MazaCoin is a cryptocurrency that tried to bring together two very different communities: cryptocurrency maximalists and a North American indigenous tribe looking to assert its sovereignty. The project was declared all but dead in March 2014. The coin failed to take off off any exchanges, and the coin is not listed on any exchanges. The creator of the coin, Payu Harris, claimed it was the national currency of the Lakota Nation of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. He claimed it would eliminate the State/Federal ability to freeze [tribal community] accounts and tamper with lawful tax revenues.
