It looks to me like the first post is a firm offer of $1,000 for the domain name and $500 for a verifiable introduction to the domain owner.
$1,500 total

PATRICK,

YOU ARE A LIAR! [/allcaps]

You lied to my face in San Francisco last month,  and now you are lying on the forums.
Stop lying, and help to return the money to the people it belongs to.

Sign the document!

For the record,  I have pleaded with the Intersango trio, both in person to Patrick Strateman,  and electronically to all three of them to sign something like this.
All three of them have refused to date.
I hope they reconsider, and do the right thing.

I still want my 23,000+ Bitcoins back!

I don't think Matthew is sorry for anything other than losing the bet.
Below is a not so private skype conversation he initiated with me earlier today.

[9/10/12 3:47:49 PM] Matthew N. Wright: Just wanted to say that I'm sorry for any negative backlash my prank might have caused. I had never intended to take that bet seriously and was laughing for 3 weeks straight for which I honestly thought would be an easy "fuck you", but it turned out I was shortsighted and hurt a bunch of people. That really wasn't my intention and I feel awful. I took the necessary steps for the businesses I'm involved in and have decided to take a back seat to everything from now on.

[9/10/12 3:48:51 PM] Roger Ver: I saw your posts and listed to you on DonkDown Radio.   I don't believe you.

[9/10/12 3:51:15 PM] Matthew N. Wright: Don't believe the posts?
[9/10/12 3:51:37 PM] Matthew N. Wright: Or don't believe that I'm sorry for the backlash of this troll?

[9/10/12 3:51:52 PM] Roger Ver: I don't believe that you intended for it to be a prank from day one.
[9/10/12 3:52:07 PM] Roger Ver: I'm sure you are sorry that you lost the bet.

[9/10/12 3:53:31 PM] Matthew N. Wright: I had discussed the prank with johnthedong, Vicente, and several others beforehand. It was all a show. I heard the arguments as to why it "must have been a scam", but regardless of how it looks, I was caught up in the entertainment.
[9/10/12 3:54:09 PM] Matthew N. Wright: I'm not sorry for trolling the community (it really needed it and I believe I have helped push through some new changes), I'm just sorry so many people who I thought would laugh at it ended up just getting hurt by it. That wasn't intentional.

[9/10/12 3:56:20 PM] Roger Ver: I think your best course of action at this time would be to stop lying about it being a joke from day one.  Then post an apology on the forum telling everyone that you thought you were going to win the bet,  and that you are sorry that you never had the money to make good on your half of the bargain.

[9/10/12 3:59:16 PM] Matthew N. Wright: cbeast has suggested the same thing but I am not sure what an apology would do. Although I know I stepped over a line of sorts, there are people trying to use what I say against me legally at this moment (including Vladimir) and I am not sure what an apology to the community would result in

"The most important part of this is to get people to realize that they represent Bitcoin with everything they do"

Matthew,  you should be ashamed.

phantomcircuit,

How about you stop goofing around on the forum and threatening me over IRC and pay me back the ~23,000 BTC you owe me.
They are currently worth over $250,000 and you have owed them to me for months.

The Bitinstant guys are helping Romney by offering this.  I am sure they will expect a seat in his administration for this if he wins.

To activate the full wallet feature:
1. Setup or access a wallet on blockchain.info/wallet from your computer.
2. Connect your iPhone to the internet via the same IP address that you accessed the wallet on your computer from.
3. Install the block chain app.
4. The app will have full wallet functionality.  Create a new account,  or pair it with an existing one.


If you don't follow the steps above,  it will only allow you to view bitcoin transactions.

If the above is true,  how are you able to send email / SMS updates each time a payment is sent or received from a particular Bitcoin address inside a My Wallet?
It does seem that My Wallet does know each user's public keys.

Can you elaborate?

Thanks!

This problem is still being experienced by new users of the iphone app.

This is needed.
I often show the Bitmit site durring my presentation of Bitcoins to people in Japan.
It would be helpful if there was NOT porn on the front page.

Bitinstant is working on exactly this.

Amir is too busy doing youtube interviews to be bothered with doing the right thing for all the Bitcoinica customers.

Patrick is too busy threatening me over the lawsuit to be bothered to do the right thing and actually avoid the lawsuit in the process.

[18:31:12] <phantomcircuit> ......, suggest to him strongly to drop the suit
[18:31:23] <phantomcircuit> he's going to regret it more than anything he's ever done in his entire life
[18:32:11] <phantomcircuit> that's a promise

I would enjoy listening to any Bitcoin related podcasts.

Currently www.freetalklive.com talks a bit about bitcoin several times per week.

I would like to add that Erik Voorhees also does a fantastic job with interviews.
His style is much calmer than mine.

Some examples here:

If anyone has other major media interview requests,  I am happy to help any time.

Does anyone know who the person in the photo on the wall is?
I am sure he was placed there with deliberate effort.

I can't currently go into all the details,  but my math and screen shots are correct.
The screenshot only shows 10% of each deposit.  $100 x 10 = $1000 (~100000 yen) minimum deposit.

If you don't want to believe me that is fine, but I think my past bitcoin reputation speaks for itself.

Feel free to google (Roger Ver Bitcoin) and you will find plenty of background.

Does anyone know how to download the video and put it on youtube?

Brian of coinbase.com made this funny photo from the video:

I like this video also.
Does anyone know why they don't have it public on youtube?

I replied to your very interesting PM several hours ago.
I look forward to working with you in regards to it.
Feel free to email me directly at any time roger at memorydealers.com
