DISCLAMER & CITATIONS: J. R. R. Tolken is dead, but he was the one who wrote LOTR so he gets his credit. Darken Rahl is my idea. Sauron's Rings is a real cryptocurrency talked about on the coin forum. This writing is protected under Fair Use. Don't like it? TOO BAD, IT'S THE LAW!
TECHNOMANCER ENCRYPTED DATA DECODED: KHAZAD-128-CBC
Recently 6r33nl34f has discovered an unusual cryptocurrency on SourceForge Middle Earth known as Sauron's Rings. This got the Guild of Technomancers attention because we have not seen or heard of anyone on Middle Earth working on a cryptocurrency. I asked some of my friends about them but none of them are willing to go the official site. They say it is evil.

From what it says on the project site it is a Middle Earth exclusive cryptocurrency. The developer's name is smeagol. We have not been able to trace this person's location or obtain any of his dox. The dev seems to be working off the grid and anonymously. The project was uploaded to the site from an I2P Tunnel so that is why we are not able to track him. He does have an eepsite called smeagolslair.i2p but it is written entirely in Black Speech. This is probably why my friends saw it as evil.
Most of the people who seem to visiting his site are evil due to the fact that he constantly talks about are evil. Stuff like torture and the like.
End of line.
