I'm taking the liberty to migrate a post from another thread to this one to bring further awareness as to what's at stake. Are you Sunlot supporters dense? Did you people lose IQ to transaction malleability? Are you SO dumb you let yourself get sweet talked by John Betts (who, by the way, talks like a politician: in circles without answering the question)? Let's get some quick facts out of the way: 1. Scamlot are insidersYeah, that's right. They've been trying to pull this shit off from the start, way back in Feburary. They are in the know. They know more than we do, and they know how to take advantage of this. If they know where the coins are, they take the 10%, for sure. 2. Scamlot are liarsThey promised to invest their own money and they promised to not touch customer funds. Where's that promise now?Did you hear? They claim to have had 70% of creditor support! How is that even possible? It's not, that's why they changed it to 40%. And this much only because you're unknowingly being represented in class action groups who are sipping wine and colluding behind our backs. Think about it, mtgoxrecovery.com which has been up since the start only barely has 30% representation.3. Scamlot have NO STAKE in mtgoxThese people have no coins in mtgox. These people are not putting upfront money to restart mtgox. From their actions they do not give a shit about bitcoin, the community, and even less the former users of mtgox. They are paying 1btc to buy out the 200k btc so they can squeeze us for what's left. They have nothing to lose, and everything to gain.Add on to that the excessive fearmongering "liquidation will only give you 3%!!!" (bullshit), "the courts, supervisor, and police are trying to screw you over!!!(sic)" (bullshit), and you get the picture. 4. If they fail, you get NOTHING leftScamlot is a company in Cyprus. There is nothing, absolutely NOTHING, we can do to prevent them from having an "accident", losing all the coins, and declaring bankruptcy in Cyprus. What? You want your coins back? From a liquidation? In Cyprus? LOLBottom Line: Scamlot is trying to take YOUR MONEYYeah that's right, that 10 million dollars? They get that off the bat, for doing an audit. Ten Million Dollars for a fucking audit. Any sane person will tell you that is theft. But oh-my-god what if they find coins?!?!?!Ok, listen up you retarded little shits, because I'm not going to repeat myself. There's only two possible outcomes. 1. They don't find the coins Well trolofuckinglol, we just paid them 10m for someone to tell us there are no coins left. We already knew that, but we're going to pay someone 10 million dollars to tell us again, in case reality isn't sinking in. It doesn't even take 10 million to liquidate the company. 2. They find the coins So after extorting us for 10 million, they get a 10% cut of whatever they find. That's a maximum of 65k btc, or 30 million. Oh, and they get 84% of the company in the end. Oh, and our debt is converted into fiat at a fixed rate of $450, and we get payed back in fiat, not bitcoin. In the meanwhile, our funds are held hostage for over a year, and we get a pitiful 16% of a stinkhole they show no signs of supporting. And you know what? These people are insiders, liars, and vultures, they know how this will end, it's just a matter of how much they profiteer out of this. ScamGox 2014 Thanks but no thanks, I've been goxxed enough. I'll take liquidation over this mockery. Source: http://www.reddit.com/r/mtgoxinsolvency/comments/24epjc/wake_up_sheeple_see_scamlot_for_what_they_are/ |

