Lets try to get more BJJ gyms and equipment resellers to get on board with Bitcoin.
I've been politely nagging Vulcan to let me buy their gis with Bitcoin.

We will take care of everything.

Please email me at roger @ bitcoinstore.com with all the details,  and I will get it sorted out right away.

I'm not sure how I could make our contact information any more clear.
There is even a phone number on the footer of every single page on the site.

Meanwhile, I just received a PM from Rassah and a Bitcoin vanity address has been hashed: 1THRF26KAsDDLh1JyWB5Hbm5mYgN6LwZt. I do not have access to the private key of this address. Currently, only Rassah does, and should be providing a copy to Roger Ver via a secure channel in the very near future.

I confirm I have a copy of the private key.

I'll keep it nice and safe.

Roger Ver is representing himself and his buddy Tihan. He didn't like the releasing of the code, because he wanted a piece of pie. Despite the pie actually being shit. But that doesn't matter when $$$. This is why Patrick is hesitant I think. I don't know the specifics, but the sentiments are clear.

Amir,  you are making things up.
I didn't like the releasing of the code because it resulted in another 40,000 BTC and $40,000 being stolen!
All I wanted was my 25,000 BTC back.

Had you and the Intersango team accepted the offer,  every single person except for myself,  and 3 others would have gotten %100 of their money back,  and this mess would have been an ancient memory in the history of Bitcoin.
153  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: The biggest thief in the Bitcoinica debacle? MtGox on: October 16, 2013, 04:43:09 AM
Would you be willing to fly directly to him, get the password, drop the lawsuit and manage the distribution of the coins personally? I think we should avoid lawyers and that guy in NZ if we can. Is this reasonable?

I'm willing to do this,  but ultimately,  I think someone who isn't a Bitcoinica creditor should be the one to decide the distribution of the coins.

Up until now, Patrick has refused to meet with me in person,  but someone using his return address has sent me strange / threatening letters in the mail:

154  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: The biggest thief in the Bitcoinica debacle? MtGox on: October 16, 2013, 04:20:38 AM
Based on the below conversation with Patrick Strateman / Phantomcircut, I'm happy to do whatever everyone thinks is best. 
I think it is clear that Patrick can't be trusted to do what he says though.

