Bitcoin Forum

I saw the threads and information posted directly on the site, so I figured I'd make a less biased thread and sticky it so people could get their coins out, as recommended, and post the straight information as we know it. MCXNow is Shutting down hopefully temporarily. That is what the announcement says, so I'll go with that. If you don't think its opening back up, fine, but the known information for now is that RealSolid plans on opening it again, any speculation is purely speculation.

You are welcomed to speculate and fud in the thread as much as you want. I don't really have an opinion either way, but it is a rather important announcement as I'm sure many people had funds in there which should be taken out.

Oh please... This comes on the heels of a massive fee sale. Call it for what it clearly is; a scam.

Let's not give the herd any false hope; dump your fees for what ever little bit you can get, because RS is gone, and MCXNow with him.

Like I said, I don't really have any opinion on the matter. If its a scam, its a scam, get your coins out like the notice says.

Unfortunately, those who bought a piece of a now defunct exchange have zero recourse. You can't withdraw that. RS made off with thousands of BTC.

The big fee sale was what, 2 or 3 weeks ago? Nice thing to do when you know you're shutting down the exchange. ::)

Perhaps as a moderator you're not supposed to voice an opinion, but I know for a fact that you've been around long enough to witness all of RS's antics.

No, I'm free to voice my opinions, I just choose not to do so when I'm not certain or my opinion wont help anyone either way. I was a very early Solidcoin adopter, and spent more than a bit of time around RealSolid. I was never a fan of his attitude, but I will give it to him that hes a talented developer. Really, there is no such thing as trustworthiness. Just the pros and cons of which way you decide to go. If RealSolid thinks he can make millions more by operating the site, why would he scam? If hes done with the project, he might scam. I just don't know, so I have no reason to say either way.

I will say however that if you use MCXNow, get your coins out as per request of the site operator.

Agree with OP you only have a few minutes before the Fees become useless at least for now.
Man I really feel sorry for those that are invested in Fees. It seems like a great idea and I commend him for be innovative but this proves that nothing of this magnitude can be run by one person.

what sort of admin openly allows know scammers to promote their exchanges here?

I was lucky. I was able to login the first minute the exchange opened after maintenance and I dumped my fees above 0.19. My coins have already been transferred out. That RealSolid is a real piece of shit to do this to people.

There are millions of dollars at stake here, this is looking like the crypto scam of all time.

Essentially the people that paid 0.4BTC per fee share float recently have been scammed, without trade the promise of those fee shares is now worthless, they can't be used elsewhere, there should be refunds.

Best quote from rs that I just saw in chat:


realsolid: I CAN SHUT IT DOWN ANY MOMENT, if you didnt realize this youre a fucking idiot


Who will ever make deposits with this clown ever again? Look at his attitude.

What do you think when an exchange is closed (maybe temporarily, maybe not) after collecting millions of dollars from investors?

It was one man's exchange before the IPO, and he could do whatever he want that time. But now? After collected more than millions, then claiming cannot maintain it by one person, and cannot hire some talents to help you with millions of dollars? Unbelievable. Fortunately I did not invest on this guy and his website.

Incorrect. He was not selling shares of the exchange. He was selling shares of the fees the exchange generates. This is an important distinction because it protects him from legal action.

That is to say, you are fucked and have no recourse. I've been posting about this for months now.

@GoldSeal, got a screenshot of that? I'm gonna write an article about this and would love a record of all the ridiculous shit he's saying.

More gold from RealSolid:

realsolid: some of you guys are fucking living in a severe fantasy land worse than me ;)

:(

Can't I'm stuck on this tiny iPad mini. If you grab some quotes from his chat. He's saying some amazing shit!

http://mcxchart.com/chatlog/2013/11/25/

I have pointed the wayback machine at it in case RS decides to delete the chat logs.

Eek you rock. Did you see the quotes in there? It's amazing shit

A scam thread has been created for him:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=347008.new#new

RS claims he has done no wrong, however the tone of the users seems to indicate the opposite, it's not just a vocal minority either, he had to appoint two new moderators in a hurry to keep up with the chat bans, interesting times.

say you're closing, feeshares drop, buy them up - "oh, i've decided to take on a partner, so staying open" - feeshares go back up - made a tidy profit

He has sold a lot of shares at 0.4 BTC already. I don't think he needs to do this to add a little bit more. Most likely it's just "mission accomplished and let's enjoy" for him.

For those who still wish he will come back and thinking now maybe a good chance to get some cheap shares: even if he will come back, could you still trust one man team to run this exchange and this 'one-man' can close his site any time as his wish? Please cherish your BTC.

I get the whole learning curve argument of hiring codes to help with complex code, most of the time it takes a lot of time to get them up to speed and there is the element of trust that they won't screw anything up, then you have to go and fix it.

The argument of admin getting overwhelming is pretty thin though, surely with so many $$$/BTC made via the sale of the shares he could hire someone (or a damn army!) to deal with the emails and admin side of things?   I certainly don't believe that only he is able to answer emails and such.

I think realsolid has been very cautious to keep his identity anonymous, and I believe that's the reason the site will always be one man project.

Again I feel for anyone that got worked on this. I had coins tied up in Fees when they were over 1 BTC. High BTC price versus USD made me think about and I got lucky.
  

There is no such thing as anonymous, always a money trail for the services you use.


RS could hire casual help desk staff to handle all the emails and pay them in BTC if he wanted to, I think he is nuts doing what he does, and I am not having a go at him, I think he is suffering from a psychological disorder like the micro-management types in corporates that can't delegate tasks, hiding behind multiple aliases is also another sign.  I am no expert in psychology, but I can pick the basics from reading his chat logs.

"i will be coming back promise"  This is getting bull shit... First he "promises" he has enough private investors that all the fees will be bought up when launched.  Then promising gaming and such added to site.  Now he promises to come back when he is done programming other things AFTER 3 whole weeks making 8m$.   Fucking suck it up you made 8m$ answer some emails.   Even by some miracle you do come back with new sites and new features, who the hell is going to trust you now.  I am only glad I sold my fees for the equivalent of what I paid for them initially in US dollars so I don't feel I really lost anything.

I said it in the other thread and i'll say it here!

I personally would like to thank RS for all his shady deals and for giving me the opportunity and drive to create a real exchange with out all the hiding and back doors to run out of...

Thank you RS

As is my typical luck, it shuts down the day I decide to get back in to trading on this exchange. Oh well, at least I only lost the transfer fees.

If you really think the site is going down temporarily only, you really need to get your head checked out.  From his own words, it's going down on Dec. 20th and will take him 1 month maybe 3 months before it comes back up.  You really think that lazy retard realsolidfuck is going to do anything when he has over $8,000,000 from all the money he made off of you?  Why reopen an exchange when so many people are pissed at you for scamming them? 

Yeah keep buying them shares at .07.  They will have great value soon.  haha.  Keep listening to his paid pumpers.  Yes the ones that chatban everyone that says a single truth about the situation.

You are crazy to think this is temporary! I have exposed RS once, and now I have again: http://thecryptoblog.com/mcxnow-shutting-down/

ppl are still trying to buy mcxnow shares!  that's what I call adventurous!

can we pursue them by law??

Probably, you would need to contact the Australian Federal Police Cybercrime division, they would be the only ones with the authority to track down RS concealed identity. The Australian Tax Office might investigate too if you tell them about the $millions involved, especially after the inputs.io saga was all over the media.

what a rip off  :(

Do this, please, I wanna see how this fucktard looks like.

Lets not forget Microcash was supposed to launch April or May last year and as far as I'm aware is still in progress 18 odd months later.

I'm inclined to side with BCX on this one

Fee shares are supposed to pay out every 6 hours, they didnt at 0:00 and 6:00UTC yet there was a stack of fees from trades and withdrawls since the last payout at 18:00 yesterday. There is a broken promise

Nobody panic. You just need to read the legally binding contract you agreed with Realsolid you obviously read before buying the shares. Oh wait...........

I'm afraid BCX is right. RS must be good on social engineering.

You should see how many people RS has chat banned over the past hour for like 99999minutes, basically anyone that is critical of him or the site, he is really loosing it. I don't think it's social engineering at all, I think it's the byproduct of a psychological disorder. He has total disrespect for his customers, he publicly swears at them, bans them, and of course rips them off as much as he can. He make Josh look polite!

RS 's latest and greatest words!!! "i would fucking clock 80% of the users on this exchange i think" --- WOW is this the guy anyone ever really should trust to hold anything...

I think he planned this from very beginning. he is ugly scammer (he did all with accordance with law because he does want to enjoy his millions and not go to prison but it is clear that its scam)

Temporary (real) or not, no one will ever trust MCXNow as a legitimate exchange again.  He just did a nuclear bomb to his credibility, which was already in question.  Thankfully, I never put more than I could afford to lose there for this very reason and questioned his whole long term lack of redundancy and his resistance to want to pursue fiat since it would have required him to register for legitimate business licenses and regulatory oversight.  Something he could have easily pursued and paid for with the funds that were raised for the fee shares.

