Can you be more specific as to what collateral you are offering? It is obviously alt coins, but can you be more specific as to what alt coin you can provide?
EDIT: @Watoshi-Dimobuto - escrow is to protect the borrower from you running away with his collateral either as soon as he gives it to you (and before you send him the loan) or after he pays you back.
I sent you a pm - certain details are confidential, but we are free to post here confirmations for public records when deals are sealed. |

Amount: Total 7.58 btc, 4.5 btc available. Duration: 30-45 days (can be paid back earlier depending on negotiations) Repayment amount: Principle + 10% interest (4.95 btc) again, negotiable up to 15%. Loan purpose: I am deeply involved in btc trades and also in the altcoin scene. My previous transactions in the trust category can speak for themselves. At the moment I am building up capital for a significant investment into a proven technology and trading projects that should take off soon. Feel free to ask me any question about my past trades and purposes for this loan. Austin previously loaned a good portion to me for the loan, and has agreed to roll over the entire amount plus interest to the current one. That portion is set aside for austin alone, you have up to 4.5 btc and corresponding collateral you can loan for - you can check the previous thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=751645.0;allI can provide a collateral in different coins to cover most of the loan at the current market price, if that would ease your concerns due to this request being a relatively large amount. Escrow will be the one we both agree on that can be trusted to hold the collateral. Also, you can say my collateral is my reputation not only on btc talk forum trading reputation, but also my crypto reputation in general (irc, twitter, other forums etc) since people i work with know my forum handle. I would like to state this just to make clear what I am proposing. Thank you for taking time to read this request - I have posted in several threads seeking a loan for similar conditions. Anyone who comes first will have priority in terms of negotiations. Most terms are negotiable, and collateral covers 100% at slightly below current market rates, meaning you will most likely end up with 110% of the loan as a collateral. Once again, up to 4.5 btc loan accepted for corresponding collateral. Thank you in advance  Edit: Adjusted for new collateral amount and corresponding loan amount available on 10/31. Edit #2: Concluded, and matured. |

A comment by pookieklax (who the XC guys despise and have "banned") caught my eye. I don't know why he didn't post that comment earlier when he was in the know and it could save a lot of people continuing to fall for all the scams that Metcalf is involved in. halcyondev = https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=367138atcsecure = https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=88818Apparently atcsecure did a review (lmao) of the HAL coin which was using some component of the XC shitcoin. Only they are apparently the same person which one can easily find by comparing the posting style, format etc. pookie knew this but never said anything up until today and posted in the XC thread which was deleted within seconds. I am convinced that all the other shitcoins of this Blocknet shit is also same group seeing as some of them have also being "reviewed". A detailed XC thread needs to be started which explains all the charades these guys have been playing since the launch of XC. Surprised no one knows the story behind xc. Hint: Not all that legit. |

Austin agreed to have the entire 3.08 btc final payment rolled over into the next loan offer planned to be launched. I thank him publicly for his support here and now, and have offered him more advantageous terms as a sign of gratitude.
New loan offering thread will be launched shortly.

Preview. Cutting out the second paragraph box and replacing it with more icons [time consuming for icon work]. Replaced paragraph text with just keyword snippets. Third portion of it should be done tomorrow for preview. Enjoy: https://i.imgur.com/07ehNR1.jpgThank you very much for continuing to support this project. |

Yes, people will steal other peoples "ideas" especially if you rank up high with your metadata, you wouldn't be able to know that they stole it, most would just disregard it and assume that someone else has thought of the same idea.
Ideas are meant to be used by anyone. Nobody 'owns' an idea. Coin wallets are different, a store of personal wealth. I am wondering if rogue groups of NSA analysts might use their unfettered access to computers to steal cryptocoins? If you think up a unique patent then it is the product of your labour and belongs to you as much as your physical property. All through history, in every human society as well as among animals ideas have not been proprietary. It is only in a tiny slice of industrial society that an idea like that occurs. However the posession of a local commodity, usually food, is common through history also in every society including among animals. Perhaps the first question is whether a bitcoin wallet falls in the category of actual wealth, like a handful of food, or abstract wealth like an idea. In either case theft by government employees is for their personal gain and an abuse of power, in no way resemb!ing the use of an idea. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- answering the question is based on our assumption, meaningless.
It is more than assumption, a person takes evidence from their experience. I have lived in places where it is common for police officers to steal. I have even been outright robbed by a police oifficer in addition to numerous incidents of police in various countries asking for 'a gift' or 'something to remember you by'. All things taken into account, including educational standards and social norms, I consider the police in the United States to be the most corrupt among those in the many countries I have visited. Among U.S. po!ice I think NYC has a level of corruption that is ignored despite its being staggering. So in the original post I linked to an article. https://firstlook.org/theintercept/2014/10/24/nsa-official-implicated-potential-conflicts-interest-resigns/ And I ask, considering what is known of police habits around the world, but especvially in the United States, does that article cause any worry that perhaps the NSA would not frown on its employees making extra money by stealing cryptocoins? Yes, I remember all the times I was questioned and stopped by the police, not to mention taken into custody while living in US. Every single time, they asked for bribes or 'gifts'. Not once have I had a decent experience with them and they always beat me. No. Funny you try to wiggle out of it all by claiming 'by educational standards and social norms'. I think you should enjoy the relatively uncorrupted places where police literally fucks you in the ass and wallet because you understand their 'educational standard and social norms'. You got some serious problem with selective bitching here. Are you so fucked in the head you can't stand facts anymore? |

