The Shady History of Brock Pie[rce] <I added the [rec] part>The Shady History of Brock Pierce
You may have heard whisperings in the last few weeks about one of the “rising stars” in the cryptocurrency kingdom. This “rising star” is a “man” with money but without morality. This “man” was recently elected to the Bitcoin Foundation’s Board of Director’s Industry Seat. Let me be ultimately clear at this point. This “man” is a cancer to our community and we must dethrone him sooner rather than later. That Brock Pierce was able to be elected to The Bitcoin Foundation should be nothing short of a wake-up call for us all. The Bitcoin Foundation and the Bitcoin community in general need to disassociate from this cancer before it metastasizes. The movement has already begun (
https://bitcoinfoundation.org/forum/index.php?/topic/951-post-your-bitcoin-foundation-resignations-here/).
Brock Pierce was born into a life without a childhood. He first started acting as a toddler and by the time he was a teenager he had already starred in many films and was beloved in Hollywood. On the coattails of his early success, Brock Pierce became involved with Marc Collins-Rector and Chad Shackley in the 1990s and together they founded the Digital Entertainment Network [DEN]. At the tender age of 17, Brock Pierce had landed a job at the dot-com bubble of its time earning $250,000 a year and owning 1% of the stock in the company that would eventually try to IPO to the tune of $75 million.
- DEN of Evil
DEN attracted investors with the promise of video streamed through the internet, and web series that would be delivered on this platform. They were attempting to build something akin to YouTube, but from the entirely wrong direction and more importantly, at the wrong time. Technology was not yet ready for DEN. However, the sordid and hedonistic social life of West Hollywood was absolutely ready for DEN. DEN has since become known as one of the largest internet “flameouts” in history.
In the 1990s, the mansion occupied by the DEN executives was a well known party spot. DEN planned to IPO at the end of 1999; however, before the IPO could be opened, the truth about DEN’s founders started to come to light (
http://web.archive.org/web/20080418073324/http://www.radaronline.com/from-the-magazine/2007/11/den_chads_world_marc_collins_rector_1-print.php):
>A $75 million IPO was planned for October 1999, but days before it was filed, a young man from New Jersey, identified in court filings as Jake W., served papers for a lawsuit claiming he'd been molested by Collins-Rector for three years, beginning in 1993 when he was just 13. Collins-Rector quickly paid a settlement, and his attorney fired back in the press, calling the suit "classic IPO blackmail" and describing the settlement as "a token payment to save the company."
In the same way he'd met Chad, Collins-Rector had connected with Jake via an Internet bulletin board. The executive offered the boy a job at his pre-DEN venture, Concentric, and Jake began working from home for $10 an hour. Soon, though, Collins-Rector decided he needed Jake at the Michigan office and flew him out from New Jersey, lodging him in a spare bedroom. During the visit, according to the lawsuit, Marc repeatedly asked, "Do you trust me?" with his hand roaming across the boy's body. Then he performed fellatio on him.
With the FBI investigating Jake's allegations and investors panicking, all three founders immediately quit their executive posts (retaining substantial stock positions), leaving DEN's new chairman, Howard Ritts, in charge of the company.
Within months, all three of the company's founders had been hit with a flurry of civil lawsuits. Boys who had been paid for vague jobs with the company under the condition that they agree to attend parties at the M&C estate began telling stories of sexual abuse at the hands of Collins-Rector, Shackley, and Pierce, as well as other highly placed Hollywood figures.
One of the alleged victims was identified as Mike E. The slim, dark-haired 14-year-old, who attended a small private high school in the Valley, befriended Chad's brother Scott, who led him to DEN. Mike had an interest in acting, so when Collins-Rector outlined the possibilities for stardom offered by the site, the boy began spending time at the mansion, where there was one key rule. He recalls: "If you were going to sleep over, you had to get into either the pool or the hot tub—and you had to be naked to do so." In an exclusive interview, Mike E. confirms having been forced to engage in anal and oral intercourse with Collins-Rector, Shackley, and Pierce while under the influence of drugs that he claims were fed to him without his knowledge. At the same time, he says, Collins-Rector and Shackley were pushing him to become a legally emancipated minor. Although Ronald Palmieri, Collins-Rector's lawyer at the time, dismisses the allegations, saying, "There was never any such discussion that I know of," Radar has obtained correspondence sent by Shackley to Palmieri's law office requesting an update on the status of Mike E.'s emancipation filing.