Well played scamming the BTC.

yes The Australian Tax Office might investigate when I have time I send them some polite announcement. Realsolid will be surely glad to speak to them in person.

The social engineering part was when he made so many people persuading each other about mcxFee.
BTW earlier today I've been surprised to see how many people still believing in him and willing to wait for his second coming in 1 to 3 month time... Cognitive dissonance I guess.

'The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world that he did not exist.'  -- Charles Baudelaire

I think you're right. Now when were you going to turn your attentions to Cryptsy?

I you are going to report him to Australian law enforcement, make sure you get his DNS record and print out the cooresponding ARIN whois info. They can get his identity from Amazon for those servers that he rented. Need this before his site completely disappears.

BTW, here's in the Amazon AWS abuse page if you are interested. See the nice part at the bottom about how to contact them with a subpoena?

Those supporting him have to. If they don't their shares are worth 0. If they have dreams maybe they will get a little back. That does not make it anything except a scam, but they can't have been burned as bad as you've been yelling.

I can say with firm confidence that I will never knowingly do business with RealSolid or anyone that I know does business with him. I will not work with anyone so unprofessional and careless with other people's trust. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way. So take that as a warning. If you do business with him, then you are dead to me and a lot of other potential customers.

Well can't say this was unexpected.  Still those who are claiming it is all legal to sell $12M worth of unlicensed securities without proper disclosures (a short PPM for a startup is generally 60 to 100 pages) and shut up shop less than a month later I have to ask WTF?

I mean what are you smoking?  Of course it isn't legal.  Then again NO bitcoin based security is legal HOWEVER generally securities agencies really only look for fire where there is smoke.  So if they don't get complaints they don't go looking.  Pretty sure securities agencies in Australia would be pretty interested in a $12M securities sale and company closure within a month.  Still given the history of Bitcoin scammers he may certainly get away with it, but stop with the "everything is 100% legal to steal $12M under false pretenses".


Before someone says "fee shares" aren't securities, don't make yourself look stupid.  They are called revenue share contracts and yes they are securities in just about any country.  http://www.bolstr.com/

I have owned some (not the stupid MCXFee shares real ones in franchises) and they are most certainly regulated.  RealSolid sold unlicensed securities.  That is a crime even if there was no other underlying crime.  The nature of the sale, insider trading, and shutdown certainly indicates it is more than just unlicensed securities but even IF it was just unlicensed securities that is a crime.  Period.   The reality is security laws exist to protect the issuer as well.  If facebook was an unlicensed security in the early days nobody would care.   Who is going to complain when to the SEC when your $1,000 investment is now worth $10,000,000.  However most business ventures fail and when they fail (even legitimately) people are unhappy.  The black and white terms of security offering and disclosure seek to indemnify the issuer against normal business failures (but not fraud).

Do you know his real name?  If not they you probably will do business with him in the future just under a new pseudonym.  Scammers love marks and once they find a pool they won't stop coming back.  Hell even if you DO know his real name the fact that you went into "business" with a totally anonymous person means you probably will do "business" (wealth transfer from you to him) in the future.

RS has removed the login link on the masthead, so for those of you trying to get your coins out, point your browser to https://mcxnow.com/login.html

Cheers.

He can certainly change his handle, but solidcoin, mcxnow, or anyone affiliated with any of his established brands - I will avoid.

Hey, does anyone remember the photo that he posted of his tooth? Does anyone have a copy of that image? I never took a look at the metadata on that file. There might be something there. Possibly a gps coordinate of his home.

Damn. I found it. https://i.imgur.com/eITMwYh.jpg

However, it's imgur and they strip the EXIF data. It is logged however and they will release it with a subpoena.

He is psycho definitely, no sane man could act as he does.

So sad to see those desperate people in the mcxnow chatroom, trying to keep there spirits up.  One guy even asked if he can still deposit his btc there.  Delusional.

What is the backstory on this pic?

Sorry to be dancing on your graves but i have said it before: anyone buying into a 'currency' (McxFEE) that's issued and controlled by one entity, an entity with a track record of scammy actions, well he/she is just a blatant idiot.

LoL, he is fucked now.

Good job RealSolid.......

Nice find.

So much about his anonymity expertize.

Ooof he needs to look over his shoulder now..

Thanks This is a least a small clue. I am willing to put in some effort to find this guy purely on principle. I did lose money but he is just going to come up with a new sock puppet identity and scam again so must be stopped.

We need some other evidence to back this up.

Good start though thanks.

I hadn't seen this topic before I had started a thread of my own, here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=347674.0 , but this was the jist of it.

Is realsolid really Ken Armitt kinda hard to believe even before I got into bitcoin I heard of this story http://www.abc.net.au/7.30/content/2013/s3732468.htm
I never would have even registered at mcxnow if I thought he was Ken Armitt.

Yeah if it really was the same guy running all these scams....

It really puts a black eye on crypto currencies.

I know we have to take responsibility for what we do with our coins but it is hard to get others to get involved when so many people are getting ripped off.

I am wondering if realsolid is even Australian?

Being an intentional scam from the start the Australian thing could be to get us off track.

I Checked the domain registration.


I did a reverse lookup on the phone number which said it is to a land line in Slayton, Minnesota. I called the number and it is disconnected.

However this could be a clue. Why would an Aussie, use a phone number for some random town in Minnesota even if it was fake?

/Facepalm

That's not his phone #. He hid his registration info behind WhoisGuard.

I can't believe RS would do this.

What is whoisguard? a company?

OK I looked it up.

http://www.whoisguard.com/

However could they not potentially have his information.

Also why would the phone number be disconnected?

Why not? He was vocal that he "could" do it. Everyone thinking differently is delusional, according to him.


I made a lot of money on his exchange and it worked good, but he has very poor character.



Also interesting, how he promised that new batch of mcxfees will be released in a way that for every 1 one holds he will have a right to buy 9 additional ones. Then he offer overpriced mcxfees at 0.4 which was at the time 80-100$ (depending on the date) and change his mind that everyone can buy them, not only current holders. Some got really fucked with this. Davidpate for example stated he lost a few 100ks of dollars. He also bought overpriced Solidcoins at the price 0.004+/coin. Just some weeks later I could buy solidcoins for 0.00016 :D Now they are probably worthless, I just have around 800 of them which doesn't bother me too much.


Anyway, fuck you all who bashed me because I was stating the obvious - this guy is a fuckin retard. He is smart nonetheless.

That's not going to help, you need to get the authorities onto aws who host the site in the US follow the money trail, IP's that sort of thing, IP's that access the BTC wallets. If he has paid $20,000 per year for hosting as RS claimed in chat yesterday, that's a pretty clear money trail.

 This doesn't give crypto-currencies a black eye.


 This is all about greed & fraud, pure and simple.

 It has nothing to do with Crypto-Currencies at all.



 This is the 2nd Gilded Age of Greed & Fraud!
---------------------------------------------------

 Fraud is rampant everywhere today!

 And Greed has truly gone absolutely crazy!

 Our world is spinning fully out of control!


 Look around, everywhere. What do you see?

I see systemic fraud and the most extreme levels of Greed ever!


 Just like anything this event is merely a reflection of society as a whole.

 But it doesn't give this wonderful monetary revolution a black eye per say.

 Instead merely another lesson and fact of life.



 Scammers are everywhere these days. Be careful. Choose wisely. Don't be too greedy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Hardly a sole will trust him after this. And rightly so. Write off the losses, get your focus back. Get on with things. Don't look back. Learn from it. He simply and purposely destroyed his businesses Goodwill with this manure. His bs is all too transparent.

 The following is how I decided to end/sign my messages here after starting out posting a while back.
Again it eloquently fits here in this message too. Guess I have a bit of vision...



Caveat emptor - let the buyer beware!

Yeah but he is just going to scam again. Come out with a new name for himself if no-one trusts realsolid any more and repeat on a new batch of suckers.

We need to catch this asshole. He has been scamming this community since at least 2011 it looks like and he is only becoming more successful.

There has to be clues. The feds Busted DPR off of a publicly available posting he made at Bitcointalk I believe.

You could start with all the IP's he has used here, many of the Tor exit nodes and VPN's are honeypots for the authorities.

This is interesting. His best bet is running away with all that BTC gained from the sales, which is highly likely.

i dont believe that this is temporary and dont think its fair that we cant trade back feeshares or solidcoins.

 I think he was an idiot for giving in to short term fraud and greed for what he received so far. That's nothing compared to what's at the end of this Monetary Rainbow for the winning Trading Exchanges that tough it out.


 In fact all he got was relative chump change compared to what other Exchanges will earn over the next decades ahead.


 He is a fool, and an idiot to do what he has done. And he is now a target for severe criminal prosecution. The victims need to file complaints in the proper jurisdiction(s). And assemble all the evidence possible against this person before it's gone. All the way down to capturing the saved website in files too. Capture and retain all evidence now. Make backups.


