Money I guess. I thought that people had already forgotten this. There are so many better to choose from and if there's no other choice, mine is to choose any other than this.

IIRC, Roger Ver which is the founder of this shit coin was already arrested due to tax evasion case. I wonder if mining this coin is still appropriate if the founder which holds huge share of this coin is a nasty person.

He founded that and supported it all along and AFAIK, tax evasion and tax fraud are two different cases. But he's into tax fraud: Early Bitcoin Investor Charged with Tax Fraud

Op got an answer already, but when did we move on to shaming people on what they mine? I know that most of old PoW altcoins and their mining have been replaced by flood of tokens and PoS these days,
but i really can't remember people shaming each other for altcoin mining before, and it's not like BHC was really a threat to bitcoin at any point, at least not anymore by being a "wrong" coin, so it's isn't even relevant hate target anymore than any other altcoin. Miners used to support anything with incentives, and these days i kinda weirdly respect people for mining without getting enough incentives (if we set aside power consuption in age of global warming)

And about that Roger Ver's tax fraud? Were people really surprised? I feel like majority of OG crypto people are libertarians and against reporting their bitcoin usage to government. I always felt like oddball in here for supporting the very idea of regulations in crypto and taxes in general. So calling him nasty for possibly just following generic cypherpunk ethos is like throwing stones in a huge glass house.
