Apparently he was successfully sued for $20k in 2018:

However, the story has a bizarre ending:


So who knows if he ever actually received the verdict telling him he owes $20k. All of his social media cuts off around 2015.

Right, I know your feelings have been very, very hurt over the years and its obviously been traumatic for you, but if you could move past that for just one minute... You don't have a single observable instance of DT1 using their authority and/or status for purposes of scamming? Not a single one? That's what this thread is about, after all... Just name the member and the scam and we'll look into it.

Uh oh, now you've taken a step backwards. Yes, we're all aware that these are the adjectives you want the forum to associate you most closely with, but its not very healthy to dwell on this point. We should move on. Let's try to focus on the topic on hand for starters: do you have any observable evidence that DT1 is actually running scams? If so, who and what are they? I don't mean stuff from literally years ago -- I mean now.

That's OK! Don't worry about it too much! You're quite welcome and don't be bothered as we all have your back, big guy!

I always wonder why cryptohunter never tagged me for my various unending and unforgiveable sins. It must have been out of pure compassion. The infinite size of that guy's heart, huh? Its unreal.

Well, seeing as how nobody ever provided any sort of evidence in the form of observable instances that DT1 is actively scamming users, I'm gonna call it a wrap and chalk this thread up to another observable instance of Butt Hurt.

That's OK, apology accepted. We all understand that you're quite fragile both emotionally and mentally and we are all rooting for you to get the help that you need. Just take your time and don't force your re-entry into society, let it come naturally. Also, make sure to attend your anger management courses! Don't want you running afoul of the terms of your probation... Congrats on making this big step forward!  <3

Hundreds of forum users that aren't alts of each other also talk to each other frequently.


But what ties those accounts together is a shared bitcoin wallet. That is (for the most part) foolproof evidence that those are alt accounts. If you don't have that kind of solid connection, you're just kicking up dust without purpose. I wouldn't even bother commenting on a "potential connection" without solid evidence. What's the point?


It was when it occurred, which was relatively recently. And nobody is asking iGO_Tech to "remove the flags" as everybody knows that's an impossibility.


None of this is true or correct.

Looking at the Apollo chart, it took the course of every project ever endorsed by McAfee...



I mean the guy's in jail now so its kind of a moot point to kick him while he's down. But obviously McAfee's presence is a perfect reverse barometer for judging the long-term strength of a project. I've known that for a couple years but its astounding how absolutely every project he ever put his name to either

a. flat out flopped
b. was a scam.

CCN even had to issue an apology to Apollo and McAfee for running an early story about how Apollo was cloned from NXT... seems like they were right the entire time.

I also have 3 good reports against this user, 2 were for plagiarism, yet he isn't banned. Mods have been going a bit easy on plagiarists recently for whatever reason, especially if they are beyond Member status. I try to make it as easy for them as possible, provide them with all the information necessary to demonstrate that plagiarism occurred, but they frequently get swept under the rug, left "unhandled" or else marked as "good" but no action taken on the offending account.

(for reference)

The new question: Is Bitcoin truly "a failure", if it was used more as a Store of Value than for "Coffee Transactions"?

My answer: No

While I consider the "store of value" narrative to be a bit of a lame copout ("we failed to make bitcoin feasible for microtransactions so let's invent this other quality for it to have as a replacement"), so long as anybody at all is still using it to conduct "online payments sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution", then its not a failure. If every last bitcoiner became a HODLer, at that point I would consider it to be a failure.

As long as some people continue to use bitcoin for that which it was designed and built, it cannot be a failure.

Good catch. Obviously yet another DeFi scam.


What about the similarities of the picture of their "team member" and some other person with a completely different name? Funny how they just ignored this point altogether, though if they were to address it, I'm pretty sure they would say "Oh, that's not our actual team member photo, it's a placeholder image used by the party we outsourced our website development to."

In any case, this is a definite scam project. I have supported your flag and will tag the OP.

Because iGO_Tech managed to come to an agreement with the Coinsbit exchange where he got refunded for a coin listing. Part of the agreement was to remove everything negative he'd written about Coinsbit, which was pretty much all of his posts. If you look at SinbadGuthrie's posts, they have nothing to do with Coinsbit.

I don't understand the connection between Trade Runner, iGO_Tech and SinbadGuthrie -- perhaps they made an agreement to include each other in their trust lists. It's bizarre to think Trade Runner and SinbadGuthrie are alts as they frequently talked to each other, though it wouldn't be the weirdest thing I've seen.

Garoffalo looking absolutely skeevy.

Man, what a blowout. 2 of my "easy picks" were total upsets. I think for my next pick I'll come up with something and then pick the opposite. Either that or hire a monkey to throw darts at a board, one or the other.



Turns out Rams were my only W, lol.

Well, sounds like this place isn't for you and you need to move on then. Continuing to threaten members here because you don't like what goes on is very petty and stupid. As I said earlier, if you are actually going to do any reporting to law enforcement then just do it. You don't have to tell us about your every little move. Just do it and stop talking about it.

Please, you have to give up this petty obsession with BayAreaCoins. You are threatening reporting him for violation of gun sales laws? Why? That has nothing to do with anything, least of all you. If you really insist on reporting this user to law enforcement, then just do it. No need to give us updates about it. His activity isn't hurting anybody. Find an instance where he actually scammed somebody, that would be much more interesting.

That's all well and good but McAfee has since pulled the plug on his involvement with this coin for almost a month now. Maybe he has residual holdings to pump but I doubt it. I think he's got more than enough on his plate to deal with for the time being. Ghost was probably the last case study of a McAfee pump job ever -- so it will go down in history for that. What a time to be alive. 

OK well the main thing is this is from back in April, back before you went truly insane, accusing everybody of working for Sportsbet. You didn't even get suspected of being game-protect until July, three months later, an accusation you defended yourself of on July 25th. So the point being, perhaps you tricked a casino into believing you were a sane person for a little while, which ultimately led to nothing of fruition, and for which you are now punishing them for... That's the best case scenario.

Who are y'all going with tomorrow? I just put in a non-dangerous parlay with Rams, Chiefs and 49ers to win ML -- comes out to 1.86x. I'm feeling pretty decent about it, but you never know of course. There's usually at least 1 good upset every week.

But in his original post he still says:


Are you saying gosha@e-coin is trying to set up Betnomi? Later on they said this:


Kind of seems like they were caught red handed... but of course the Betnomi support person swears they weren't... interesting story, needs more supporting evidence.

Thanks for the answer. I'm playing around with the wallet a little bit and am wondering if you could explain a bit more about what the end goal here is... To be able to move value through multiple blockchains, but I'm wondering what in your opinion gives the tokens their underlying value? I'm having a hard time putting it all together.

Were you using the bot incorrectly again?

The BotHive account still have a 25,000% gain rate overall, so whats a minor loss every now and then?

Just wait until the next bot comes out, Mothra.


Looks like the bot got trapped in a short position, tried to double-down and then triple-down... ouch.
