I have a strong feeling Satoshi has an important announcement to make.
And what perfect timing it will be, given the events of the past 3 weeks which have all but [coincidentally] destroyed what was left of Bitcoin's image.
Right on cue!
I am beginning to think that they identified the *wrong* guy. |

“I am no longer involved in that and I cannot discuss it”
I find the second half of the sentence to be extremely odd. He either misspoke or the reporter heard him incorrectly. |

Link to article here http://bigstory.ap.org/article/ap-exclusive-man-denies-hes-bitcoin-founder---- LOS ANGELES (AP) — The man Newsweek claims is the founder of Bitcoin denies he had anything to do with the digital currency. In an exclusive two-hour interview with The Associated Press Dorian S. Nakamoto, 64, said he had never heard of Bitcoin until his son told him he had been contacted by a reporter three weeks ago. Reached at his home in Temple City, Calif., Nakamoto acknowledged that many of the details in Newsweek's report are correct, including that he once worked for a defense contractor. But he strongly disputes the magazine's assertion that he is "the face behind Bitcoin." Since Bitcoin's birth in 2009, the currency's creator has remained a mystery. The person —or people— behind its founding have been known only as "Satoshi Nakamoto," which many observers believed to be a pseudonym. Looking more likely that they have the wrong guy! My expectation is someone in his late 30's or 40's, based on the choice of the programming language and the style with which is programmed. |

Just from a glance, those 4u miners look to have good ventilation (3x fans) and overall build quality look good. Just saying, comparatively to AMT's case. Space for 2 PSUs is a plus.
Wonder if they are legit?
Are you brain dead? |

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_BITCOIN_FOUNDER_DENIALThe kind of C++ used in Bitcoin is one that is around 10 years old. So could Dorian have picked up C++ when he was in his mid 50's? The age of the Dorian doesn't seem to align with reality. Normally you can get a good gauge of a programmers age by the kind of programming language and style he uses. Satoshi Nakamoto is likely in his 40's. Does Dorian have any sons and daughters? Could it be one of them?

I am tired of your unconstructive B.S. If they don't ship, take them to court... that simple. A lot of the stuff you talk about isn't actionable information.
Yeah, it's called looking out for future investors that might get ripped off like the people in this thread. I doubt you even care about others though. It's funny, this: coming from you. You've been supporting AMT the whole time, and now look where we are. You're just sour grapes because they didn't come through and support you're fucked up logic of trusting EVERYONE on the internet without good reason. All you've been doing is trying to hawk your pre-orders since 50 pages back. I don't feel bad for you one bit. You're self interest has been very apparent this whole thread. All the garbage that you've been talking about has been entirely useless. I don't recall one post of yours that was helpful in any manner. And where is your helpful information? "Take it to small claims court?" Gee thanks. We would've never figured that one out. You must have a law degree. We'll see. At the end of the day we'll know whether you've actually helped anyone here, other than AMT: since you've already done your part to rouse up more orders for them and convince everyone they are coming through. So far (and unfortunately) you've been wrong about everything: Accept it. What I am telling you is that your claims about a 'scam' is not actionable. Sending someone to court is. So I was never worried about my investments here because I was on the right side of the law. |

Ok... here are the instructions on taking AMT to court:
You may file with a District Justice if you
have a complaint against a person or a store
and wish to recover money totaling less than
$8,000. This limit excludes the cost of the suit
itself; if you win you are entitled to
reimbursement for court cost.
SELECTING DISTRICT COURT
For assistance in finding the correct court, you
can call (610) 565-6990 or (610) 891-4865.
file a complaint on a form, which
you can obtain at the District Court office.
Your name and address.
Business name and address.
Amount for which you are suing.
A short statement of why you believe you
are entitled to the money. Be sure to
provide enough information so that the
person you are suing knows why they are
being sued.
Suits from $4001.00 to $8000.00 – $117.50
Once you have filed the complaint you will
receive a hearing date in the mail. The date
must be between 10 and 60 days from the
date you filed. The law requires that before
the hearing, the other party must receive a
copy of your complaint. This can be done in
two ways:
1. Request that the complaint be sent by
certified mail.
2. Request that a Constable hand deliver
the complaint. There is an additional charge,
but if you win, these costs can be reimbursed.
In short, have the police deliver the complaint.

