I'm just waking up.  This post is intended to quote Mr. Ryan.  There will be two three more posts following this one.

(For anyone that's wondering, RHavar is throwing a fit because of this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2897545.msg52814057#msg52814057.)


That's strange because you sound like an owner here:



Stop telling me what I know and what I am.  I don't know that it isn't your site.  You sure seem pretty involved (for no apparent reason.. perhaps the goodness of your heart or the love for the community *throws up*  ).  We just discussed this in private message two weeks ago:


I don't believe in coincidences.

What I do think I know (feel free to correct me) is that you currently: Decide what datacenter to host stuff at, help maintain & secure funds, contribute math that determines what players rolls are, act as an "auditor", you're a chat moderator and you bankroll the site.  You also make statements that BustaDice website is proveably-fair to normal investors (which is totally bogus).  It sounds an awful lot like your website, but you enjoy having that "it wasn't me" excuse.


But... isn't that provably fair if you do trust them!? (sarcasm)

Please send the Bitcoin you now owe me.  My BTC address is: bc1qwupmf3gc6ql8thl3eqmkce6uuur4prj4schw55

Thanks.

Sheesh Ryan... what happened to going to bed before you say something you regret?


17 minutes later...




I'm childishly abusing the trust system?!  *looks Ryan up and down* *bursts out laughing* lol! OK  

I left you & your associate neutral feedback in regard to something that you agree with:


and


and we had this talk back in March of this year too.


This is the second time I've had to call you or websites you're associated with out on misusing the term "provably-fair" in a fashion to give investors a false sense of security.  You bet your ass I left neutral feedback this time around.

I really don't think I'm abusing the trust system.  If anything, you are abusing the trust system, but I'm not mad at you.

Get some sleep, reconsider your feedback in the morning and send me that Bitcoin you owe me.  

I left you neutral feedback for absurd negative feedback you left me and I will leave you negative feedback tomorrow if you don't send that Bitcoin you owe me for me "remotely" showing that you personally have said investing is proveable-fair on y'alls site (Negative feedback will be left after midnight October 21, 2019).

Thanks, you probably should have just went to bed as you said.

Edit:  Ryan woke up and removed the negative feedback on his own prior to us using Dooglus as a third-party to settle the dispute in regards if Ryan owed me any BTC.

Double Edit: Dooglus ruled against me due to the fact I was unable to prove "both".  I've dropped my dispute.

No, I am not. I sincerely mean everything I'm saying.


Good call.  Have a good night as well.  I wasn't trying to upset you, but really you should know the difference between provably-fair and probably-fair.

I'm going to bed too, but not cause you told me so!

Put some ice on that butthurt.

There isn't any diplomacy in misusing a word that inspires false confidence from investors.

Just say this:


Fix it, don't do it again and go on with life.  Simple.  

I'm not here to fight with you or cause any grief.  Just trying to maintain the integrity of the word "provably-fair".  I would hope you can respect that.

Edit: Maybe I was wrong about the claim in regards to BustaBit... the problem seems to be just on BustaDice... which is owned & operated by the same people regardless.  However, I will keep searching tomorrow.  I'm going to bed now and not cause you told me to! hehe It's all good Big Ry-dawg.

You should just stop misusing the word "provably fair" and fix where y'alls website(s) claim it is provably fair for investors (bustabit or bustadice).

Maybe replace it to "probably fair" for investors?

quoted, give me a minute

Edit #1:  You didn't type this?  

"Assuming you trust the two not to collude, investing becomes provably fair."

Edit #2:  I'm going to find the forum post as well.  Give me a few more minutes.  I have like 370 pages of past posts.

Edit #4:  You for sure typed this!  Thanks for that Bitcoin!  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2219681.msg50191132#msg50191132 I should have posted this one before #3.  (I went ahead and moved this one above #3)

I believe I have "remotely" shown that you have claimed that BustaDice and/or BustaBit is provably-fair for investors when it is in fact not (see "Edit #4).

I could have sworn that you said in a thread after this one that you'd offer .1 BTC if I could show a link with Daniel stating investing was provably-fair... I don't see it anymore, however, Edit #6 & #7 shows that.

