I ordered from them, and it arrived at the customs. I will report after I finish with the customs and light one

I too have ordered a card from mateo and everything was fine. Received the card in about 2 weeks. Very satisfied

My Bitstamp trader is working just fine, why?

Well I guess this is the end of this adventure

Well, the money flow is well documented in the bitcoin chain. A wiki-like collaborative platform is needed to collectively build a nice case against him.

I am too willing to pay the fee to the group buy organizers, since it's a reasonable amount for the trouble they went through for us. That's the fair entropy of busieness.

Congratulations on both successful batch orders!

Well to update to just another forum platform seems quite pointless, since this one serves the purpose of exchanging messages just fine. If something needs to be done it has to be a more radical change. But the problem is in which direction.
Crowdsourcing ideas seems like a modern way of evolution, so an idea and work rewarding modular platform is probably a good candidate. Users could post their own ideas and/or vote/give bounty to them. If the ideas can be planned into milestones, then users achieving those milestones could claim the bounty or at least a portion of it. Maybe smaller tasks that are more achievable would speed up the development of the project. But most importantly, the vox populi would steer the direction of development.

I get your point and I still hope that I didn't lose the funds. Will try to contact BitStamp and carry this conversation to PM. And I was thinking about sending them to a private wallet first, but then I 'followed' the advice to send the funds from a more verifiable account...what better than a market account eh

Tnx mate, so I investigated the transactions and this one seems to be my best bet: https://blockchain.info/sl/tx/b55755b37849c0b483fd11c14923329b25383429208e5a450b1abace67e6ab0c
But since I did not send anything apart my chips payment, I guess this address is owned by BitStamp...

So what should I do now? :/ Should I ask BitStamp for more details on the transaction?

Well I sent the BTCs from my BitStamp account, and that is the only address that I can find in my account. Do BTC markets have different sending and receiving addresses? The transaction is visible under my account, but with little details... any idea?

Pretty much this.

tnx a lot, hopefully we'll reach soon the goal

Post more details please.

As far as I know govmnt funny money still buys you to eat, while others don't.

Good info mate. But how do you know its just another EMA trader?

From my research there is no cheap and easy way of doing that anonymously. Officially I do not know where the problem is, mtgox or bitstamp transfer you the money in reasonable time.

I've been working on my own bot but still haven't got the time and money to test it practically. In simulated runs I get a nice profit, hopefully that will also be happening when I try it live

Can you post some more trading results? I guess you won't be willing to share much details about the bot itself

I do it at work, I do it at home, I even do it while I'm around.
I'm beginning to think that I'm a bitcoin junkie