 This scumbag is all too transparent. Don't fall for any more of his bs. He's the typical Player (con) crying bout poor him.


 Soon much of the rift-raft and undesirables will be flushed out as this sector matures. But for a while yet there is still going to be a minefield of scams simply because of the nature of far too many in our society today, and not to mention this being such a new emerging sector.



 Best Wishes

Another thing that should have been a tip off that I missed was the Freak Bin chat that is invite only. Nobody knows who was allowed in there or what was discussed but since it was on RS servers it would be safe for him to discuss certain things in there.

The freak bin has a symbol on it that looks a lot like the Illuminati pyramid with all seeing eye.

Like I've said, that's his best bet and I'm positive that he will go for it.

Haha, I hope some angry fee holder will find him and smash his skull.

I feel like I'm reading the words of some teenager.
I could shut the site down tomorrow if i chose?  ::)

Asslickers are worse than him 1000 times, look at this moron:

That's got to be a sock puppet. No-one could possibly bumlick at that level.  Or could they?

pjheinz is also a low level scammer, he has an overdue loan at btcjam for about 22BTC.

He is either desperate and trying to double down as he claims to already have losses, or he may have been working with RS for awhile. Hard to tell at this point.

I think the Freak bin was used for insider trading as well. They would be able to discuss manipulations in real time right on the website itself.

p.s

How do you attach a picture you have saved to file?

Oh, they can, there are dozens of them in his chat all the time. It's bit like North Koreans are watching to they leader.

Just look at his admins, they're all great and calm. Of course, when they had an info and sold, guess that 65 btc wall on 0.2 was from one of his buddies, it was there for few days and as soon as it has been bough site went down. He was obviously waiting for someone to sell.

And David Pate got out of 1300 fees in last few days, RS obviously didn't have balls to scam him from some reason ad tipped him too.

I made a lot of money because of RS. So thats where the love comes from. From making easy money... Its understandable. (a lot for me, not much for many of you)

mcxfee is down to 0.05 BTC.

RS now has over 85,000 of the fees again. 60,003 in his own account and 25,000 in the site interest and lotto accounts.

So the number that were circulating when trade resumed at 0.4BTC at the start of the month was 32,898 and now it's down to 14,097 which is less than half, but the price has fallen a stunning 88.75%, the fee shares are not paying out either since he suspended trade of the other coins yesterday, his excuse it that it would annoy people collecting small sums. The regular collection of small sums is the entire concept behind the fee shares, there would have been a huge number of withdrawal fees over the past 24hours that could have paid a dividend to fee share holders.
 

Really scratching my head here. What is the point of having a big IPO, successfully raising $100's of thousands* for MCXNow and then....

"Sorry guys can't seem to find $50,000 a year annual salary for a single tech support person."

Get out, get out, get out.

And no, I am not trying to buy your stocks cheap. I never go within a stone's throw of MCXNow. Once again, just look at Mincoin...


 (*no idea of the actual figure, can't be bothered to calculate it, just guessed that figure tbh haven't check the figure)

I believe the point was to crash the fee share price, however I don't know why that would be a useful goal, unless it's  is simply a game to recover, as cheaply as possible, all the shares he sold at 0.4BTC to prove how stupid people are.

Someone should post Realsolid's name, linkedin profile, and other information so far shared in this thread on mcxnow's troll box chat. I would, but I already got banned.

I am not convinced people in this thread know his ID, it's only mildly co-incidental stuff I have seen here so far, doesn't mean it's not right, just means the evidence is weak at this stage.

Awsome convo in the chat right now. You can really see his colors while he's talking to these ass lickers. He really has no idea what he's done wrong in this whole mcxfee deal.


wiser: @realsolid well, it only matters if it's true. closing like this was bad PR at the best, and I hope that's all it is.
sirw00talot: Blam
realsolid: @wiser whats the scam?
yetanothertrader: @realsolid you didn't buy the fees back at 0.2 lol.
realsolid: lol
dragnar: @wiser bad and good pr ( u know now he wont run off whit your coins ) :)
manasmoker: @realsolid That's the only thing I see as the btc wall and a move to a better alt platform, all too early to tell still though which just makes for fucking interesting speculation anyway
realsolid: "he didnt make the commodity i bought go to the price i want, the scammer"
nerflad: @realsolid +1
realsolid: fucking morons
christopherttran: lol dumbass people, if you sell for less than that, it's your own damn fault

realsolid: @wiser i agree it doesnt look great, but its not a scam is it
jdanks: realsolid, take escra time to code a chatbot (instead of working on mcxnowV3) that autobans anyone that says the word scam
realsolid: its called reality, shit goes wrong some times
aroman1: ppl double up on your fees holding you will never get this opportunity again
wiser: As long as you keep in touch and you reopen as promised.
laughingbear: @realsolid are you Ken Armitt?
jdanks: fees are such a deal now
yetanothertrader: You know what else looks bad? A hacker draining everything out of this site.
realsolid: @laughingbear no you
coin666: @wiser everybody makes mistakes.. Shut ur fucking txt up!
wiser: If you suddenly drop off the world, then it will start looking more like a scam
dragnar: @jdanks noo then i cant say scamback any more :()
munkee: yeah i'm waiting at 0.02
premejo: I think that realsolid scammed those who made money. Now they won't ever be able to experience those valuable moments of life where they would otherwise have to make that money.
jdanks: realsolid. just lie to everyone. tell everyone you are scamming them
munkee: stop buying it up
jdanks: then fees will drop to zero and you can buy em all

wiser: but if you keep talking about it and keep us posted on progress, then you get benefit of the doubt.
realsolid: @wiser even if i closed the site, its hardly a scam, me closing the site at any time is possible with mcxfee, any investor with a brain knew this

realsolid: if you dont like that risk, dont fucking buy it, simple

shepshep7: Nobody should invest something they arent willing to lose
ratman: @munkee i love your persistent optimism.
wiser: I'm not complaining, and agreed.
christopherttran: It's no different than buying bitcoins at $800US, it can just as easily crash to 0
realsolid: @mfarshada litecoin node is down, youll have to wait 15-30
premejo: I invest to lose money.. it just so happened that I lost that bet this time :(
munkee: @ratman :D
ernie: @shepshep7 yeah like interest bearing deposits in a bank
dragnar: @christopherttran wtf man why say that now the kids could have understand this lol
jdanks: @shepshep7 yay you're a mod! :D
250bigones: @realsolid you did miscalculate in not having a support team here... but I think I understand how that happened
yetanothertrader: I've got 250 SC if anyone wants to help me get fees.
christopherttran: @realsolid Where are you based?
bitflux: bitcoin black friday coming up but they dont take SC or mcfee bummer hey!
mfarshada: okay then
realsolid: @250bigones yes and i stated that

Pretty sure thats not him. He actually had a lot of public info on the old SolidCoin forum, including his picture as his profile pic. I don't know why, but pretty sure the face in the video isn't what I remember. He was thin and kind of scruffy iirc.

For what its worth, I had an XPM withdrawal that got stuck.  I feared the worst after reading this thread but he responded to my email and pushed the transaction through.  All funds withdrawn.  No complaints here.

I think he will actually return and sell his shares again at a high price. Then he will laugh at his customers and say how stupid they are.

I tend to agree.  I think he will return and make a killing on the shares.

He may return but I think the customer base will be very wary of returning.
MCX was doing lots of trade, but in retrospect, it looks like he was pumping his own coins and scamming with the Fees

He'll be back - he owns 57,000 shares of Fees, which are worthless without the site being up....

I think the reason he crashed the price on purpose was so he could re-pump and re-dump the shares again. I mean he made probably 8- 10 million even with buying back his shares. By buying back his shares it also gives him cover that this isn't a scam. Him and his minions are constantly saying in the troll box that anyone who thinks it is a scam is an idiot because he could just cut and run with the money, but instead is buying back his shares. But he wouldn't even buy them back at .2 which was the going price before he halted trading. When he released the shares at .4 he halted trading on fess so they wouldn't go down then when he shuts down the exchange killing the value of owning fees he lets fees trade down to next to nothing. Funny how that works. Funny how every move RS makes is good for RS and screws over almost everyone else?

If he ran the business legit it would take him years and years to make that kind of money. Probably never since it is apparent that he was creating false volume and pay bans to give the company the appearance of having massively growing profits.

RS is so arrogant and cocky at this point that he isn't even laying low. He is so sure he has hidden his true identity that he is getting his flock ready for another shearing.

Once he has as many shares as he feels he can get he will re-open the exchange, make the dividends appear to be super juicy whether real or just another manipulation and then sell you his fees again at an inflated price.

All these RS nut huggers are either too stupid and in denial to see they have been and will continue to be conned or they don't care it is a scam as long as they think they can profit from it.

Don't buy for a second that RS is stupid, everything he says is a cold calculation. That is what sociopaths/psychopaths do, lie and manipulate.

It's sad really. This all could have been avoided if he dropped his ego and asked for help.

+1 to Salty on always keeping a clear head, I don't know how you do it.

