Well at least someone has noticed your endevour, right? If they would rather 51% you instead of make some coins then its there loss.

hmmm not getting any blocks bud. Difficulty too low?

+1 for the name if nothing else

The name is a little risky lol

I think what is happening now is some very big miners are on the scene, maybe trying a 51% or something so nobody else can get a block, I have had a few though.

This chain will not be restarted though and I will be adding checkpoints but this is a coin to learn from to make my main one in the future better.

Yeah the Beretta 92FS very nice pistol (I fired it when in the Army) used a lot by Riggs in Lethal Weapon.

The more Crimecoin's you have then I guess the closer you get to the likes of Scarface maybe? :-)

Hi everyone,

I am pleased to announce Crimecoin - The Coin developed to be Crime and Black Market Resistant.

The aim of this project is to address the current major issue with Crypto-Currencies for their increasing use for illegal activities. You might now be thinking how would this work and is the name of this coin counter productive towards the projects aim but sometimes the more simple the solution, the higher the chances of it working.

This is just my opinion but I do not believe that many users would actually use a dedicated "Anon" Crypto-Currency as that is going to be the first in a list of digital currencies global authorities will be monitoring, just like what has been happening with the Tor network.

What makes things even more interesting is that the Tor network is being indirectly "promoted" by many third parties as a secure and anonymous "darknet" which I believe is not the case but in fact the Tor network is monitored actively by governments probably using the Terrorist Act to get around any red tape.

I wonder why the .i2p network hardly gains any official publicly, even though it is very effective at keeping your anonymity providing you configure everything correctly and use a secure browsing policy; I imagine is is partly down to the fact that .i2p does have a steeper learning curve than Tor which is available nicely packaged with Firefox (Where are the Action Lawsuits?) but is also given a bad reputation for a long list of issues even though many of these people are heavy .i2p users and as I have used .i2p many times to see how the project is progressing, I can say that it is although not perfect (Nothing is) it is far from deserving the reputation is has in certain community groups.

With the above in mind is seems that with Reverse Psychology and a small amount of targeted marketing, a Crypto-Currency can be less likely to be used for illegal activities but can also use a basic Wallet Client with no extra "Anonymous" functionality but only some custom in client icons that any user trying to use it for illegal activities would not want anyone else to see.

No "Panic" boss button to be found here :-)
