No, that is NOT obvious.  If thetorcoin had intended it to be a pump and dump scam, there is no earthly reason why he wouldn't have dumped by now.  And there would definitely be no reason for him to post his wallets openly for all to see and keep track of.  (Carsen, on the other hand, may be a pump-and-dumper, but he is not the impetus behind this coin, and is no longer a part of it.)

Making unfounded claims like that, only undermines your own credibility.  Just as leaving claims which do not accurately reflect the current reality posted on the Torcoin website and on the initial ANN post, undermines thetorcoin's credibility as someone who can be counted on to be transparent and have integrity.
