they both deleted their accounts.. too much heat. they are probably figuring out where to run to now then again, if it were me and i was truly innocent, i'd still be scared as fuck. The evidence against him is overwhelming: 1. He owns the hosting service for the sheepmarketplace.com VPS server 2. He was the earliest known promoter of SMP (1 February 2013), and recommened SMP & BMR over Silk Road (11 April 2013) 3. He is a C++ QT Nette Framework Czech developer who runs Ubuntu, exactly like the SMP developer 4. He has complained about the memory demand of `bitcoind` on a VPS server, and discussed the difficulties of functionality like email from hidden services 5. Tomas or his girlfriend are active users of Tor, as evidenced by screenshots of their computer 6. It’s not clear what Tomas’s current job is, but it is clear that as of October, he was working on an e-commerce site which was having problems with buggy accounting of deposits 7. He posted a .htaccess file which has the same (buggy) functionality as that of SMP 8. He is an accused Bitcoin scammer Oh haha. So the guy who stole the money actually runs/owns Sheep?

I suppose it is possible that they have been framed or somebody got the wrong person, but I haven't seen what evidence they have against him.

Can I make my own casino with booze hookers and blackjack?
What are 'booze hookers'?
|
|

So are we getting some surprise on that day from you ?
You'll probably get his BTC address and the option to donate some birthday cash .
|

Tell him to get better weed that smells good when smoked.
With what money? Maybe I'll tell him to sign up here and pretend to be a girl so he can scam money to get BTC for decent weed on Silk Road

Well the Satoshi guy surely loves suspense. When is he gonna show himself ?
Maybe he's dead if he hasn't spent any of his coins. Seems a little odd.

I'm not sure, but I believe the M of N backups are in the upcoming release.
Sorry, I have no clue what "M of N backups" are... Could you please explain, or un-abbreviate? It's dividing the wallet into pieces and requiring a certain amount of them to rebuild the complete wallet. I've not yet used this feature with Armory, but I plan to. As I understand it, you can change the variables to different numbers. So, for example, you could divide your wallet into 5 pieces and require only 3 of them to recreate it entirely. This allows for excellent security and protection. You could place the 5 pieces in different, safe locations. It would require a thief to find three of them to steal your bitcoins. Yet, if two were destroyed (fire, flood, nuke, whatever), you could still recreate your entire wallet with the remaining 3. This is brilliant. Had no idea about this Armory wallet. Will have to do some research ASAP.

Keep in mind that he stole from a site full of drug dealers.
And drug users. Don't know who I'd be more scared of haha. How did they find out who he was?

Do the bitcoin atms take & dispense paper money? I might have to make a trip into vancouver sometime if they do.
Yeah. There's a few different ATMs, so some may only accept cards or whatnot, but there's definitely ones that accept fiat. Not sure about ones that dispense fiat.

Will we ever be able to buy and sell bitcoin easily?
We have to wait for more Bitcoin ATMs, you cannot build Rome in one day I'm really looking forward to see where these pop up in the Uk next year.
|

If I want to buy some bitcoin I have to get verified first and link a bank account. It is @#%^ing ridiculous. If I ever buy bitcoin it will have to be in-person with someone who has them. Selling is the same deal.
Will we ever be able to buy and sell bitcoin easily?
You can buy and sell on the forums easily. People will take bank transfer. Just remember to use a trusted escrow.
|
|
|
I like that you can tell people BTC is worth more than gold. Gives cryptoplebs an idea of its worth.
|
|
|
To be trendy and be doing something your competitors are not
lol, I suppose Bitcoin is pretty Hipster/underground. They wont like it when it breaks through to the mainstream.
|
|
|
I guess something got lost in translation. You could "counterfeit" paperwallets I suppose, or more specifically commit fraud/deception with them.
|
|

What Beet said, plus the value is likely to keep growing steady along with the market growth. Also no charegback issues.

Done.

Also Ebay/paypal are notorious for favoring the buyer. So be ware.
Yeah, I'm all too aware of this. It's ridiculous. I don't really sell on ebay any more because of this and their rapebastard fees. Just gonna try sell shit for coins on here.
|
|
|
Couldn't the fraudulent buyer not just claim there was nothing in the letter you sent him? How can you cover against this? Will ebay and paypal accept info from the blockchain?
|
|
|
Yeah, paypal thinks cryptocurrency is a threat to it's way of business, so it tries to discourage/discredit them. Of course, they have reason to be think this... They can embrace it and make money; or shun it and lose out. It's obvious peeps want to buy coins with PP, so why not let them? Cryptos are gonna destroy paypal anyway.
|
|
|
Why are they still letting sellers list them continually if it's against their T&Cs? Ebay and paypal are such a bunch of plebs. If they had any fucking clue they would set up their own marketplace/escrow system for selling cryptos.
