What about coins deposited AFTER the hack? Any chance I might get them back?

Thank you for making a thread like this!  I'm in a tight situation because of this and would like to see how this situation evolves.

Well, email sent.. we'll see what's up now.  This really sucks as I've deposited 15 btc after the hack occured.

I have plenty of ID's but no paper bills
7  Other / Beginners & Help / Proof of address on: August 30, 2013, 06:23:34 AM
I've been having an extremely difficult time registering at most of bitcoin exchangers because almost all of them require "Proof of address".  I don't understand why they would need paper bill statements as a way to prove your address.  I have my address written on my ID.  Why isn't that good enough?  I've had my paper bills cancelled about a year and a half ago and everything I have is online.  I've been declined everytime I tried to use those.  I've had one of them ask me to take an online bank statement to my bank and get it stamped but I'm on an extended vacation.  Another exchanger deleted my account because they're convinced I'm a hacker trying to sign up with someone else's ID from another country!!  <-- retards that I will never do business with.  Anybody else have problems with this?

Ok, Olaf has taken care of my problem as well.  I hope other people won't have this problem and once enough support staff are hired problems such as these will be forgotten.  It's good to know that even with that Coinbase still looks after its customers!
9  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has anyone else tried Coinbase lately? on: August 29, 2013, 08:54:56 AM
And another transaction went through!! Same conditions and same amount!! Horrible algorithms Coinbase!
10  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has anyone else tried Coinbase lately? on: August 29, 2013, 08:06:03 AM
I have no ideea what I do to be high risk... maybe it's the way I click!
11  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has anyone else tried Coinbase lately? on: August 29, 2013, 07:54:52 AM
And more fun! Another order cancelled! Smiley

Unfortunately, we have decided to cancel this order because it appears to be high risk. We do not send out any bitcoins on high risk transactions, and your bank account will not be charged.
12  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has anyone else tried Coinbase lately? on: August 29, 2013, 07:34:16 AM
Again, apologies for the trouble with this!
Olaf, I understand you're not personally at fault for this, but Coinbase's policy is really hard on new customers from this point of view.  I don't know if the algorithms used by the automated process are a very good way to handle this, seeing as so many people have this problem.  I think there should be at least one human person making the decision.  As of this moment I'm still waiting for a reply in my email....  

Also in the meantime, could you please propose a change to the wording in the email Coinbase sends to people who receive this email, specifically "You may have more luck trying again in a few weeks. Best of luck and thank you for trying Coinbase."  because it feels like a slap in the face when you read it (in that specific moment), and I'm not sure that's the message Coinbase is trying to send.

Paypal is evil!  I accidently clicked on Add funds in my account and they said my account is limited and have to upload ID and proof of address.  I have to be careful what I click while in my account from now on!  Know knows what will be next?  Force to call their hot-line?  Show up at their office and have a nice chat (interrogation) as to why I have an account with them and if I intend on moving millions of dollars overseas?  Provide them with my fingerprints and DNA?  Implant a chip in my body that has a capsule of cyanide and can be remotely triggered to leak/explode in case I start a suspicious transaction?
14  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has anyone else tried Coinbase lately? on: August 28, 2013, 08:23:04 AM
Exactly what happend to me.  Another transaction I made in exactly the same conditions went through right before.
15  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Hashrate Difficulty Climbing on: August 28, 2013, 08:06:14 AM
Difficulty can't (shouldn't,... probably will) perpetually go up 30%+ every time.  I still believe in my heart that people will eventually realize that their investments will never pay off that way.  Maybe that belief will remain in the depths of my heart and greed will corrupt people's minds and they will buy more mining hardware regardless of -100% investment returns Cheesy

It's a lot of fun when the price rises and in the exact second you're supposed to receive the bitcoins your transaction gets cancelled.  It's just like going back on your deal.  If I make a deal with someone, for example I promise to give them some cake next friday and take some money in return.  I take the money, and when friday rolls around I give him back his money because I think he's a high risk customer, although the price of cake has risen in the meantime.  The guy I made my deal with has a house full of guests that will not get cake that day.  I also offer a help-line for him to call but there's no one to answer until some unspecified time in the future.

If Coinbase were honest, they wouldn't cancel transactions in the last moment and refund the money.  The last ebayer that did this because I order from him from a "high-risk" country got a NEGATIVE feedback from me.  If a transaction is high-risk DON'T ACCEPT IT TO BEGIN WITH!  That would at least be honest!
18  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Where to invest? on: August 28, 2013, 07:25:29 AM
I would invest in anything non-ponzi (unless at the beginning) and nothing (just keep bitcoins).  Also not to forget to invest in yourself (schooling, etc).  Unfortunately you have to go high-risk, high-reward until you have a decent amount of money to just keep revenue at a certain level, but reduce risk.  If you want to invest in a business you can't until you have a lot of upfront money, so you should invest in other businesses that you think will succeed until you can earn the capital required to start your own.
19  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: will the bitcoin reach $1000 one day...? on: August 28, 2013, 07:07:03 AM
Bitcoin will certainly reach more than $1000!!  It's built on the correct principles!  It will be fun to see the world's 'plantation dollars' as they are called become more and more worthless.  Although as an economist I can tell you that I've been scared ever since I learned about bitcoin.  It's not possible for it to be stopped anymore as the ideea already exists and it works.  Even if bitcoin were to be destroyed (by governments, wars, etc), the ideea still exists and can't be stopped.  The problem is with economic laws, specifically the 80-20 law.  What happens when someone amasses a great amount of wealth?  Usually people go and steal it, but what if you couldn't steal it?  All these things will just make it rise in value and those who hold more of it become even wealthier.  Not that the same isn't happening right now, but if someone's holding $10 million and the government prints a couple of $billion more, those $10million theoretically have just lost a portion of their value.  No one can create more bitcoins than are programmed... So what do we do when the majority of bitcoins will be in the hands of a wealthy few?  Will we start using other forms of crypto-currency?  Go back to paper?  Gold?  Will we as a species give up the concept of money altogether after another series of horrible wars.  The future is ahead of us, and anything could happen.  We should be prepared for anything, good or bad!

New around here myself! But 13?!  I only have 2 :p... But when I stop to think about it, they're not a bad investment.. or experiment.. we'll see in a few years if they make their $ back.  In the end it's a way of getting bitcoins without having to make an exchange, although much slower.
