I could create a "100% insured" PPT myself: all I have to do is put face value at 0, and sell at 1...  :P

Also, nice try to make what you subtract seem negligible by expressing it in "per one" instead of percent  :D

This is the Public address and has just been funded.

This is a 1000 BTC Casascius gold coin.

This will be the insurance BTC for the bond.

IPO is going live.

Thanks:)

Can you tell us the private key of that address so that we can verify that the 1000 BTC is really there?

I am pretty clueless when it comes to GLBSE to please excuse my ignorance here...

If the 5.5% is paid from the 1 BTC face value, what is the actual weekly interest rate, considering the bonds cost 1.55 BTC?

Also, since only 1 BTC is insured, investors stand to lose .55 BTC from each bond they purchase. So they are not 100% insured as I would understand it.

Looking at it that way, I believe the interest calculation would be:
(0.055/1.55) = 3.548%
And the insurance calculation:
(1/1.55) = 64.516%
which is the amount insured of your initial payment.

I could be totally off though, so maybe someone else can jump in and explain the math better.

Bond face value is 1 BTC.
If BTCST defaults the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
If BTCST does not default the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
Does this mean if pirate shuts down his operation and returns everyone's money, you only buy back at 1BTC?

But goat, you have a lot of money. Your default risk is the same as investing directly into pirate, and you make almost 2x as much as insuring it. Why are you doing this, anyway? :) since it can't be due to the high profit margins.

With the IPO price he can finance the collateral and with the rest put into pirate he can just barely finance the interest, without touching his own money. By a hair. And only as long as pirate does not default.

Goat seems to be very very sure pirate will not default.

Whats the difference between simply placing 1btc into cold storage then sending .55 to bitcoinmax versus getting an insured passthrough ?

You are still at risk of losing the .55btc so you may as well get all the benefit if the pirate doesnt default. Maybe I am missing something ?

I'm betting Pirate will do just this.

So if you are right paying anything for insurance on Pirate is pointless.

I tend to agree, for different reasons (a diversified portfolio can be cheaper and pay more)

He will will make us a bar. I have already asked. Really I should have him do it. Would be bad ass:)

But I think you mean 100k not 1mill.

see edit above, ah sry I was priceing them in BTC by mistake, so yep 100k LTC at say $6,000 to $10,000 depending on how much in bulk OTC you could scoop up, actually that's much better too as there aren't enough coins atm to find 1M easily

You assume Pirate has paid back, he has not yet:)

Either way your bonds are worth 1 BTC

I think he was referring to the fact that you sold bonds around 1.5-1.6 BTC, made one payout from BS&T of 0.055, and due to the fortuitous timing of the BS&T wind down, you are buying back at 1.0 BTC. Assuming BS&T winds down correctly, I roughly estimate a 750 BTC gain for you and a 0.4-0.5 BTC/share loss for purchasers of the IPO.

We all knew the risks though going into it though...

Given the timing of the release of this bond, and assuming Pirate pays you back, I suspect many of us would appreciate it if you'd be willing to buy back at "$IPO minus $firstDividend minus $securityAndTransactionFees minus $pizzaForGoat".

While you would certainly be within the letter of the contract to not do so, you would garner a considerable amount of good faith given the circumstances.

Cheers.

Want an insured Pirate (BTCST) bond that you know the insurance money is really there and not dependent on bond prices on GLBSE or maybe even loaned to pirate himself? Well now you can!

75% of the insurance money will be stored offline. The address will be made public.

IPO will be this Sundayish however the first payment of 5.5% will not be made until August the 14th

I will only be selling 1337 of these in the first round. I -might- add more bonds later.

IPO price will be 1.55 

Contract

TYGRR-BOND.PI
Bond face value is 1 BTC.
If BTCST defaults the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
If BTCST does not default the bond will be worth 1 BTC.

100% of the face value of the bond will be insured.
75% of the bonds value will be stored offline.
75% of the insurance money will not be loaned or invested.
The weekly rate paid out will be X-.015
X is the rate Pirate pays out on face.
Chaang-Noi has the right to buy back the bonds at any time at the weighted weekly price plus 10%.
Payments will be made weekly at around 10 PM Tuesdays Thailand time.
Please see the forum thread or contact Chaang-Noi directly for updated information.