He got enough millions from the sales that already happened.

Well this sucks, imo this was by far the best exchange for trading alt-coins.

I personally think this shouldn't be stickied at all. I think it belongs in scams section.

When did we ever sticky a BTC-e thread? Never to my recollection, this should be no different. I.e. keep the standard the same for all.

People put coins into an exchange it isnt the forum (here) who should be responsible for their negligence of their coins and where they store them.

People need to start doing their due diligence before sending coins to an exchange or merchant (including purchasing coins from myself). It is the smart thing to do.

@Salty, I think stickying this thread only gives mcxnow.com more attention than it needs (i.e. more advertising for RS).

Clearly he doesnt think his share holders are important or else he would not be closing up shop like this. It is blatantly obvious.

This tastes bad. He raised millions when he knew he would be shutting the site down because he couldn't handle the support. How is that ethical?

Feel sorry for investors.

I don't think it's ethical at all, that's why so many people are screaming. The guy lacks any hint of empathy and remorse, he bans or abuses all that question or complain in chat. The only ethical reason I can think of, to shutdown an exchange without warning, was if you found a massive security hole that put customers funds at risk, and that's not what he claimed in the shutdown announcement.

According to RS and his groupies, this thread and the others like it are just smear campaigns, no truth in them, classic denial syndrome.

I think RS wants to start a village in Tasmaina called Microtown, where they can all hang out together.

This. I saw it in real time on the trollbox also.

RS business plan:

1. Issue shares.

2. Shut down the site causing the shares to loose their value.

3. Buy back the shares for a fraction of the price.

4. $14 million Profit

I have the feeling this guy is going to spend some time in court in the not too distant future, might not have too much time left to work on v3, let alone run it for the long term.

Well there you go. Not enough love. :D

I might as well pile in. I saw something like this coming a mile away and wanted nothing to do with him and anything he touches.

No, the sticky says get your coins out before it gets shut down. The intent of the post wasn't to call RS innocent or a scammer, MCXNow is/was a large exchange that handled a lot of Alt Currency trade. If people had coins on there, and just were letting them sit for the interest, they might not be aware of the shut down, and that if they don't withdraw their coins within a month, they will either have them stuck there or gone, depending on the whole outcome.

As for advertising, I'm not worried about people seeing the Shutting down notice and thinking to themselves, "Now would be a good time to try out this exchange that I saw advertised"

I'm personally disappointed that he TOOK feeshares in at .4 and then allowed them to be sold at a substantial loss during his 3 month downtime.

People have lost money to him and I personally will never trust him again.

I guess I was coming from the question:

Is it your responsibility to warn people of this by stickying a thread?

I disagree as it is the individual investors' responsibility and risk.

I still stand by my comment, I think the thread is unrelated to this forum. Perhaps better put into service discussion?

Bullshit ! This is a key information for the time being that is of interest for all the community around alt cryptos. It has to stay for the time being and wouldn't recommend to try to hide it. It should be unsticked when not of interest anymore for the community.

The thread can exist, but having it stickied is still what I disagree with. If you are gullable enough to leave funds on RS's exchange, then you deserve to lose it.

His forum persona from the past has given all the tell tale signs that he is a shady character.

It isn't the forum's job to monitor and warn people of an exchange shutting down, in my view. That is the exchange's job. When other exchanges have shut down in the past there was never (from my recollection) a sticky for that in this subforum.

The key information is written all over this forum on why people should not have sent funds to RS's exchange, yet many did.

What I am surprised is that RS has not created a thread here to announce and warn others about the exchange shutting down.

Salty had to make a thread and sticky it instead, again, not his responsibility, but his choice.

His message on his exchange makes him sound like he cares given he is giving them time to withdraw their coins, so it is contradictory not to post a thread on the same forum he mass spammed his exchange to get millions of $ to his exchange.

Whatever the temporary closing. Just take your coin out, no problem.

RS is working on a gambling game with sort of pokemon fighting. That's what is on his mind.

I can't wait to try it.

Ahh, plotting his next scam already. Are we on the 3rd or 4th one now? I'm begining to lose track.

I am quite sure he want's people to cash out their MCX fee shares at rock bottom, I would say that was the plan from day one.

Dunno if it's a scam but I'll try it. It will be less boring than trading alt-coin and dice-game. Think about it : pokemon fight with Bitcoin, yeah !

It's obviously a scam, he lives in Australia and it's illegal for Australians to offer online gambling.

I don't get that. Why does it matter ?

To some people breaking the law does matter. I guess your not one of them.

If hosting gambling site is illegal in a country, host it somewhere else.
Problem solved.

I have to disagree with you. I was not aware of RS's history despite being around here since 2011. Not sure how that happened but it did.
I was recommended MCX by several upstanding sites and the wiki page mentions nothing of its developer. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/McxNOW
Obviously I didn't dig deep enough.
Keep in mind that there are probably a large number of people who were not even aware of who the operator is.
BTC-E keeps pretty tight lips on who is running things over there as well.
 
I am happy to say I did not lose any money as I never bought shares and was able to pull all my coins out (at a profit actually) but that being said.
I agree that this post is not so much a warning of possible scamming as it is a notice in the interest of all holders of alt coins that their balances need to be claimed soon.
If this post were to be buried it would not be of much use to anyone.

All that being said I would never trust RS again knowing what I know now. BTC-E seems pretty damn shady as well.
So what altxchange is safe? Safer? Safeish? Cryptsy?

There is NO safe place for your Bitcoins unless keeping them in an offline wallet.

Every time you move them to a place, you take risk.

I'd even say you should split your coins into multiple offline wallets to minimize the risk.

Not really my responsibility, but I felt that it was probably a smart move. A lot of people trusted Real Solid, MCXNow had a fair bit of volume, which means someone must have been using it. I thought about the interest system, and how likely it was that someone would have dumped coins there, and planned to just not check it for a while to see what they had accumulated. This thread is mostly for those people, as well as those living under a rock and don't see the Crypto news.

Why I chose not to make accusations, and post strictly about the fact that it is closing, and allow speculation for everyone else, is that it doesn't matter at this point. What does matter is if you have coins on the exchange to get them out.




Agreed, the safest place for your coins is on a properly secured personal wallet. As to what Exchange is safest? None of them really, however I do have a personal hotspot for BTC-E. I was there about a year ago when someone managed to inject $40,000 fake USD into the system, and purchased $40,000 worth of Bitcoins from users with nothing. BTC-E was the only exchange that I've seen that stepped up and refunded their users instantly, and took the $40k loss out of their pocket. Mind you this was back when BTC were $5, so they weren't making thousands per day on trading fees. I find it funny that the shady Russian Exchange is the one I trust the most.

But! Do you own due research, no exchange is safe, its just a matter of finding one that you trust with your money while you trade, and then taking the money off of the exchange.

I won a half a bitcoin over there yesterday for being one of the first $20 to post "$1000" when BTC hit $1000.

I feel pretty good. I've pulled all of it out, but I have one FEE just in case something does happen. It was a free .5 BTC so I might as well pay respect to the person who issued it.

Realsnake  8)

You forget that my thread isn't stickied. That is the main difference.  ;D

Not that it matters, just wanted to point out that it isn't the forum's responsibility but the users of the exchange.


We both called it, RS is pretty much what we presumed he is, shady and sneaky in his dealings. Once he gets the upper hand usually he gives everyone the finger.

You notice that he never once called users an idiot prior to his shutdown? Now he has the balls to do so.

Classic coward.  :D

He would have been breaking the law if he had offered online gambling, isn't it obvious?

Although Realsolid seems to be really busy, he was keen to help me on IRC with my password reset. Transferred out my primecoin successfully..

This reminds me of the Steve Miller Band song Take the Money and Run.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFGZufk4HFs

Lulz! Packing is bags and heading to the South Pacific.

Well, a deposit I made is stuck in the blockchain as "unredeemed." Meaning I can't withdraw it because it has not hit my account. I am sure they will let it go through after Dec. 20th. They are ignoring my emails. A total scam.

Oh he is touchable. One can create a civil suit against him easily enough if they wanted to pursue it. And probably easily win too if this all continues down the current path.

I am not sure but this also borders on/is fraud. Criminal suit is probably likely if someone took tge time to report it and follow it up.

I doubt that. If he comes back with a faulty site, what will you sue him for?

Well not exactly.  The sale of unlicensed securities is a crime in Australia (and in most other countries if he is not a resident there).  Granted if he truly is anonymous he may never get prosecuted however if he is truly anonymous then he wouldn't be prosecuted even if he simply stole the balances.

No legal counsel would advise him that he hasn't violated the law.  Now you probably are right in that he thinks it is lower risk to defraud through "non securities" then outright theft and that is why he is "helping" it just happens he is wrong.

Unlawful sale of unlicensed securities.  The act is a felony (at least most states and certainly in Australia if that is where he really is located), the felony make him not the company liable.  He hasn't even registered a corporation so his personal assets have always be unprotected (even if he was unaware of the liability) but even if he had operated behind a corporation the act of an overt felony by an officers for his personal benefit would allow creditors to ask the courts to pierce the corporate veil and find him and his personal assets not the corporation liable.

