Sorry, but as of now, this sounds really sketchy. You should advise the dev that there are few countries in the world that will protect him against a civil suit from an American court.


Your concerns are legitimate. Unfortunately, I don't have emails from the foundation or other proof, I'm just going off what the dev has said.

I'm not trying to convince anyone that Murraycoin is the ultimate bestest altcoin ever and you need to go out and buy it all up, I was mostly just trying to get people involved, maybe some of whom hadn't even heard of it yet. A few people seem pretty pumped about MileyCoin, maybe they'd like to get into MRY? I'll send some Murraycoin to anyone who has anything of value to contribute to the cause, be it a YouTube video, some artwork, a simple video game integrating Murraycoin, etc.
If they're concerned about Murraycoin's future, they can just convert their bounties into BTC via Cryptsy.

Could you please elaborate on this, specifically on what you mean by "yet"?


"Yet" means he might endorse the coin at some point, or he might not. The lead dev of Murraycoin has stayed in contact with the Murray Bros Foundation since Murraycoin's inception, and apparently they were in "sounds interesting, we'll think about it" mode but decided not to give the official endorsement at the time (around March, when they had the annual charity golf tournament). The idea is, however, that if Murraycoin becomes valuable and becomes sustainable on its own, the foundation stands to make a decent amount of money and it would be very plausible that Bill would endorse it and thus sending Murraycoin's value even higher.

If you have time, read through the pages of the Murraycoin announcement thread, the dev doesn't a pretty good job of explaining the situation at various points on the timeline since its release.

But anyway... think about those Bill Murray shirts & stickers that The Chive sells. They sell like hot cakes, I see them everywhere... Bill doesn't "officially endorse" The Chive but they have permission to use his face without paying him for it. However, The Chive is one of the sponsors of the annual golf tournament (i.e. they give money to the Murray Bros Foundation), so it's a mutually beneficial thing going on between the two.

(i) TheChive was approached asked to make those t-shirts. They have a contract.

(ii) Could you post the email from the Bill Murray Foundation here? If the content is as you say, you will see an immediate price spike.

(iii) Personality rights is no laughing matter. Just because Murray hasn't filed a suit against the dev, don't assume he won't. For all we know, he doesn't even know of Murraycoin's existence. After all, Murray is known to be a recluse. At one time, his agent mentioned that Murray lost out on a few roles because he could not be reached. Keep in mind that the Coinye dev was boastful during the early days, but when the legal letter came, he quickly disappeared.

(iv) If the Murray Foundation is interested to make money from crypto, what is stopping them from hiring a dev for a few thousand dollars and keeping all the premine to themselves, instead of hoping that some anonymous dev will donate something to the Foundation? Consenting to such an arrangement would also make the Foundation liable to any misrepresentation or wrongdoing on the part of the developer. I hardly think Bill Murray would be open to all of this.

Sorry, but as of now, this sounds really sketchy. You should advise the dev that there are few countries in the world that will protect him against a civil suit from an American court.

Bill Murray and the Murray Bros Foundation have not officially endorsed Murraycoin yet, but that's a very big yet. Murraycoin was given the green light as far as being its own separate entity, so it's not like there will be any Coinye-esque lawsuits.


Could you please elaborate on this, specifically on what you mean by "yet"?

If Bill Murray, the star of iconic flicks such as Lost In Translation, Ghostbusters, Caddyshack, GroundHog Day and many more, endorses this coin in any form, shape or manner, the marketcap will zoom pass all other coins except Bitcoin.
The dev doesn't even need to do any marketing - businesses will run to him.
That's how influential Murray is.

If I'm being honest here, I would say this is all BS. But I am prepared to be proven wrong.

This is not well known in America, but Bill Murray was paid $2 million to promote Bitcoin in Japan.

Oh wow. I don't know if you're joking or not, but either way... awesome!  Cool

Nice thread.  In the near future, all these folks can't say you didn't give them a good heads up before Murraycoin starts making waves.  People just don't realize what it takes behind the scenes to have a coin "make it" and with this dev and his solid track record plus ground & pound work he's currently doing, MRY is bound to take off.  In addition to your comments, the Bill Murray+Foundation connection+future mainstream appeal (when released) will only add to its worth.....maybe not today or tomorrow, but eventually.  Patience (with certain coins) will only benefit those holding them.  I myself have stocked up nicely on murraycoin as it's just a matter of time.

Patience is a virtue whose block reward is reducing rapidly! Wink

and a pump (when the time is right) won't hurt either Wink

This is not real benefit. Just marketing hype.

Well, judging by your screen name, you would be biased against asic-resistant algorithms.  Grin

You still see Doge as successful?  I see it as imploding given the price over the past few months.

Having a $12 million market cap is pretty successful; just because it won't be seeing any more big returns in the future doesn't make it unsuccessful. And really, none of the altcoins have experienced a level of popularity that is sustainable.

I mentioned in a different thread but I'll say it again here: I honestly think Murraycoin will be a big hit, but I'm trying to get the crypto community involved before it blows up so that they can guide the influx of newbies that will arrive on the scene.

I think I bumped into this coin quite a long time ago.Back at the time there were also this kind of statements-Murraycoin will be huge,etc.I don't think anything has changed since that and I assume that the coin won't experience a big rise.

The Murraycoin team ran out of funding until just recently, that's the main reason it has been in limbo. Again, I'm trying to grow the Murraycoin community, not pump the coin (the mainstream media will do that at some point in the near future).

What unique feature is the coin offering? That is, why should investor give up bitcoin in exchange for Murraycoin ?

Scrypt-N alg (not unique but notable) and, again, Bill Ghostbustin'-ass Murray!
Unlike Biebercoin or Coinye, Murraycoin actually has permission to exist. And unlike with Maxcoin, people outside of the crypto/finance world actually know who Bill Murray is.

Sleeping, yes.  Giant, no.

We'll see. Nobody expected Dogecoin to blow up either.
