But what if forum moderation policies change and those coins get banned?

Wouldn't it be safer to have copies of these coins in other forums?

I know a guy in Utah!
Seriously, I love this thread. Albeit, created tongue-in-cheek, I think, therefore I am penning this, that this Abstract Coin thingy has the potential of sproutin' legs. Maybe not in its current iteration, but tweaked and relaunched, it could do better.
That said, we need a foundation. I suggest that the founding members be pillars of the Abstract Coin community, with Adam as the chief scientist. And yes, it's a paying position, as has already been demonstrated--Adam pays himself.
The Abstract Coin genesis block should include the following news headline: US Government Seizes LibertyReserve.com
People are weird! They're probably more apt to get their head wrapped around Abstract Coin then Bitcoin.
Abstract Coin should be designed so that it's never capable of laundering money. Although laundering crypto-currency may be one of its uses.
Adam, what's the current market cap of Abstract Coin?
Benefits of Abstract Coin:
- No electricity cost associated with it since no mining rigs are use.
- One only has, and will be ever created, albeit divisible by X.
Feel free to add to the above.
i think Abstract Coin has some potential, but in it current form it is hard to verify claims to Abstract Coins, hopefully i can come up with a way to overcome this difficulty.
