At this moment I'll just wait and see what happens with the first 100 MSC and consider any price change after that.
Thanks again for you feedback

Just wondering if you have any relationship with buymastercoin?

No, there is no relationship with Buymastercoin.

Great.  I thought we almost flushed that toilet website 'buymastercoins.com' when out of the blue pops up another one.  Can't people just focus on making legitimate business?  Why do they insist on making scams which take advantage of naïve?  
702  Economy / Service Discussion / Overstock rules! Bitcoin is already implemented on: January 11, 2014, 06:50:20 AM
Overstock expected to get bitcoin up and running by June.  However, do to the incredible ease of implementing bitcoin within a website - they were able to manage a working system in two weeks rather than 6 months!!!!

This is a testament to how easy it is to use bitcoin.  I suspect the good folks over at Coinbase had something to do with this.  Don't be surprised if you see other e-commerce retailers jump on this train in the coming weeks.  Retailers will be very impressed with how quickly and effortlessly they can get the whole bitcoin infrastructure into their site.

WOW!

To show my support - I am going there to buy something now.  I encourage you to do the same.

I'm now pleased to publicly announce that I will be joining the project full-time!

Thanks to the community for all your support to date Smiley

I'm so happy I . . .
 . . . I think I just wet myself.
Jeezus Christ Man!  That's fucking creepy.  But I am pretty happy about this too.  Obviously the project is much better off with Zath going full speed and fully committed. 

I am going to send three Thai ladies to his house to do his laundry, clean the house, and any other 'chores' he might need taken care of.

Cross post from the main thread:
Hey guys,

Having just finished up with our weekly dev sync con-call, I'm now pleased to publicly announce that I will be joining the project full-time!

The foundation has been working tremendously hard to attract quality talent to drastically speed up development and I can't express enough how excited I am to have the opportunity to dedicate significantly more time to Mastercoin.  We have a great team working on the project and with a significant number of new hires coming on board too and getting involved the next few months should be an exciting time!

I will be ceasing my current role and transitioning to working full time on development on 24 Feb.

Thanks to the community for all your support to date Smiley
Zathras
Oh thank god for this.  Finally a bit of really good news!!  Thanks Zathras!!!

For me who bought mastercoins at average 0.25 (first 5 at 0.419 and then 15 at 0.21) it does not feel good that thousands of coins is being dumped at 0.17.

Honestly this is a good thing- as long as mastercoin is not a total failure, then diluting JR's holdings is only a good thing in the long run. Someone mentioned that he is trying to take his initial ~1,500BTC investment back out. While I'm not 100% comfortable with that, the 145K mastercoin he still has left will be more then enough to give him ample incentive to keep working. :-)

Personally though- I'd be happier with MSC being sold for BTC to pay full time developers.
I think he should get his $1.5million original investment back out of the project, then spend another 45K mastercoin on hiring some real developers and a real project manager to get the progress stimulated into a highly advanced state.  Thereafter his 100K MSC will be worth shitloads. 

But as long as a hodge-podge team of come as you want folks operate in a loosely coupled group - Mastercoin will drift into oblivion. 

Look how awesome NXT's skin is.  They have a killer tight professional website and cover and forum and white paper and operation and team and others.  Why didn't Ron put all that stuff in place in the last 3 months?  Ron is travelling from Tel Aviv to Las Vegas, Miami speaking at conferences.  What the hell does that do?  Speaking at conferences is nothing if the team isn't making organized progress.  Ron is having the time of his life travelling around the world on MSC's dime.  But the project is drifting badly while others clearly are putting together very tight organized packages.  WTF?

最最亲爱的JR:
     你是要向你的妻子展示你所从事的不是游戏,是真金白银。另外你没钱交税了。。balabala
     所以你要急不可耐的卖掉一些你手中的msc
     我们非常赞赏你以家庭以老婆为第一的态度。
     BUT:你原来是要卖0.7的啊,可惜的是没卖出去。现在你的要价是0.17-0.2,我看这个价格也很难卖出去。
     亲爱的JR,要是在你交税前你没卖出去怎么办?
     面对你的窘境(交税)和你的男人责任(老婆要买LV包包),你不觉得0.1是一个很好的价格吗?
      Grin Grin Grin
     机不可失,时不再来哦,0.1不卖,就是0.05了哦。
     不卖的话没钱交税怎么办啊?不卖的话让老婆罚跪搓板了怎么办啊?不卖的话怎么和老婆开着法拉利周末去度假啊?

Man, you guys are all just one big jittery lot!  Crazy price swings in two days.  Who are the guys with NO confidence?  One negative word and then SELL!!!

I guess that is a result of cyrptocurrency Pump and Dump mentality.  So much pump and dump game going on.  Everyone tries to rush the exit faster than the others.  First indicator of a dump coming and everyone goes nuts.  Hilarious. 

Didn't anyone bother to think the protocol is still good and the coders are still working hard?  That doesn't matter - only thing that matters is beating your neighbor out the exit!!!  Run!!!! 

Fucking awesome discounts - I'll take them.

