This could get very interesting, especially for POS ICOs, premines, promises to deliver a cryptocurrency before it even exists, representations regarding a non existent Silk Road clone for two years ...

Concerned that blockchain bloat will lead to centralization? Storing less than 4 GB of data once required the budget of a superpower and a warehouse full of punched cards. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/IBM_card_storage.NARA.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card

Why should they NOT launch an investigation? GAW has been shady since the beginning, not to mention the outright lie about their 'company connections' that was exposed as non-existent before paycoin barely began.
