Killed? I thought that it was already dead?

To be fair, that project was always going to get into legal troubles when it associated itself with Kanye.

First, it was already dead from the beginning. Second, the rapper probably did not understand the concept and did not want anything so weird to be associated with his name. :-)

Quote
Rapper Kanye West has managed to kill an altcoin named in his honour, six months after it was launched by a team of developers.

Called Coinye West, the altcoin was subsequently renamed Coinye in an attempt to continue its business activities even in the face of legal pressure.

The developers envisioned Coinye as a fun and simple altcoin for the hip-hop community, and even tweeted news about its development to the rapper in the hopes he would embrace the concept.