I'm not checking this tread often, but I see now that a bubble is about to burst. I am still interested to invest 300+ btc in the project as a long term investment. So let me know when price will drop bellow 0.08 btc. Wink
Not gonna happen until probably tomorrow or Friday.  Be patient.
709  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 05:42:25 PM
There are actually a lot of reasons, but the biggest is my wife. I would have been full-time on MSC a LONG time ago, but she is very risk adverse. I've posted about this many times before. I need to show her this is REAL and not just "magic internet money" Smiley
You need to be the man and sort her out.  She'll thank you later when she is filthy rich.  We all know the MSC concept is pure gold.  Now go build the god-damned thing with confidence.  

"Honey, I don't want you to go Bison hunting today - it is too dangerous"
"But if I don't go hunting for Bison, we'll spend the rest of our lives like the French eating snails"


Man up JR.  She'll be happy later.

We all took a risk on MSC - now put on man pants and go build it.  
710  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 05:37:10 PM
Still, it makes no sense for the founder of Mastercoin to announce publicly he wants to sell his coins.
It's such a dumb move
Precisely why 'lock out' agreements are made.  
711  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 05:35:26 PM
Something isn't right. Because saying you need 1500btc to cover your taxes sounds fishy.
But the tax reason sounds fishy, unless he owes more than $1 million in taxes. Which could be true, but I highly doubt.
He also said before that he wasn't going to sell a single MSC until 0.7, and that was a couple months ago.
Yeah, to me too.  Nobody who has a real job actually gets paid enough to have a $1million tax bill.  Maybe his rich uncle just died and left a shitload of capital gains in his lap.  Who knows.  Either way, Exodus buyers should have been forced into a 'lock-out' scheme to prevent this kind of market crash.  

For example the top 20 buyers should have been limited to MSC sales of no more than 2% of their holdings.  Founders who take early profits on project excitement - completely destroy the project.  In this thinly traded market - the problem of large founder dumps is multiplied by a large number.  

Can we retroactively enforce some 'lock-out' plan?  In view of JR's biased position, can we have the board consider this?

I REALLY wish I had made this thread self-moderated Sad
Censorship is evil.  I REALLY wish you wouldn't delete posts.  If someone posts a death threat which is credible - maybe then it is OK - otherwise one should refrain from moderating the communities opinion.  Clever guys like Klee know how to use the 'ignore' button.  Let them rely upon that.  But for one person to singly prevent others from hearing what another what them to hear - is pure corruption.  Please refrain from censorship until it hurts.
713  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 05:23:34 PM
only selling 3-6% of his stake; a move which will benefit Mastercoin a lot.
6% of JR's holdings amounts to far more than the entire markets sales for the last two months.  It is a HUGE amount.  The price crash is going to be very deep.  I doubt he'd be able to get .07 for 1000MSC.

He just said he wants around 0.2 for his coins. 0.07? Please. Dream on.

It's pretty obvious what you're trying to do here. Fuck off!
I am not talking about what 'he wants' I am talking about what 'he'll get' - big difference.  With the lack of confidence now surrounding the project - it is tainted for sure.  This is a disaster.  MSC is a disaster.  Of course, anyone could have predicted this as any system set up with no CEO/leader - is bound to aimlessly go nowhere.  Look at all the competitor projects with leaders - in a very short time, they caught up and passed MSC.  While the foundation took $100,000s and just threw them around as 'development coins' - with no real work or return being demanded - 'to attract more coders'.  Silly waste of funds / no leadership.  Is it a wonder NXT is going to eat MSC's lunch?

You've quoted yourself you twat. I didn't post that. You really are a manipulative ass.
Check again you moron - I didn't post the original content quoted.  Dumbass.

I'm getting a ton of PMs from interested buyers. This is very good Smiley
Then sell your lot and end the madness.  This slide will take forever to recover.  Now get to work as the CEO and ORGANISE a decent plan to success.  You have the most to lose and the most to gain.  Quit fucking about.
717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 05:12:10 PM

Those who were involved in the project were too busy to fool people based on their skills in Google's SEO (buymastercoin.org).
Yeah, that fucking buymastercoin.org was a serious blight on the whole project.  Fuck those guys.  Takes one filthy pig to shit in the food trough and fuck it up for everyone. 
718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 04:50:34 PM
I don;t get the panic, all this means is that JR will own less, and masteroin is gradually being less decentralised, this is great!

Too little, too late.
If mastercoin achieves what it could based on the idea. RIght now isn;t late, right now is really early for JR to be releasing the coins,
In normal investment deals, founders are 'locked out' from selling founder shares for a very long time after start up to prevent this sort of crash.  Looks like MSC WAS actually nothing more than a 'pump and dump' all this time.  What a shame.
719  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 03:11:12 AM
I hope to sell 3-6% of my total MSC holdings (5000-10000 MSC).
That's $1 - $2Million.  How the F did your tax bill get so high?
720  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MasterCoin Buyer/Seller Thread on: January 08, 2014, 02:57:15 AM
He should be full time starting yesterday not after the sale.
Why the fuck isn't Ron leading the effort?  The guy is a complete no show!