[10/1/13 3:14:55 AM] Patrick Strateman: Hello roger
[10/1/13 3:15:03 AM] Patrick Strateman: I have a simple question for you
[10/1/13 3:15:10 AM] Patrick Strateman: are you in the us or japan at the moment?
[10/1/13 3:19:47 AM] Patrick Strateman: It would be a very good idea to answer this simple question
[10/1/13 3:20:15 AM] Patrick Strateman: if i do not receive an answer within 24 hours i will have no choice but to take action
[10/1/13 3:20:58 AM] Roger Ver: What are you implying?
[10/1/13 3:23:04 AM] Roger Ver: Why have you been promsing to turn over the passwords to the liquidators,  but never actually fufilling your promise?
[10/1/13 3:24:45 AM] Patrick Strateman: I was, at a point, prepared to turn over the passwords to Mr McCullagh. However his statements regarding the specifics of how he wishes to receive the information left me with extreme reservations
[10/1/13 3:25:25 AM] Roger Ver: Can you tell me the details of what caused the reservations?
[10/1/13 3:25:47 AM] Patrick Strateman: He asked to receive them over email with no security precautions taken.
[10/1/13 3:26:02 AM] Patrick Strateman: I would have been remiss in providing them in such a manner
[10/1/13 3:26:22 AM] Patrick Strateman: For reasons which I assume are obvious
[10/1/13 3:26:32 AM] Roger Ver: I think I agree.   If he provides you with a PGP key,  you are still willing to send him the passwords?
[10/1/13 3:28:08 AM] Patrick Strateman: His attitude towards the passwords in question has made the handover -- even under otherwise secure conditions-- questionable.
[10/1/13 3:28:33 AM] Patrick Strateman: I remain only interested in a resolution to the current situation to the benefit of all parties.
[10/1/13 3:30:09 AM] Roger Ver: At the end of the day,  I don't think it is your problem if the liquidator screws up with password security, and Mark at MTGOX has told me that the accounts are locked down,  so even if someone does present the passwords,  it will take Mark's manual approval to release any funds.   So even sending the passwords via a plane text email would still likely be secure enough.
[10/1/13 3:30:47 AM] Roger Ver: If you have other ideas,  I am happy to hear them.
[10/1/13 3:34:47 AM] Patrick Strateman: Mr McCullagh made a remarkably similar statment as to the transfer of passwords.
[10/1/13 3:35:33 AM] Patrick Strateman: His suggestion that the use of "dropbox" is acceptable or reasonable or in the best interest of creditors is however entirely contradictory to the general sentiment.
[10/1/13 3:35:54 AM] Patrick Strateman: (If you're wonding yes he actually suggested that the credentials be relayed via DropBox(tm))
[10/1/13 3:36:44 AM] Patrick Strateman: At this point I cannot within reason produce credentials to a NZ liquidator whom I have serisous misgivings about while being sued under US law.
[10/1/13 3:36:59 AM] Patrick Strateman: I once again assume you can understand the dilema I face.
[10/1/13 3:38:00 AM] Roger Ver: If I were in your shoes,  I would send him the passwords by whatever insecure method he wants,  and be done with it.  I've already told you we will drop the law suit as soon as you turn over the passwords to the liquidator.
[10/1/13 3:38:23 AM] Roger Ver: If you refuse,  it just wastes more time and money for everyone involved.
[10/1/13 3:39:04 AM] Patrick Strateman: But can you force jesse powell to comply with those terms? You yourself implied that this was entirely his doing.
[10/1/13 3:39:35 AM] Patrick Strateman: excuse me there is a typo let me fix that
[10/1/13 3:40:22 AM] Roger Ver: I'm 99% sure the other parties will agree to drop the lawsuit as well once you turn over the passwords.  They told me previously that is all they want as well.
[10/1/13 3:41:22 AM] Roger Ver: You could also Fedex the liqudator a USB drive with the passwords in a truecrypt container,  and then email him the password after he confirms reciept.   That would be a bit more secure than email alone.
[10/1/13 3:41:43 AM] Patrick Strateman: Unfortunately for both you and me I have serious misgivings about mr powells statements given that he has now employed council who knowingly is committing perjury.
[10/1/13 3:42:02 AM] Roger Ver: Can you explain what you mean by that?
[10/1/13 3:42:26 AM] Patrick Strateman: Every case management statement has denied that Bitcoinica LP is in bankruptcy
[10/1/13 3:42:47 AM] Patrick Strateman: those statements are not only false but hilariously provably false
[10/1/13 3:42:59 AM] Patrick Strateman: I wish to seek a resolution
[10/1/13 3:43:06 AM] Patrick Strateman: but this is not the way towards that
[10/1/13 3:43:29 AM] Patrick Strateman: I would be open and willing to a settlement conference between yourself and tihan
[10/1/13 3:43:35 AM] Patrick Strateman: jesse need not attend
[10/1/13 3:44:06 AM] Patrick Strateman: i cannot speak for tihan so i do not know if he would be willing
[10/1/13 3:44:08 AM] Roger Ver: I'm not a lawyer,  so I don't have a legal opinion in regards to that,  but I am sure the lawyer is not intentionaly commiting purgery and risking his law licence over this case.
[10/1/13 3:44:42 AM] Roger Ver: I think the settlement offer hasn't changed.  Just turn over the passwords to the liquidator,  and the lawsuit will be dropped.
[10/1/13 3:45:35 AM] Roger Ver: If you would like,  I can check with the rest of the creditors and see if there is some other settlement they would like to see happen.  Ultimately,  only a portion of the funds belongs to me,  so input should be in proportion to the amount owed.
[10/1/13 3:47:19 AM] Roger Ver: By not turning over the passwords to the liquidator,  you have substantially run up the liquidation bill.  That will directly result in the creditors receiving less money back.
[10/1/13 3:47:42 AM] Patrick Strateman: Mr McCullagh took no action for over 6 months.
[10/1/13 3:47:50 AM] Roger Ver: I think everyone involved just wants to get their share of the money back,  and have the entire mess be over.
[10/1/13 3:48:00 AM] Patrick Strateman: the work was deligated to a non-partner who took minimal actions
[10/1/13 3:48:18 AM] Roger Ver: The liquidators have been asking for you to turn over the passwords for 6 months.
[10/1/13 3:48:24 AM] Patrick Strateman: My requirements of Mr McCullagh were reasonable and necessary
[10/1/13 3:48:27 AM] Roger Ver: Without the passwords,  there isn't anything they can do.
[10/1/13 3:48:43 AM] Patrick Strateman: only within the last few weeks has he come even close to meeting those requirements
[10/1/13 3:48:45 AM] Roger Ver: If he provides  you with a PGP key, will you send him the passwords?
[10/1/13 3:49:46 AM] Patrick Strateman: To say that the liquidators have been asking for the passwords for over 6 months is to be exceptionally disingenuous.
[10/1/13 3:49:57 AM] Roger Ver: Please explain.
[10/1/13 3:49:58 AM] Patrick Strateman: The accounts in question are held by third parties.
[10/1/13 3:50:07 AM] Patrick Strateman: Mr McCullagh was told this
[10/1/13 3:50:23 AM] Patrick Strateman: he did absolutely nothing to secure the companies assets
[10/1/13 3:50:36 AM] Patrick Strateman: let me say that again so im entirely sure you understand
[10/1/13 3:51:03 AM] Patrick Strateman: mr mccullagh the liquidator of bitcoinica lp took no action for over a 8 months to secure the assets of the company in liquidation
[10/1/13 3:51:11 AM] Patrick Strateman: none
[10/1/13 3:51:32 AM] Roger Ver: What do you mean by "secure the assets"?
[10/1/13 3:51:44 AM] Patrick Strateman: only now that the approximately 80,000 USD in assets held by Core Credit LTD has been exhausted is he taking action
[10/1/13 3:52:41 AM] Roger Ver: Should I be thanking you for that?
[10/1/13 3:53:17 AM] Roger Ver: Please list the specific things you want in order to turn over the passwords to the liquidator.
[10/1/13 3:54:48 AM] Patrick Strateman: Mr McCullagh's actions have harmed me more so than you or any of the other creditors
[10/1/13 3:55:15 AM] Patrick Strateman: I think we can both agree that I personally have the most to lose by the liquidation failing to come to completion.
[10/1/13 3:56:06 AM] Roger Ver: I dissagree.  The liqudiators spending money because of your delays hurts me,  and the rest of the creditors who have to pay for it.  It doesn't cost you anything. Please list the specific things you want in order to turn over the passwords to the liquidator.
[10/1/13 3:57:03 AM] Patrick Strateman: excuse me i have urgent business to attend to I will return as soon as reasonably possible
[10/1/13 3:59:40 AM] Patrick Strateman: As I am sure you're aware the cost of procedings in the US far exceeds liquidators fees as yet.
[10/1/13 4:01:14 AM] Roger Ver: When you are ready,  please list the specific things you want in order to turn over the passwords to the liquidator.
[10/1/13 4:02:23 AM] Patrick Strateman: As I said previously I am willing to enter into settlement negotiations with yourself and Tihan.
[10/1/13 4:02:49 AM] Roger Ver: Tihan and I get along great,  I am happy to talk with him any time.
[10/1/13 4:03:24 AM] Roger Ver: I'm going to relay this chat to the rest of the creditors to see what they want as well.  I hope you will chose to list what specific things you want in order to turn over the passwords to the liquidator.

