Statement from psychiccat (suspected admin)

https://www.reddit.com/r/TradeRouteDNM/comments/76sd88/a_message_from_psychiccat/

r/TradeRouteDNM a message from PsychicCat u/psychiccat1 https://gist.github.com/PsychicCat/e40a9eefa767ee3a7b0b5ebe3ee17a41

It came to my attention that my name was posted in this subreddit and another onion url in relation to being involved with this site. These allegations are unfounded and without proof.

Some people have emailed me and contacted my family members directly to indicate that I am in danger, so I am posting here with the intent to address this issue directly.

I am a software developer and I have been involved with the Monero community as an enthusiast and occasional contributor since 2015.

During this time I have published several open source libraries under the MIT license that are publicly available on Github, NPM, and Packagist, namely code libraries that interface with the Monero wallet over JSON-RPC written in Node.js and PHP. You can see them here:

https://github.com/PsychicCat/monero-nodejs

https://github.com/PsychicCat/monero-php

I have never been involved with Trade Route nor had any communication with people involved with it. Anyone who states otherwise, please post proof.

I welcome anyone that knows me online or IRL to vouch for the nature of my character. I would like to get back to my life as soon as possible without being concerned for my well being or that of my family.

Thank you.

OP: We know you are innocent. These idiots have been bamboozled by the scammers themselves. In the name of this community, I apologize for the distress that was brought to you and your family. I would suggest to take a break from social media for a week.

Stupid people dragging innocents through this shit.

Read this before launching such serious accusations:

Bottom line: there was no doxx, no hacker, no "security leaks". It was pure exit scam with a "clever" plan B. That "hackz0r" is most probably part of the TR team. And yes, TR was actively phishing its own users. Stupid assholes, think about you actions before involving normal people in this.

As if TR has not fucked up enough people, I feel bad for this poor bastard.

Ugh, fucking idiots with their pitchforks not doing their research. It might not be a bad idea to tell the cops what happened and have them have your house at least on a frequent rotation, you haven't broken any laws so why not, right? There's nothing illegal about being an open source programmer even if someone might have used that code for "nefarious" intentions.

Threats, especially to the innocent, aren't cool.

edit: Or I should say framed you with it

why do people want to attack admins anyways? I could see why you don't want the cops at your door but I don't know why people would care
