I speak as the Steward and Acting First Minister of Forvik.
We had no knowledge of this Forvikcoin until we were contacted by a third party asking if we wanted to bring it to an exchange. We have no knowledge of this developer and have had no contact with him (or her), despite what he asserts here. He is using material from our website without our permission. We have no means of contact except though this forum.
If he had approached us first, we may have been amenable to his suggestions, but this is not the right way to conduct business.
Forvikcoin does not have the support of the Sovereign State of Forvik. We request that all development stop, that all reference to Forvik be terminated and that our copyright material is removed from all websites mentioning the name Forvik, or Forvikcoin.
Stuart Hill, Acting First Minister, sovereign without the states of Scotland or the United Kingdom.

Open Letter to the Steward and Acting First Minister of Forvik.
Dear Mr Stuart Hill,
Firstly, we apologies for any confusion and misunderstanding in regards to our creation of Forvikcoin.
We created Forvikcoin with the best interest of helping Forvik and its citizens.
We have attempted to contact you via the information on your website on several occasions and did actually make email contact with danny @ forvik.com who presented no objections whatsoever.
Please understand that Forvikcoin is based on free and open source software- We are not a 'business' in any shape or form and we are not looking to profit directly from this in any way.
We will respect your requests and remove all images from the original post as you have requested, aside from the Forvik Flag, as it is presumably OK to wave that freely?
We hope that you may reconsider your position regarding Forvikcoin.
Lastly, we feel that cryptocurrency is an excellent way to promote Forvik both on the internet and to the wider world. Cryptocurrency is "honest money" and helps to preserve individual freedom of speech and the right to privacy- amongst other important factors for consideration with any 'true' democracy.
Kind regards,
The Forvikcoin Team