Meanwhile, in addition to paying the boy $1,000 a week, Collins-Rector dangled a starring role in a DEN series called The Royal Standard, which was being developed by Randal Kleiser, the director of Grease and The Blue Lagoon.
Another alleged victim, Daniel, tells a similar story. After being subjected to sexual abuse at M&C, he wrote a suicide note: "I can't stop crying! Please God help me. I can't go on. I let them use me as a sex tool. I let those assholes do all those terrible things to me. Goodbye." His brother found the note and alerted their parents before Daniel made any attempt on his life.
Another young man who frequented the estate, Alex B., was not a minor at the time, but also eventually became a plaintiff against the men. Alex claims he was threatened with physical harm, often after being given drugs. At one point, Alex secretly shot a video inside the M&C estate to document what was going on. In a jittery scene, he removes a canvas bag from a closet and shows off a massive stash of drugs in amber vials—Percocet, Vicodin, Xanax, Valium, marijuana, and ecstasy among them.
Another former DEN employee tells of receiving and rejecting numerous sexual advances at the M&C mansion—until one evening when he was surreptitiously drugged and woke up nude in Collins-Rector's bed, with Collins-Rector asleep beside him.
In addition to the money and promises of stardom, Collins-Rector allegedly used physical threats to keep the boys in line. One tactic, according to several victims, was to brandish a gun. "Do you know what I can do with this?" he would say, leveling the barrel at them, "and get away with it?" He also threatened the lives of their families. On one occasion, Alex recalls, Collins-Rector asked a bodyguard to stand in the room wearing earmuffs. The DEN chairman told Alex the guard would choke him if he didn't consent to sex. (Radar tracked down the guard in question, who had gone on to do security work for a big Hollywood talent agency. He confirmed the basics of the boy's account and seemed disgusted by the memory. "Marc told me to put on the earmuffs and stand in the room facing him and Alex," he says. "I was there for about two hours, but that is all I want to say about what happened.")<
By 2000, when Jake’s New Jersey lawsuit was joined by several filed in California, the trio of DEN co-founders had fled the country after rumors started circulating that warrants would soon be issued for their arrest. Additional rumors at the time placed the DEN trio in various parts of the world while DEN itself was left to die a slow death in America. By the time DEN was dissolved, its assets were auctioned off for $105,000. Interestingly enough, some of the assets that DEN had listed were planned lawsuits against Brock Pierce which claimed that he had been knowingly using illegally obtained copyrighted software at DEN. With the defendants intentionally unavailable, the trio of victims was award a default judgement of $4.5 million.
More recently, DEN parties have been referenced once again by Michael Egan in his most recent lawsuit against Bryan Singer, an academy award winning movie director who has dropped out of the public eye to deal with these allegations. The lawsuit filed against Byran Singer by Michael Egan’s lawyer can be found here (
http://www.thewrap.com/bryan-singer-underage-sexual-abuse-lawsuit-court-documents). The same vivid description of events was available in the court documents filed against Brock Pierce; however, he has since had his lawyers seal and destroy every available copy of anything that claims Brock Pierce was involved in any way.
- Found in Spain
Sometime in 2000, Collins-Rector, Shackley, and Pierce ended up in a villa in Spain. They started playing Everquest together and it is there that Pierce latched onto his next business idea. The trio joined one of the most notorious guilds in the history of MMORPGs where they monopolized and monetized key economic aspects of the game for personal profit. In 2002, a tip led Spanish authorities to the villa in Spain occupied by the three DEN co-founders. At this location they uncovered jewels, weapons, and “enormous amounts of child porn” (
https://web.archive.org/web/20051217055703/http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/2120349/dotcom-founders-spanish-jail). Collins-Rector spent the next two years in Spanish jail, until he was extradited to the United States where he plead guilty to mysteriously lessened criminal charges. He eventually fled the US and is currently residing in England with a barely legal South Asian man.
