NWO no need to blame Boxman90, even what he said is true, it is 1200 blocks only. I am still mining PWC. When CNC launched, 2000+ blocks premined, so what? CNC still goes to btw-e.com in 6 days. lol, 1200 blocks sounds like nothing to me. Now about 13000 blocks mined. Grin

Exactly. Let the haters rot and miss out on PowerCoin's success.

To be a criminal you actually need to perform a crime. He did not perform one if I'm reading your post correctly.

Code:

Whoever, under a threat of informing, or as a consideration for not informing ... 
demands or receives any money or other valuable thing, shall be fined ... 
or imprisoned not more than one year, or both. 18 USC paragraph 873 -

It works better if you don't summarize...

Quote

Whoever, under a threat of informing, or as a consideration for not informing, against any violation
of any law of the United States

So, the only way Boxman90 could have committed a crime would be if NWO committed a crime. Pre-mining a digital currency isn't a crime, so this does not apply.

I am not sure which jurisdiction the people involved in this saga are living in. In general, my understanding is that there is one and only one legal threat: "If you do not pay, I will sue you."

If the lawsuit is unrelated, it can still be considered "abuse of process," but other than that, it is a perfectly legitimate tool to coerce people into compliance with the law.

Threatening to publish something about someone or someone's work if the person refuses to pay (or do something) does strike me as a form extortion. At least it would likely be viewed as such under the Criminal Code of Canada (s. 346).

Now as for the coin itself, if it was pre-mined, and the creator represented to the public to the contrary, then the creator may also be committing some sort of fraud.

But two wrongs do not make a right: If Boxman90 had a reason to believe that NWO was involved in wrongdoing, then he had every right to publish it, because arguably it was in the public interest. But he did not have the right to use it to demand payment from NWO.

Are you retarded? PWC isn't even considered money by any government. Enough with this nonsense.

Destroying a coin isn't a crime. If that was the case, Luke-Jr would be getting fucked in the ass we speak. Also, making a thread like this isn't gonna make anyone save you. You just ruined your coin.

The big picture still doesn't make sense to you, does it?

Wait I thought the OP stated his coin wasn't pre mined in the original announcement. So was he lying ?

Apparently he feels if the attention is shifted towards boxman90 it will divert attention.

A WARNING TO ALL CRYPTOCOIN OWNERS

Boxman90 messaged me yesterday saying he would destroy my coin unless I pay him PWC (Ironic I know). Obviously I refused as this IS illegal, so he has gone on a bias hate campaign (butthurt?) only against PowerCoin (failing to mention nearly EVERY coin has had some level of premine/ instamine)

The relatively small amount which was premined went into development of the coin, website, wiki, bounties etc. Any person with common sense knows, labour is NOT free. I assume this is why there is such a big problem with premines and instamines is because I quickly discovered the costs of a new coin. Costs had to be covered. Compared to the total number of coins, this is nothing!

If you have any information on this individual or are a victim of his extortion/ attempted fraud. Please message me IMMEDIATELY!

Just hire a lawyer and pay him in powercoins lol.... Cheesy

My father is a lawyer Cheesy

And? I have 4 in my family. Your coin is junk along with your accusations. If you even have the balls to pursue legal recourse, my family would happily represent Boxman90 free of charge.

Good luck.

Kids. They think they're so cool
