I contacted hotdealdave on this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5214747.0
And proceeded to speak with him on Skype. I offered to buy a Stripe account from him and paid him the btc and right after he went AWOL and does not answer my Skype messages. Till he got the Btc he was very active answering all questions.

Then I posted on his thread saying I will give him the benefit of the doubt and that thread ended up being deleted by him since it was self moderation.

Now obviously he hasn’t contacted and leads me to believe he is a Scammer. So buyer beware of this guy!!

Are these with Impressions?

So you are happy to bump your post but not answer the question?

But your site doesnt work. The easyupgrade one.

Is Stripe USA account?

Also can I use a bank with a different name like a Transferwise account to get the funds?

This is a scary bit:  The credit code must be redeemed as soon as possible.

Why is this? So its not like other coupons that actually have an expiry date?

Still selling these?

Sold

Can anyone show me a entity that has paid out more than 1 percent interest in the past 20 years for longer than a 3 year period? This excludes equity.

Very interesting.


Sounds like you've made similar progress to what we have with dealing with institutional investors, same issues/concerns with doing ICOs and keeping virtual shares (Although we've gone a slightly different path).

Which courts will enforce these bonds?

I spent $15k out of pocket on legal fees & lawyers to get somewhat comfortable with the legal framework.

I'm absurdly thankful for how its all panned out for me and our company, but I challenge everyone to go back, look at all the companies that were on bitfunder/btctc/ltcglobal/havelock and see how many are still around and making money every day.

What country or municipality sees 'smart contracts' or coins as enforceable in court?

What municipalities will seize assets of a individual/entity based on non-performance or outright fraud from a 'smart contract'.

Out of these areas/countries/municipalities, what ones have profitable real estate investments, and established investors that you can trust?

I enjoyed the early period immensely.


However after seeing what happened to my brother, him giving up what was a solid career for Bitcoin, then having people spend substantial money/time to destroy his life, it made me want to get as far away as possible from the world of bitcoin.

It's one thing to keep track with forum posts online and websites about people doing crappy things to eachother, it's something else to see someone's livelyhood completely dismantled because some faceless individual online decided to do it.

In my case, my business goes way beyond just me and my family, but the 50+ families our company now provides housing for. All real people, names, faces, jobs, lives of their own, and from my perspective being associated closely with bitcoin isn't an asset, it's a liability.

If we see good community here, this one will be good coin. I love here low supply.

We need pool here!

Time for stake more TEK

Going to mine some ALEX

Food for thought.

The best hedge funds in the world have averaged about 15% a year.

In the United States, like many other countries, it is easy to file with the regulatory commission (sec) to build investment syndication. One I looked at quite recently acquired around 5 million dollars in first round funding after promising a clear path to 16% yields through secured debt purchases.

Every post I've read says usees expect a 3% to 10% MONTHLY return. This exceeds the returns from the best investors in the world by 3 to 10 times.

So, my question to you all is why the heck would anyone consider asking for money on a Web forum when there are billions of dollars in VC funding available for clear ppans? Why would someone with the ability to generate such massive revenues be asking for money in this way?

As of 10/24/2016 I have not received any invoice request from Havelock to make payment or request. My only notification from them that there was a problem was the day they terminated the listing on their website, sent to my personal shareholder account notifying that the asset was frozen on the exchange for non-payment. I have not had contact with them for more than a year (Skype doesn't even show an archived record of the last conversation with them).

The cost associated with doing business on Havelock is comparable to OTCQB, and significantly more than other methods, so I don't see the purpose of continuing a listing there.