Please give a detailed explination to what you mean when you say


Remember that coin is for if Pirate defaults and so far he has not.

Thanks.

Pirate has announced his closure. The contract you created states my shares are worth 1 btc each.
The coin was proof of insurance on that contract value.

What happens between you and pirate is your business, I am not involved.
I am however a holder of these "insured" bonds that you are not currently taking back.


I understand wanting to avoid the pain of peeling the hologram, but alas, this is what that is for.

Unless of course you continue to pay interest on the bonds while we wait for your delayed payout in trying to save your coin?
I would accept that, you can continue to tie up the money as long as you continue to pay the interest.


Yes, Pirate said he will pay interest so yeah, I will pay out interest too just like the contract says. I do not understand why you are so irrational about this. Calm down please. Nothing to worry about lol.

If Pirate fails an interest payment then I will buy back at 1 BTC. That would be on Tuesday. You have nothing to cry about until then.

If Pirate pays out before then I get to keep my coin. I hope you know they are not cheap, I'm not going to destroy it (and not follow the contract) just cuz you want to rush things along.

Take a chill pill and we can all watch how this plays out together.

Peace.
I completely agree.
Its only been a few hours. Calm down. Watch what happens.
I for one trust Goat.
If I were in his position I wouldn't want to touch that coin and its beauty.
He will do what the contract says.

Just because pirate is shutting down doesn't mean he defaulted.

He announced the shut down, and if everyone gets back the coin they are owed, then it is a clean shutdown. No default.

When will I get my coins?
Starting Monday I’ll begin systematically closing and withdrawing accounts as coins are transferred.  I don't expect the entire process to last longer than a week.

So Goat won't have to pay out until Tuesday week if Pirate defaults.

No, I did not know. Also I'm still not 100% sure Pirate will pay.

I won't know until the coins hit my wallet.
My understanding, and as far as I can tell Goat had about the same information, is that when pirate reduced rates there was a huge run on withdrawals (fearing total loss of coins, ponzi, whatever) that put a strain on his free coin. He has since decided just to close down completely, possibly to re-open later. I think he mentioned revealing some very basic information about his operation. On another note, the price of bitcoin has also dropped under $8. For anyone betting long on BTC or Pirate, now's the time to make some great returns.

About the only "secret" info I had was that at some point in the future Pirate would be lowering rates. However I had assumed it was months away. Him closing up shop this quickly I had no idea. Since I don't know if pirate will pay or not I can't count this as a win or a loss.


But I will pay out either way and have bought all the bonds at 1 BTC and have placed a small amount of coin there to take extra sales.

Good luck!

Hi Goat,

To be clear, are you purchasing back bonds at 1 BTC each before pirate pays out?

Post by: piotr_n on August 20, 2012, 09:24:23 AM

Yes, because this is an insured bond. The face of 1 BTC is guaranteed no matter what pirate will do.
and because, if pirate does pay out, whoever cashed the bonds early will not be entitled for the last week's divs.

When can we expect you to begin buying back the shares?

A nice bidwall @ 1.0 is what that gold casascius coin was shown off in this thread for. Assurance you would cover.
It has been made clear pirate is done. Looking at a bid of 3 @ .5 is insulting. It should not have taken you this long to redeem a code.

No word from pirate about the interest and it has been about 4 days since I requested my last withdraw so it looks like a default for this bond.

1 BTC buy wall is going up soon. The BTC are now on the way to GLBSE.

Don't buy it people - don't be stupid! Pirate was very specific about the interests:

And moreover, yesterday my BS&T account's balance was increased by the last weeks interest - so I am sure that Goat's account has been increased as well...

He's just selling small lies to you, as he always does. That's his business model :)

When can we expect you to begin buying back the shares?

A nice bidwall @ 1.0 is what that gold casascius coin was shown off in this thread for. Assurance you would cover.
It has been made clear pirate is done. Looking at a bid of 3 @ .5 is insulting. It should not have taken you this long to redeem a code.

No word from pirate about the interest and it has been about 4 days since I requested my last withdraw so it looks like a default for this bond.

1 BTC buy wall is going up soon. The BTC are now on the way to GLBSE.

Thanks.



