You are hilarious!!! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Of course I'll delete your messages, you come to my thread and start calling me a liar... Zero tolerance for people like you. I did not give you any kind of freedom to meddle in my business. For me, you are just just another crazy Internet guy... Obvious conflict of interest. Why don't you make it a self moderated topic sour you are going to suppress people who are against you? There's being far more [false/misleading/whatever] accusations on bitcointalk that aren't deleted. Seriously, moderation here needs a review.

If you are in the US through and might be interested in collecting, send me a PM to work something out.
You might want to look for Canadians rather Americans. Unless the US has recently absorbed Canada and I never noticed. If you look back early in his thread you'll find one of his investors actually met up with him - that could be a place to start. If it was a scam from the start then that'll be a sock-puppet account he's abandoned - but I don't think that's what happened. Thanks Deprived, Canada* - I thought he was in the US. Not really a good time for BTC investments in general - bitcoinrain, mpoe bonds, Ian bake well, panic over ziggap..

He hasn't replied on Skype, email or answered any calls on his phone. It doesn't matter what we think of him, this indicates that he's a scammer. We'll definitely know on the 29th. But, you don't have to be in the dark for that long, it's our money and we deserve to know what's going on. Here's his information (which he provided or was publicly available) to contact him.

Any comment on the drama in the Bakewell thread; has he contacted you at all or made any payments?
Either way I'm a lot more pissed off ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) As I said in the bakewell thread, Avalon might reclaim his ASIC preorders (but this is a slim chance)Other than that, not much more to say, reclaiming the debt would be difficult as I am not located in Canada.

Thanx for your answers. I do however have one more question for ya. The issuer will buy back shares by request at face value after fees. What do you have backing up this statement above? Let's say a security flaw is found on bitfunder.com and there's a "bank run" - situation, where many wants to withdraw their deposits at the same time. In such scenario there won't be any buyers, so you'll have to buy them back yourself. From where will you get the funds to do this? I assume one part is from selling the shares within the bond (ASICMINER, S.DICE, etc), but do you have some pile of cash lying around as well? I realize the scenario above might not be very realistic, but I still find it good to know. //Stenkross My bitcoins and assets added together is much larger than the fund, and of course there's actually liquidating the assets BTCINVEST owns. Even assuming that we lose 100%, I will still be able to buyback with my personal funds. (Not just bitcoin, but fiat too). However, keep in mind there's always the risk of me dying in an accident. There's no dead man's switch yet, but I will consider it if this gets much larger.

Could this be a direct result of the lack of LTC development I keep hearing about?
Litecoin doesn't need to be developed. Its code is 99.999% of Bitcoin code. Except of course, without all the fixes and new features / improvements. 99.9% of former Bitcoin code, sure, but not current bitcoin code.

No where here does a moving USD value really matter since nothing is being converted to it, or based on it. Even if you consider his personal profit, it's all based on BTC, based on the businesses BTC profits. If you do not agree that the shares are not worth X of a moving USD target, then you should base your decision to buy or sell shares on that. When were your calculations based off of? When BTC had droped to 75btc Thursday night? at 90btc the day before? at 93btc the price as I type this, or what you estimate btc/usd pricing could be at in 2weeks, or any future point in time? Sorry if this sounded a bit brash, I just wanted to make my point clear of how I look at it. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) not harsh at all, thanks for trying to make it more clear. my calc was just a rough 50mill * 0.0001 * 90usd. i anoticed he listed profits in usd? How capital is held (i.e. in which currency/ies) is a key part of determining valuation. This isn't stated - only implied as being USD by results being given in USD (with BTC only estimated). Now Ukyo appears to be saying capital is held as BTC. How capital is held is important in at least 2 respects: 1. It determines how the assets/book value of the company changes when exchange-rate moves (which of BTC/USD valuations is the one that changes? It could be both if by default balanced holdings are held.). 2. Trade volume is constrained to an extent by capital (received USD can't instantly be converted into BTC). The upper-bound of that volume is set in the currency capital is, by default, held in. If held as USD when idle then a rise in BTC means max volume (in BTC) falls. Vice-versa if held in BTC. Would be nice if issuer could confirm Ukyo's statement that BTC value doesn't change - i.e. all idle funds are held in BTC. THis would also clarify Ukyo's statement that all profits are in BTC - which is clearly only true if no/limited USD are held. If X% profit is made on a trade then whether that profit is in BTC or in USD depends entirely on whether the profit is left in USD or converted to BTC immediately. Put simply: If exchange rate is $100=B1 and company makes 5 BTC profit. Then exchange-rate rises to $250=B1. Does the company still have 5 BTC (and a LOT of $) more than before the trade or $500 more (and a LOT less BTC in total)? Obviously if BTC fell then the figures would be reversed (holding USD would be better). Issue isn't so much which is right/wrong - but which is the currency investors need to value this in? Considering that this is listed on a bitcoin stock exchange, you'd expect them to hold funds in BTC.

itay3856 has just registered on coinlenders ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Verification documents submitted were junk (does he think I don't check?) Marked as scammer, thanks!

Is this a case where one could legitimately "double spend" ? If OP tried the same transaction again, this time with a fee, and it was picked up first because of this, would the old transaction be discarded as a double spend? Or would the new attempt be discarded simply for being newer?
Nodes who has this TX in their memory pool will discard the new TX. However, as nodes probably already dropped it due to lack of fees, it means that this "double spend" will take priority. This is why you NEVER trust 0conf txes.

FYI, if you're talking to me don't expect a response because I know whatever you said was stupid.

Just received the following PM; Nope just know 1000% for sure now that your penis size erect is under 3 inches.
Goodnight.
Great way to present yourself! You are now ignored for wasting my time.

I am so offended!
I'm not going to waste any more of my time with you, perhaps in a few months you'd look back at what I posted earlier and wonder why you were so stupid.

Actually put your coin where your mouth is, if i don't have a scammer tag within the next 3 months you owe me 10 BTC
Now I think you legitimately have a mental disorder. You don't bet on something when the incentive to not perform such an action outweighs the rewards of performing that action. It's like making a 1 million btc bet with pirate, of course hes' going to pay out and collect half a million bitcoins from your bet. Get a real fucking domain name.

Oh no i actually didnt read that, and how i can know for sure it was 36 hands is because i use a double down every loss strategy. So far 100 Chips Won by justdave3996 of SWC from a 10 chip buy in Ya were obviously scammers ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) 0.1 BTC. Wow!!!111 I guess that's impressive for someone who buys $65 worth of bitcoin at a time and lives off freerolls. Don't worry, in about a few months either you'd be realizing how utterly retarded you are at this very moment or disappeared because nobody's playing or you ran off with the pot. Here is how you successfully launch a bitcoin gambling site without much rep: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=138047.0