Pierce and Shackley were only held for 1 month in Spanish prison and then were let go. Once Pierce returned to America, he managed to get Daniel and Alex to drop their cases entirely without monetary settlement. However, in the case of Michael Egan, he reached an undisclosed monetary settlement.
- IGE
If you haven’t heard of it, Real Money Trading [RMT] is the selling of virtual currencies and items (Think “The Grandfather Sword”) in blatant disregard of most games’ terms of service. The technique, and industry, were largely pioneered by the work of Brock Pierce and his associates at Internet Gaming Entertainment [IGE]. Azzor.com has a fairly comprehensive write up of IGE and RMT’s infamous history in the world of MMORPGs and their respective forums (
http://www.azzor.com/article/2006/05/general-news/truth-about-ige-and-gold-industry). Though Pierce officially condemned suppliers that utilize bots or exploits to supply virtual commodities his company still maintained supply connections with known hackers while officially supporting those overseas individuals and organizations that provided virtual items for sale solely on the sweat of cheap labor. Additionally, IGE’s standard operating procedure was to purchase entire gaming forum communities and spam them with ads. Suffice to say, Brock Pierce’s business sense is the embodiment of wayward morality.
IGE itself is headquartered in Hong Kong, where it was able to avoid direct regulatory pressures from the United States and China. However, when it was first started in 2001, Brock Pierce was working from Spain. Pierce and Debonneville first met in the virtual world of Everquest in the year 2000. In November 2001, Debonneville flew to Spain to meet with Pierce, that is when IGE was formed. Pierce promised Debonneville certain percentages of profits and stocks should IGE succeed. However, once IGE was a multi-million dollar success [valued at $220 million by Goldman Sachs at one point] the promises never materialized and by 2007, Debonneville was suing Pierce for his promised piece of IGE’s steaming hot pie.
- Debonneville Vs. Pierce
Though the lawsuit was filed on June 11th, 2007, it wasn’t until January of 2008 that Pierce and Debonneville’s spat spilled into the public’s sight. A complaint from a lawsuit between Debonneville, IGE’s cofounder, and Brock Pierce was published on MMOCitizen.com, a website that was launched to bring a separate class-action lawsuit against IGE. MMOCitizen published the complaint from the Debonneville Vs. Pierce case and many blogs and news sites picked up on it, such as Virtually Blind (
http://virtuallyblind.com/2008/01/30/ige-pierce-debonneville-complaint). Second to the scene was none other than Brock Pierce’s lawyers, one Michael Hayes, who hurried into action. Hayes sent a letter to every news and blogsite that reported on the document (
http://virtuallyblind.com/files/Hayes_to_Duranske_Feb_14.pdf) informing them that the complaint had since been amended and certain parts of it sealed. As a result, VB and other online media sources were forced to edit and remove the sealed portions of the Debonneville complaint.
VB’s writer noted this peculiarity about the sealing order:
>[The complaint was filed June 11, 2007, and was sealed over three months later, on September 17, 2007. Until that time it had been publicly available. It was sealed with one sentence near the end of a "proposed order" granting a motion to strike certain portions of the complaint. The order was apparently written by attorneys for Brock Pierce and presented to the judge, who scratched out the word "proposed" and signed the order without other modification. Although "proposed orders" are common in many situations, one does not typically request that documents be sealed by appending the request to another order in the Central District of California. This is at least partly because appending a request to seal to another order does not create a docket entry of an "Order to Seal" that the Clerk, journalists, and other interested parties can easily reference.]<
Nobody knows if the judge even referenced Debonneville’s complaint to see which parts Pierce was having stricken from the public record. Pierce had originally planned to sue Debonneville for defamation in relation to the now-stricken portions of the original June 2007 complaint. However, in April 2008, long before their scheduled May court date, Debonneville and Pierce announced a confidential agreement to end the court case which involved money (damages) paid from Pierce to Debonneville.
In the weeks following the confidential agreement, Debonneville had to go to court several more times before he received his payment. During this period, Debonneville was also granted a temporary restraining order against Brock Pierce which revealed the lengths that Pierce was willing to go to avoid paying Debonneville back, despite having given his word (
http://virtuallyblind.com/2008/04/30/pierce-tro-settlement/).
