ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT
BitFury Group – Additional Equipment

In March 2014, Digital CC Management (DCC Management) agreed to enter into four Purchase Orders (POs) with BitFury Group Limited (BitFury) for the purchase of US$4 million of bitcoin mining hardware.

As part of the purchase of the US$4 million of bitcoin mining hardware, the POs contain special terms and conditions (Purchase agreement) in relation to the provision of an additional 566TH (Terahash) (Additional Equipment) of Bitcoin mining equipment, binding DCC Management to contingent profit sharing obligations. The Additional Equipment was provided from BitFury to Digital CC for $0 upfront cost.

On 30 June 2015 a termination agreement was entered into by the two parties releasing each other of all the obligations as stipulated in the purchase agreement. As part of the termination agreement BitFury waived the June 2015 power and hosting fee payable of US$107,629 and DCC Management transferred all the mining hardware acquired under the purchase agreement to Bitfury for nil consideration. The written down value of the equipment on 30 June 2015 was nil. The gain on sale of the equipment of $107,629 has been recorded as other income (refer Note 7) in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

DOGEBTC exchange rate at crapsea is 10% higher then bittrex, poloniex and BTC38.

People's buying DOGE like crazy to get money out, same shit was happening with MtGox few weeks before the collapse.

I wouldn't be surprised to find out BigVerm himself is arbitraging DOGE on his own exchange.

Can't wait for them to go bankrupt.

I took a look last week, shills were having a field-day selling shit-tickets out of purgatory. It's an embarrassing state of affairs.

Quote
In addition, the company also secured money transmission services in the US through an agreement with US based payments company, CoinX. Digital X said the partnership is expected to help accelerate the development and commercialisation of AirPocket by up to two years, as the company will leverage CoinX's already established and licensed banking relationship in 40 US states.

As a result, the company was able to publicly launch the beta version of AirPocket on September 29, 2015.

One would be hard-pressed to find a single company that Eugeni "Zhenya" Tsvetnenko hasn't fucked up to the max after attaching himself to it. Since Megan Burton is some sort of security expert, it's safe to say she's done her due diligence, thus well versed in Tsvetnenko's background, but has opted to bed down with him in the above mentioned dealing.

For that reason I'd say that CoinX's user base best reconsider their position with that entity, otherwise they'll soon be crying' like Mintsy's users are doing now thanks to Tsvetnenko's involvement.

Just google the principal of the BTC mining operation. He has a "SCAM, SCAM, SCAM" trail extending back to at least 2006. His MO was a "premium SMS" service that signed up unwitting users, and charged them exorbitant monthly fees to send them the name of "their one true love"

This is nothing BTC wants to be associated with, another long-term computer scamster. http://dragontail.wordpress.com/tag/zhenya-tsvetnenko/ http://ideceive.blogspot.com/2006/08/phone-scam-your-1-true-love.html http://www.callercenter.com/blg/articles/love-calculator-scam-breaks-hearts/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/zhenyatsvetnenko

Either Paul Vernon doesn't know how to use Google, or scammers gravitate to one another. I'm leaning toward the latter.

The colourful life of Russian-born Perth-based entrepreneur Eugeni "Zhenya" Tsvetnenko has included everything from allegations of running a mobile SMS scam through to flying US rap star Snoop Dogg to perform at his 29th birthday.

Then there are also the seven houses in Perth, the $600,000 wedding ceremony, and a total net worth estimated by BRW at $107 million in 2009. All this from a university dropout who started with $200 in his bank account.

Tsvetnenko started on the path to making his fortune in 2002 with a business that enabled customers to receive paid SMS entertainment services on their mobile phones, and moved on to mobile advertising.

Today he has interests in a range of businesses including digital signage and advertising through Lavish Channel, which supplies custom TV programming to more than 200 hairdressing salons across Australia. He also has an interest in the music label Zhenya Records.

FROM Russia with love, Zhenya Tsvetnenko gave his bride a wedding fit for royalty today.

With a price tag of $1 million, the nuptials of the 31-year-old Russian-born businessman to Lydia Gaugg, 29, wasn’t a bring-your-own affair.

Wedding co-ordinators Ryan McManus and Paul Hurford said everything had to live up to the "sheer elegance’’ theme.

A silver carriage drawn by four horses delivered the bride to the front of the Peel Manor House, in Baldivis, just after 5pm yesterday.

