Keep pretending the reason mpex has so few stocks is because there are too many scams.
I include terrible IPO cash grabs in my definition of: "scam." Actually, imo, Havelock has less "useful" projects than MPEx: Neo & Bee on Havelock; S.BBET & S.NSA on MPEx (profitability to be determined). Havelock does not list every stock that comes to its doorstep. It does have requirements and decent procedures to prevent scams. *cough*VTXlabcoinMintsparePetaDealCoCBTC*cough* *coughmoar*kenilworthtobelistedonhavelocksoonLOL*hack*

Havelock currently lists 17 stocks, giving 14 unique offerings. Around 6-7 of these are for mining companies, 2 are for banking operations and 1 is for an investment fund into a package of bitcoin startups.
Almost every one of these offerings is doing more for the world of bitcoin than the 4 stocks on MPEx. And none of them funnel money directly into the pocket of the owner of the exchange.
They make their money by collaborating with unscrupulous "CEOs" that IPO outrageously overpriced/inept/incomplete/non-existent/non-tangible ideas that somehow get labeled "assets" (as opposed to liabilities). Homework assignment: List every Havelock 'asset' that is currently trading above IPO price. The market is trying to tell you something.

Oh good. This thread again. There is a reason there are no real stocks listed on mpex and never will be. There is a reason no other real world exchange or business operates like mpex. Real compared to what? Are you criticizing MPEx for not listing every scam that comes across it's doorstep like Havelock and Cryptostocks?

Eyes functioning as normal. 30,000 usd to join a scheme which has no sources of revenue besides the 30btc reg fee and whatever is made from the losses of its users. Literally just handing money over to mpoe and hoping some more rich idiots join the scheme later on and lose their money gambling on the site with futures/options.
Totally legit business. Deserves to be up in the finance hall of fame with JP Morgan..

Thank you Duffer1 for contacting Burneside and getting him to send that email to everyone.
Oh that wasn't me. I was just following the btc-tc thread when he happened to post about it. How to use your API key: for getting records/history of Labcoin from BTC.TC, click link above and then paste your API that you received in email after the equals "=" eg. for trade history should look like below: https://btct.co/csv/trades?key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Clarification Point: Duffer the BTC return with fiat appreciation is factored in unless they run with the coins or the security is broken even after the penetration tests then use section 2 or the case where Mint ends up in a liquidity crisis, I also presume that havelock will not retain the bitcoins in this case since all the IPO is accounted for in the prospectus. I don't see how it's factored. They'll still have your Bitcoins (80% of which magically belongs to them because... screw you, pay me). If they should miraculously be capable of achieving ROI for investors they'll just force buy back the outstanding 20% @ ipo price. It's explicitly written into the contract that they can do that.

Havelock clearly does not have investor's best interest in mind. This scam, like much of the Havelock portfolio, is DESIGNED to create a loss for anyone who puts money in. 1 - You get the privilege of buying these scammers a new business. You take more than 100% of the risk * and if all goes according to their undemonstrated plan, and unproven (and unknown) team, you get 1/500,000 of the profit. *- A contract that guarantees you a loss
- Forced buyback for any reason
- Forced Div shrinkage of up to 30% or more (seriously read their "DIVIDENDS" section) your very thin slice of the pie you buy for them is actually worth less than 20%; at their whim
- Variable contract terms clause and NO voting rights
2 - By the time these scammers get around to even deigning to provide you with a dividend, if all goes well (probably won't even be until 2015), the value of the BTC you invested will likely be worth far more than it is today. Anyone care to guess what the annual average value appreciation of Bitcoin itself has been? (Hint, it scales exponentially). There is no scenario, EVEN IF THIS BUSINESS IS SUCCESSFUL, where suckers (Havelock calls them "investors"), break even, let alone actually earn more than they put in. This is a blatantly obvious cash grab by scammers teamed up with the unscrupulous Havelock. I'd actually be willing to bet that Mintspare has already raised at least $125k USD for their startup capital. But instead of buying BTC at market they've contrived to take yours. They don't want a business, they want the value appreciation of your Bitcoins for themselves. This wouldn't even be a good deal if it was denominated entirely in USD.

Re the logo: ... They are quite different ...
You're blind. Edit: It does look nice though. Edit 2: Microsoft is still the first thing that comes to mind when I see it.

..the IPO contract.. Ha. You guys are trying to give MPOE-PR an aneurysm aren't you.

thanks for the replies so far. So places by Volume are 1. havelock 2. 796.com 3. crypto-trade 4. and cryptostocks is that correct? What experiences did you have with customer support, do they have one? (i wan't be goxed again ) Not a single one of those exchanges has an offering that came anywhere close to performing as well as BTC itself. Worse, ALL of their offerings lose value as BTC appreciates. On top of that, most stocks on havelock haven't even started paying divs (despite some being listed for a year), 796 is almost certainly fractional reserve (on top of .3% just to withdrawal BTC), Cryptostocks lists known scams without regard for anyone or anything other than money. If you want to "invest" in anything crypto, don't. Or at the very least learn to MPEX.

Alberto Armandi is one of the biggest bitcoin scammers here. He scammed thousands from glbse as well.
Ya, too bad we didn't know he was involved until it was too late.

2 - You won't attract serious investors, as is. At this point anyone sending you BTC is a sucker or a gambler.
I simply posted facts. I don't even see how it's that unbelievable. I'm not calling you a scammer. I'm pointing out you have yet to prove any of what you've asserted. While also pointing out very good reasons to be skeptical. I hope you're legit, and successful.

... Business? Business plan?... Name?....WoT?.......Why am i even....................
Yes, I understand that some information is lacking. Everything that could be of any value is missing. You will just have to believe me.. You're going to have rummage through my post history for my sob story where I explain how I got scammed out of 182 btc recently. A near total loss of all my assets. You will not be believed, nor should you be. 1) I offered to let a trusted third party verify what I say is true for serious investors. 1 - You should have done this first instead of putting the cart before the horse 2 - You won't attract serious investors, as is. At this point anyone sending you BTC is a sucker or a gambler. ..compensation...unbelievable...skeptical...risk... Yep.

Hopefully most of you will agree that I've offered a fair assessment of this websites value. ... Business? Business plan?... Name?.... WoT?....... Why am i even.................... If you're not scamming then go public with your identity and a DPO. Otherwise you're a scammer.

...knew Alberto was the guy behind it...
This is not proven by the information you provided. The circumstantial evidence (that we have) overwhelmingly points to the conclusion that Fabrizzio knew Alberto is Sam Noi, but we don't have direct proof yet. The circumstantial evidence is so strong that hard evidence almost certainly exists, but we haven't found it yet.

I had 100 Labcoin shares in BTCT.co. The exchange is gone and now the company is worthless.
What should I do to join this initiative?
Contact Virtualspade letting him know you wish to join the complaint. Once the contract with the lawyer is funded you will be asked to provide details to the lawyer directly.

I understand why you don't want to be named (Govt not being respectful of state marijuana laws.. offering unlicensed securities..), but the name in this space is everything. It is critically important.
What marketable skills are you offering your potential clients?