>Specifically, the TRO states that the court, after reviewing the record, restrains Pierce from “contacting any bank for Debonneville or his attorneys for purposes of reversing any payment Pierce made to Debonneville under the terms of the parties’ settlement agreement in this lawsuit [...], attempting to reverse any payment made to Debonneville or his attorneys [...], taking any action to sell, assign, [or] transfer [...] any asset owned directly or indirectly by Pierce, unless such action is performed solely to raise funds to be paid to Debonneville, [or] filing any suit relating to the settlement, Debonneville or his attorneys, other than a personal bankruptcy suit.”
The court found that “unless Pierce … is immediately restrained from [these] acts, Pierce will commit these acts, thus causing immediate and irreparable injury to Debonneville.” The harm would be irreparable, the court said, because the acts “would be part of a wrongful scheme by Pierce, already commenced, to attempt to illegally recover settlement payments already paid to Debonneville or to avoid paying Pierce’s settlement obligations.”<
At the May 5th hearing to decide whether or not to extend the restraining order, it was revealed that Pierce had paid the promised sum of money and the entire proceedings finally drew to a close.
I haven’t even gotten to the original content of Debonneville’s complaint that Pierce worked so hard to have stricken from all public records. As this is the internet, the sealed text is still available despite Pierce’s best efforts.
>After living and working in Spain for a few months, Debonneville observed that Rector and Pierce had a very close relationship, one that did not seem normal between a 40-year old man and a 20-year old young man…
…Apparently, there were a multitude of charges related to the prior operation of a company specifying that Pierce, Rector, and Shackley had stolen money from the company and wasted corporate assets for things like the purchase of illicit drugs, living a lavish lifestyle, and criminal allegations of transporting a minor across state lines for sexual purposes. Upon learning this information, Debonneville questioned Pierce regarding the allegations, and Pierce stated that the claims were false and contrived as a setup by some competitors and former employees…<
The statement from Debonneville reveals that Brock Pierce and Marc Collins-Rector were unusually close. The complaint also alleged that Brock Pierce misappropriated stock and about $200,000 of IGE’s money in order to pay the settlements in the civil cases against Pierce and Collins-Rector. Additionally, Debonneville revealed that Pierce made business decisions with Yantis behind Debonneville’s back. Specifically, Pierce knowingly agreed to Yantis’s plan to sell duped and exploited virtual currency and items to MMORPG players, something that IGE had taken a very public and vocal stand against in the months before its merger with Yantis.
- Ambitions As A Bitcoiner
In 2010, Pierce joined Titan Gaming’s board of directors. Eventually, Titan Gaming became Playsino, a failed gaming platform that has attracted a lot of investors but no results. In April of 2012 Titan Gaming became Playsino with Pierce as CEO and a reported $1.5m round of investments. Though Playsino is still an ongoing venture and no legal action has occurred yet, reports of Pierce’s wayward business practices are still coming to light. Playsino has been a hemorrhaging money for the last year and many of its developers are currently working for reduced or non-existent salaries. Pierce has long since shifted his attention away from MMORPGs and Facebook games to real-life games.
According to his AngelList Investor Profile, Brock Pierce currently sits on the boards of KnCMiner.cn, Robocoin Asia, GoCoin, and ExpressCoin. He is also the founder of Bitropolis, a Bitcoin startup incubator based out of Santa Monica that is currently home to several Bitcoin startups, some of them which are still in stealth mode.
He calls himself the “Bitcoin Godfather.” A term first used by Brock Pierce’s long-time PR company, MarketWired. Here is the term being used by everyone’s favorite investigative “journalist” Two Bit Idiot (
http://two-bit-idiot.tumblr.com/post/70312056859/weve-officially-lost-china-a-potential-bitcoin).
Let’s be clear here: Brock Pierce considers his previous work with IGE to have been a positive contribution to virtual currencies as a whole and he holds the delusion that his work in the field was instrumental to paving the way for Bitcoin. He wishes to be “The Godfather of Bitcoin”... It means what you think it means, especially in Hollywood.
Brock Pierce recently explained that KnCMiner.cn’s involvement with KnCMiner is limited. However, as an industry insider for the last several decades, I see disgusting similarities between KnCMiner and DEN and IGE… Investor money is being collected and misappropriated to selfish ends, once again.
