I think it's one stupid idea.
Basically you crypt your files and the only way to get it the decrypted is by sending a sum to an address from which those guys take a fee?
Correct me if I'm wrong but from their tiny instructions, this is all I could figure.

Besides, it's not ransomware, it's more like masochistware to me.

@Strufmbae, obviously, this application its not suitable to find your private keys and if you lost them its impossible to get back your bitcoins.  Cry
