This is a bit of a PR disaster.
Completely unneeded action.
He's the public face of Monero, and a stunt like this really hurts Monero's reputation.
Exactly. I've never trusted that man, he don't inspire trust, he's vulgar and greasy.
I think it is very bad for Monero to be represented by that person. And I don't even speak about convictions, the second some big government agency will knock his door he will sell his mother.
Sold all my Moneros (859) now back to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Serious business.