A little searching on whois.com often yields a proverbial gold mine. Search kncbank.com, kncwallet.info, or knchosting.com and you will find them to be owned by KnCMiner cofounder Samuel Cole. The mentioned trio is just a glimpse at an ambitious list, numbering in the scores, of domains currently being squatted on by KnCMiner.
A list of an entrepreneur’s domain names is a public roadmap to his expansion plans. Sam Cole suddenly got really ambitious starting in August of 2013, shortly after Brock Pierce started KnCMiner.cn and presumably high involvement in KnCMiner’s business decision making.
Pierce and other close associates of his have recently spearheaded the SAVE GOX campaign. They’ve come together with a plan to buy out the soon-to-be-liquidated Mt. Gox and revive it. The ridiculous nature of that campaign has largely already been realized by the larger Bitcoin community and as such won’t be discussed in this piece.
The culmination of Brock Pierce’s bid to become the Godfather of Bitcoin through his money and influence is his most recent (successful) grab for power in the form of the Bitcoin Foundation’s Board of Directors. Brock Pierce has now positioned himself to influence much more than he previously did.

In addition to the companies listed above, Brock Pierce is also a board member of the Mastercoin Foundation. He also works with various other startups and people in the Bitcoin sphere around the world that should not all the sullied by association in this piece. It is entirely possible that those parties were completely unaware of any of these allegations.
- Pierce’s version of the Events:
What kind of investigative journalist would I be if I didn’t include the opposing side of the story?
Brock Pierce’s only public comment, prior to 2014, on the DEN fiasco came in an interview with Wired writer Jullian Dibbell in 2008 (
http://archive.wired.com/gaming/virtualworlds/magazine/16-12/ff_ige_pierce). Then, he commented that it was simply a coincidence that “Spanish FBI” showed up to Collins-Rectors’ house on a day when Pierce was there having lunch:
>“DEN fell apart in 1999, when senior co-founder Marc Collins-Rector, 40 years old at the time, settled a lawsuit that accused him of sexually molesting a 13-year-old male employee. Other young men then filed similar suits against Collins-Rector, naming Pierce and 25-year-old DEN co-founder Chad Shackley as peripheral defendants. None of the three DEN founders could be located, and default judgments totaling $4.5 million were handed down.
Pierce says, he had no knowledge of the suits at the time, and when he finally showed up to contest them two years later, the judgments against him were dismissed. As for his police detention alongside Collins-Rector and Shackley in Spain in 2002 -- the dramatic centerpiece of post-DEN gossip -- that, too, was apparently a bum rap. Pierce says it was his bad luck to be lunching with his former business partners at their Spanish home when local cops swept in to arrest Collins-Rector on U.S. criminal charges, detaining everyone present, including the housekeeper, for reasons never fully explained.”<
Pierce’s claim that he had no knowledge of the lawsuits against him for the entirety of two years is dubious to say the least. Especially since he spent hours in front of internet-connected computers playing MMORPGs everyday during that time. Additionally, his claims that he was only visiting his “former” business partner for lunch at the time of his arrest by Spanish FBI are directly refuted by the portions of Debonneville’s complaint that Pierce worked so hard to cover up. Pierce did not “return” to America to contest, with his wallet, the $4.5 million he owed his victims until he was forcibly moved from Spain to the US following his 2002 arrest.
Since being elected to the Bitcoin Foundation’s Board of Director’s Industry Seat, Brock Pierce has responded to recent stirrings about his alleged past(
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHQuJR80mUY&feature=youtu.be):
>“None of it is true, and I feel very very bad for those people being sued, because i happen to know quite a bit about the person suing them, and I’m limited in what I’m able to say. But it's 15 year old as it relates to me, and it's been publically out there for ages and ages. None of it is true, none of my investors, none of my partners, none of my friends have an issue with it because they are reasonably intelligent people that have the ability to think for themselves.”<
In this more recent response to the “Brock Pierce controversy”, Pierce only refers to the particular instance of Michael Egan’s sexual abuse case with Bryan Singer, which his own name has been mentioned in relation to, multiple times. Brock Pierce is limited in what he is able to say because Brock Pierce has already reached a monetary settlement with Michael Egan over a decade ago. Pierce has also apparently claimed that Egan has admitted to throwing in Pierce’s name into the original lawsuit as a publicity stunt; obviously, this statement only came to light after Egan accepted Pierce’s money and settlement and such a statement may have even been part of the deal.
