Whether someone is using one of the released keys is precisely what I have been trying to check this morning. There are only 8 candidates for this, and thus far the only one that is suspect is the address with ~148,000 XPY in it, #8 on the Rich List:

P.S: Personally I see no reason why people would not use these keys, if they work that is.
Any notions of honoring what any supposed investors paid for having a Hyperstaking wallet were officially tossed out the window with the seizure/theft/deceptions of such and then the changing of the rules by a handful of shady characters. I see nothing that gives the crooks who say they have exclusive right to use these hyperstaking keys this right at all.
Who ever these investors are who paid for these controllers were told that they were designed and coded by world class talent. Clearly that wasn't even remotely true. So, if they want to take it as a 'lesson learned' or a case for litigation is up to them. But, those keys have been compromised and there is no way to fix it. That is patently shoddy coding work that no one can deny.
Exactly. The Coin Coding and the Blockchain dictate the rules. The coding says that if you have a certain key and the minimum amount of coins in a wallet then it will work. People buying XPY have not signed any agreement saying that they will only allow a certain gang of crooks to use these hyperstaking keys. If the code allows it, then it is legitimate. Let the Mass Paycoin Hyperstaking commence!
You joke, but this was promoted as a solution for a global currency with the intention of usurping all forms of fiat. That was the promise promoted by the schemers and that was the basis for their thinking that $20 would be just a temporary floor until it sailed to $100/coin then on past the value of bitcoin itself. Instead, it's a poorly re-worked peercoin that stole the name of another failed altcoin that is currently (very possibly) being propped up by fake trade activity to keep the noobs who can't admit that they were taken pumping more fiat and BTC into their scam. (e.g. the crowdfunding doesn't even take XPY, it has to be donated in fiat or BTC!).... the fact that this whole scam is being run by grown adults and assisted by businesses like cryptsy is just getting to be really disgusting to me.
The fact that people who do care about the actual future of cryptocurrency are having to reverse engineer their shit to try to make heads or tails of it... when they claimed "transparency" is even more disgusting. Right now, for all we know, ISIS (the terrorist group ISIS) owns those other controllers and all those hundreds of thousands... millions? of dollars have been funneled into supporting their blood bath over there. And, this paycoin foundation and xpytrust don't give a flying fuck about it... think about that for a minute... Matlack got his family and friends to cash out their retirement funds to send the money to ISIS.... that is just how disgusting this who coin is getting. AND, until they prove otherwise, that is exactly what MIGHT be happening to every additional $ or BTC put into this coin.
As far as I can tell, Stuart Fraser of Cantor Fitzgerald and Homero Joshua Garza are just a front end terrorist funding organization. And, if any of the paycoin holders don't think ISIS can stand up Prime Controllers... they're mistaken. Yes, they're killing a shit ton of innocents in barbaric ways, but they also have more than enough technology and connectivity to be running these Prime Controllers. Cantor Fitzgerald, after the losses they took in 9/11, should be disgusted by what their Stuart Fraser has done and continues to do.
