Title: Maybe a problem with Ron Paul Coin
Post by: 2bfree on January 11, 2014, 03:29:24 AM
First let me premise this with the fact that I campaigned for Ron Paul and I never voted in my life and was going to never vote in my life till I met Ron Paul which is like 1 in 1000 gave me hope in liberty again so I registered republican just so I can vote for him and I did. 

But when I saw this coin I started thinking if I was Ron Paul how would I fee about having my name on a coin, people hiring a hitman with Ron Paul coin or people buying some despicable things with it then the "main stream" liberty hating media smearing his name with it.

In any case it might be a problem, I haven't had much time to think about it but my first though it of concern for our dear ex congressman and hope for liberty now on a crypto currency.

PS: Has anyone tried to ask him how he feels about it? I googled it but don't see anything where he has a comment.

PSS: This also could be something to worry about other good people how would you feel if someone started a YouCoin and didn't ask you? I know I might have a problem. Just think about it for a minute.

Looking forward to thoughts because if Ron Paul is ok with it, I think this will be my #1 alt coin!

He was talking about it on MSNBC the other day.  He said that he didn't know much about cryptocurrency, but he seemed to be flattered that people made a coin after him.
