Interesting transcript with Dave from BFL I found on that reddit link. It confirms BFL doesn't have a set shipping date yet, and they are full of shit when it comes to shipping "next week". http://pastebin.com/HpxTwUNWColor me shocked. Ready for some more color? There is no 1164 SW Hillsdale in Topeka, KS. In fact, there is no street at all named Hillsdale in Topeka, KS. But there is such a place in Shawnee, KS, just outside Kansas City. My guess is that in the backyard one would find chickens. Google sure seems to think your wrong: https://maps.google.com/maps?client=ubuntu&channel=cs&q=1164+SW+Hillsdale+St+Topeka,+KS+66604%3F&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x87bf0282a350ae01:0x247d5324ead23e3c,1164+SW+Hillsdale+St,+Topeka,+KS+66604&gl=us&ei=L19nUa2TOenuyQGv2oDYDg&ved=0CDMQ8gEwAAGoogle is fucking with me! I clearly saw Swanee and then asked for directions to Topeka KS of which the results were ~60 miles. Top box was only Topeka, KS, with the generated box below it beling the Swanee, KS complete address. I wasn't trying to spread fud here. At any rate, it's only 4 blocks west of SW Gage Blvd. |

@Herodes
Your post is probably directly toward the OP and not mine, but after reading it I see that my brainfart would need a little tweaking to be viable, yet doable, for I somehow excluded the regulations, especially here in the US, into the equation.
Using the US as an example, what is the cheapest entry amount, in terms of dollars, are we talking here? Is there a min/max dollar amount traded before such regulations are required, or if even $1 is traded, regulations are in effect?

I just want my money back. I don't care about the police report. As long as I get my money back, he can call himself anything he wants and file whatever report he wants or not.
Asking for the police report number that he claimed to have filed is a hedge of sorts for those of us which have funds residing at InstaWallet. A lot could happen within the next 90 days, hence wanting to get in front of this fiasco as quickly as possible in case the worse comes to fruition. By them ignoring such a simple request, it sheds a dim light on their overall operations. There's more at stake here than just those who've had funds at InstaWallet. Even as we speak, he's still breaking up the larger wallets into 1,000 BTC wallets. I guess that's why he doesn't have time to address any issues posed--securing 1,000 BTC wallets comes first. I'm curious as to what the other partners think about this action. Amazingly, nary a peep from them. Later, bud. ~Bruno K~ Where's the link to this action ? Is it davout sitting in a hotel somewhere stashing coins here and there ? Have the BlockChain URLs in a sec for you, bud. |

Guess with the more visibility of Bitcoin the more it will get attacked. The more visibility of Bitcoin, the more the chance that entities will claim an attack and that they've filed a vapor police report. I'm beginning to believe that the only reason they return here to berate us is to give them something to do while packing their bags prior to... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCkxso19PnU |

I personnally tested my urls on the claim form and it worked.
If you are getting a 404 error it could be that your url is made up.
All instawallet urls that have received transactions are in the database.
Boussac (Pierre) you come back after ignoring questions and the first thing you say to a guy who has lost a shedload if coins is that maybe his URL is made up. Way to go mate. Good job. I am not ignoring questions steelboy I am ignoring people who threaten or insult me here or via PM (they are going on my ignore list). There were three millions wallets created on instawallet.org: how could I possibly answer to everyone ? The reason we set up an online claim process is precisely because we cannot deal with each and every user by email, post or PM. Had I started using other means than an online form, I would have been swamped. I will nonetheless make sure their claims are processed fairly if they come up with a valid url. Thank you Boussac. Wait, what! Whatta I miss? I had my pants down below my knees and thought I was first in line. What's your queue number? I'll assume it was good, otherwise you wouldn't have thanked him. (please take no offense, brickhouse464) |

I, for one, have not sent you any PMs, and hopefully haven't insulted you when I kindly suggested wanting to suck the dicks of you and your partners--it was meant as a complement. I was the first to start pressing for the police report number of which others have kindly followed suit requesting same. Is it quite possible that everybody who has requested it is on your ignore list, for I see that you've failed, once again, to give it after claiming you filed such a report? Surely, you didn't lie, for you've proven that you're a trustworthy chap. Since I'm probably on your ignore list, thus you won't read this, I will resort to a threat: Provide the police report number or I will dox you and all your partners, along with your families, probably on a self-hosted site oppose to here on this forum. Full disclosure: I am not making a physical threat of any kind. Now, about that police report. |

