Yes they're definitely legit and I've done the Coinbase--->blockchain wallet transfer.  They will close your account in a hearbeat though if you transfer funds to gambling sites or any other shady activity.  And no warning.  And just general advice:  As with any exchange, don't store bitcoin there, just use it to buy and sell.  Good luck.

Sometimes mitigating factors should be weighed when making a decision like that, and given SJ's reputation I would think a warning should suffice.  I agree that the sig is a problem but I think a ban is far too severe for this type of offense.  I see Spoetnik and Gleb Gamow consecuposting all the time.  All the time.  They don't wear signatures though.

They're starting to give negative and neutral feedback for lenders not asking for a signed message before loaning. I think that's way overboard.  The logic is that this will recruit scammers, but I don't buy that.

Of course they didn't respond,  this happens about once a week.

And yeah I think people are being far too overzealous with their feedback.   Leaving you negative or even neutral trust for not asking for a signed message is just obnoxious.

Not for nothing but "no collateral" is in the thread title.  He's got more positives than negs and I'd do this but it's not worth the risk for that paltry amount of interest.

Don't know if that was a question or a statement, as you seem to have abandoned punctuation entirely, but I'm not interested in your acaont.  I was just making an observation.

Right, what is stability exactly for bitcoin?  We've had periods of relative stability lately, when the price was hovering around $400 or so.  And everyone here in the speculation section was crying because of boredom--everyone wanted to jump on the rocket to the moon! 

And I agree with the person who said that as it stands now, a whale with a few million dollars can move the bitcoin market all by himself.  We really need to up the market cap if we're to avoid stuff like that happening.  We'll see.  Maybe something better will come along and make bitcoin obsolete.

I think that's still about 0.08 btc too high.  If you come down on the price about that much, maybe more, you'll have a better chance to sell it here.

Excellent sales pitch, by the way.  Top-notch, Harvard Business School skills you have, and I'm not just blowing smoke up your ass.

And there is something something something about smart contracts, which I have yet to fully grasp.  I asked about what they are in another thread and didn't get a reply.  I'm totally not a computer geek and I looked at the wikipedia article on them, but I just don't think I'm savvy enough to understand without someone dumbing it down for me.  So I'm interested in the replies here as well.

The things you wrote seem to be mostly hype though. To say the very least, I'm extremely skeptical of ETH's chances of overtaking bitcoin.  We'll see.  I'm definitely watching the price on Yobit.

Mmmm hmmmm.  And this thread is about one particular rotten apple, escrow.ms.  I don't think anyone here was making a generalization about how corrupt the escrowers or default trust people are here on bitcointalk.  Master-P might be the other huge exception, but these are exceptions not the rule.

I could give a shat what you do with your money, but be careful shorting bitcoin.  Hell, be careful shorting anything.  The downside is only limited by your imagination and if you can imagine yourself sitting on a street corner selling pencils with a tin cup in your hand, then that's just the start of what could really happen.  Markets have murdered people who thought prices were too high and went short.  And with bitcoin?  Yeah, you'd be surprised how irrational the market can be.

Like what exactly?

The Jungle by Upton Sinclair is my all-time favorite book, and he was a die hard socialist and tried his damnedest to implement it in the US, but it was not to be.  I'm not saying capitalism is the best, but I don't think socialism is compatible with human nature, which contains elements of greed and altruism but in nowhere near equal proportions.

You mean ignorant and/or sloppy, I think. 

I'm still intrigued by the dark web but I'm still not willing to download Tor and actually do any browsing.  Is bitcoin like the main currency there or has Dash made any headway?

Georgia the country, right?  Not the state in the US, I assume.  Sell whatever you want, but I don't think anyone on this forum is going to want something simply because it's from Georgia (the country).  But if you can get cigarettes that cheap, then you can probably sell them at a decent profit--don't know how legal it is.  You don't seem to care about legality, though, am I right?

Wow, another teamviewer scam.  You'd think people wouldn't fall for this but this apparently is working for the scammers.

BTW OP, do you have anything to back up your claims?  Like chat logs, screenshots, etc?  This guy is a member here?

Sounds like you didn't lose any bitcoin though, which is good.

Hmm, those Scottsdale bars are pretty nice.  How much are you asking?  

Also, while I'm pondering this, TECSHARE has a thread where he's offering to buy PMs at spot.  I'm up in the air as to whether I want to sell or buy more so I'll have to think.

Well that's a loaded question, isn't it?  But do we really need another price speculation thread?  There's like 20 of them created per day and it's all so silly, because no one person here has better information than the next person.  I think we're going to $500.  Does it make you feel more bullish that I said it?  Does it reinforce your prediction and if it does, does it make your prediction any more likely?

So many shit suggestions in this thread, it's amazing.  But at least I got a few more suggestions about who to add to my ignore list, so there's that.

This thread is months old and it's interesting to see how everyone mentions the coin du jour, and lately that's been ETH.  And monero too.  But I suspect most of you people who've suggested coins never really made any money in any of them.  You're all just a bunch of hot air.

I suggest Dash and Doge, by the way.  Laugh all you want.

Dude, let Wayniac address the scam accusation against him before asking for a loan.  That would be my suggestion.  He may have run off.  And he may be a scammer in which case he should not be doing business here.

Whatever you do, DON'T do this^^^^^.  This is a MLM scheme or straight up scam and there's some retard sitting behind a desk with boogers stuck underneath it, drinking vodka and registering new accounts on bitcointalk in order to shill for MMM.  So don't fall for it.  Also don't fall for 99.99% of these shitty business opportunities that pop up on this forum and elsewhere.
