Title: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: Pangia on January 08, 2014, 02:23:08 AM If this pdf was already posted, please forgive me.
http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/20140107-WSJ-coinye.pdf page 2. 1. cease and desist from any and all use of the mark COINYE WEST and any versions of that mark including COINYE; And then there's this part. page 3. If you fail to comply with these demands, we will notify the cryptocurrency community at large of your infringing actions and pursue all legal remedies against any business that accepts the purported COINYE WEST currency. Specifically, Mr. West will pursue claims of contributory trademark infringement and contributory unfair competition, among others, against any entity that accepts or exchanges the COINYE WEST currency. So how will infrastructure be built for this coin when anyone who accepts it for services can be sued? My sincerest best wishes to the Devs of COINYE Coin. This will be a test for crypto.

Post by: buddynuno on January 08, 2014, 02:52:43 AM Well unfortunately for these lawyers they may try but they can't really win a lawsuit if COINYE DEV team want to go forth with the launch! You have the example of Keisercoin pre launch by other than Max Keiser. Enough said! I am not apart of COINYE DEV team or affiliated with them but a mere Cryptocurrency adopter and free market convicted supporter! I do think it is another Pump and Dump coin BUT nevertheless the acceptance or demise of this coin is enterily up and in the hands of the cryptoworld community! P.S. You can always quote the Pure coincidence disclaimer or Standard disclamer or any other disclamer out there!!! Good trading everyone Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers.

Imagine they came here because the coin is traded here? Unless this site is located overseas the legal system can come after this site or any site for that matter based in the US.

such controversy Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: chrissibel on January 08, 2014, 03:21:46 AM I say launch it anyways. Fuck his lawyers. I don't see how this in anyway is a copyright infringement.

I don't see how this in anyway is a copyright infringement. But businesses will have to agree that it's not and also be willing to deal with the legal ramifications associated with accepting the coin. Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers.

::) Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: deltree on January 08, 2014, 05:15:39 AM So in essence the US government should have sued 50 cent already? and his son 25 cent?
What if I am a business in Pakistan, the US attorney general can't do shit if I decide to open a business that accepts coinye here because at the moment we have nothing on the radar in legality in our country when it comes to crypto! Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: iGotSpots on January 08, 2014, 05:17:14 AM I'm going to release Kwest Coin pronounced Quest with the WEST symbol
Just for fun Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: tk808 on January 08, 2014, 05:17:58 AM 4) By doing this, Kanye West attorneys have 100x catapulted this alt coin into the media. Brilliant move dumb asses. Lastly, I have no dog in this fight but this is going to be interesting to see how it all plays out. ~BCX~ Bad press is good press, piss of kanye some more. This will make the crypto markets skyrocket Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: phazon307 on January 08, 2014, 05:18:54 AM I don't see a problem with the name but what I do see a problem with is using a thing from South Park Gay Fish which is Copyrighted. That is pretty much all they could ever get the DEV team for is copyright infringement and yes those laws are international.
Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: wontonforevuh on January 08, 2014, 05:22:34 AM just name it GayFishcoin [GFC] and see if he likes that better.
Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: mymenace on January 08, 2014, 05:30:54 AM In no way at all is this coin the same as Kanye West
I have had trade mark infringements on my logo and because it was a different colors and style the trademark regulators deemed it not to infringe copyright laws this is just personal experience coinye does not sound or even remotely look like kanye best of luck great publicity though Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: Dweeb on January 08, 2014, 05:48:17 AM If I buy a Kanye album with coinye is he really gonna say no to royalties? :p
Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: phazon307 on January 08, 2014, 05:59:57 AM I see your point on that but if it comes to copyright infringement they might be able to go after anyone who uses the images in posts. They could find out who some people are but they probably want to go after the big fish.
Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: cryptoirc on January 08, 2014, 06:04:51 AM Wow that's pretty crazy. Has the dev considered a 5% premine to bribe Kanye if they do pursue their law case?

Post by: digitalindustry on January 09, 2014, 08:54:17 AM For an educated man Brad D. Rose is truly an educated dumbass LOL 1) The CIA and the NSA can't stop crypto and good luck in trying to sue anyone. 2) If I were Mr. Rose or even Kanye West I would certainly think and then rethink about pissing off a global community of some of the best crypto and hacker types on the planet. I wouldn't be surprsied to see every facet of his life plastered all over 4chan and the internet in the near future. 3) Sue exchanges, really? I would love to see them sue someone like BTC-e which is an underground exchange located "somewhere" in Russia or for that matter any one of another half dozen places. 4) By doing this, Kanye West attorneys have 100x catapulted this alt coin into the media. Brilliant move dumb asses. Lastly, I have no dog in this fight but this is going to be interesting to see how it all plays out. ~BCX~ ^ What he said. Title: Re: COINYE - Letter from Kanye West's lawyers. Post by: phazon307 on January 12, 2014, 03:50:43 AM Guys. Something too good to be true is afoot.

Post by: o24 on January 12, 2014, 03:59:32 AM As long as the exchanges do not refer to it as Coinye, and only use the name COYE for the coin site-wide it will be safe from any type of legal problems. It is that simple.
