I have no choice but to step down as a dev and leave the Torcoin project. I am sorry guys but I cannot be legally responsible for this coin or have my name behind it anymore..This is out of respect to the Tor Project. Im not going to be held responsible for this coins name not being changed, when I was asked to do so. So I am removing my Github and I am out.

If you guys care about me redeeming my name or want to follow a project that will not have any conflicts, keep your eyes open, because I will be announcing a new coin here soon! Smiley

I totally understand if there is hate towards me, but I am getting it from both ends right now, Tor Project wants this project abolished, the guy behind it essentially let me go just now, and I just can't be apart of it.

thetorcoin is now solely responsible for this project, I have no affiliation whatsoever.


L-O-FUCKING-L.  What a surprise.  Looks for the first excuse he can to dip out and dump everything he has, and oh!...he has a new coin that will be coming out soon, so he can do it AGAIN.  PULL YOUR BUY ORDERS EVERYONE.


This guy should be banned from BCT, he is the lowest form of scum.  Look at his Twitter photo, he looks like he sits in his mom's basement all day taking bong hits and eating Lays potato chips.  

Im not dumping the coins I have, I am simply leaving this project, the github is already deleted. I won't dump on the market to hurt you guys. I still want to redeem my name here.

This project is using the Tor Project's name which is trademarked like stated early on, they have confirmed with me that they do not want this project using that name, since the owner is refusing to change it and won't work with me on it, I am no longer with this project, Im done.

Sorry that you are going Carsen. I will follow you on social media.

Good luck for the future TorCoin I really do hope it works out well for everyone

panic selling means a good buying opportunity for the smart money :-)

The TOR Project literally has no influence over TorCoin whatsoever. That is the whole point of decentralization

not one single thing will change with TorCoin!

I doubt he's dumping his coins, the coin is utterly undervalued right now.

And as you see from my wallets, I haven't sold a single TOR

He's just afraid of getting sued, so he doesn't want to be associated with the coin anymore.

Fair enough.

I could care less about getting sued. If they knew who I was, they would not even bother trying lol

I am totally 100% lawsuit bulletproof.  And I don't give a fuck.

I'm here for the longterm viability of TORCOIN

PERIOD!

I'm incredibly passionate about this coin and project!

Need a new dev who shares the same enthusiasm and who doesn't care about a few C&D letters ..

I just changed the logo, due to the recent post from the Tor Project: https://twitter.com/torproject/status/855882107234770944

https://github.com/carsenk/torcoin/commit/e1119f1170c3b3deede5bd2ea38445d716829297

If we need to change the name as well and they are not okay with us keeping Torcoin after removing their icon, a rebranding will occur, which we will need some solid ideas for names guys. Waiting to hear back from them, so far nothing major though, I changed the logo so that in good faith that they will maybe allow us to keep the name.

I have tried to see what my partner says about this and if he will update the site etc, currently awaiting a reply back.


Isn't TOR open source as well?

Keep the onion. Use a different onion logo if needed. Your coin is operating over TOR.  

Also report the post to the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation): https://www.eff.org

In the spirit of Internet freedom the TOR project should be supporting YOU!

Also, remind the people over at the TOR project that all of the human rights activists they are trying to keep alive in repressive countries may actually need a a virtual currency that operates over TOR in order to survive!

Don't worry!

Carsen helped write the code, but he's not the man behind TorCoin - as I said all along!

TorCoin is NEVER GOING TO CHANGE ITS NAME, PERIOD.

Or its logo.

Or anything else!

Looking for a new dev now with thick skin. I'll stake the dev with 25k TOR.

I'd like to get a dev who has a good rep and is approved by folks here ... open to suggestions!

Okay so The Tor Project is not on board, just got an email back from the Executive Director. We will be changing the name and ticker.

I will be rolling out an update this weekend or as late as Monday to the name change. So far Paradox (PDX) is the winner.

hey guys,

Carsen is gone from TorCoin (still has his 160k TOR though of course)

The Executive Director of the TOR Project can kiss my ass.

The name stays, no matter what.

I been around the block more than a few times, and they can send me as many C&D notices as they want.  The name stays, period.

TorCoin is not going anywhere, trust me on that!

Why is this advertised so much even on google, who pays for the adverts?
I would really think the money to be paid for that advertising campaign would be from the team and from the premine tor coins. I think he will not soon be making bounties.

Its coming from the guy that paid me to make Torcoin, he is the one funding the advertising and the bounties. He will have to stop those advertisements soon, I don't believe he is around right now, but I can no longer continue developing "Torcoin" as per The Tor Project stating that we cannot use the name, it will be rebranded to the name that gets voted on enough here.

I am paying for the advertising!

And I am paying out of my own pocket in BTC, not cashing out any TOR!

hey folks,

Some of you will be happy to know that Carsen is stepping down as lead developer - which means TorCoin is looking for a new dev to take this coin to the next level!

I have some people in mind already, but I'm also willing to hire a Dev that is recommended and approved by Bitcointalk users to avoid all the trollish comments in the future about the dev.

In other words, who do you guys WANT to be lead dev for this coin? I am all ears.

I will stake the new dev with 25k TOR but they have to be absolutely 100% qualified for the project.

Also, note that Carsen does still own 160k TOR from the initial mine but he is not likely to sell it anytime soon, and even if he does sell it, just boosts the market cap of the coin anyway - which is a good thing.

As you can see from my wallet, I still have not sold a single TOR!

So, I am taking all suggestions for a new dev and new features for the coin!

Big things ahead folks!

UnionCoin was a cryptocurrency of 2013.
However I do not know the American laws but Tor Coin would not be another brand, of course without the visual identity of the onion.
