Not sure he does. He's not even a registered member of the Lakota.
Look it's not hard, I spent no more than 5 minutes googling and discovered he has a history of native activism going back years. A lot of his work was focused on bringing technology to the reservations. In December be sat down for an interview and initially talked of bringing Bitcoin to the Lakotas but obviously it's morphed into its own coin since then.
Is it fibbing to call it the "official" currency for the tribe, probably, but the guy didn't just come out of nowhere to make this coin, and if he was out to enrich himself, well the boat on the first pump has sailed and the premine was never cashed out. How will he make his scam money now on a dead coin?
Exactly, everything about this coin has had validity yet people are trying to dispute this. We even seen some racism in this thread. Its ridiculous and so much negativity for no cause but to lead people on panic selling to make money. Sad greedy world we live in. To the idiots who troll and spread FUD get the fuck out of this thread and go support your shit alt coin until proof says otherwise about MAZA.