The Mt Pleasant couple, who met at the Paramount nightclub in Northbridge about four years ago, invited about 120 guests to the luxurious five-hectare, 16-suite property for the ceremony.

Butterflies were released as the pair took their first steps as man and wife in front of their friends and family, some of whom had been flown in from Russia, America and interstate.

A grand marquee lined with $12,000 of black silk, a white parquetry floor and illuminated by crystal chandeliers, greeted guests for the reception.

Dinner choices included double-crumbed deep-fried WA camembert with plum sauce for entree, chicken Florentine or peppered beef for main, followed by a local cheese platter.

And then there was a one-metre fountain of Belgian chocolate and strawberries for dessert.

The bridal table had decanted bottle of the 1986 Penfolds Grange Hermitage, worth $2000 each, and said to be the couple's favourite drop.

Nearly $4000 was spent on the fuel bill to power the generators of the $80,000 marquee while the flower bill topped $60,000.

At noon today, the couple will fly by helicopter to Perth airport where they’ll board a plane destined for a honeymoon in South-East Asia.

Mr McManus, a wedding planner with the manor for the past eight years, said the wedding was one of the most lavish he had prepared.

"It wasn't the biggest in terms of the number of guests but certainly in the grandeur of the event,'' he said.

Family friend David Buttsworth said the wedding reflected the couple's tastes.

"They are very extroverted,'' he said.

"It is a big party but the wedding is a lot like the couple - simple and elegant.''

A recent survey by Bride To Be magazine reported that Australian couples spent $39,114 on an average wedding.

The lavish ceremony, however, pales in comparison to week-long wedding celebrations of James Packer and now wife Erica Baxter on the French Riviera in June last year.

Australia’s richest man and his bride had two ceremonies - a simple ceremony at a rustic French town hall, conducted by a local mayor, then a bigger party for about 150 guests on the water.

Mrs Packer wore a $100,000 Christian Dior gown as she walked down a 150m white carpet to a floral archway overlooking the Mediterranean, where Mr Packer waited in a dinner suit.

Both ceremonies were in line with a WA trend of couples saying no to church services.

Australian cryptocurrency firm DigitalBTC bought $10.1m worth of bitcoin in Q2 of this year, the company's latest quarterly report reveals.

This brings the amount of bitcoin the company has purchased over the past 12 months to almost $29.7m.

The report also shows DigitalBTC – the first crypto firm to list on Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), under Digital CC Limited – closed the quarter with an inventory of $1m in bitcoin.

Nevertheless, the company reported a negative operating cashflow of $1.2m in Q2 of 2015 having received around $10.8m for operating activities, but spending close to $12m.

Expansion

Initially a bitcoin mining company, DigitalBTC has so far expanded into bitcoin trading as well as developing both retail and consumer applications.

The company's private liquidity platform digitalX Direct achieved unaudited revenues of $5.5m in the quarter, which is a 45% increase on the revenue generated in the first quarter of the year.

Over the past three months, the company has been exploring an additional venture into the global remittances market with a soon-to-launch peer-to-peer solution called AirPocket.

"This enables value and cash transfers from anyone to anywhere in the world, and for the value to be easily exchanged across mobile messaging platforms," the report states.

The company aims to initially roll out AirPocket in Latin America and the Caribbean using $3.5m raised through a share placement.

Back in February, Digital CC Limited announced it had suffered a net loss of $2.3m after tax in the six-month period leading up to 31st December 2014.

(KPCB is a well-known technology investor that has made notable investments in companies such as AOL, Google, and Amazon.com.) This is KPCB’s first investment in the bitcoin world, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Anyone got any detective stuff that shows them commenting having shares or partnership or involvement in. Lot of stuff being posted already love it when a community works together and puts all the stuff down in one thread. Keep it up as I am going to be putting a case forward to whoever owns or part of it and taking relevant action against them and to see what happens if anything. I doubt much will happen but no harm in trying.

Bitcoin miner listed and ramped on ASX

After ASX-listed scams run out of money, their shell can be used for another scam, with this process repeated ad infinitum and ad nauseam. It has now become standard practice for failed Australian companies to announce a splendid scrip acquisition immediately followed by a ramp. Naturally, the sudden ramps of these previously illiquid and unheralded companies is entirely engineered by related parties of the operators, it has absolutely nothing to do with a "market" outcome.

Macro Energy Limited (MEJ.AX), previously known as Verus Investments Limited, is an investment company that has a long proud track record of destroying shareholder value. Its latest half yearly report discloses remaining assets of around $3.5m, predominantly in cash, and 218m shares outstanding. Today MEJ announced it is acquiring Digital CC Holdings, which through its subsidiary digitalBTC engages in vaguely described operations involving bitcoin mining and trading.

http://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20140313/pdf/42nbwgj1sml1kc.pdf

Whoa, is this real?  DigitalCC was still around recently, see for example this.  The company was notable for being the only publicly owned mining company (that I know of) and therefore obliged to publish quarterly financial reports.  IIRC, their owner/CEO has been Zhenya Tsvetnenko for some time.

http://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20140313/pdf/42nbwgj1sml1kc.pdf

The scrip acquisition of Digital CC is to be accompanied by a share consolidation, a $9m capital raising, and share options to insiders. Following the announcement, the scheme operators immediately ramped the share price of MEJ by 50%. The ramp had nothing whatsoever to do with the "market", it was a predetermined planned outcome for the illiquid share. On the previous trading day, 9000 shares of MEJ were traded on the ASX at around $0.026, for a daily trading value of around $230.



Revaluation ramps such as these have not only come to be condoned, but to be expected as part of the market. Little is known about the actual operations of digitalBTC, but what can be said with certainty is that the company is controlled by criminals who without compunction manipulate "market" prices. This in and of itself should be enough to disqualify such schemes as investments. But in Australia scamming is an accepted way to make money, as long as you succeed at it. The head of digitalBTC made his money from various adult entertainment and horoscope SMS frauds, yet is still hailed as a paragon of entrepreneurship.

Australian multi-service bitcoin company digitalBTC will make history today as the first bitcoin-focused company to trade on a major mainstream stock exchange.

It's a very interesting story. They have already mined at least 5100 BTC, and have said they want to release a BTC debit card, and create applications that use BTC. http://www.digitalbtc.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/03/digitalBTC-Trading-and-Market-Update.pdf
The executive chairman of the company Zhenya Tsvetnenko has already enjoyed significant success in other tech ventures.

In this video - The Many Stories of Natalie Hammond - Natalie Hammond grabs children in the hall and pulls them into Room 9 (conference room), pushing a button to lock the door, placing a chair under the door handle to help keep it close, and forces the left side of her body to the door to further help keep it close and Adam Lanza out. Adam proceeds to shoot through the door hitting Natalie four times on her left side, proof of bullets holes depicted in the official crime scene photo above of Room 9's door, all the while Natalie continues to barricade the door after being shot four times by bullets of a Bushmaster XM15-E2S rifle.

So this whole ordeal is out of my hands since I have limited involvement with the business side of Mintsy, but I thought I would update folks with what I know especially since I promoted it in its early stages. Mintsy is a standalone joint venture between Cryptsy, and DigitalBTC.

Cryptsy was to provide the development DigitalBTC the mining, and hashrate. Without discussing the legal side of this they pulled out the the deal rather abruptly. Leaving everyone in a lurch. I know Paul who is still on the board of directors for Mintsy is trying to find another partner/provider, and then find a way to refund or recover lost work for those that had contracts.

I did find this article and I can only assume it may be related.
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/digitalbtc-reports-6-77-million-first-year-net-loss-management-nonetheless-bullish/

About all I know at this time. If I can find out more I will post it.

Be nice if there was a bit more transparency then. Mintsy.co is still signing up new people, there is zero indication of any issues on the front page and I've been told refunds are not an option. To me looks an awful lot like a scam that took several hundred dollars from me and many others I'm sure.

I asked about the new signups you cant actually buy a contract at this time. Still no word on a new provider since DigitalBTC pulled out of Mintsy. Has anyone written to DigitalBTC?

Any chance you could push for some movement on refunds waiting for 100% to be back on line could be anytime and later than sooner only going to cause more problems. Do you have any influence on refunds or just part of programming coding and promoting though cryptsy thought where related to crypto?

I can talk to Paul some of it is in legal limbo at the moment I am guessing. Its like going to dinner with a buddy and having him walk out sticking you with the check. I do think something needs to be done sooner rather than later so ill address it with him.