Very curious: if you bought with BTC and a refund is issued via BTC: will it be for the same amount?
Basically: If you bought for 5 BTC in November/December: and in April, you get your 5 BTC refund: you've basically lost money based on the value of BTC.
As I recall, people bought in while BTC value was high: it's dropped quite a bit since then.
Anyone else have some insight on this possibility?
The invoice is quotes in USD. BTC just happens to be the wire mechanism and has got nothing to do with the actual amount. How old are you anyway? |

do you know what got their attention? my ripoffreport post. when you google amt miners for some reason that website pops up first page. they do not want the bad publicity. here is the thing... josh is trying to make me sound like im being unreasonable. all i wanted was an update! i just wanted Josh to tell me when my miner would be coming and why it was so damn late. he would NOT do it. I have exchanged a LOT of emails with AMT today. They also did not like the idea of me filing a complaint with the FTC.
Let me tell you what AMT thinks. AMT believes we are dumb consumers who made purchases and now find ourselves in some predicament where we need the cash. Josh thinks I need the money because I have some kind of emergency. This could not be farther from the truth. At no point has it ever crossed AMT's mind that someone who gave them $6000 and never heard back from them might be concerned. No No... the dumb people out there made purchases they couldn't afford. AMT is doing nothing wrong. They are working their butts off only to please us. We should be thankful for all the hard work AMT is bestowing on us. I asked Josh if he looked down on everyone or just the people he takes money from.
These guys are so far detached from reality its disturbing. Alyssa sent me an email saying they have issued me a refund.
You know what pissed me off the most today? Josh told me i should "have a heart" when it comes to the reputation of his company. You know what that tells me? He has learned nothing from the months of begging for information I have done. It means nothing to AMT how much stress he has created for others. All he can think about is himself and/or his reputation. Did it ever cross that mind of his that "GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE ALWAYS PAYS OUT IN THE END". he didnt issue (supposedly) me a refund because he felt it was the right thing to do. He is giving me a refund to shut me up. what is wrong with AMT? How could someone so fucking stupid be running this company? How could there be more than 1 idiot responsible for the financial well being of AMT miners? These guys will not make it to the end of the year. This attitude of theirs will show itself in the quality of product they put out. Im just glad I am not getting a miner because I'm afraid of all the trouble i would have trying to get it to run. these guys do not care about you at all - not one bit. i'm done man... put a fork in me.
You might be done, but I assure you: if the members here aren't taken care of, then we will make sure AMT goes under. As for Joshua Zipkin: we need to make sure he's discredited on the internet completely. HE IS AMT; as much as he'd love you to believe there are all these other 'founders'. I am going to make sure that JOSHUA ZIPKIN results SCAM when it comes to GOOGLE SEARCH. I am tired of your unconstructive B.S. If they don't ship, take them to court... that simple. A lot of the stuff you talk about isn't actionable information. |

PA $12,000 limit... so if you bought 2 miners... you can go to small claims court!! This looks like where you file: Magisterial District Court 32-1-25 525 West Chester Pike, Suites 103 & 105 Havertown, PA, 19083 Phone: (610)449-8250 Look here for more details: http://www.co.delaware.pa.us/consumeraffairs/faqconsumer.htmlMay I make a complaint against a business?
Letter from Director regarding complaints
Generally, a person may file a complaint with Consumer Affairs against a particular business. To file a complaint, a person must fill out a complaint form* and include with that form copies of all documentation relating to the complaint. The complaint form complete with documentation must be sent to the Consumer Affairs Office at:
County of Delaware
Office of Consumer Affairs
Government Center Building
201 West Front Street
Media, PA 19063
Do Not send the complaint (or a copy of the complaint) directly to the business. Our office will arrange for the business to be provided a copy of the complaint.
Also, it is Strongly Recommended that before you fill out the complaint form and send it to Consumer Affairs, you contact us at (610) 891-4865 to register your complaint. There are some types of cases Consumer Affairs is not responsible for (e.g. cases already in court), and others might need to be referenced to other agencies. By calling Consumer Affairs, our staff can verify that you indeed have a complaint that can be mediated through our office or, if you do not have such a complaint, a staff member may be able to reference you to another agency that can help you. If you do not call before registering your complaint, and if our office cannot provide you with assistance, you may lose valuable time completing inappropriate forms, which could delay final resolution of your complaint.
How long does a complaint take to be resolved?
Unfortunately, we cannot provide a time frame in which your complaint will be settled. Generally, after the initial complaint has been filed, a business has ten days (including weekends but excluding holidays) to respond. After the initial response, our office attempts to mediate an amicable solution. However, how quickly a complaint gets resolved depends upon many factors including how complete documentation of the complaint is, the cooperation of the business, and the amount of complaints filed in our office. Please be assured we will handle your complaint as quickly and efficiently as possible.
What happens if a business refuses to cooperate or what happens if a business does not offer an agreeable settlement?
If a business refuses to cooperate or if an amicable solution is not reached, generally the person who files the complaint must pursue the matter in court (usually Small Claims Court). One of the purposes of Consumer Affairs is to reduce the burden on the Courts through non-binding mediation, and therefore, Consumer Affairs treats lawsuits as a last resort for the consumer. If a case goes to court, Consumer Affairs provides both the consumer and the business with copies of records relating to our attempts at mediation, upon request.
In addition to the consumer pursuing a claim in court, if our office feels that consumer fraud may be involved, we will forward the file to the Delaware County District Attorney's Office and/or to the Attorney General of Pennsylvania. The District Attorney and/or Attorney General’s office will review the claim to see if it merits further investigation and prosecution.
I am not a resident of Delaware County. May I make a complaint against a business with your office?
In order to file a complaint with the Delaware County Office of Consumer Affairs, one of the two following conditions MUST be met:
The person filing the complaint resides in Delaware County; or
The business against which the complaint is filed must be located in Delaware County.
I represent a business, and I recently had a consumer who failed to uphold his part of the contract (or pay for services rendered, etc). May a business file a complaint against a consumer?
No. Consumer Affairs only processes consumer complaints against businesses. Businesses need to pursue their claims either in court or, if criminal activity is involved (e.g. theft of services), they should contact the appropriate local, state, or federal law enforcement agency.
If you don't get your refund, send them to small claims court! How to Sue: http://www.co.delaware.pa.us/consumeraffairs/HOWTOSUEnew.PDF |

