Thank you very much for the information about sunlot and Brock Pierce.
I remember the case Bruce Wagener and how mtgox (Mark Karpales) defended its affiliation with him, even when there was no doubt about his shady/criminal history.
Yet back then, bitcoiners did generally not tolerate, that a pedophile conartist promotes their beloved investment.
Today it seems to be different. A simple google search is required to reveal the shady history of Brock Pierce and yet this guy gets not only a lot of positive media attention, but also a director seat at the Bitcoin Foundation.
Someone kick these bitcoin-media-sunlot-cheerleaders please.
