I've spent the last few days significantly reducing my position in DRK due to this statement by Evan:
As any of you in the USA smart enough to follow financial laws know, the IRS and SEC have made some rather interesting rulings regarding cryptocurrency. While I am no attorney (but make the habit of occasionally talking to one) I suspect there is going to be some... "Drama" in Darkcoin's future.
I have been making posts about the important need for, "Business Acumen" in the Darkcoin ranks. Before I buy back into Darkcoin in size, I now have the requirement that a very well-seasoned business executive that a venture capitalist would love be brought onto the Darkcoin team to make and handle business decisions. Note, this kind of person is going to likely require a large, vesting offering of Darkcoin for the trouble.
You are making this "drama" up from your ass As any of you in the USA smart enough to follow financial laws know, the IRS and SEC have made some rather interesting rulings regarding cryptocurrency.

Please, go back to your farm
I wish that was true. Let's look at the IRS's guidance on virtual currency, shall we? http://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/IRS-Virtual-Currency-Guidance
How can Evan own something that is treated as property when I own billions of it as well? And if he doesn't really own it, how can he make a legal challenge that requires his ownership?
Maybe he can. Maybe Darkcoin has a team of amazing attorneys that understand cryptocurrency. All I know, is those 568 shares of Google I own don't allow me to make trademark claims on behalf of Google.
I SUSPECT that whoever owns 50.000000001% of Dashcoin is going to own the Dash financial trademark. But even then, it could be an ugly fight. Or maybe not. It's going to be interesting! Or maybe not. Heh.