Most recently, in a Buzzfeed article published on 5/11/14 (
http://www.buzzfeed.com/nicolasmedinamora/brock-pierce-associate-of-embattled-x-men-director-joins-the), Pierce also attempted to defend himself… Instead he has dug his own hole that much deeper:
>In a statement, Pierce said that all but one of the plaintiffs dropped the cases against him “with no compensation of any kind,” and that the remaining one did not do so because his lawyer “would not let him drop” the case.
Pierce also told BuzzFeed over the phone that he finds the resurfacing of those allegations frustrating.
“It’s all old news,” he said. “The allegations that have been written about are in relation to a company that I co-founded when I was 17. They have been online since then, and anyone who wanted to read about them could have done so. And none of it is true, at least as far as it relates to me. I’m not even gay.”<
Well, “anyone who wanted to” was able to read the story as told by Brock Pierce, can only be found by digging through archive.org.
On the topic of any allegations from Michael Egan:
>Pierce called Egan “a pathological liar” and told BuzzFeed that he has charter flight records that prove that Singer and the other defendants were never in Hawaii with Egan, as the lawsuit alleges. He said that he could not immediately release those records.<
Pierce additionally claims that he didn’t even stay at the infamous DEN mansion all the time, that he maintained a separate residence in California for the duration of his stay in California before he fled the country in 2000. I don’t doubt the veracity of the latter part of that statement… Mr. and Mrs. Pierce were undoubtedly still keeping a room open for their underage teenage boy.
On the topic of Collins-Rector:
>Pierce told BuzzFeed that he hasn’t spoken with Collins-Rector in years, that the man is not involved in any of his businesses in any capacity, and that he does not know anything about his whereabouts.<
Various court documents show that IGE was incorporated in America by none other than Matt Rector, Marc Collins-Rector’s brother. Furthermore, when IGE first came to light, it listed an address in Marbella, Spain, the town where the trio was hiding out until they were found in 2002. However, given the revelations that Marc Collins-Rector has found a younger, handsomer boytoy than Brock Pierce, it is no surprise that they haven’t spoken in years. I might not even doubt that Pierce has changed his sexual preference after being abandoned by his long-time lover.
On the topic of Debonneville Vs. Pierce:
>“Alan’s lawyers wanted to make a very salacious complaint,” he told BuzzFeed. “They said, ‘Pay us, or we will file.’ I chose not to do so at the time because my insurance policy would cover a settlement.”<
Here, Pierce admits that his payment to Debonneville was covered by his insurance. Why then did the court find that “unless Pierce … is immediately restrained from [these] acts, Pierce will commit these acts, thus causing immediate and irreparable injury to Debonneville.” The harm would be irreparable, the court said, because the acts “would be part of a wrongful scheme by Pierce, already commenced, to attempt to illegally recover settlement payments already paid to Debonneville or to avoid paying Pierce’s settlement obligations.”
Why did the court grant Debonneville a restraining order against Pierce? What kind of man attempts to illegally recover settlement payments that were paid out by insurance?
What kind of allegedly heterosexual man spends endless nights with two older men, guns, and drugs? What kind of man coincidentally leaves the country for a 2 year vacation following the implosion of a multi-million dollar company and the announcement of a multi-million dollar lawsuit, which he claims to not have known about? What kind of man ruins the online lives of underage boys with RMT and the real lives of underage boys with rape?
The answer is simple: No man can do this… Only a cancer.
If you are interested in going deeper…
Phinneaus Gage, a long-time Bitcoin Forum member, has dug up a Facebook account that likely belongs to Brock Pierce (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=590970.0). The account features activity dating back a couple of years and includes likes from a “Marc Rector”. All the mentioned accounts have very convincing personal photos of the individuals in question and has raised some additional concerns about Pierce (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=590970.0).
And thus I clothe my naked villainy
With old odd ends stolen out of holy writ;
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil. - William Shakespeare
