Sent an email to the "reply to" field to have the address removed from any and all lists they have, in addition to any link my email has with any forum they have. Otherwise, I probably will pursue.

CAN-SPAM violations can have up to a $16k penalty for every email; it would be in everyones best interest (except GAW) to file if they opt to do nothing.

That's funny...
I did file a report the other day about the canspam stuff...

Now I get another one, from "HashTalk" saying I opted in...

At this point I am very tempted to do more than just complain. Not only are they violating canspam in several respects, they also don't know the meaning of remove.

I actually specifically asked to be removed from all databases my hashtalk account was in, in addition to unsubscribing using the links they put in the bottom of their notification emails, unsub'ing from the news emails they did ages ago, and any other emails from GAW. Not that I haven't done business with GAW for over 6 months, it can be classified as unsolicited email

None of this stuff needs FUD anymore; GAW makes their own FUD ffs.

Pretty damn sure I unsubscribed from any lists that GAW had me on, and based on their privacy policy, they wouldn't share info with other parties (companies in this case.)

I'm not in the loop per-se, but if GAW changed their name to this crypto private investor group, then they still managed to cock it up and send me unsolicited spam.
If however this company is a different entity, then they have shared 'personal details' and broken their privacy policy.

We have a pool at multicoinpool.org.
For those interested, the current stats:

That's funny.

You suck at doing what you advertise and is why your service obviously is of no use to anyone in this community.

Feel sorry for the people who fell for this; just goes to show how gullible most of the people here are. :|

You are fully aware that the price will NEVER go up. Sell now or you will be more at a loss for when it gets delisted.

As been stated, The dev is icanprogram. so anything by him, should not be trusted. Also rather interesting if you dig, he might be the owner of the chickenstrips pools, or have very close ties.

As per this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760755.msg8754149#msg8754149

icanprogram also is a scammer and should not be trusted at all.
Hence why when I had the talks with him about the centralization, he took Midas's side.
0 BTC was given to myself or BTCSpoon for proving centralization.

The coinsource wasn't removed, HOWEVER because this infact was a scam, coinsource itself should not be trusted.
As per http://www.coinssource.com/trustindex-faq/ "Why are you charging this fee?" under 3:

All in all, some great drama to watch and hopefully a lesson to people that

• NEVER trust anything centralized
• NEVER mine without knowing what you were mining
• ALWAYS do sanity checks. "Backed by gold; but where is said gold. Pics or GTFO."

Logs of my chat with Icanprogram:

also, a note after my rather large notice to him:
<9.20.14><16.52.32.pm> I am not in a discussion with you, and I am not part of the midascoin company


Scamcoin is a scam.

And if anyone wants to agree with me, please join me in that channel (#bountyhunterXX) for a 'third party' review.

It should be noted that icanprogram stated that it is now centralized (as if it wasn't already.)

He did sign with it.
Both of the 'whitepapers' on the Midas site were written by him.
The block tax and the transaction tax.

Well, I just got booted from the channel...
Might as well release the full logs of the channel and the queries with Midas.

Will edit post when ready.

Querys with Midascoin: (again, small snipbits of me disconnecting removed.) http://pastebin.com/2G8v1xtb

It should be noted that I have failed to receive the 10 BTC bounty placed on 'Prove that block generation is centralized.' To which my answer is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760755.msg8753420#msg8753420

Midas keeps disagreeing with me, and has nothing to say on WHY I'm wrong. So he has to call in the developer, who of course will say that it isn't centralized.
I was given a timeline of 24 hours once I made the support ticket for the bounty, and it has been pushed back and back and back... Now it's at 96 hours that I should expect a conversation with the actual dev about this.

Midas does not know how a coin works and keep saying that it wasn't a 51% attack.

Again, he doesn't know what he is talking about:
"All BlockChains of MidasCoin used during development will be destroyed, with a fresh genesis block created for the release."
of which the whole 'accounting' stuff means nothing and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=784286.msg8845038#msg8845038 is just outright.

Another outright lie is this gem from the IRC channel:

I find it funny... Not only do they not have interest in an exchange (them reaching out or otherwise) apparently they have to be audited, which we can all see how much security Midas has with a 51% attack in the past.

Apparently they spent 15k Euro developing the 'merchant API,' and are paying icanprogram 90 Euro an hour.

You must set it to mine under the Coin/Miner settings tab.

Some look Tor-ish or behind a proxy, however most have their ISP IP such as the following (just a subset)
hsd1.fl.comcast.net
dynamic.ziggo.nl
kabel-deutschland.de
lv.lv.cox.net


If you have a node connected to enough peers you can track what peer relayed a transaction to you. Given a large enough amount of data, you can get pretty accurate with it.
There was a whitepaper published about that but I'd have to find the pdf again.

If you want the proof, go onto lfnet and join #sdcoin00 (the channel that is in the source.)

Calling BS...

This is NOT stealth at all based on the irc.cpp : https://github.com/JohnnyXCash/XCash/blob/master/src/irc.cpp#L315
Connects via IRC, and I now have 92 IPs of people that use this coin.
If it was easy for me to do it, then it is easy for anyone.

As such I highly recommend that people do not use this coin as you have an impression that it is anon, when it clearly is not.

Crap coin, not adding to my pool.

So then where is that 10 BTC bounty you placed on Twitter...
Still waiting for it to be sent to my address.

If you read, I stated that Because only 1 address can actually get the coinbase (anything else is disallowed) that means that only 1 address can confirm blocks. When you confirm a block, you verify transactions inside. Edit: In this case, verify meaning that the validity of the transaction in the block is accurate. Not just the hash of the transaction.

Hence from my previous statement, the central node (according to the blockchain; since the authenticity of anyone else mining on the address CANNOT be made,) is the only node that can confirm blocks and transactions.

As far as I am concerned, this coin is not minable, and you are renting your hashrate to a pool, which as far as I can tell, is not trustworthy.

This coin was on my radar, then I did some investigating.

Because of this: https://github.com/MidasPaymentLTD/midascoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L1778
This disallows ANY pool or solo miner from using their own address for a block to be accepted.

Now, skip ahead to here: https://github.com/MidasPaymentLTD/midascoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L4290
You CAN mine, but it wont matter what address you or the pool uses, it will automatically go to the 'tax address.'

Now, this is NOT decentralized. Sure, the VERIFICATION of blocks and transactions is decentralized, CONFIRMS are not. Confirms are when blocks confirm each other in the hashchain.

Since you cannot have a different publickey for an address to generate a block (or have it be accepted by the network at any rate) block generation is centralized.

I don't know what others do, but everything that is relating to payouts with my multipool is public. (reference http://multicoinpool.org/index.php?page=statistics&action=round add the totals minus Perfection and Southpaw; testing autotrade together right now.)

I also don't "gain on the difficulty." If it happens to be profitable using math, then that is what is mined. (reference http://multicoinpool.org/index.php?page=statistics&action=profitability )

If other multipools don't give enough transparency I can see where you are coming from, but you are assuming that all are bad apples because there could (not implying there is or isn't,) be a trend with a few popular pools.
