This will end well: Coinye fires back own C&D letter
15 replies, posted
[quote]Just four days after Kanye West’s attorney sent a cease and desist letter to the anonymous group behind Coinye, the cryptocurrency’s developers have turned around and responded with a cease and desist letter of their own.
In a letter sent Friday to West’s attorney Brad Rose and various media outlets (including Ars Technica) the “Coinye Coin Worldwide Team” decries Rose’s original letter.
The letter refers to “constant harassment and scare tactics” on behalf of West against the Coinye community—including other cease and desist letters against related sites. Coinye's Friday letter also refers to West’s “pending applications” of the Coinye trademark....[/quote]

Can't wait till they get sued for everything they have over their gimmicky crypto-coin
Coinye is promising to be at least as annoying as Kayne.
now they're using a 5 year old south park joke. I hate these guys.

What are you talking about? FP rabidly likes to defend Kanye in SH.
I have like 50k of these mined from launch :v:
Come on homies what happened? You niggas ain't breathing, you gasping.
I'm confused about why coinye is so hated on these boards. Just based on the name and this response it seems pretty clear to me that it's a joke and not a serious attempt at making something similar to bitcoin. So why is everyone so negative towards it?

Because the idiots who follow these crypto-coins maintain a facade of it being one big joke when they seriously hope it will take off and earn them megabucks. People start mining it ironically, but because the communities surrounding crypto-currencies are populated with hopeful morons ironic mining soon becomes serious mining. It happened with dogecoin and I wouldn't be surprised if it happened with Coinye.

Weekly PSA: [I]Don't fucking mine coinye you idiots[/I]
Mined coinye first day, got $40 out of it, from 300,000 coinyes. Community on there really sucks though, compared to the fun environment around doge

Nothing bad could come of it. Why are you adamantly against it? You're acting like you don't want anyone else to mine them because you can't get anything out if it.
It just legitimises stupid shit like this
