Kanye can go F*cK himself if he has a problem with this coin. And especially the copyright firms! hONESTLY they can't do anything about the coin. Kanye doesnt own the name Coinye or the name West. Also the face on the coin is just a black dude with sunglasses and a shape up who just so happens to look like him. I'm pretty sure dev if you put somewhere a disclaimer that you are in no way trying to impersonate Kanye West then you should be fine. These big time legal firms just love to shove around the little guy
I agree, the image on the coinye west homepage is now also slightly changed, so will be very hard to start a case against.
What is more important, is the fact that the coin already got a lot of media attention over the last months, which will not go unnoticed when the coin launches on January 11th.
I'll definitely be mining this coin with all resources.