Let's think outside the box for a sec, with the profit aspect in mind.
What if there were a standardized trading platform that all the exchanges use, with each exchange, wherever located, limited to a maximum of 1,000 users (actual number would need to be explored).
They all operate independently, but are linked for the sole purpose of getting a weighted average. It's that dollar amount generated from said average that'll be used as the official exchange rate, no longer relying upon one entity controlling 80% of all trades, coupled with going down due to being the victum of their own success.
Anybody will be able to run an exchange as long as they pay a prevailing fee for the privilege and provide their actual vitals to TBF.
Since this would be a weighted average, each exchange, no matter how big or how small, would have their rate weighted accordingly.
A person can own more than one exchange, provided they're on completely different servers and paid the fees to operate their subsequent exchanges.
They have to had run such an exchange successfully for one year before they are allowed to purchase a license to operate a second exchange. After two years, they can apply for two more, thus growing exponentially.
Since Mt Gox has been so kind in showing us how not to run an exchange, we'll allow them to start with two such entities, whereupon next year they can apply for four more, then eight, etc. (I even let the math work better in their favor: 2-4-8 oppose to 2-2-4, as in 1-1-2-4-8 for all others, thus showing that I don't have a MAJOR red-ass toward Mt Gox)
Mark K. can easily partner with some other person to finance another exchange in their name, as long as there is full disclosure.
All owners will be required to have a business license and incorporated accordingly in their respected countries.
Although I stated 1,000 users max, the number should be such that an owner can earn a respectable income from their exchange, but not too high, for remember, they will be in position to run another exchange in the coming year(s), coupled with financing partners to operate other exchanges early on. In a sense, they'll be able to game the system, but with controls in place, so to speak.
The above was just off the top of my head from the side not damaged from the rod, thus probably needs revised, but surely a beauty can be seen in such an endeavor.

New Instawallet Notice: Instawallet is closed
Visit your wallet's URL to file a claim.
Submit your claim now: claims will be processed in the order they were received. Multiple claims for a same wallet will require more time to process.
The claim process started April 11, 2013 at 10PM CEST. I visited a few of my Instawallet URLs, but there was still a 404 error? IDK. EDIT: Now, when I visit the main Instawallet site, it's an infinite load loop?  Same here, 404 error on all 5 of my wallet addresses. You guys are so lucky! I don't even get a 404 error, just the endless fruit-loop (actually stops at the static page, but that wouldn't have worked as humor). |

I just checked all three of my IW URLs, and each showing O BTC residing in wallets of which addresses weren't supplied. Upon refreshing one of the pages, I'm once again greeted with the static home page, indicative of doing the same for the other two. Madness! |

The coins are moving...  They're breaking it up into 1000 BTC wallets. Somebody please explain to me why this action needs to be done. |

Boussac, i think an explanation aas to what this means should be forthcoming. You're not doing it right! Alle, alle auch sind frei!lol I need to take a leaf out of your book, it sounds like you have nearly as much to lose in this fiasco as i do but you keep smiling. I made money with btc and am still up but lost over 90% of my coins. I need to start appreciating what i still have and just hope that some will return through this. I like your attitude Phin  Thanks, bud. The attitude is genuine, but sometimes it reaches a breaking point, thus the injection of vulgar every now and then. Yet, I don't see myself turning into a violent individual, albeit sometimes espousing such, with this episode not yet being the case. I've done well with my past enterprises, and lost everything a handful of time, never blaming anybody for such loses except myself, as I smiled/laughed through it all. I put unfounded faint into InstaWallet having them hold my bitcoins until I got around to having them stored in a more secure wallet that has been duly advised from the advent of Bitcoin. Now, I'm a victim (of sorts) whose minor claim-to-fame is making sure others don't become victims to scams. Ironic, just like when a dear friend of mine that was a professor at Vanderbilt died due to taking medicine prescribed by two different doctors to battle infections stemming from her broken ankle that didn't act will with each other, while at the same time she had an exposé in the Nashville Banner warning against such practices. It'll take something a helluva lot worse to happen to have me lose faith in Bitcoin overall, albeit what's happening at Mt Gox with Mark on the TBF board approaches such concerns. |
