There is a bitcoin-trader unofficial discussion group, where members can openly discuss BT without running the risk of being censored, banned or attacked by admin. It can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/422205661244938/

Can someone keep updating this thread?  Some of us don't use Facebook.

Opperman was Doxxed.

Not likely. If you know the history of the Afrikaner you would understand that it takes more than a PC screen to make us shiver and hide Wink


Haha yes thats why everyone that speaks up against bitcoin trader in the group is being banned on the spot!  Roll Eyes

Bitcoin Trader is no longer processing cash outs, People who speak out about it in the group are being banned on the spot... Me being one of them, I figure I will start leaving what interesting things I have found out about their company over my time invested with them...

Hi Panther,

how can you be sure it is him - imagine if it's not him, BT disappears and all the investors run for that guy - I would not want to be him then ...  Cheesy

So seriously: How do you know the guy behind the Xing-Profile is him?

Best

I have both Thomas Opperman and Michael Brandenburg on skype personally, and have spoken to them via these accounts Smiley

The BT group on facebook as a whole is rather suspicious.. I have been a member of the group for quite some time now, and in the past few weeks the member count has practically doubled, yet it seems to be the same people participating in discussion over and over again.

Now with a group that contains 900+ members, dont you think the discussion would be a little more diverse in faces?

Upon browsing through the new member list, the majority of members added seem to be just sock puppet accounts.. one picture, one location and only seem to be interested in Bitcoin Trader.

Not to mention, I find it a little odd that the people who have given "Testimonials" on the BT website are no where to be seen in this said group...  Undecided

What is so strange about it? I am one of these fake Facebook accounts who joined that group. I just do not feel my close friends being exposed to Bitcoin world until I am 100% sure this is profitable. Also, crypto is all about privacy, I see no reason why I would destroy this entire concept by posting my BTC involvement on my social accounts.

It appears you have misread my post, I said "majority" not "all". I understand people want to maintain their privacy. I for one am also in that category, however it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out that 75% of that group is more than likely sock puppet accounts.

Actually, scratch that testimonials comment.. If you want to see something amusing, copy and paste one of the testimonials into google...  Wink

Posting this for the third time, as Thomas Opperman seems to be avoiding my question...


About this Audit, it was stated in the group it would be completed by the end of August. You also said that BT would have to set a weekday to not trade, meaning members wouldn't receive a payout... It was also said that an extra cut would be taken from our earnings to pay for this Audit.

With 8 days left of august (meaning one trading week left), I'm curious to know when BT is going to disclose which day they wont be trading, and how much this "extra cut" is going to be... and how long this extra cut is going to be taken out for... It's all being left rather last minute if you ask me...
11  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: bitcoin-trader.biz on: August 24, 2014, 03:45:41 AM
One more question for TraderThom ...

So if arbitrage trading involves keeping large sums at a number of exchanges, in order to be able to quickly capitalise on opportunities ...
Is that "our" (investors') coins on the exchanges? And therefore at risk from a number of companies "doing a mtGox"?
Do we as investors take that risk? It seems that it can't be avoided really, seeing as the whole point of us investing is so that BT have greater leverage to capitalise on arbitrage opportunities (that wouldn't be the case if our invested coins were in cold storage, obviously).

Regardless, I've invested a small sum with BT - I'm willing to take the risk. Once I've recovered it, I'll start investing more, and ride it as far as it goes!

At this point I wouldnt be surprised if BT do a Mt Gox in the coming week... With no info on this Audit, and the website going down twice in the past 2 days, Im kind of expecting the email that says "oops we got hacked, your money is gone, k cya bye"

@TraderThom, you seem to have over looked my questions...

Hi,my name is Thomas Opperman. I am the PR manager at Bitcoin Trader. My Facebook account is 100006261707339@facebook.com. I have "met" Michael Brandenburg on Skype and I am an employee of BT.


So why cant Michael Brandenburg skype with other members or do a pre recorded video for the group? You saying you "skyped" with him is like saying you met an alien at this point...



So far we are doing an audit that will be done by end of August. We have tried some of your other suggestions but got criticized that we photoshoped pictures and faked the trading results. The company has decided that the audit is sufficient proof. As for the programming and software: They used a suitable program that works for the intended purposes. What others use it for is none of our business. That's like saying law enforcement cant use guns because guns are used by criminals,so anyone who uses guns must be criminals.
We are doing all we can to prove to people that we make money in the way we say we make money,and hopefully that is enough. Thank you for the suggestions,though,I appreciate that you do not go into attack mode Wink


Like Msarro, I have kept tabs on BT like a crazy stalker, and not once have I seen any of these "photos" you speak of..

As for the Audit, the last piece of information that was released was that "john carley" was choosing an auditor.. We never found out who he actually picked.

I also want to point out that I find it awfully suspicious that you would want to keep the company conducting the audit "anonymous". Im pretty sure I read somewhere that "John Carley" has worked in finance for many years and has experience in Auditing... Who's to say he isnt conducting the audit himself and choosing what to publish?

I believe the excuse given by Thomas Opperman in the facebook group as to why the companies name couldnt be revealed was so they wouldnt get "bombarded with phone calls"... Seriously? isnt that what a receptionist is for? besides, why does BT care about the phone bill of some random accounting firm? leave that to them to deal with...



We did come back to that question on the FB page and informed about a new firm being chosen. And the firm is only staying anonymous until we post the results of the audit.That is a decision we made as management of BT. We do not have to consult the public about our decisions,do we? I understand that everyone wants to have peace of mind as soon as possible,but we made decisions about these things,not suggestions.So in short: Wait until the audit results are made public and then phone the firm to your heart's content.

Site's back up, only down for a couple of hours.
Anyone have any money on this site?
I do, I get paid as per their posted daily returns.
I roll most of it back in but I pull some out when I need it, there's never a prob getting it out.
I honestly can't say whether it's good or bad, I really don't know. But, so far, so good.
If I get hosed I'll post and let people know.
Cheers.

Site is back up, but you cant login...

I registered a few weeks ago, and paid using Bitpay.  All I got back from Bitpay was an email that linked to a receipt.  But nothing that particularly identifies that I paid.

How will you folks reconcile users and who paid?  Do we just need to provide our email address at the conference? 


We have a list of all attendees who've paid with bitcoin and will have their tickets ready at registration Smiley

Is there a reason why my inquiry was ignored?

I would like to know what the event managements stance is on being sponsored by a well known ponzi scheme?
