The network hashrate has dropped from 5gh/s from the beginning, as well as the difficulty has crumbled.

Dev's dumped their COYE and services now too.

So yea, I would say this is blowing up. But in a different manner.

decentralised exchanges needed.

If one retarded asswipe celeb's greedy little manager can put a stop to a currency, just think what a group of intelligent individuals with some real power could do.

The legal issues attached to this only bring bad attention, and legal liability to the community at large, boycott its use and users.

1.53Ghash/s NETWORK divided by ~800Khash/s per R9 290 (roughly) = A measly ~1900 video cards mining Coiyne right now.

I understand the original developers sucked ass but they made this monster that is gaining ridiculous attention in the media by itself. The original devs are gone now and a new team is taking over to continue the coin.

Just take a moment to see the national attention it is getting:

http://www.tmz.com/2014/01/14/kanye-west-sues-coinye-west-currency-lawsuit/

IT'S ON FUCKING TMZ.

All of this and the coiyne is being kept alive by a few hundred miners.

Doesn't that seem a little underwhelming?

If anyone was sitting on the sidelines waiting to get involved with developing a coin, this is a golden opportunity. Unless you think Kayne will sue you to oblivion. Will a celeb honestly be able to stop a coin easier than a government can?




No, a celebrity won't be able to stop a coin, BUT their legal team can stop exchanges and merchants from interacting with those coins.  Why would I want to put a coin on my exchange when I will be sued? Why deal with those headaches when there's 70 other coins I can entertain without the risk of a lawsuit?

bullshit lol look at piratebay they got 100000000x times more legal problems than coinye  Cheesy Cheesy It all depends on in what country the exchange is located,who runs it etc ....