By BEN SILVERMAN
June 10, 2002 -- DotcomScoop.com
THESE guys would make even R. Kelly blush.
Marc Collins-Rector, Chad Shackley and Brock Pierce, the disgraced co-founders of Digital Entertainment Network (DEN.net), have been arrested in the Spanish resort town of Marbella, The Post has learned.
Collins-Rector had been indicted by the U.S. District Attorney in Newark in August 2000 on five counts of transporting a minor across state lines for the purpose of engaging in sex.
Shackley and Pierce were arrested when a warrant on Collins-Rector was served, said a Spanish law enforcement official. The source, and U.S. law enforcement officials who confirmed the arrests, said charges relate to child pornography found where the two were living.
"Enormous amounts of child porn" were found in the house, the Spanish law enforcement source said.
Michael Drewniak, a spokesperson for the Newark District Attorney's office, said papers for Collins-Rector's extradition are being prepared. Each charge against him carries a maximum prison sentence of fifteen years.
Pierce is a former actor who starred in Disney movies such as "The Mighty Ducks" and "Little Big League" in the early '90s.
The men have been sued in the past for allegedly raping, drugging and threatening to kill teenage boys while they still ran the now-defunct DEN.net.
"We knew for some time that [Collins-Rector] was essentially in the wind and we will be happy to have him back, thanks to the Spanish authorities," Drewniak told The Post.
Representatives of the National Police in Spain, the FBI-type organization that arrested the trio, declined comment.
New lawyers for the three could not be found. A lawyer who did some work for Collins-Rector said he was unaware of the trio's arrest, and a civil lawyer who represented the three in lawsuits said he has not had contact with his former clients in more than a year. He said he was "shocked" by the arrests.
The FBI would not confirm that Collins-Rector, Shackley, Pierce or DEN.net have ever been the subject of an investigation. But press reports indicate the FBI has been investigating the trio since late 1999. Sources said their arrest has reopened the investigation.
Published reports indicate that the FBI has been tailing the trio for some time, but their whereabouts has been thought to be anywhere from Florida to Thailand.
As recently as December 2001, a Web site for a murky Internet company based in the Caribbean but with offices in London listed Collins-Rectors and Shackley as founders. The Web site has since disappeared. The three were running at least one Internet-based business at the time of the arrests, said a source in Spain.
This twist could be DEN.net's final chapter.
A one-time high-flying Internet company that tried to capitalize on the growing broadband entertainment market, DEN.net fell to earth just weeks before a scheduled $75 million initial public offering in late 1999. That's when a New Jersey youth sued Collins-Rector, claiming he had been seduced by him while working for Concentric Networks, a network services company that Collins-Rector founded and later sold to XO Communications.
The news sent a shock wave through DEN.net. Collins-Rector, who was indicted, Shackley and Pierce resigned and then fled the country following reports of a possible FBI inquiry.
Press reports indicate the three had lived in an Encino mansion and turned it into a sex den. Ex-employees of the company deny knowing what they were up to but told The Post they felt something "wrong was going on."
A lawsuit brought by three young men resulted in a $4.5 million default judgment against Collins-Rector, Shackley and Pierce. Another lawsuit filed against the three, the company and other directors was settled for an undisclosed sum late last year, according to Brian Brandt, the lawyer for that minor. The lawsuits claim the men raped, drugged and threatened to kill the youths, some of whom were on DEN.net's payroll.
"We were really interested in finding these guys so they could face justice for what they've done," Brandt told The Post.

"The survival of MtGox can send a powerful message to the broader public and regulators." (savegox.com)
Is ironic the right word?
How ironic is it that the powerful message they want to send is "MtGox is run by a child rapist"?
Oh wait look at this.........
Here is something I didn't notice before:
"We are prepared to invest heavily in this business once we have conducted a full accounting of MtGox's assets and legal liabilities. When MtGox was hacked, customer balances potentially were altered, resulting in the deficits that forced the exchange to shut down. Until a qualified audit has been undertaken by a suitable internationally recognized auditor, the size of those liabilities will remain unknown."
I smell made up BS, but it's still interesting to think the hackers simply added 650,000 BTC to selected accounts.
LOL...??
Bitcoin entities aside, I'm hard-pressed to find a flourishing company that Brock Pierce invested in. In fact, I'm in the process of compiling a list accompanied with a where-are-they-now?, for all I've seen to date is 100's of millions of dollars...  |

All I hear in my head is proceed with extreme caution... Things are going to be very interesting while people watch to see where this is going.
Pardon our dust while Brock Pierce remodels the New Gox.  |

If you ever need any tips on grammar I'm the guy to ask for help. Put your full trust in me.  I guess it's pretty difficult to fuck up grammar-wise when one only pens two sentences per post. Not sayin' that that's a bad thing.  |

