Do you have a rating anywhere?

For what it's worth, he was in the works of investing some coins with me but it did sound like (from PM conversation) that something came up recently.  I would lend him the coins but got burned the last time and still healing. Smiley
1002  Economy / Currency exchange / How long ago did you get a BTC related PayPal charge-back? on: November 08, 2011, 11:03:12 PM
I hear it all the time, but have not heard from anyone that has actually got a charge-back using personal gift (or any) option. It's always a friend of someone they knew or heard about.

The term "gift" used in the financial world has always meant non-reversible, does PayPal have access above the laws?

Anyway, let me know.

Thanks

When I attempted to contact him (Are you going to be able to repay the loan?) in a channel on IRC he responded with (Huh?) and left. He has many PM's from me and was active less than a month ago.  Scammer tag is in order I believe.
1004  Economy / Lending / Re: Loan Request on: November 08, 2011, 10:19:32 PM
Not to raise false hope, but have faith, he'll come back..

He sold me bitcoins about a month ago through paypal. 

I had no issues, he was worried I would scam him because he was late paying a loan once with IBB. It was rather silly, But I think hes just aloof, and will surface soon.  Smiley



Yea, those were mine.  Smiley

Yea, I'm not speaking for ATI or whatever I just know the limit is suppose to be limited by the software (drivers) access to the hardware.  But I don't even know enough about the bit by bit issues to know that I don't know. Smiley

If its the same issues as with windows its a hardware limit based on resources.

Just a bump for these guys.  I know these guys very well and can vouch for their professional and honest dealings in the BTC industry.  I know if I ever need a server they'll be the first place I go.

Good luck guys,

1010  Economy / Lending / Re: Loan Request on: November 08, 2011, 04:52:10 PM
did you get your loan back ?



Nope, tried contacting him by email, pm and IRC.  Nothing. Sad
1011  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: How much? on: November 08, 2011, 12:34:53 AM
We won't be a pool, but your payout would be based on accepted shares to our system.  So you'd set your own price for renting out your miners for "other work". When your miners aren't being used for "other work" its mining at the pool you set on the site.  So I'm just trying to get a rough average on what miners are willing to sell their work (shares) for.


Wait if it is other work then collecting information on pricing in shares is dubious unless this other work will take exactly as long as Bitcoin double hash.

To start with its going to be bitcoin centered, but will grow to other markets.  Of course the pricing will change and ultimately be based on time but for the near future we are just looking just at the bitcoin market.

The user was not and wouldn't authenticate with their GPG key on IRC so in all fairness it could be another person using the name, though others on IRC seem to have the same consensus from dealing with him.

Stay safe out there.

EDIT: We have confirmed this is the same user matching their GPG key.

I think GLBSE makes it harder than it needs to be.  His current system works very well.

I did this with Pirate for quite a while and never had any issues whatsoever.  My interest payments were timely and I was always able to withdraw according to our terms.  I only quit using him because I liquidated a large percentage of my working capital.  I look forward to reinvesting with him.

Thanks

BTW, Thanks to all those that have invested with me thus far.  I have two transactions so far setup for this week and feel much better now that I don't have to go knocking on doors or waiting on the exchanges to clear my funds.  Much appreciated. Smiley

We have some big plans in the works and looking for an average.
1017  Bitcoin / Mining / How much? on: November 07, 2011, 09:46:57 PM
How much would you charge per "share" in BTC to rent out your mining rig?

The mining world is talked about in Mh or Gh but when it comes down to it, you are getting paid by the pools for each share you do.  So how much?

More to come...

1018  Economy / Currency exchange / Selling BTC > PPUSD/MoneyPak/Serve/WesternU (Trusted Forum or OTC Members Only) on: November 07, 2011, 08:41:44 PM
I'm offering an experimental service along with my other projects to make it easy for trusted members to buy BTC with PP, MoneyPak or Serve.

First off you must be forum or OTC trusted and not just a couple ratings.  There are also tiered limits based on transactions done between you and myself.  So even a highly trusted forum or OTC members would start with a max purchase of 100 BTC in a 90 day period if I've never worked with you in the past. The buying power will adjust as the trust between us grows.

I'll be constantly monitoring OTC ratings of my clients and make adjustments in their buying power and/or ratings if need be.  I believe in WoT and hope that this service will add additional trust to the WoT rating system.

The whole point is to make it easy for the truly "Good Members" to move move money around easily.

I know there are a lot of issues with PP and other methods, but I've yet to get burned and stick to some strict rules when dealing with people I don't know.  So, this is my experiment, enjoy.

PayPal - Current Rate:  MTGox Ask + 3%
MoneyPak - Current Rate:  MTGox Ask 1.5%
Western Union - Current Rate:  MTGox + .5%
Serve - Current Rate:  MTGox Ask + 1.5%

Lets see how it goes, ARRRRRRR

1019  Economy / Long-term offers / Re: Looking for lenders on: November 07, 2011, 05:03:35 PM
OP, how about a listing on GLBSE? It will be much easier to manage (it should be trivial for the storage plan) and at the same time allow lenders to put up much smaller amounts than 50 BTC. You probably already know how much you will need in storage, issue that amount of shares at 1 BTC/share (or double at 0.5 or... or...), and you just have to pay dividends (weekly?). You can even automatize the buy back if you put buy orders at 0.999. On-demand plan would be possible too.

Interesting, I looked at it a while back and thought it may work but had a couple issues that would make it harder to manage. I'll take another look at it and see.

Thanks
1020  Economy / Long-term offers / Re: Looking for lenders on: November 06, 2011, 09:30:32 PM
If you'll sign a message with your OTC private key I may be willing to lend you 50 BTC on the storage plan.

I would be happy to send you a signed message.