Lying to make a profit? I now accuse you of spreading FUD. This is not acceptable. Pirate clearly stated in IRC and elsewhere that it will take a few days to pay everyone back, and he is doing it as fast as he can.

You don't have to sell now if you want to wait for interest.  Goat is handling this bond very well.

So, if he pays interest for this week as well, you wont pay it to us?)
Dont u think that this is smt not very polite?
At my opinion if u want to finish this quicker, u should pay interest for this week as dividend and buy back all bonds at 1.055 for interest of previous week. Or again this is not what was said at the contract, but please take into account that u will also may get interest for this week, which should be payed at next Tuesday...

Full contract:

TYGRR.BOND-PI
Bond face value is 1 BTC.
If BTCST defaults the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
If BTCST does not default the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
100% of the face value of the bond will be insured.
75% of the bonds value will be stored offline.
75% of the insurance money will not be loaned or invested.
The weekly rate paid out will be X-.015
X is the rate Pirate pays out on face.
Chaang-Noi has the right to buy back the bonds at any time at the weighted weekly price plus 10%.
Payments will be made weekly at around 10 PM Tuesdays Thailand time.

I believe you are responsible for the last week's 0.055 when Pirate pays out.  Pirate is still paying out X.  It has been a week since the last dividend, and you are just today announcing the default.  Thus IF and when you do receive your withdrawal, you owe 0.055/bond.

Post by: ShadowAlexey on August 21, 2012, 06:00:51 PM
Em, speaking strictly why is it 0.055 for a bond?
If Pirate will pay for this week to, then this would be actually maybe 10% payout, so 1.5% goes to Goat on his contract and everything else goes to us, isnt it?
My IMHO Goat is responsible for any single btc of pirate out, if it is delayed then he should pay us the same way pirate does, only on 5.5%/w rate

Your contract says that u will pays us weekly rate-0.015
Doesnt it mean, that if pirate will payout u will have interest for previous and this week payed out, which means that u also should be paying dividends for that time?

You do not state in the contract that a default renders the remaining contract stipulations void.

Per the contract if you collect X, then X-0.015 is owed to the bond holders.

Yes, But I will not keep paying after he defaults. That is just silly. Pirate failed to let me take money out of the account within 72 hours or pay interest so I am obligated to buy back the bonds at 1 BTC. He defaulted and I'm forced by contract to buy them back now.

I will buy back at 1.055 assuming pirate will pay interest for that week if you want to wait and find out but I am not obligated to do this.

The bond is now dead and he has defaulted. I can't keep paying you interest and be forced to have money in GLBSE at the same time to meet my contract obligations.

I'm not going to deal with trolls and assholes.  If you find this interpretation unfair please start a new scamming accusation thread.

Thank you.

How can I collect interest on coin that I am forced by contract to have in GLBSE?

It's the insurance company's money that is forced by contract to be in GLBSE.

The bond holder's money is still with Pirate, supposedly collecting interest until payout.

In this case, you're the insurance company, sorry.

First of all, there is no definition of pirate default in your contract, so this should be decided by majority.
Plus, there havnt said anything about not paying out interest if he defaults. Meaning that if he pays interest while we hold the bonds even if we decide that he defaulted u should take your part and pay it to us.Second part is that u may force buyback only on market price avg. +10%.Other stuff should be done only when we chose to do so. And if u get interest for this week, it automatically means that your bonds should be alive till next payout.
Dont do double standards, if u wish to flow only the contract then u should do so fully, not only the way u interpret it your self...

Why cant you just pay them whatever you get back from Pirate, minus your 1.5%?
You sold these bonds couple weeks ago, at 1.50.
If Pirate does pay out, wouldn't you be feeling sorry for them?

Try to read the contract and try to figure out where I am obligated to have the BTC. Then try to figure out what you are asking me to do and see if that would require me to have the BTC in two places at the same time..

This can not be made more clear. Also do not forget your contract was with me, not pirate.

If you are asking me why will I not break the contract just because you want me to be nice, well lol you are silly. How about I brak the contract if pirate does not pay me back? You all will be nice right? Oh lol!