http://brockpierce.org/about-brock-pierce/Among his other current ventures, Pierce co-founded and sits on the boards of Xfire, formerly Titan Gaming, a casual online game publisher incorporating skill-based tournaments for points or cash as its primary business model; EverTune, a patented proprietary technology which keeps any stringed instrument in tune for the life of the string set by utilizing a unique spring system to maintain constant tension; RevenueAPEX, a specialty finance company advancing receivables for the Internet industry; myTaste, a wine recommendation engine connecting expert influencers with passionate consumers; and Xoftek, a unique technology bringing video based VOIP services to televisions across the globe. https://www.linkedin.com/company/revenue-apex http://web.archive.org/web/20091121021110/http://www.revenueapex.com/about/ Brock Pierce is a serial entrepreneur who is widely recognized as a market innovator — particularly for his ground-breaking work at the nexus of entertainment, marketing and digital culture. He is renowned for pioneering the market for virtual goods in video games and on social networks, and for changing the way video is distributed.
Currently Pierce is Co-Founder, Chairman and President of Revenue APEX.
Other recent start-ups include: AdRadian, a full service affiliate network and performance based direct response agency; EverTune, a proprietary technology which keeps any stringed instrument in tune for the life of the string by utilizing a unique spring system to maintain constant tension; Taste Media, a knowledge-network connecting expert influencers with passionate consumers of wine and spirits; Borough Six, an Internet based direct marketing company similar to Guthy Renker.
Prior to his most recent ventures, Pierce is credited with the evolution and global consolidation of the virtual assets marketplace and media sector for the online gaming industry. Pierce's Affinity Media is the largest provider of virtual asset trading services, digital gaming content and community services for the world's 45 million gamers. Pierce founded Affinity Media (originally Internet Gaming Entertainment) in 2001, raising over $100 Million from blue chip investors such as Goldman Sachs and Oak Investment Partners. During his tenure as CEO from 2001 to 2007, he managed the acquisition of over 20 companies globally and established operations in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Seoul and the United States — with over 600 employees. Affinity is still the market leader in the sector and Pierce currently serves as an advisor and Vice-Chairman of the Board.
Prior to founding Affinity Media, Pierce was among a handful of industry pioneers to recognize and harness the potential represented by the convergence of entertainment, media and immersive online games - founding one of the first businesses to successfully link virtual world economies with real ones in 1997. At the same time, while attending the University of Southern California's film school, he co-founded Digital Entertainment Network (DEN), a company focused on the delivery of entertainment over broadband. DEN raised more than $88 million from investors such as Microsoft, Intel and NBC.
Pierce is an active angel investor and a member of the Tech Coast Angels. On the philanthropic front, he is an active supporter of non-profit and advocacy organizations and is a member of the Clinton Global Initiative. Both Wired and Fortune Magazine have written exposés on Pierce. He has also been a lecturer at Stanford and USC.  William Quigley joined Clearstone Venture Partners shortly after its formation to concentrate on its internet and communications related investments. During his first two and a half years with the firm, he worked out of the idealab! incubator and helped launch and lead investments in many idealab! backed companies including Homepage.com, FreePC, FreeMusic.com and Paymybills.com. A number of his early-stage investments have gone public, including MP3.com, Tickets.com, Emusic and PeopleSupport and several have been acquired including InternetConnect (sold to Covad) and Phasebridge (sold to Emcore).
Quigley's current portfolio reflects his belief in the enormous opportunity in the wireless consumer and enterprise markets (AOptix, SoonR, Meru Networks, Novariant). He is also focused on emerging companies offering managed services in the enterprise and consumer sectors (Communicado, Spock Networks). Quigley is a member of the Board of Directors of AOptix Technologies, Communicado, Meru Networks, Novariant, SoonR and Spock.com.

What was that site? And does anyone have a copy of the database that was involved?
The database has been saved by many people I suppose (but not me, sorry) and may be still available; google for "Mt.GOX leak". The site was http://mark-karpeles.com/ but that URL now points to a form ostensibly created by Mark Karpeles for clients to confirm their claims against MtGOX. Careful, it smells of a phishing attempt and it may be illegal since creditors should probably contact the bankruptcy court/executors rather than the unknown author of a dubious webpage. I'm not sure I see the form you're talking about? This, too, may work: http://archive.today/mark-karpeles.com |

If every investment succeeded we'd all be rich.
Has Mt Gox's customer been downgraded to a 16.5% -ROI investor status? If a client put in $100 into Mt Gox prior to its closure, within several years they're expected to receive $16.50 and, if I'm not mistaken, they'll have to pay for such privilege. I would love to get in on some of that action, but unfortunately I have 1,132 BTC still tied up over at InstaWallet as one its non-customers (Paymium honestly stated that InstaWallet didn't have any customers). |

http://www.targetnewspapers.com/TolfinWeb/public/updates/articles/Articles%202008/0802/080213D.htmFORMER U.S. MOVIE STAR TURNED I NTERNET-GAMING GURU
NAMED AS DEFENDANT IN CALIFORNIA LAWSUIT
Meanwhile, the Hongkong Taxman Claims $HK44.10 million
The Commissioner of Inland Revenue of Hongkong has lodged a $HK44.10-million Legal Claim against Internet Gaming Entertainment Ltd, a company, incorporated in the Hongkong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) on February 26, 2003.
The Commissioner is chasing after Internet Gaming Entertainment Ltd in respect of the alleged, non-payment of tax.
According to TOLFIN (泰達財經) (The Computerised, Online Financial Intelligence Service and Web-Based, Credit-Checking Provider), Internet Gaming Entertainment Ltd is beneficially owned by IGE U.S. LLC of Boca Raton, Florida.
In turn, IGE U.S. LLC is owned, beneficially, by Mr Brock Jeffry Pierce, formerly a film and television star, back in the 1980s, when, as a child actor, he was known, simply, as Brock Pierce.
Internet Gaming Entertainment Ltd (of the HKSAR), as at February 26, 2007, had an Issued and Fully Paid-Up Share Capital of $HK10,000, divided into 10,000 shares of $HK1.00 per share.
Its shareholders were, as at that date:
Mr Alan Johan Debonneville One Share
Mr Brock Jeffrey Pierce One Share
IGE U.C. (which should be U.S.) LLC 9,988 Shares
TOTAL : 10,000 Shares
With regard to the first-named shareholder – Mr Alan Johan Debonneville – he is a Co-Founder of IGE U.S. LLC, but it appears that there has been more than a little falling out with his partner, the 27 year-old, Mr Brock Jeffrey Pierce.
IGE U.S. LLC is a producer of Internet games, known as MMORPG – an acronym for Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game.
Mr Brock Jeffry Pierce was, at one time, quite well known, having the title role in the Walt Disney’s film: ‘First Kid’.
Today, Mr Brock Jeffrey Pierce is embroiled in a battle with his Co-Founder, Mr Alan Johan Debonneville, a Swiss national who is, presently, domiciled in the HKSAR, his last-known address, being:
Flat F, 26th Floor, Tower One,
The Orchards,
Number 3, Greig Road,
Quarry Bay,
Hongkong Island.
TOLFIN’s records of land transactions show that this gentleman purchased the above flat for $HK6.95 million from Mr Pai Hu San (白浩森) on June 16, 2006.