Time to move to some undeveloped country?

After the fact make sure it is a country with no extradition to Australia.  Of course if victims organized quickly they could ask the courts to retain his passport to ensure he can't leave.  Having $12M in nearly untraceable currency which is easily transportable and usable just about anywhere in the world would probably be seen by most courts as a flight risk.  Then again I don't wear a black robe so who knows.

I lost my password and you can not recover it automatically from the website...

Is RealSolid still doing support for his site?

Burger King is called Hungry Jacks in Australia as there was already a Burger King restaurant in South Australia when they came here. Most people know Hungry Jacks is part of the Burger King franchise.

He is Australian 100%, he talks lot of Australian stuff to not be the one.

And that tooth picture showed loads of Australian dollars on his table.

Ask Pirate about that.  Unlawful selling of securities is a felony not just a civil complaint however the SEC was filling to go after him for asset forfeiture civilly as well.  In addition to being charged with running a ponzi scheme he was charged with offering unlicensed securities.  Then again if RS is unknown it doesn't really matter.   Can't charge someone if you can't find them.

I doubt you would buy thousands and thousands of US dollars worth Won just like that. I mean, come on, I don't like him too but let's not make this some fantasy crime story, there is enough shit around it. He is obviously Australian.

Usual knowledge of small Australian related things. Can't go specific at this moment, too tired and can't recall specific situations but I've seen him many times speaking about strictly Aussie stuff that makes him certainly Australian. There is small, but very small chance he may be living abroad but I don't think so, some of those were up to date daily stuff, like weather, politics, laws etc...

Kind of off-topic, but started working on an exchange a few weeks back. Matching engine is complete. Finished support for google auth yesterday. Hopefully over the next few weeks I'll be able to finish the rest and start working towards a private beta.

Rest assured that when this thing launches there will be a real registered company behind it with datacenter presence in at least 3 countries. I've watched realsolid's clown show long enough and it's time somebody put something together that reasonable people can trust.

BTW, once we get the web version of the exchange up and running, we're planning to bring in some really interesting features. For example, I've been talking to a company, for the better part of 6 months, that has produced a forex trading application and they seem willing to convert it over to handle virtual currencies. At this point, they are holding for the completed API. It has full support for bank grade charts w/technical indicators and comes with an integrated automated strategy trading system. This isn't some metatrader4 bullshit either. Much more modern.

if you start a new exchange keep in mind that next too securtity of the funds, support is very important.
You should be able to communicate (or have people for you do this job like porfessional cuctomer care).
Nothing is more worse for a customer than a error which causes the funds to be on delay, and nobody is responsible or there is no support for feedback and help!

greetings

Excellent news. Hope it works out.

One question. How do you know your hosting provider won't steal coins off your server? They will have full root access to any of your machines.

Realsolid never wanted to run an exchange*, it was just his way of scamming people for Bitcoins. He really wants to run an illegal gambling site, and a real estate scam.

Good luck with your project.


* You can tell from the missing basic features: eg. the useless transaction logs, the insistence on anonymity etc. it's all designed to cover tracks not provide a meaningful crypto exchange service.

Where  XX.XXX.XXX.XXX where was my public adress at that time ...

lol @ the paranoia here, while I'm getting a bit pissed at the way RealSolid is handling things I also think it's an absolute shame that he's done everything like this, he had every opportunity to do things properly and was clearly capable of it with the way things were run but he got in over his head and decided to take some pretty ridiculous measures ( recently the $50 - $100 password reset fees were the last straw for me especially since it's all a digitally automated process ) and acting just like the banks do of course when I said this on chat I got trolled :P but I've seen banks charge less than that for getting your debit card back etc.

That being said though I seriously hope other people adopt this business model because it was fantastic and actually earned me quite a bit of money, if we could get more exchanges like this and people who won't throw a hissy fit and start internet drama wherever they go we'll all make a lot of money. If RealSolid didn't want to make an exchange he shouldn't have made it, I'd be fucking giddy if I got the kind of business he's been getting.

I'll be putting my newly earned money into cex.io, now if only we could convince them to let us mine some low difficulty altcoins >_<

Another gem a few min ago.

Yep :( oh well, time to search for more dividend paying shares.

So people are still at the MCXnow.com site yapping away with RS and claiming that our Accusation that Realsolid Scammed us by releasing a ton of MCxnow shares at .4 and promising that he'll keep the site running and even if he dies, his clueless wife could run it. 

Two weeks after selling all his fees, he decides he can't handle it anymore and wants to shutdown for 3 + months to attempt to lick his balls. 

If this isn't a scam, then what is?  How many stupid people around are there?? 

Sell the shares and run off for a break.  I swear, there's so many of his goons around pushing false truth to innocent people that it's getting quite amusing.

All I can say is beware.

Both Crypto-trade and Cryptsy have some shares on offer and neither are anonymous owners.

Looking forward to v2.5, finally we can deal with those pesky users.  :D

Obviously you're forgetting that the new best exchange ever in the entire world will be accompanied by.... SC v3!!!

Everything will be better and no one will abuse their creation (promise), climb on the money rocket!

http://microcash.org/rocket.png

Is that before or after RS finished Microcash that he promises many months ago before he started mcxNOW?

It could of been shopped.

The point is that if he was going to do a runner then he wouldn't of warned everyone about it before hand by announcing the shutdown. At worst he's guilty of manipulating the price of fee-shares.

I bought 4 shares after they dropped. Now that the sites back on, well...

The sale of unlicensed securities is a felony in Australia and the US (and 90% of the world as well).  Please stop staying obviously false and easily verifiable facts.

I'm not sure he's going to be disappearing. I think he enjoys gaining an advantage through manipulated circumstances far too much. It's not like he has lost all of his little groupies, just the ones that didn't get a tipoff.

Hopefully, his behavior will eventually catch up with him.

This reminds me of 2011 all over again.

Lol

What happened then?

Seems there is a version 2.5 coming

"To receive support for any user fault will require $50 to $100 equiv in fees that will be given back to the exchange in payouts like any other fee. This is to encourage people to be more careful with their login details. Furthermore, failure to be logged into an account for 2 months will see that account destroyed and all funds returned to mcxNOW as fees. This is a big change and will require you to agree to new terms and conditions to continue using the site. These changes are designed to make people more self reliant and less bothersome to mcxNOW. If you do not like these new rules it is advised you stop using mcxNOW."

Wtf is this... I've never used mcxNOW, but I certainly won't use it now that they're adding this stuff.

This is literally the worst exchange ever if they actually implement those things. It was already sketchy just because RealSolid was running it, this is just icing on the cake.

 
That's something I was complaining about as well, best thing to do is just avoid it and move on, hopefully other exchanges will at least adopt interest payments I see that Vircurex already has started doing the same sort of thing but it looks like it's still being tweaked.

I just pray that no one forgets this shit that's occurred with MCXnow and when they attempt to scam again, people open their eyes and do not fall for RealSolid and his goon's tricks. 

I didn't believe a few of the old timers before and actually helped to pump Mcxnow quite a few times.  But now I have learned the hard way and encourage others to look at the past and remember it for the future so that they do not fall for these tricks again. 

Realsolid is too stupid to realize he's screwed every single person who's invested in his mcxfees (besides the insiders who were prewarned by him). 

Don't get fooled again folks.  The next con is coming back and they will continue to scam for more and more from the innocent.

Anyone who left the site with coin/mcxfees and does not check it for months because it's down will have there account destroyed and lose everything?

I am not sure I read this right inactivity for 2 months you lose everything in your account. Does this apply to people before they accept his new TOS?

TOS  :D

He makes the rules up as he goes along.

But he said he is shutting down 2-3 months the first time now he says anyone who is inactive for 2 months will lose everything on there account.
And of course he told everyone to get all their coins off the exchange but to keep there MCXfees or sell them.
Won't people who left their fees there because he said they be safe lose all of them if they don't check the site for 2-3 months while they believe it is down?

Do you see what I'm getting at he said leave for 2-3 months now if your inactive for 2 months you lose everything.

That sounds like something he would do.  Then he would say that it is your fault for not reading the terms and you are an idiot that deserves to lose your money.
But if you want to risk it, go for it.

Let's end the story of this Realsolid thinking he is a god of C++ devlopment but who is just yet another scammer not worth of interest and incapable of driving a real business on longer terms, incapable of expanding a team beyond the 1 person team.
Just, shame on his ball lickers getting the gold color on his "awesome" chat and let's get the community back on worthwile crypto world.

I used to agree, But really MCXNow is GOOD. Lets see what the future holds for this awesome exchange.

If by good, you mean arrogant, narcissistic, thieving, megadouche, scamming, puppeteer, con man, then yes I agree.

I'll give it about 6 months before he triumphantly returns with the launch of microcash and makes this recent haul look like chump change.

