Apparently, 17ifs was not parked, but part of a steganographic message that happened to include it. The address might well belong to nobody at all. ugh...
Drat - that's the worse thing ever. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)

^I confirm this as the escrow. Apparently OP copied the wrong address for me from the firstbits system where 17ifsBMD96wHNgEmhwPkMhhepWkjX4jrQ5 was reserved first. ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif)

umm lets see batch #1 Unit Price: $1,299 - batch #2 Unit Price: $1,499 - now batch #3 75 Bitcoins lets say at $70 ~$5000 how does the price jump that much and not call it greed HOW? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) It's the free market in work. If you're not happy with that, please form your own ASIC company to compete with them.

You need to verify more parts before people would even think of investing in you. Also, please quit spamming in Custom Hardware.

In regards to the second part, I have never met theymos nor chatted/communicated with him extensively apart from the occasional PM. I guess I should go and meet him someday. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Haha - yes, if he trusted you with 70K USD, you should meet him someday and thank him for the trust. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I hope he did some background checking on you. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Out of curiosity, what did the lawyer think about bitcoin, you just gave him a paper and told him the code on the paper needs to be kept safe as it's worth 70K USD ? *s* I've been holding escrows amounting to over 15k + now in the recent months, so trust is a paramount issue for me. In fact, I've escrowed over 1k in the past week alone. I just told the lawyer to treat that envelope as he would treat a $70k + deed, and just mentioned it were for some electronic holdings. I guess as Bitcoin is a non-existing entity in my region so far, I shouldn't bog the poor man with another Bitcoin elevator pitch. (yet) Edit: Good nights!

If 'trusted' friends were a viable and secure way of storing assets, I don't think theymos needs to distribute the funds out for storage already. I'm already having a lawyer to act as a failsafe for my other BTC assets as he's the family lawyer, so naturally I would use this existing avenue to minimize the risk as much as possible.
How can your lawyer act as a failsafe ? If the coins somehow goes missing or is moved without your approval, will the lawyer pay this back out of his own pocket ? Seems like insurance is what you need. And I guess insurance would not come for free, not with storing bitcoins. And in regards to friends. What are you if not a friend of Theymos ? A failsafe in regards to the part where I were hit by a truck or safe contents destroyed. An off-site backup in this case. Anyway, I'm entrusted this amount and I have my obligations to uphold this trust as much as I can with my own means. In regards to the second part, I have never met theymos nor chatted/communicated with him extensively apart from the occasional PM. I guess I should go and meet him someday. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I dont have a problem with the forum making money I have a problem with calling it a donation. It is not a fing donation. It is a bribe for favoritism or a payment for services, who knows what service that might be? When you operate in secrecy it is not possible to know your intentions. I want you guys to make money, john k, thymos, and the other senior members you guys paved the way and should get paid, but do it honest. If you are going to charge for vip membership just say you are charging dont disguise it as a communal fund.
Man, I'm actually losing money to help the forum store the funds as I'm the one paying the lawyer and deposit box. The only amount spent by the forum so far was to renew the bitcointalk.org address via Namecheap. Please don't assume we're making any amount of money out of this. Seriously - why the fuck do you need a lawyer and a deposit box, that's about the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my entire life. Just to be safe if I get hit by a truck or anything stupid happens to my home's safety box. I'm not wealthy enough to be risking ~$70,000 of some other entity's money, and I store my long term BTC holdings there too. I don't see how you should pay a lawyer out of your own pocket for this. Why not rather just use a trusted friend in that case. Besides, 70K is a shitload of money. I don't know how Theymos has arranged it, but surely distributing it a little it not a bad idea, I hope he doesn't get burned. If 'trusted' friends were a viable and secure way of storing assets, I don't think theymos needs to distribute the funds out for storage already. I'm already having a lawyer to act as a failsafe for my other BTC assets as he's the family lawyer, so naturally I would use this existing avenue to minimize the risk as much as possible.

Only problem with silver is it's hard to store and transport monster boxes. A small tube of 10 gold coins = a 500 coin silver monster box.

On a separate note - John K - why don't you sell me some BTC ? :-)
Not selling at this obvious weekend dip. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
