I am not sure if there are legal grounds for a lawsuit, but when you think about it, the coin creator did make a false claim.

There were many false stories, certainly.
But is there an actual false statement directly from Harris?
Mostly he seems to have said things like 'designed to be the sovereign currency', which is true.
I don't know if you can actually find his fingerprints on the misinformation.

I don't recall, to be honest. But if you go to the maza website right now, you see this:
First Sovereign National Crypto-Coin In History

How can it be the FIRST sovereign national crypto-coin, if it's not currently a sovereign national crypto-coin?
They probably can get away with it, as I have no idea what legal terms or claims are needed for a lawsuit. But they certainly imply it's an official currency of the tribe.

I'm fairly positive (no proof) that http://maplecoin.cf/ had something up like "Unofficial National Cryptocurrency of Canada" or something similar and was changed a little after to what it says now which is "National Crypto-Currency For Canada And The World." I bet that AnonymousPirate came up with that wording on the Mazacoin site and it has not been changed since. It's very misleading and in my opinion, and forgetting about the insane devaluation, why a lot of people are down on this coin. It's fine to hope that this will be the first coin but the wording makes one believe it IS a sovereign national currency. It is clearly not as of 3/19/14. This is why I stopped mining it and why I will not be touching Maplecoin.