It seems like you owe me BTC at this point.  My bitcoin address is: bc1qwupmf3gc6ql8thl3eqmkce6uuur4prj4schw55

I think you're (or whoever) confusing people by grossly misusing the word "provably fair".


I believe I have seen you make the claim that both sites are "provably fair" for investors IF you trust you "two".  

You're misusing the word and giving investors a false sense of security by doing so.  Stop.

This isn't the first time you and I have spoken about this. (99% sure we spoke about it in this thread in fact)


Are they?  How so?  Are you saying that either game is actually provably fair for investors?  

You're making guarantees to investors now?  


I think investors are traditionally pretty smart folks.  I'm sure they will manage.

Do you understand what provably fair means?  It means you do not have to trust individuals & you can self verify cheats.  It isn't "provable" if it relies on individuals. It's probably-fair (maybe).

Here are several quotes from RHavar:






Here is a quote from the Bustadice thread from Ryan tonight:

Unreal right?  This was a real message that Mr. Seibel posted in our CLAM discord channel.  I was so disgusted that I almost fell out of my chair.

What makes this even worse is that Mr. Seibel was then supplied a free fix for the Poloniex CLAM wallet (I believe it was a single line of code to ignore dust deposits that were killing Poloniex's wallet).  Mr. Seibel never took that advice and allowed the CLAM wallet to continue to be broken. The CLAM trading market was never paused. Poloniex continued to profit from the CLAM market the entire time.

The CLAM wallet continuing to be broken prevented CLAM users from depositing CLAMS to the market.  This allowed "the attacker" to easily manipulate the CLAM market resulting in a 1,800 BTC loss for Poloniex/Circle.  Poloniex/Circle then passed that loss along to their customers.  https://www.coindesk.com/margin-lenders-lost-13-5-million-in-may-to-poloniex-crypto-crash

I firmly believe that James Seibel negligence, in this case, is, in fact, criminal. https://definitions.uslegal.com/c/criminal-negligence/

I strongly advise people to avoid companies that employees James Seibel or is founded by Mr. Seibel.  Poloniex/Circle passed on the 1,800 BTC loss to customers after all. https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/crypto-news/finance-and-funding/poloniex-users-threaten-to-sue-the-exchange-after-clam-flash-crash-resulted-in-a-13-5m-loss/

I noticed some interesting stuff about Poloniex this weekend as well:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=420836.msg52804694#msg52804694

It appears Poloniex was riddled with bad characters from the ground/up.  I am so thankful to see Poloniex getting kicked the fuck out of 'Murica (see my link above).

Using a VPN is a great way of losing your money to a company that wants to steal using their Terms of Service.

Swap is dead in the water at the moment.  We are working fulltime on the XCHANGE.  Swap will plug into XCHANGE

We pulled all of our swap funds off Poloniex after I noticed some really disturbing things (even more disturbing than them being sold to "anonymous Chinese investors" :  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=420836.msg52804694#msg52804694

My only update for today:



Please considering voting at https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/djpg2m/bug_bounty_scam_blockchaincom_hackeronecom_didnt/

I respectfully agree with that as well.  That would be an accurate statement.

Let me know when you fix that and I will remove the neautral feedback.

I think you are misleading investors that investing is Provably Fair is a bit manipulative.

These games are only Provably Fair proveable fair to players, these investing sites are currently not Provably Fair to investors. (besides maybe PF to you and devan, but it is definitely not PF to me if I invest.)

Investing is not Provably Fair by math.  Period.  Please consider changing this.

Not a snowball's chance in hell while I own a majority share of the FreeBitcoins.  We will never support anything that is equivalent to or can be substituted for currency (or has the appearance of).

Swap tool is all fuckered up right now.  

We are on the tail end of developing our own inhouse Shitcoin Exchange:  https://freebitcoins.com/xchange/  (PLEASE DO NOT DEPOSIT, THE SITE IS NOT LIVE, WE ARE STILL WORKING EVERYDAY ON HER)  Swap will plug into that soon.  This will allow us to lower Swap fees as well (50% cut down to 1% when we get stuff going).