Mount Coxs. Thanks for the good laugh in these sad times! Thanks, bud. To be clear, although it was penned for laughs, sadly it won't be a laughing matter when soon down the road fiction meets facts. Remember when Gox became a proper verb, i.e. Goxed/Goxxed? Mount Coxs is already virtually written in stone when you consider that only 16.5% of Mt Gox's customer's $/BTC is PROMISED to be returned over an X period of time. Hell, said should be a word problem on the SAT: The former Mt Gox, renamed Mount Coxs, promises to return ONLY 16.5% of their money on account in the form of an equity stake. Should you... A) Bend over and take it like a man. B) Remain standing and take it like a girl. C) Alternate between A) & B). D) None and all of the above, plus open a new account at Mount Coxs because you understand Bitcoin. |

Phinnaeus while you're highly entertaining I'm afraid you're looking at facebook bots.
Not sure what you mean by Facebook Bots, but the majority of the FB pages I've addressed were created on September 10, 2012, some of which recently point toward Bitcoin entities.  |

http://www.metalinternational.com/index.php?option=com_mysites&view=project&id=714Pierce generally plays the role of strategist and dealmaker in each company after attracting the management teams and capital. He is currently an advisor to Casual Connect, GamesBeat, and Digital Media Wire. Pierce is also an active angel investor, a founding mentor of the Founder Institute’s L.A. chapter, and a member of SoCal Tech and Media Entertainment Technology Alliance. Pierce is an active supporter of non-profit and advocacy organizations and a member of Clinton Global Initiative. Prior to entering the game business, Pierce co-founded Digital Entertainment Network (DEN), one of the first and most ambitious digital media companies. DEN raised more than $88 million from investors, including Microsoft, Intel Capital and NBC. He began his career as a successful Hollywood actor, starring or appearing in 12 major motion pictures, including The Mighty Ducks and First Kid, as well as many commercials. Most of the $88M was squandered to produce Chad's World, based on a true story (seriously): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0960743/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_plA boy named Chad starts out living in Michigan. His best friend, Paul, is trying to decide if he should come out or not to his parents. He decides he's going to come out to his parents, and his parents are right-wing type, Midwest-type parents, and they don't take it very well. http://www.ultraculture.co.uk/12376-welcome-to-chads-world-seann-william-scott.htmIn 1996, in the early days of the dot-com bubble, an American businessman named Marc Collins-Rector launched the Digital Entertainment Network, a sort of proto-YouTube producing ’26 original series aimed at teenage boy subcultures’. The company folded in 2000 after it became clear that Rector and his associates were using DEN’s profits to throw LA mansion parties at which they raped young boys, but not before it had a chance to spawn Chad’s World, a gay-interest webseries co-written by Rector himself.  Jim and Kevin inform Chad that they have a surprise waiting for him in his room. What could it possibly be? “Gee!” squeals Chad in delight upon seeing the gift. Make no mistake, the above truly happened IRL, now the same gang is about to oversee Mt Gox or the New Gox or Mount Coxs.

Sunlot based on what I read has named it New Gox.
I thought about it for a second and agreed the term "New" is a good idea, simply being gox is no longer as good as I mentioned above.
Regardless of the name, it's who'll be the figureHEAD and what actually money was put up front (if any) and from whom(s). http://jezebel.com/inside-the-hollywood-sex-ring-mansion-from-the-bryan-si-1567755415In 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. While Collins-Rector, Shackley and 17-year-old executive vice president and former child star Brock Pierce were able to raise nearly $100 million in capital, they weren't able to deliver the technology they'd promised their big-name investors (like seeing a lamp in a video, and having the ability to click on it and buy it). The above is what's in stored for all Mt Gox's customers - unable to delivered what was promised. |
