You should toss them an e-mail with some more information, sounds like you just ran into a couple of uninformed admins.

My thepiratebay.org account was deleted and only a single torrent was affiliated with it, added yesterday or the day before.
The torrent was in relation to bitcoin and not illegal in any way.

Gah, it really fucking sucks when people in charge of or responsible for organizations, corporations, etc are incompetent. =/
I'm quite fuckingly disappointed in The Pirate Bay for this.  

The only tag I applied to the torrent was 'bitcoin.'

I see at http://thepiratebay.org/tag/bitcoin that there are still other torrents with the 'bitcoin' tag and therefore reference of bitcoin being ponzi scheme to justify banning of my account seems to be not quite accurate.
