I don't want to pretend I'm a lawyer, but from my understanding, all I am doing is mining BTC.  Last I checked, that was legal.  NastyFans are also trading fan club seats amongst each other, so there really isn't any banking or anything like that going on as with the other exchanges.  However, I feel the best way to address this concern is to continue diversifying the operation.  I suspect over the next couple months you will see a few new products/services relating to NastyFans.  I have been hard at work, as has nonnakip for quite some time on a few different projects/services that will benefit current seat owners.  My hope is that you, the NastyFans, will join together at some point in the very near future to strengthen our mining network to multiple locations around the globe.  Get ready.  Exciting things are coming.
