I'm sure these legal threats will come to nothing or have no merit. Anyone who can seemingly afford a lawyer seems to send them for anything they don't like thesedays.



So you are giving him a reason to point at us and yell, "Look everybody, they are antisemitic neo-Nazis on bitcointalk.org!"

Delete that shit right now or I'll get somebody else to delete it for you.

His handle is dicksausage. Do you think he cares? Just sayin'

lol, was just about to say why would you take anyone called dicksausage seriously? Seems this thread has been invaded with alt coin trolls. Wish they'd stay in their cage.
My name is Richard Sausage. Are you making fun of me?

Anarchy is not chaos.

I think perhaps the scale needs to be considered... Gox did a whale of a job and got away with it. Paycoin is small potatoes by comparison.

Garza has been butthurt since his beginnings on bitcointalk.  That is why he went off to play in his own sandbox at trashtalk.org.  But the butthurt is strong and and he is still jealous of the big by's sandbox so he threatens lawsuits like a spoiled brat.

Asked his opinion of GAW's founder Josh Garza and Paycoin itself, Theymos said:

From what I've read, GAW Miners used to be a decent hardware company. However:

Paycoin is really stupid.

Cloud mining in general is a very dangerous field to invest in. (As if mining wasn't dangerous enough…)
Jeff Garza and his lawyers keep sending me legal threats to try to get me to remove things from /r/Bitcoin and bitcointalk.org, which is extremely suspicious and annoying.
I recommend avoiding them as much as possible.

This is crazy. Why is Theymos not allowed to share his personal opinion ?

I believe Theymos said what the majority of us think. Paycoin is really stupid and Cloud mining == losing money.

Paycoin is just another (alt) scamcoin.

Sue me Garza, spammer!

Crazy. Now is the time to change something. We have to keep the Bitcoin world clean from scammers. Otherwise it will never reach the mainstream.

I totally disagree, and for evidence present the US dollar.

Scamming and the mainstream are so intertwined that I don't think that either could exist without the other.

Hello Cryptocurrency Community,
ShapeShift.io added support for Paycoin (XPY) a couple weeks ago, upon the request of our users. The coin was quite popular (both for buyers and sellers). The software itself worked as advertised, so we were happy to integrate it.
In general, ShapeShift is “coin agnostic” - we have no idea which digital assets will endure for the long term. If the market is excited about a certain asset, we work to integrate it into our platform, and so we did with Paycoin. We do not “endorse” any coins, nor do we heavily vet the prospects of any asset before we integrate it. We simply listen to the marketplace – unfortunately the marketplace can be a confusing and cacophonous arena.
For the last few days there has been intense scrutiny over Paycoin and its creator, Josh Garza and GAW, with many calling the coin an outright scam.
While we understand that a community which advocates a free and open market needs to be diligent about self-policing, scam accusations are made routinely, often without actual proof or even evidence. People should generally be a little more careful with the word, but we understand why the crypto community reacts so strongly against perceived scams.
And indeed, there are scams out there, and we must all be diligent in building an honest, professional, and productive ecosystem. Looking out for each other is good business.
We've looked further into Paycoin, and while there are some criticisms that are superfluous (a coin being “premined” does not necessarily make it a scam, for example), there is one particular issue that we cannot ignore. Josh Garza and the Paycoin admins made a very clear promise – a guarantee – which is that when Paybase opened (a Paycoin marketplace), that Paycoins would be bought there for $20 each. That was a factual promise, made by the creator of the coin.
Anyone who studies markets should know that guaranteeing the price of anything is a fool's errand. But indeed, if Garza had his alleged $100m in capital he could perhaps back the value of Paycoin at $20 per and actually make good on the promise. It's unlikely, but possible.
And yet here's what happened: not only did Garza not fulfill his promise to back the value of Paycoin at $20 per coin, but himself and his administrators seem to be actively re-writing history, scrubbing their forum of any mention of that promise. This moves it from fool's errand to the realm of deception.
The coin now sits around $5, and Garza is claiming he never promised $20. We believe this satisfies a high threshold of evidence as fraud, and so we have decided to remove Paycoin from www.ShapeShift.io
The market has spoken. We will be at the Miami Conference if anyone would like to discuss this issue further with us.
