Sure Pirateat40 case is relevant.  It takes away the "it's just a game, nothing of value is being traded" rationalization that Burnside tried using on his gameserver.  How old are you, bro?

It's relevant as to what? He ran a Ponzi scheme and de-frauded investors of 150k BTC. That is why he's in trouble and every Ponzi scheme operator is a serous criminal. Are you saying that's news bro? It's not bro. OK bro? See ya crumbs.

Pirateat40 claimed that nothing of value changed hands, so the laws which applied to money did not apply​ to him.  This was a hackneyed, popular claim at one point in time.​  Burnside used it in his TOS.  Ken, not being as smart, creative or eloquent as Burnside, chose to call Active Mining of Belize a "Virtual Identity."  That one just grated on the ears, but heck - Ken's Ken, gotta make allowances.  If Pirateat40 is convicted, that line won't need to be revisited when Ken & Co get their day in court.

fuck this.

woulda been better off sinking all my money into KnC miners and doing it myself.

WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MINING WEEKS AGO TO HAVE MADE THIS PROJECT WORTH WHILE.

% network share is the same BTC ROI regardless - and with BTC price increases we've got just as good a chance as before regardless of difficulty.

I think you, and others, need to grow a pair.

The only problem being this:  To secure the same percentage of the total hashrate, you now need many more chips, many more cases, many more power supplies.
Grow a brain.


Isn't it lucky the price of BTC has gone up so substantially since the first estimates were made.

bye troll

Vinny, please remember that you have invested BTC, not dollars.  This has been discussed to death.
If you invest 1BTC to get .1BTC back, you're being a fool, regardless of the exchange rate.

... You tell me what has changed between November and January and I'll let you slide on this very unintelligent comment of yours...

Ken has built a large production plant, with 3 (three) Harbor Freight workbenches.  This development was documented and announced last Wednesday:



I'm afraid Vinny gets to slide.

Forgive my opion if it hurts ActM diehards but CT exchange would be a mistake imo.  Decent solution is decentralised exchange and I think Mr Slaughter holds back answer for this reason. Minerpart has right feelings imo.  Goodluck.

I agree. I have previously said that personally I would rather wait until 'colored coins' releases a working beta client.

I'd rather keep the shares off the market forever.  I'm not planning on selling anyway, i'm in it for the dividends.

Another crumbs account?

Possibly.  Only a troll or an idiot would want to hold this bag of dicks Smiley

Are you using TOR or a VPN to access the forums with that account?

Repeated attempts to rerout proved unsuccessful.  This ban has nothing to do with Bitcointalk's ridiculous practice of blacklisting TOR exit nodes.

@tysat:  Please move the VMC/Active Mining thread from the Hardware section.  Neither one of these storefronts has any hardware to offer, making the thread a far better fit in Off-Topic or Scam Accusations sections.

This is a warning to all the innocents who still believe the mods are here to help.
NickDanger, a virtual identity which I chose for you as my manifestation on this forum, was banned without a warning.
This savage travesty of justice was the result of a plea - petitioning the mods to do their job.
Here is the shocking proof:
