I. Social engineering is the #1 threat you face. Appallingly coded pieces of crap made by mentally feeble dorks (such as Tor or Bitdaytrade) are defeated through technical means all the time, sure. Nevertheless, if you’re not mentally feeble and you’re not coding a piece of crap the possibility of technical breach shall be and should be the least of your concerns. Mind that BitInstant lost a few hundred BTC in a social engineering attack last year, mind that Lavabit ended up closed through a social engineering attack last monthi, mind that even the NSA, for all its lavish expenditure out of ill gotten proceeds and all its advertised (if false) abundance of young bright minds and qualified engineer hands has pretty much abandoned technical attacks and is concentrating primarily on social engineering tactics.
Social engineering is your enemy, social engineering will stay your enemy. Permanently, your biggest enemy. If you don’t have plans to fight this beast in all its multifacetious forms you don’t have plans to survive, and that’s how it is.

i. Yes, the fiat courts and their orders are no different from the famished Ghanaian and his friends in this context : thieves, the lot of them.

Herp derp.
Again: No, seriously. You need to chill out and read, gain a perspective. You're in no position to tell me what's what. Curiosity is fine and good, ignoring sense and authority to rehash the same broken assumptions over and over is not.

IS someone interested? Im willing to give copy vouches to known and trusted people.
You'd do a lot better gauging interest if you didn't present your "service" in a red-arrowed, "act now!" sort of IM sales letter style. Especially with notes to "hesitators" that assure you're loading legally because you say so. And especially moreso if you got in the WoT, established a reputation, and saw here. Pretty much the same spiel goes here, though I suppose you can nix the sales letter line and replace the "loading legally because you say so" with "somehow special because you mentioned Panama." |

I think it's time to start supporting p2p type exchange architectures like the ngccc (colored coins) Project... they need help and I bet money helps, too. We can't complain if we don't help. . The point was made in January. More importantly, money used to support broken ideas does not help. Much in the same way that using broken exchanges and hoping they'll work out because people are nice though incompetent does not help. a little bit of conspiracy: exchanges are closed, because there is need to have decentralized exchange. bitcoin is product of some us&a intelligence service and they need community to continue development more  Neither does conspiracy help. Play pretend exchanges do not close "because" anything other than the fact that they are play exchanges, and as such they cannot hold. So, with no btct and no bitfunder what other options we have?
Havelock if they are able to continue there business now with there move to Panama. And then we have Cryptostocks, im not a huge fan of how Kumala, Cryptostocks owner and Vircurex majority owner has treated the minority owners in Vircurex, but i guess Cryptostocks will probably be the last of the BTCstockexchanges to still stand. They will probably not get affected by any actions SEC or any other USA based government organization can take. You "have" Cryptostocks in the same manner that you've "had" all the rest of the play pretend exchanges, including GLBSE, including btct, and you'll continue to "have" them until such time as people stop putting hopes, dreams, and money into broken operations which themselves hope to soak up that money from uninformed people playing at "investing" instead of getting informed, along with play-pretend exchanges that facilitate said operations. Hoping is not investing, no matter how it's crafted so as to seem like it. This won't be "fixed" by moving on to another platform fueled by hope, whether it's cryptostocks, whether it's P2P, whether some boogeyman in a suit comes or not. Bitcoin isn't a nice person who cares about people's aspirations and desires and wants to help people out. So long as some people pretend that Bitcoin is their personal friend and nice graphics and good intentions have anything to do with investing, this will be said again and again, every time: GPG contracts. Security that isn't based on the limitations of a "slick" website. Actual IPOs from actually planned out, accountable entities. Yes, there's a fee. You're paying for that which works, which in the end is all that's worth paying for. No, I'm not especially nice in that In-N-Out Burger sort of way (though I'm just PR, you don't have to deal with me at all to use the exchange). The lies, the sugar-coating, the beating around the bush, is exactly for cheap food service and has no place in BTC finance. Plenty of people have thrown a fit over these facts, I'm sure plenty of people will continue to do so, and will continue to lose their money. MPEx will be right here. |

Nope, there is a great challenge and the game is addictive, trust me.
Right. Nobody cares how many threads you start, how many socks you get starting yet more threads, how many "no rly trust me" appeals you make, or how many weeks you wait between being told to fuck off and coming back with more scammy bullshit. The message is get lost. It's the only thing the message will ever be, by now. |

Known thieves? Care to elaborate? I used them for a long time.
It's linked. Read. Read more. OP, creating a mythology about demonstrably retarded asshats isn't doing anyone any favors, either. Incompetence and thievery aren't necessarily, or even frequently, organized. |

Oh wow, you are absolutely right. Thank you very much! You're welcome  This exchange kinda made my forumday. Well done. |

Gigadice aims to become the perennial leader of the Bitcoin gambling community.
Just like all the other anonymous nobodies who will succeed because vision, right? Get in the WoT, see here, work from what's sane and correct rather than what you've seen sketchy "businesses" trying to pass off here, it'll work much better. |

I was pumped. I would lean back, put my hands behind my head and wait for blowjobs.
As I suspect you've meanwhile realized, this would be the root of the problem. Value doesn't appear in a vacuum, you must work for it. There's no requirement that you build everything yourself, but at a minimum you'll need to do the work of researching, understanding, and verifying. A lot of people have indeed showed up this past spring, many of whom have fared worse than you, many of whom are still in the process of pissing time and money away on scams that will keep recurring so long as as the principle of work is eschewed in favor of "I'd like to be rich now, who wants to make me?". I'd say your fairly mature attitude towards your own failure suggests you're at least a step ahead of that crowd. So welcome, read up, and don't fuckin' do it again. |

When was the last time anyone successfully withdrew any amount from Intersango? I am having terrible trouble getting my bitcoins out of there.
Read up on the "people" pushing the "service" you're using before you hand over BTC. Continuing to divert funds to the incompetent is a bad move. |

I talked with him before the job and he seemed like a nice guy. Also I would like to advice you to read the topic I linked in one of my posts, because he ripped me off and not the other way around.
See, "I talked with him and he seemed like a nice guy" is exactly, but exactly, what you don't want your arrangements to hinge upon (unless you do, in which case starting scam threads and having drawn out fits over a single job doesn't make much sense). It's not about who ripped off whom. It's about creating a shoddy construct on which "work" is expected to progress, and inevitably doesn't. Stop doing that. |

OP, hiring unknown people casually but with specific expectations is a rather poor recipe for anything good (except dumb luck, perhaps). Get in the WoT, learn to make contracts, and you'll likely avoid this sort of thing. Goes both ways, ofc. |

I am annoyed that you have lied, passed off another image from another's blog as your own in an attempt to get referrals for this ponzi.
Lurk moar. This account has been posting scammy marketing nonsense aimed at people who don't bother to read for quite a while. |