Certainly is no shortage of idiots with money in the cryptoworld.

It actually makes it dangerous to simply deposit any coins into this exchange. You might not be able to access the site for a few months - and your coins are gone. The worst thing they could have done indeed.

Ther is already a long list why you shouldn't deposit coins into mcxNOW, these new reasons are just on top of that. You have an anonymous unstable pool owner that wants people to invest millions into coins which can't be used on any other site or stored in a block chain. That should be reason enough.

mcxNOW is like a disreputable pub in a bad neighborhood, it attracts a certain kind of clientele if you know what I mean.

Good points. There have been red flags all over this site all this time, just not as big as this one.

Hope people finally learn and stop using this site should it come back online. This is just too unprofessional.

Yes! This part:
"failure to be logged into a account for 2 months", what if they disable login for 2 months!?
I think RS thinks this is a legit way to steal all coins still left on the exchange 2 months after he shuts it down..

Yes! This part:
Quote
Furthermore, failure to be logged into an account for 2 months will see that account destroyed and all funds returned to mcxNOW as fees.


So you collect 'Interest' on your deposits except he will take everything if you just buy and hold. as fees means 90% to RS

Boycott MCXNow.


It's obvious his greed has overtaken his logical reasoning.

omfg. this guy is a real piece of shit. he wants to take your coins if you don't log in for two months? why would anyone want anything to do with someone who treats customers this way?

Boy, I was going to reply to some of the most ridiculous posts here but, alas, low ROI.

My main objection to 99% of the posts I skimmed over is - people are throwing words around without even understanding what these words mean, i.e. they don't really know what they are saying.

Examples:

arrogant, narcissistic, thieving, megadouche, scamming, puppeteer, con

If the authors of the posts would just quote what (dictionary, if need be) definition of these and other similar words they are using are, then maybe they wouldn't even write these words down in the first place.

So if the authors of the post don't even know what they are saying, how do they hope to provide anything useful to the readers?

There is nothing.

Moving on.

Just because you don't understand what the author was saying doesn't mean others here have the same difficulty. I had no problem interpreting his post whatsoever.

You were quoting me, although you seem to be afraid to actually quote me. Shall I explain?

1. Realsolid is arrogant.
2. Realsolid is narcissistic.
3. Realsolid has stolen and continues to do so from investors and people on the forum through various scams over the past couple years.
4. Realsolid is a megadouche, seriously just watch the douchefilled things he posts in his chat room or on the forum or any IRC log where he is present.
5. Realsolid is a scammer ^ see above.
6. Realsolid is a habitual puppet master with many accounts and an army of yes men on the forum to help bolster his scams.
7. Realsolid is a con man ^ see above.

If you really need me to link to a dictionary for you to understand what any of those words mean, you should probably not be on here trying to argue any of these points.

I'm not being clear enough. And you're assuming all dictionaries have the same definitions.

In fact, to understand you, I need your definitions, see.

Quote your definitions of

scam

stolen

con man

before you go any further. If you can not do that, hmm, you may be running away from the truth.

Nothing personal. Everyone who uses such words should do  a deep introspection first.

Scam : Not worth my time, if you are trying to pick apart the meaning of this word you are a lackey and will defend him to the death.

Stolen: Not worth my time, if you are trying to pick apart the meaning of this word you are a lackey and will defend him to the death.

Con man : Not worth my time, if you are trying to pick apart the meaning of this phrase you are a lackey and will defend him to the death.

Taking of any property tangible or intangible (without permission) constitutes theft, whether that goal was achieved via social engineering/breaking & entering/carjacking makes no difference.

I like that

"Taking of any property tangible or intangible (without permission) constitutes theft, whether that goal was achieved via social engineering/breaking & entering/carjacking makes no difference."

The permission thingy in brackets is something most people rambling here seem to forget, for example.

An interesting application of your definition is an application to trades.

Just because you bought something (a  coin, a share) high and sold low, noone has "stolen" anything from you since you did both actions (buying and selling) voluntarily, that is, for instance, somebody has taken your coin, or shares with your "permission".

Yes, we all get it, you think he did not do anything wrong because he did not explicitly say, "Oh by the way you guys, I am going to just steal your coins now. And fortunately I orchestrated this cluster of scams with a built in loop hole. Sucks to be you guys!"

Did Realsolid close the website with any profit share holder's permission? When people bought the mcxfee, they were expecting the site to keep open at least for years, but actually it is less than months, just after collecting a large amount of money.

Is false advertising and insider trading by the issuer in the stock market a stealing? Will they go to jail because of that?

Do you think you are cool or smart when playing with words and definitions in front of those who have lost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands?

I think that says it all.

How would you define "++ my post count"?

I personally would take it to mean that you are on a puppet account. Are you another muppet? Not like it matters you are apparently part of the "I swear I am a smart guy/lawyer/genius club" that troll the forums/internet/4chan hoping that someone will think you sound like what you claim to be.

Do you really get my point?

If you get my point, then you will define "do anything wrong" (<--- you wrote it). What is your meaning of "doing something wrong", exactly?

It's really hard to get such "subtle" points across.

I am not asking what RealSolid did or not do.

I am asking about your definition of somebody "doing something wrong". Let's say in the context of running a business. Do you even have the definition plain in the open? Or is "wrong" whatever you say is wrong?

Seriously, can you focus on this point of mine?

"Not like it matters" exactly. This is off topic. What I talk about has nothing to do with RealSolid/MCXnow and everything to do with how people in this thread nonchalantly throw words without much meaning around.

I'm sure there are other threads where the same symptoms show up.

You are off topic and wanting to focus on an obscure point you are trying to make and still no one cares. If you want to teach people how to think go to mcxnow chat room and talk to like minded people.

Armchair miner do you fancy yourself an armchair intellectual?

The posts you are nit picking at were made in plain english and other then yourself I think everyone understands what was said.

Stop trying to derail this thread with your ramblings.

What RS did was morally wrong and there is the potential for criminal charges if we could figure out his true identity. The fact that he has gone to such great lengths to conceal who he is shows that he knows there would be repercussions for himself, even if he can justify that his actions weren't criminal.

He sold Fee shares with the general understanding that the exchange would continue to grow in volume over the coming months and less then a month after releasing them he closes down the site. How is that not a con job?

To be quite clear and to add to a previous post.

Realsolid is a socio/psychopath.

I noticed that RS is working on a new proprietary coin something like mcxBUX to only be used on the mcxNOW exchange, effectively a fiat coin, with a central issuing authority. It's to be used to pay for certain services on the exchange.


My advice is to stay away from any coin that you can't transfer to another exchange or private wallet. That includes mcxFEE, Cryptsy points, and most likely mcxBUX.

You guys realize that if MCXNow was regulated like a bank, realsolid would have to publish the change of terms in the newspaper and give at least a 12 month window for users to withdraw?

His 2 month inactivity rule is going to to wipe out many accounts of people that left their coins there for safekeeping and don't check often.

It is a very sneaky, under the radar kind of fraud he is perpetrating.

This is why I made this thread  :)

Whether or not the exchange dissappears for good, is something we wont know for a few months, however hopefully people will see the shutting down thread, and get their coins out that they left for the longhaul.

Dealing with him is really very simple. Just avoid doing any business with this clown. He will rob you.

This is a very good point. Over the summer I was extremely busy with work and left large balances sitting on MCXnow for a couple months, this was before interest even. i didn't even have time or energy to check in on the forums. Someone in my position now could have all their coins taken and RS would just tell them they were an idiot and deserved to lose their coins.

This ^.

Hopefully people coming on to the bitcoin/crypto scene will learn from history.

At least I'm seeing other exchanges offer up interest and dividend payments, now if only they'd work on the lag and the security I'd feel more comfortable keeping my coins there long term :P

Just because you have either a very limited vocabulary or a chip on your shoulder about anyone who criticizes MCXNow and RealSolid doesn't render the words meaningless or incorrectly applied.

From what I have seen and read about this exchange, the owner-operator and his "exchange" is every bit of arrogant, narcissistic, thieving, megadouche, scamming, (not so certain about "puppeteer") con.

Your post is the one which indicates a lack of understanding and knowledge.

Armchair Miner, My main objection to 1% of the posts I skimmed over is - people are throwing words around without even understanding what these words mean, i.e. they don't really know what they are saying.

Examples:

arrogant, narcissistic, thieving, megadouche, scamming, puppeteer, con

If the authors of the post would just quote what (dictionary, if need be) definition of these and other similar words they are using are, then maybe they wouldn't even dispute the use of these words in the first place.

So if the authors of the post don't even know what they are saying, how do they hope to provide anything useful to the readers?

There is nothing.

Simple

TOS said Shares and Interest paid every 6 hrs.  It was well over 6 hrs since the last payment when the site was shut down. Note shut down not crashed not attacked so all data was there to make a payment.

He failed to do so. The period from the last payment due to the time of the shutdown also should have been paid. But as there were not trades for the full six hours the amounts would be less but not zero.

