So maybe if nothing else they could send the forum itself a cease and desist for aiding and abetting "conspiracy to violate a Trademark" or some such.
The forum is operate anon too.

It is a dot org domain, thus well within U.S. ability to shut down / seize.

I think this has gone on long enough.  I'm sending this over to Visa's legal department, see what they think about this nonsense. And for "VisaCoin"...

You're such a tool.  You sent this forum thread to Visa's legal department? Great job. "This has gone on long enough" What, two weeks? If it becomes an issue and needs to be changed it will be a quick and easy fix. I don't know why everyone is breaking a sweat over the name. Relax. Side note: jesus already at nearly 80 BTC for the donation fund, what the hell happened yesterday? Awesome stuff.

On the contrary,  The OP clearly doesn't understand copyright/trademarks, and isn't taking this seriously.  It's better this gets shutdown/name changed sooner rather than later, before even more people part with their hard earned BTC.   Would you rather invest dozens or hundreds of bitcoins and/or hours of mining/electricity into a project that just gets shut down later?

Sooner is better than later good sir.

Who the fck cares about US trademarks? The OP certainly not.

Who would Visa want to file a lawsuit against? There is nobody to reach.

... this project itself is a different story

Visa is trademarked in most countries in the world on the just the US, read their terms.

They also have a history of aggressively crushing anyone that conflicts with their trademark

I think this is a concern that the dev should address here if this is to be a long term project

You sure are right, but as you can see there is not even a reply. The unknown dev resides in cryptoanarchy and is not going to care about trademarks, you see.

what you did not think about, however, was how VISA will come after any forums sites that "harbor" threads about visacoin or VSC.  Thus forcing bitcointalk and other sites to censor threads on VSC.

Can rename it to Vsiacoin.

Why can't Visacoin be Vscoin or VSC we all know it's still visa coin.

...Really?
"Visa is Visa, vsc is vsc"... Worst name choice ever.
Keep vsc if you wish, but find another name that visa... Seriously.

I will not call it a scam, 'seems so legit~
But one of these days 'such kind of start will be one. Be careful people.

We will destroy all of the BTC to generate an equal VSC in btc block chain
Then why the hell didn't you implement proof of burn / destruction of the coin?
I'm waiting for such an innovation.
Fair start, no mining, almost scam-proof.
I'd really enjoy to send some coin to a weird address to destroy my coin.


Update.2013.12.29
We also plan to shorten the deadline of IPO,and increase rewards to early donors
Not a fucking week has pass and you already change the deadline?
For fuck's sake people, learn to assume your talk.

That's exactly why I "hate" Nextcoin.
They announce a month a half, and then suddently decise to stop it after 2 weeks for no honest apparent reason, nor any explication (that I succed to find).
Making the original wealth distribution BAD on purpose is a HUGE turn off to me.
That's why I didn't bought a single NXT even at 300 satoshi.
Now 'almost 8000 satoshi, 'well greed and delusion is amongst human...
A pity I miss a x26 train.
At least I stay true to myself. No regret.
(gonna hurt many if 10 early guy sell everything in january... a needed lesson?)


Edit:
Arf, fuck it.
After this time consuming text that nobody will care about, I was in the mind to lose 50$.
But the address already got over 50 income.
Thank you for a such bad appearance, wow! You save me money.
Best of luck to the fools.
