It has recently been reported that alleged Mintpal scammers Ryan Kennedy and Chelsea Hopkins have been arrested by authorities in the United Kingdom.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

I'm happy that they caught some scammers for once and hope that they pay the time for doing the crime
Also hopefully for the coins to be recovered as well.

Good! One of our shareholders was effected personally in this scam, he will be pleased to hear the news.

I think this is really positive for the Bitcoin community to finally have fraudsters getting what they deserve.