Thanks for being patient with us while we get everything checked out.

ALSO,  if you have five minutes... please weigh in on this security issue I found on Blockchain.com's new "military-grade" fiat exchange:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5193539.msg52781465#msg52781465  Be sure to comment on that other thread if you choose to comment about the thing I found and the $50 bounty for "recognition of my effort to prioritize this fix". *an heros*  (Anyone is welcome to check this out too, I really appreciate comments for or against me, as long as you include why you feel that way.)

The key to automated gambling while showering without a bot in Just-dice is.... just leave something heavy on your keyboard on either the H or the L key!

Poloniex isn't spinning out of Circle, Circle is running out of Poloniex because hell is raining down on them finally (thank god).

You can't declare your company is an MSB in 2015 and start imposing your own regulations/updating your own magical daily withdraw limits... However, only start to apply for licenses in 2018 and expect it actually to work out.

Poloniex is having a bad year in 2019.  I expect life is going to get significantly worse for Poloniex as well.

It started out with Tristian and his two associates getting nailed in Georgia:  https://dbf.georgia.gov/press-releases/2019-03-19/department-enters-consent-order-tristan-d%E2%80%99agosta-julie-kim-and-michael

Then Poloniex gets nailed in Ohio for a $100,000 fine. (Ohio's website is down this weekend)

Then Poloniex starts giving up all of its licenses:  https://www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org/EntityDetails.aspx/COMPANY/1486722



I really hope the United States continues to pursue these bad characters and doesn't allow them to just pawn it off on some anon chinese shit.  Tristian likely belongs in prison, in my opinion, for 1-5 years (FED time, so 80%).

Poloniex https://support.poloniex.circle.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028483832 page still claims they have all these licenses... which they don't as indicated above.





Ah fuck it, I'll bite and open a support ticket!  It's fun kicking bad guys when they are down because they've treated their customers like such shit for years.





If Poloniex still continues to purposely misrepresents that they have USA Licenses on Monday, I'm going to begin my rounds of making phone calls/complaints with the proper state authorities.  I recommend others do the same on Monday if Poloniex leaves that page up. (the more that complain, the better our chance is... right now is time to sue and file complaints against this organization and put these bad characters out of their misery and out of the Bitcoin/Cryptocurrency industry.  If we need to file complaints on Monday, file them against CIRCLE.  Not Poloniex.  Circle isn't going to just be able to trick USA citizens all the way their November deadline without having repercussions.  For example, Georgia is a $500 a day fine for example and it seems Poloniex has been lying about its license in GA for months at this point!! Bastards man! )

Poloniex mod says that the "Chinese" company is retaining it's, American staff.  It's pretty obvious this sell to China is just a way of this company attempting to dodge the laws/United States investors they have violated and defrauded.  I doubt the DOJ and other departments investigating Poloniex AND Circle take kindly to this.




Hopefully, this clown learned his lesson about being lazy around Sharks.  I personally believe all of that whole CLAM situation would have been avoided if Poloniex (specifically James Seibel) would have taken 5 minutes to implement the fix that the CLAM team gave them for free.

James Seibel was specifically responsible for 1,800 BTC being lost, in my opinion.  I have opened a thread specifically for this individual:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5194358.msg52814537#msg52814537

BlockchainPIT on their telegram channel is now editing their messages!

I'm so fucking thankful I took screenshots.



Before they edited their response was:


Edit:  Lol I'm just noticing that part of the edit in their telegram removed the "to ensure it's sorted correctly." lol *facepalm* srsly?

Double edit:  I'm not saying editing is bad.  I make about a million edits and typos each post... but to remove the part that says they will get it sorted correctly is kinda funny in a sick way. lol

I am now calling this a scam as of this post due to Blockchain and HackerOne not honoring their Bug Bounty terms of payment. After going back and forth with Blockchain's & HackerOne's customer support, I also believe they made claims that they knew are flat out lies. Please read through and make your own decision.  I have done my best to document everything here.
 
Something feels real off to me about it.  I find it hard to believe that their security team was aware of this problem and purposely chose not to fix it... or at least chose not to fix it until I reported it.