Whoever he is - I sure hope he'e encrypted and backed up his wallet.
I hope he has a backup identity and money for facial surgery... he lives in great threat now regardless if he is the real Satoshi or not. No he doesn't this is ridiculous bullshit people saying this. Does Bill Gates live in great threat? How about Warren Buffet? Dude's a billionaire so he can easily afford to move to a safe, gated community where no one will touch him. I agree.... there are plenty of really wealthy people who live with 'the rest of us'. Not an issue in U.S.A. |

I think I may have figured out who the 'Twin' is:  Gavin Andresen Chief Scientist of Bitcoin Foundation iXcoin is an experiment to see what happens when mining subsidy is removed. Here is your evidence: https://bitcoinfoundation.org/blog/?p=204 |

I'm having all kinds of people calling me asking me why the CEO or President of Bitcoin committed suicide.
Last week lots of people called me telling me they heard Bitcoin was dead or Bankrupt.
So in 2 weeks, the masses were led to believe that Bitcoin died or went bankrupt and that its leader committed suicide.
Is the media doing this on purpose?
And finally, talk about a perfect set-up, a perfect entry point for Bitcoin's twin brother.
Pretty amazing development if you think about it. I knew something big [and imminent] was gonna happen to favor iXcoin but I wasn't sure what. This, I did not see coming.
Did you hear the news that they figured out the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto ? |

and the production I have confirmed with PNC. That, and they said my order isn't due to be shipped until the end of this month. (I believe that was my expected ship-estimate.)
How did you get this confirmation from PNC? Is there a contact number? Can you confirm that PNC is actually manufacturing AMT boards? I did, and I have... The number is on the website, but they don't need hundreds of calls. You can just look at the logo on the boards they stamped on. But if you must, then call. (Gotta be a little deceitful about how you "obtain that information." That is all I will say about that.  ) I posted the information you need to know, two or three posts back. Last night. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304605.msg5540857#msg5540857That was my contribution to the detective-work. Nice solid company by the way... "PNC INC." (Not sure if they are doing just the PCB design or all the actual SMT assembly for them. But they do have that extra ability. Wasn't going to blow my cover. I got what I wanted to hear, and ran.) P.S. They are not in Bulgaria. That is quite good detective work! Much better than a lot of clowns in this thread. Just to be clear, you had some confirmation that they indeed did the PCB design for AMT? Years ago I used to build digital logic boards, back then it was quite simple to do. So I'm not really sure what the complication would be with these Coincraft A1 chips. I know the signalling outside the chip isn't that fast so I'm not sure why the PCB would be difficult to manufacture. |

I've always wondered how Cryptsy picked its coins, after seeing such oddball coins listed there.
I guess it's simply bribery? Although Cryptsy did it in a smart way, instead of a developer paying to get listed, they get everyone to pay to get a coin listed.
Same with other exchanges too?
Logically one would think the best coins only would get listed, but I guess that's never been the case.
Well, at least now it is crystal clear how to get into Cryptsy. Before it was kind of a like a behind the scenes deal. |