The US is on the process of finding the best way of regulating bitcoin, from a a digital “property” for taxation purposes to a digital “money” for regulatory and licensing purposes. It will boost the development of bitcoin and set up an good example for the other countries.
Neither of those ruling are surprising or ridiculous. Obviously, if you are a payment processor, you are transmitting money. The exchange ruling is a little less obvious, but it makes some sense.
Surprising number of sensible posts. |

This is GREAT news for BTC. not so great for western nations though. yet again the japanese are going to dominate the west. I have no problem with that. most of my appliances and my car is japanese made. to the victor go the spoils!
That explains why they got mt.goxxed, and why their women are world's whores now  |

There is no war - if you want to bitch about problems, why not go hunt down ryan kennedy?
If there is war, it's between those who want centralization of security but decentralization of profit - and more level headed people who know they can't have their cake and eat it too.
Not unless you are prepared for the same treatment from others.
Why complain if anyone scams you if you want to complain about fincen?

We all need to make each other aware of any doubts we have about any site/wallet holding BTC.
Things like this can be avoided to an extent.
I agree. What's particularly disturbing in this case is how people did make their doubts known and too many other people (including Moolah investors) defended the scammer. I don't know what more could've been done in this case. Apparently now the guilty moderators of the forums are deleting posts about people issuing their opinions on justifiable retribution and punishment for alex green. Maybe they have more then 'no issuing threats of violence of physical harm' clause that motivates them to do so Many people should be prepared to get their mouth cleaned and put in their place in the near future. Let's hope some people here are ready to face the consequences of their actions. They are certainly not anonymous. |

Keynes is not about printing money. Hes all about stimulus.
Friedman is about printing money.
Dude learn this 101 level stuff before you post
+1 Also, there is a bit of a difference in Government borrowing (in order to stimulate demand and create employment through public sector investment in for eg. infrastructure) and TBTF commercial banks operating in a deregulated market creating debt and cheap money to the masses. These kind of arguments, whereby unemployment is caused by regulation (in what to all intents and purposes is a deregulated/"liberalised" labour market) and where credit crunches are also caused by regulation (in what to all intents and purposes is a deregulated (ineffectual regulation) banking sector) - well, it just doesn't ring true. Its like the man who crashes his car blaming it on the mandatory road tax he has to pay - and not the bottle of vodka he downed before setting off on his journey. Keynes advocates artificially lowering interest rates, there is no way to do this without having the banks print more money. This kind of overly simplistic attitude does more to hurt 'the cause' then any 'bankster' can dream of doing. |

No wonder real criminals find you an easy prey.

What is true is that for big money, crypto as it is now is not attractive at all. Why make some of the current crowd rich?
... the same as has it been always, fear of missing out and greed trumps envy. Because they would like to enter a market without trumping these fools first? You are very naive. |

Shifting blame to viruses and other malicious actors would be a predictable course of action. Taking a few pot shots at the 'professionalism' of law firms is another way.
Everyone who is at least half way involved or in the loop knows that cryptsy along with many other 'exchanges' currently running are engaged in a lot of shady deals behind scenes - the kind that will land you in jail once regulations come into play.
Some of them might have forgotten their place and over played their hand one too many times. Chicken is coming home to roost.

japan or south korea may not matter - but mt.gox does.
china matters - because they are harming bitcoin more then doing good. Everyone should already know the primary driver behind last rise was not chinese demand, but bot and exchange reserve manipulation and insider trading. chinese news was more hype then substance no matter their supposed volume that is heavily manipulated.
Bitcoin and crypto does not need these nations - it will be they who will follow and accept bitcoin, not the other way around.
