 BTC or 0.00719 BTC know that they aren't likely to ever get the BTC back!

Maybe the fires will be stoked up again, but right now the embers are barely glowing. No one there probably thinks of it as an investment anymore, it is just a game at this point. It no longer matters if it is a scam or not. That time is past.

dyask, can I ask what the point of this post was? Leaving aside whether 200 BTC is or isn't a considerable sum of money, there are threads on bitcointalk where people are worried because they've not received 0.001 BTC for their involvement in signature campaigns - what may be chump-change to you may well not be to other people. It does matter whether it's a scam - people have lost money, and it's entirely reasonable to take action to prevent further people losing money (even if you think the money they're losing is insignificant). Your post reminds me of ThorSWO's recent posts, and not in a positive way.
Unless scrypt.cc comes back, the game is already over. Saying it is worth worrying about 0.001 BTC is silly because there really isn't anything that can be done with $.25. From here the real actions will be either legal or shady ones like DOX'ing, etc. It just depends how much people are pissed off or hurt.
For myself, I don't have enough skin in the game to worry about it. If there is a large enough group so make a legal action cheap enough, maybe.
Anyway, there isn't any amount of posting here that is going to change anything. Right now people are throwing in pennies at best. It isn't an investment of any type at these levels, it is now just an empty eggshell.
I'm just putting some perspective on this issue. As far as legal action there could be enough. There was likely more than 10000 BTC milked from scrypt.cc. So there is something there. However down that road, they people out 0.001 BTC would still be out 0.001 BTC.
Respectfully, I think you're missing the point. 25c may not be much to you, but Bitcoin (and crypto in general) is not restricted to the First World. People worried about 0.001 BTC aren't going to be reassured by the prospect of legal redress, no matter how pissed off or hurt they are.
Posting here can change one thing - it can alert potential "investors" that they'll probably lose their money. That seems an entirely reasonable thing to do, and I'm surprised some people are dismissing this.
Respectively, anyone that has access to scrypt.cc has a great deal more than $.25 invested in that access. That isn't a first world issue. Sure kids haven't paid anything, but someone has paid for them. All the time I hear about people mining with "free" electricity. Get real, someone is paying the real costs. Also most of the people screaming about tiny amounts of BTC are from first world countries.
In fact at nearly 500 pages, the information is in the thread. The constant drone of warnings is just noise at this point. Not that there is a lot of other information in this thread.
It is your right to post warning after warning and believe you are changing the world. It is also my right to realize how silly and pointless it is.