Now if people want to trade at exchange that is closed down when the owner gets too much email and if you leave your coin just sitting there for too long he'll take it, it is indeed up to them.

Interest payments are still happening at 6 hourly intervals, they were offline for a while until SC and MNC trade were reactivated.

There is very little trade going on there atm. so the interest is rather worthless. Only some people trying to drive the price of mcxFEE shares down so the can pick up cheap ones, however they are causing more harm then good, iif mcxFEEs were back up around the 0.4BTC of the last release, then money might enter that market. Noob traders do things that make money exit markets, where the good profit is when new money enters the market, BTC/USD is a perfect example.

FOLKS!!!    MCXNOW hasn't even scratched the surface of its full potential.   I'm sure those that have made tons of cash trading since launch of the exchange can agree that it has proven to be a successful and it is here to stay.  Grab the bargains while you can and reap the benefits in the coming weeks! 

Hello RS.
You mean it was just a warm up scam? The main scam is yet to come? Jesus.

The long con cometh.

So If I check my account I will see the missed payments from before he shutdown the site because of too much email?

or is it Yeah I should have sent coin on Monday but since you sold your shares on Tuesday I'm not going to just stop paying you after Tuesday I'm not going pay you for Monday.

Yes we all should listen to you because you have such a good standing rep in the community and have been transparent about Who you are and what your intentions are.

Lol  ;D

Why are people calling MCXNow a scam?

I put some coins there and following his announcements I withdrew them to my wallet - and they all showed up instantly.

I can't do that with bitstamp - I've been waiting for my coins from them for two weeks now!!!!  >:(

..and of course bitfunder who basically just stole everyone's money.

Well if you even bothered reading the thread you would not ask that question..

He is serious asshole but boy, his trading engine is miles ahead of competition. If he could only sell that site to some normal guy, it would beat all competition in month.

Amen

Is that actually true? I remember seeing the WDC volume bug that had shown up where the seller volume was listed as BTC but that's about it. It's really a shame about mcxNOW because it was actually run quite well I thought I would wait it out but seriously changed my mind when he started putting in such ridiculous rules, the paybans were annoying enough by themselves lol.

Volume or not, it's technically very good and lightning fast site.

The site was never tested under load, he pulled the plug on it when it was doing only a few hundred BTC of trade per day, who knows what memory leaks and race conditions lay lurking below the surface, C++ is notorious for those. The site lacks basic exchange features such as an audit trail on your trades/deposits/withdrawals, password recovery, a support ticket system etc.

The payban is just another revenue scam like the high trading fees and the upcoming support fees. RS tries to deflect the scam by making out it's revenue for fee share holders, but neglects to mention that he holds 86% of the fee shares, 61% personally, 25% in interest pools which pay the fee share holders of which he is the largest!


So, what did the people who invested millions of dollars worth of BTC in mcxFEE shares get for their money? Sweet fck all, a B-grade site that lacks basic features, and has almost zero trade volume, worth at best a couple of months of full time programmers wages, certainly not millions.

It being overpriced was never a doubt  :P

...except that he's not gone. He still comes on the chat regularly to talk to users.

I just don't trust a site where interest and fees are skipped and the exchange is shut down By RS when he wants to with NO WARNING. Not offline because because of attack or bug just because he deiced to turn it off.

Well how else would he gloat and rub the nose of those he screwed in it?

Yeah, theres still really 1281 people online.........

I would not trust that it has no backdoors.

"Supporting the source code was just too much so I shutdown all exchanges using my code"

I hope RealSolid gets neck cancer and it causes him to aspirate blood before dying.

For example:
http://trialx.com/g/Neck_Cancer-3.JPG

McxFees dropped again ...

Are you completely sane?

Just my opinion; If you bought fees you did so yourself.

I bought 8 BTC worth of fees at .4 and I'm holding them. Either RS delivers and has a great exchange, or he fails and that was the risk of the investment. Whining about it just shows what kind of person you are. It can't all be profit.

Trust me.

Yeah wishing someone a paintfull death is only allowed with more posts/trust ofc.
Also my opinion is less valid with lesser post count. It's not about how or what you say, but how often you say it ofc.

_baka

(also; this is my new btctalk account, shit got hacked remember?)

Well I will agree that the neck cancer thing is a bit deranged. But the attempt to undemonize RS and his massive douchefilled scam wont win you any friends here. And your post count/trust/registration date will certainly call you into question.....so thats what you just witnessed.

To be fair it's not about demonizing or de-demonizing. I'm just giving my opinion. And I was well informed about RS, microcash and solidcoin, and even coinhunter before i bought fees. My decicion to buy fees did not change. I always consider everything with crypto a risk. mcxFEE is no different.

The guy who's ass you are licking here is saying things of that and even bigger altitude daily.

I concur, it simply gets you the wrong attention for a very good reason. He has a small army of brown nosing trolls who use the exact method you were (appearing) to use to make him slightly less evil looking.

Apperently there is an equal amount of "small army of brown nosing trolls" feeling they have been scammed. on something they bought themselves. So it seems to balance out. But death wishes are godwins for discussion, hence my reaction on GoldSeal.

Then why did you buy them?  The idea is good I had some myself. But buying fees in a site that skips payments and the site shuts down because there are too many emails to answer, seems more than a little risky.

With all the history you say your informed on why do you think this time it will be different?

I have never seen a skipped payment, but I haven't been paying close attention, so it could have happened. It's a risk investment isn't it. Like i said, It could be a great fast exchange, or RS could just give up and then I have lost 8 btc. That's the risk of investing in anything.

Fact is, during the trading stop , no coins were lost, coins could be withdrawn and RS is still present in the mcxNOW chat. If he wanted to scam everyone, he could just easily have walked away. Future will tell, but death wishes? damn.

The fact that mcxNOW is a decent coded exchange.

And Josef Mengele was a very intelligent doctor too, but it does not mean I will sing his praises around a holocaust forum for the awesome amount of knowledge he had in Anthropology. The fact of the matter is he was a monster. Welcome to the bitcoin equivalent RS, you are the Josef Mengele of bitcoin.

It was coded nicely before he decided not to pay a couple fee and interest payments and the coding of the site was not the reason he just decided to shut it down with no warning.

It's real cheese and very tasty. It doesn't mean it's not a trap.

Godwin's law violation put yourself in time out.  :-\

Yeah, that comment made me want to draw the comparison in the first place.

Was it worth it?

Men do not second guess their decisions. Don't you know anything.

When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things.

Quoting Corinthians on the bitcointalk is another way to not gain friends, just saying. Not that I personally have an issue with it.

So If I understand you correctly your thinking is a lot like mine was back in September.

It's a good trading engine Trades are posted and processed very quickly. Profit sharing as fees and interest payments on deposits are outstanding features that will cause the number of users to grow.

Future plans of gaming and other expansions give a good chance the fee revenue will increase even more.

The level of investment is small enough that if it's a total loss it will be disappointing but not a disaster.  

Here are some things that changed my mind.

There were some BTC deposit and withdrawal problems. while they were fixed eventually When RS is offline there is no support. Just chatbox mods that tell you RS is asleep it will get fixed when he wakes up. It did but that was when I realised not to expect much if anything for customer service.

Before the big fee sale RS announces that current fee holders will be able to buy up to 9 new fees at a discounted price for each fee held before being opened to all members Many feeholders bought more fees and some members bought fees now so they could buy discounted ones later. I did not buy any extra fees but many did. RS then changes his mind and states that there will be no discounted fees available. But Feeholders will be given an exclusive time at the beginning to buy full price shares.

From this I learned that investing based on RS plans is very risky as his plans change even after people start acting on them.

Then the fee sale happend price was set at ~20% below market value. Sale went of and ended without all fees offered sold. I bought some during the sale and had no complaints.

Part 2 later

yeah Mogrith that seems about right. But the 1:9 rule was only discussed in chat, not in news or announcements, but I have to agree on that one, that was not a good move. But I knew what the risk was of buying fees. RS has the means and skill to make it work. Let's wait for part 2. (instead of distasteful death threats)

Chat is the announcements on that site, most people at the time knew about the 9:1 offer and many bought fees at like at well over 0.5BTC to take advantage of it, some bought hundreds! (davidpate)

And now I here the owner is not shutting the site on the 20th. anymore is that right?

Lessons learned from MCXNow

Note I'm not a big trader Most BTC was around 1.5 had 13 MCXFees at most.

So the Big Fee sale was over some people sold out and price dropped. I believe I picked up an another share on that drop.

Things are good exchange is chugging along, people playing pump and dump on DVC, trolls spouting BS in trollbox it's nice.

I learned that this is good stable exchange that is not hacked or ddos'd.

BTC starts rising alot. I'm on the trollbox when it crosses 700 then 800 as a matter a fact RS was giving out fees to the first 10 that announced it hitting that level (calling it early got a banishment), I got a fee from each. So time goes on and it's late November WDC is on a rise and it looks like it's going to keep going Sold half my fees and bought WDC. I was at work but off the clock and decided to drive home.