what's the fastest shipping they provide?

Most domestic orders are delivered in 2 to 3 days.
Occasionally you can get things delivered overnight depending on the time of day you place your order and the shipping location.

International orders depend on the post office and country you are in.
158  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bitcoinstore and Coinbase? on: September 14, 2013, 07:58:55 AM
I actually requested to have the text changed to:


Bitcoinstore's policy is to price goods in USD while using a current exchange rate. Because hosted wallets often don't immediately broadcast transactions, we highly recommend not using hosted wallets to pay for orders since there is a high likelihood their transaction broadcast delays will cause unnecessary disruption for both us and you.  Examples of hosted wallets NOT to use for this kind of payment are www.mtgox.com www.bitstamp.net and www.coinbase.com
Bitcoinstore.com recommends our users use the bitcoin wallets from www.blockchain.info/wallet or http://electrum.org/


Please feel free to add any additional critiques.

The Bitstamp guys are %100 trustworthy,  and were present at the San Jose Bitcoin conference.
I've done lots of business with them and everything goes smoothly every time.

5 stars for Bitstamp.net
160  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bitcoinstore and Coinbase? on: September 14, 2013, 05:35:51 AM
Previously, Coinbase was taking days before actually broadcasting the transactions to the network,  and it was causing a huge amount of trouble tracking down bitcoins that were sent so late, for orders that had long since expired.

Bitcoinstore.com loves the guys at coinbase and supports what they are doing.
This page will be updated ASAP.
