agreed. bash it over the head with a shovel. then dig a hole with the shovel and bury it.
I think it is irrelevant to know if it is the same team or not. If one IPO succeed (I don't mean the coin... who cares about the coin ? not dev... why would he actually, he got 300BTC in advance for launching the coin ), then there will be several others trying to do the exact same "scam" to get their piece of the
cake (or rather a whole new cake...).
What should not be tolerated actually is Bittrex (or any other exchange for that matter) listing any of these crap coins... and serving as escrow (just in case a stupid dev run away before launching is coingen ? because actually the only thing he has to do is to launch the coin, not to insure its success...)