When I get home MCXNow is down and stays down for what was it 2 days? then sorta comes back with the news trading is closed you can take your coin out if you want. Turns out there was nothing wrong with the site. RS just closed it with no warning (Not going into what he said was why just that he did do it) trading will be closed for 2-3 months not fees or interest will be paid but you can sell the Fees but not the coins. Not having really learned to not believe RS about what he will do in the future I sell my remaining fees at ~.07 and withdraw most of my coins. The it reopens for trading in the 3 coins RS made and Fees are back. But the fees that were due ~10 hrs before closing were not paid or the fees that would have come due if he sayed open. so one full 6hr payment and one partial.

I learned that RS will just close the site without warning. Say what will happen next then do something else.

So I'm not going there now. Yes I sold my fees but the data is all in the logs for him to make the 2 payments for when trading was open and commissions were charged and the fees were owned. But he is not doing it.

If MCXnow 2.5 or 3 or whatever opens with a support staff and a gaming site opens I'll take a look. But RS just doing it himself nope his past performance on the non-tech side just keeps me away.

roflol you guys get all bent out of shape about a little neck cancer. hehe

And no. I'm probably not completely sane, but what's wrong with wanting to bring a little happiness into the world even if it comes in the form of RealSolid's neck cancer?

Guys if you want to keep MCXnow alive lets get some microcash! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=377742.0

Unstickied, Deadline to get your coins out has passed, if you haven't got them out already, good luck.

Yeah, this is not quite as bad as inputs.io or pirate. At least we knew this guy was a scammer from day 1, so many avoided it.

And here comes the new year and.......no site relaunch....shocker.

So the Nov 2013 announcement on the site says that mcxnow


It's been like 6 weeks and still suspended.

But look there ar 1385 suckers people online  ::)

You mean 1385 uncleared session cookies or something like that.

Or "1385", 4 characters left in the source because he no longer cares to cover his tracks because.

http://cdn.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/rich-bitch.gif

What can they be doing on that exchange anyway. trick each other with pump and dump on RS's own coins? no new suckers rubes users can sign in.

There are 2 coins active on the exchange, MNC, SC, plus  MCX fee shares. The total BTC volume of those 3 in the past 24 hours was

 Volume: 3607.0 MNC / 2.0 BTC
 Volume: 2815.0 SC / 0.0 BTC
 Volume: 143 MCX / 30.0 BTC


So it's a 32BTC trade site atm. the transaction revenue from that, a pittance. The site has been dead since November 2013, loosing money every day in server hosting fees.

The site is mainly a chat box where people swear a lot, talk about body parts and drugs. Nobody is really nice there, it's like a small pub where crims hang out.

It ran really fast so Im sure he'd get people back if he brings it back, would be foolish not to I think.   Surely he could have just sold the enterprise off as a more profitable way to depart

Too heavily tainted for me to trust now. The site worked well had 2fa an interesting chat group. But if RS is in charge the site can just shut down with no warning .

If the code was made opensource and others made exchanges I might try one of them. Closed source bought from RS. Nope don't trust Him.

Are there any open source exchanges? I have never heard of one, they can all simply shut down, it's not like ther is a public block chain to prove you own what. One day there will be p2p exchange I am certain of that.

this

Here in the U.S. we cant pull off such scams without getting put in jail...

mcxNOW.com (https://mcxnow.com/?r=superresistant) is up with new features.

Yes but the same owner is running the site. That problem needs solving first.

The introduction of new features seems to be mainly another bogus currency pair, MXB/BTC that only exists on that site.

mcxBUX is an experiment.
Realsolid will use his own money to assure the dollar parity with sell wall and buy wall.

So 1 bux = 1$

You can earn bux by chatting and with referal :
- 100 chatline give you 0.1 bux
- A new IP clicking on your referal link will give 0.1 bux

my referal link : https://mcxnow.com/?r=bidji29

You can use Bux to buy protrader account on the site and to payban people.
In the future it will be a currency for gaming/gambling

TL:DR mcxBUX is a sockpuppet generator

Referral (https://mcxnow.com/?r=superresistant) is based on IP. No point of creating multiple account nor sockpuppet.

Sheesh you guys are morbid! stating obvious facts that can be found everywhere in the world...Hello, Julia Gillard!!! Hello Ben bernanke!!! Hello Vapor backed USD!!

As they say there is no such thing as bad publicity and every time you bump these threads and say his name..well its obvious isn't it

I have some obvious deductions of my own.
What you guys are really saying is you are jealous, angry he hasn't produced MC which might i add is way ahead of its time anyways and could do with a back seat until people understand how screwed they are by their current systems.

You are saying that you owned mcxfee and power dumped them when the site was halted and are looking for someone to blame,(if you sell its your own fault) you are saying; the risk you took by buying fees for a 1:1 ratio; second release was scrubbed and you're sore.

You're also saying that because you don't feel comfortable trusting the site everyone else has to hear your narrow, double standard opinions of this guy and this site and the people who hang there and support it...over and over and over and over and over again.

But what some of you are really saying (looks at BTCX) is you are pissed you didn't come up with this idea yourself and what you're really always showing  is what YOU would do in this situation (cut and run with everyones money) and what you are really showing is how untrustworthy you and the people who agree with you are.

Trusting anything/anyone on the Internet is hard in some cases and you have to be able to discern what is good and what is bad.

Try to remember you are not perfect yourself; being unmovable and so extremely adamant that he is not to be trusted imo needs to be looked at.

At least try and be honest enough to ask your self if this is really about you more then anything else because no doubt some of you are sore that the btc you funded the MC project with is worth a shit ton more now; no doubt you lost money when you sold mcxfee and no doubt you lost money when you bought mcxfee thinking you had a 1:1 ratio..but does that really warrant such hostility, is it really contributing to the progress of MC and or any other projects because if you ask me its not over until that guy is dead or has completely disappointed and until then everything is just assumptions and is not really contributing to progress nor is it healthy

I would rather bring awareness to this fact. By trusting this man in any way shape or form without a contract or rules and terms without any handshake agreement means that you in fact take full responsibility for any mishap, breakdown, collapse, failure and missed target date...

High risk can most of the time equal high reward. i know i have made tons of bank on that site and i will continue to discern what is a good idea to invest in and what is not but i will always know that its my choice to go there it is my choice to park coins there and i know if i lose them to him then it was my fault! And i am to blame, more so because i chose a high risk high reward way to make money! It is much the same for any of these sites but we trust them because we know their longterm net worth will always grow in this market and that will keep them somewhat accountable.

Sure, I even prefer trusting a total stranger than a proved scammer.

This is an obvious new RS sockpuppet account.

Hi ho realsolid buddy you are so obvious!!! learn to spell and talk better!

For the record i am not Realsolid.

And weirdly i am bewildered by the ability some of guys have to deflect simple and sensible logic. It is time to grow up and it is time to go and make some real money by doing something productive instead of something pointless and done many times by many poor fools before you.

Why not login under your main account instead of using this new account then? Why hide?

I don't think that's realsolid. Would you say that on every people that doesn't agree with your point of view ?

realsolid is an asshole but his exchange and his ideas are gold.

It is back up https://mcxnow.com/?r=jpmi1

Hi there, here is my referral link : https://mcxnow.com/?r=cryptocanard

Give me yours !

No of course not.

RS has a colorful history of sock puppets, longer than your arm.
Just read through his historic posts, particularly from the Solidcoin era, and you'll pick up patterns how he operates and thinks.
If people always think he's using sock puppets it's because he has done it in the passed. He's made his own bed, and will just have to lie in it on that one.


I don't think anybody disagrees that the exchange isn't fantastic. It's slick, fast and responsive. 1st class in my opinion.

BUT....

Is slick, fast and responsive the most important feature in an exchange? I say no.
The most important feature above all else is to have someone trustworthy in charge of the coins.

This is where is all goes wrong. I'm guessing RS is thinking time will solve this. I don't think it will.

Nah, sorry, mcxNow is done. This site scammed people out of a lot of money. Buyer beware.

It went back online few hours ago and :
1782 people online
18296 accounts


Until now, I haven't been scammed. On the contrary I made my best trades on this exchange but you're right RS have a shady past, that's why I never put too much money on the exchange. I mostly do quick trade and leave.

mcxNOW never scammed anyone out of their money.
The site did go down, but the coin were still accessible and you had the possibility to withdraw them.

The feeholders who sold after the shutdown effectively lost some money. But those who hold them did not. The price is going to 0.4 range, the IPO price. (and bitcoin was worth 200$ when IPO happened, so good gain nontheless)

lol

Yep he let everything blow over and is now getting another batch of fools to dupe.

Expect another fleecing in 3-6 months along with RS sob story of why he had to fuck everyone over but himself.

Oh yeah I forgot, what ever happened to the casino and the mandingo fighting game RS promised as a way to boost the price of his feeshares?

This.

Just remember if he gets too many emails he will close the site for a few days, then give incorrect informations on what he will do next.
