Basically, if this were a scam, Ken would literally be the stupidest scam artist of all time. ...
What's your point? The guy writes at preschool level, knows nothing about electronics and can't keep his eyes open for PR pics. Scamming here requires little effort and even less intelligence. He got your coin - that's a win, no?
*P.S: Another thing that Labcoin didn't do is keep its shareholders from trading. Ken, OTOH, is not only keeping you from trading, but is dumping stock at 80% below IPO price while he's doing it.
AFA "known identity"? The guys who "visited" Ken are Babefoot, who mysteriously appeared and dissipated right after vouching for Ken, and Bargraphics, the guy who also visited Terrahash and raged at everyone suggesting that Terrahash ain't 100% legit.
Pirateat40's identity was also always well known. He now has some civil case against him, but the extent of the pwnage still has to be seen. The worst likely fallout Ken will see from this is a few tort cases by large "shareholders," which will be settled for a tiny fraction of the coin raised.
