John Mcafee released a crytpo which was made public two days after his death. He believed he was going to be killed, and his $WHACKD token might be part of his deadman's switch. Go to whosgettingwackd.com for more.

Looks like there's two, one John made (ERC-20) based on Ethereum, and another on the Binance Blockchain, BEP-20, that is simply a memorial made by a rando. So don't get the wrong one.
Edit: "Bitcoin.com News traversed upon three phony whackd tokens issued on ETH and BSC and four scam ads published by anons on Reddit"

At best, this is an Ethereum surveillance coin.
The opposite of what he valued in life.
If you respected McAfee's individual liberty focused philosophical arguments, then you wouldn't want this surveillance coin.

Mcafee made the coin himself

McAfee had his name associated with Ghost coin for awhile, but he abandoned it.
It was supposed to be as privacy coin, and it didn't deliver.
And he didn't build Ghost. He was a celebrity endorser.
And you're claiming he'd make an Ethereum surveillance coin from prison???
$WACKED was a tattooed declaration that he's never kill himself; he feared being suicided. He was.
$WACKED is a scam.

On what basis are you claiming it is a "surveillance coin"?
He didn't make it from prison, it was made in 2019.
He talks about it elsewhere https://imgur.com/a/FszbhuZ
I feel like you are just running your mouth with nonsense.

If it's not privacy by default, then it can be used for surveillance.
McAfee (a cybersecurity mogul and freedom advocate) publicly supported Monero for it's privacy and security. You aren't free, if you're under surveillance. There's no point to crypto if your transactions aren't private.
Some claim they "don't care" if the world can monitor their finances. They "have nothing to hide", but they don't know what the other is looking for.
"Ignorance isn't an excuse", which is a fraudulent moral argument. Ignorance will be used to prosecute them.

What would be acceptable to you?