I also do not have any of these bonds.  But as the insurance paid out as stated I would not call them shitty.  I would call them fantastic.  I was leery of these 'insured' bonds but obviously Goat has honored his commitment.   Other pirate depositors do not have access to their coins at the moment at all and if these holders wanted to cash out they can do it now at a potential advantage.  That advantage alone could be worth much more then that interest payment.

This is completely crossing the line. He was NOT trolling; he just wanted a simple question answered. It is fine to respectfully correct people for being misinformed, but calling someone a troll just because you don't agree with their viewpoint is unacceptable.

I tried to be clear that I only believe Goat is on the hook for the 0.055 ~if~ pirate pays out.  At that point he's up ~0.5 BTC/bond anyway, so I don't think he minds paying out the 0.055.  :)

On the other hand, if pirate does not pay out, life sucks for Goat as much as it does for the rest of us and I certainly would not expect interest on money that has gone *poof*.

No, his life is 33% better than yours either way.

He buys the bonds back for 1.0 BTC if pirate defaults or if pirate pays. Either way, he's up 0.445 BTC per bond sold (because none of the 1.5 BTC you paid was ever sent to pirate). You automatically gave him 33% of your principal.

gee thanks for the great terms and taking that risk for me  ::) lol, the risk he takes is that pirate pays interest for 6 more weeks (33% / 5.5%). Oh wait, no risk for him there since his funds with pirate already covers that. So he's up 33% risk-free and you're out. WOW LET ME GET SUM OF THAT  ::)

Like I said, he doesn't send the 1 BTC to pirate. Instead, in the case that pirate doesn't default and continues paying interest, he can pay the interest on your coin with the interest he gets on his own coins. He swapped the risk of a pirate default onto the buyer of these insured bonds, who loses 33% if pirate defaults. He assumed the risk that pirate continues to pay for 6 more weeks. Pirate only paid on 2-3 weeks after the start of the bond, so goat keeps that difference.

Actually the contract doesn't say 1 BTC is sent to pirate. I guess he does it differently, completely backed by the contract:

Get 1.55 IPO price.
Keep 0.75 for collateral, as promised.
Send 0.85 to pirate.
Pirate pays 0.85*0.07=0.0595 per week,
of which Goat pays 0.055 out as dividends,
and keeps 0.0045 as fee.

This makes Goat a tiny profit per week, gets him 0.55 per share if pirate winds down orderly, but costs him 0.25 per share if pirate defaults. This fits Goats expectation of pirate not defaulting very well. We'll see if it works out, and hear the wailing of totally surprised investors meanwhile.

Some reasonable maths!  This is very close to what I did. But yeah I lose if pirate wont pay back. I had no idea he would stop so soon.

Yeah I made a typo ... 0.75 + 0.85 is not 1.55 ...

It went to .9999999 cuz people are holding the 1.0 spot hostage. Once they leave I will move it up.


Come on Goat, you moved it down because you don't want to pay 10 bitcents in fees? ;)

lol

Not trying to be an ass here, but I believe Goat is technically violating the contract by buying back bonds at 0.9999999 BTC instead of 1.0 BTC, as he is obligated to do.

Bond face value is 1 BTC.
If BTCST defaults the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
If BTCST does not default the bond will be worth 1 BTC.
100% of the face value of the bond will be insured.

Okay I will take down the wall at .9999999

If you want these bonds bought back at 1 BTC you will need to do the following.

PM me on the forum or e-mail and let me know how many bonds you will be sending and a return BTC address.

Once I okay that send the bonds to my GLBSE account.

Once I have the bonds I will send you the full BTC amount.



Thanks Gladamas for helping me see the errors of my ways, I almost got a scammers tag there!

Goat, it's no problem, I just thought it was a funny technicality violation... another possibility is to leave the bidwall there and then honor buybacks as mentioned in your post.

You can still apply the forced buyback and recall the security (should be without fees AFAIK), but some people may not like it  :)

Umm no. Go read the contract. I do not think I'm obligated to pay the first week but I will anyway cuz I said I would.
From what I've seen of pirate's posts, getting interest from him isn't a rock solid bet. That being said, passing on whatever he gets plus the respective interest (minus the stated cut per week) would be a good show (I am writing this entirely without regard to the contract, just good show).

I don't think people will forget that you're the only fully insured bonds that were reimbursed in time. I know I won't :)
