I do not really want certain people to embrace it. Honestly what I see in current mining and pools business is scam above scam. Not going to point a finger but certain pools simply rips off their miners, and there is no way miner can protect himself except one - do ot participate in mining whenevere there is no need for that. Speaking of case&desist letter - will you care to explain me what reason CraigsList have to do that? I mean I honestly heared it several times from different people, but nobody ever provided a single law excerpt.
Will you care to put some ground under your words, or should people treat all your words as equaly groundless as your case and desist statement? This may be important because you providing pool services - you make promises to your customers - thay have to know that you are not just throwing words in the air like that.
Thank you.
Oh, c'mon. One doesn't need a law degree to see how this is going to tick off Craigslist! You are obviously trying to rip them off as this coin is for
classified ads, for god's sake. What is wrong with you?
Even if, as you say, nothing can be done to stop the blockchain once launched, it will be irrelevant for investors in the short to medium term at least. Craigslist can sue you for every last BTC raised and more. And even if you ultimately "win" and are allowed to profit off
classified ads, using their exact name (highly doubtful), the bad publicity for the coin will have investors bailed out long before. And that's not even discussing the press reaction once it gets a hold of the fact that this is another drug coin.
Do you seriously think that one can just call a coin say, "Amazon" coin and sell books on the blockchain? "Budweiser" coin and for a beer coin?
Seriously, what are you people thinking? The idea is decent (although ads lasting forever seems stupid), if not fully fleshed out. But to name it CraigsCoin and then sound indignant that people might think that a very strange choice, clearly means that not a lot of thought has gone into this venture.
I like IPO/ICOs and am a regular investor, but no thanks on this one.
