My frog legs and eyes of newt are clearly showing upward price movement over the next month. The dark ravens on the fence post this morning may be a counter-indicator, but I think it's safe to say the three-cloud-pattern which obscured the moon six nights ago protects against this type of reversal.

Time to go to the basement and consult with my monkey and his ouija board.  Smiley

todays GDP with its past revisions were appallingly bad.  it's amazing our gov't and banking institutions get away with these manipulations.

neither of the QE's worked for the real economy except to line the pockets of the financial elite via bailouts who widened their wealth disparity from the common American by a significant amount. 

when will it end?

Dude, there's a LOT of room at the bottom... as long as the change is gradual, you'd be shocked at what the people will be willing to put up with, and for how long.

I know what testaferro is... what I don't know is what kind of proof you have... how about you offer that instead?

Again with the proof ... if you understand testaferro, ownership by proxy, nominee directors and shareholders you know these things are structured in a way to obscure real ownership.

Of course there is no hard proof!! Let's put it this way: It is my opinion that Paxum is owned by Mallick. I don't know who bitcoinxpress is or what his agenda is, but what the connections are all there. There is overwhelming evidence all over the internet pointing to what my conclusion came to be. It is QUITE different to say "I had a dream that AurumXchange rape goats".

Is there HARD PROOF that Iraq was invaded on "weapons of mass destruction" lie in order to secure oil? NO, but if you doubt it at this point, you are just plain fool.

OK, giving you the benefit of the doubt, here's where you're wrong. You are making an assertion and requiring me to prove the negative... and proving a negative being impossible, you claim victory because I cannot dis-prove your assertion.

The way the adult brain works, on the other hand, is that if you make a claim (Chris Mallick is behind Paxum... Iraq has WMD... there is a god... the moon landings were a hoax), the onus is then on you to submit proof that will support that assertion. Get it now?

You cannot disprove that I'm your father... or your gay lover... or that you are trying to generate fear and confusion for your own interests. But you don't need to disprove that until such time as I can offer proof that those things are so.

Now, either you're 13 and never came across the concept of onus of proof, or you do have an agenda and are pushing it in a pretty underhanded way. In either case, you really have no place in a serious forum about a serious issue.
1704  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: TradeHill - We now support deposits and withdrawals of funds via Paxum. on: July 29, 2011, 04:39:41 PM
What I found amazing and refreshing in this thread is the open, honest and approachable conduct by the Paxum reps.

Dwollla was never this approachable and with the recent chargebacks they are ALOT less approachable however it seems that some people in this thread still treat dwolla, even after the fact, with much more respect and courtesy than the Paxum reps.

I would suggest to Paxum to open a new thread dedicated to their company and bitcoin related questions/issues.

hear hear... let this thread sink into the darkness (though I suspect there will be at least two people here trying to bring it back to life from time to time)

Yup, that explains it, because at 0.05% your interest payment structure was never going to fly.

The owner of Paxum is Octav Moise, you can look it up if you'd like to. Chris Mallick has absolutely nothing to do with Paxum.
Wasn't Octav Moise the guy behind the 'Vimax' (penis enlargement patch) affiliate program that littered the Internet with web pages using the words "Vimax" and "scam" prominently so that people searching for "is vimax a scam" would find hundreds of pages that said it wasn't?

Joel,

You are correct about Octav. Furthermore, Octav is the testaferro (http://www.spanishdict.com/translate/testaferro) of Chris.

Just requested one... Haven't read much about flexcoin yet but what ensures it's security over any other escrow service?

Everything is encrypted with high grade encryption, salted.. etc etc..  Comodo "green bar" SSL, firewalled...  We had it audited by a bank auditing company.  It exceeds banking compliance standards. The main site is just a standard http .. the banking area (on a differing server cluster) goes to the secure system.

Is it foolproof?  No.

Many of you guys know the only "100% secure  system" is one that is physically unplugged and turned off...   and like any website on earth it can be brought down by DDOS attack....   but it does exceed what many would consider "normal security" or even "high grade security".  



And how do you guys make your money? I read the FAQ, but haven't found anything about fees yet.
1708  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: TradeHill - We now support deposits and withdrawals of funds via Paxum. on: July 29, 2011, 04:05:20 PM
I'm postIng this from my Phone so please excuse any typos.

I see your game and I won't play it.
 You are flat out wrong. Michael Olsen an epass
Mastermind? Just shows how clue less you are.

Yes I'm saying paxum has no connection
Employee partner board member wise. The only
Person to ever have s connection was Michael for two weeks.

Paxum is set up in Belize. How is that a connection to
Epass?


To the community : I do not look at this guy
As a reflection of the community as a whole.
People should be on their guard when it comes to
Money but for someone just to repeat lies
And never accept the answer given is just absurd.

My final words to him unless he has a valid question
Is that paxum is not epass and we have no epass employees
Or board members or whatever name you want
To give them. The only true thing posted was
Michael was employed for two weeks. Half of he was sick and
Could not work. He was a support person on
Messages boards. Same job he had with epass.


Regards
Chris

And they reply in iambic pentameter... now that's class!!!  Cheesy
1709  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crazy Land Rush on: July 29, 2011, 04:00:13 PM


I strongly urge you guys to get an invite now for flexcoin because when the invite system is off we're going to stop accepting new registrations for roughly a day.   So the only way to get in is via invite and we're sending out all the invites in a few hours..

Meaning that you can get a generic flexcoin id "coffeeshop", "money" , "webhosting" or whatever now but in 24 hours most likely you won't be able to.

This reminds me of a 1990's domain name rush...   that ID is staying with people for life.. so people are looking for generic ones like mad.  


Could you give us as much info as possible on all your security measures? I suspect I won't be the only one asking this (and I know I am not the most qualified to).

Thanks,

@PaxumChris

You are playing word games again and are get to get hung.

Let me ask it this way as these people can be classified as Board Members, Contractors, Advisors, etc... and not employees.

Are you saying that Michael Olsen (one of the epassporte masterminds) was the only person involved with Paxum that was associated Chris Mallick in anyway shape or form?

Before you answer that you need to decide how you will handle the fact that OxyMoronEnt (owned by Chris Mallick) is a financial stake holder and business partner with Paxum. Explain the registry firms in Belize and Antilles utilizing the exact same process agents. Deny Shaliza Somani's aka MiddleMen Productions (50% owned by Chris Mallick).....




@JohnSmiith
I didn't copy your avatar, This is a highly published pic and I have been using it for a year with this name internet wide. It was a coincidnce.

We could go back and forth all day long like this, but the fact of the matter is that you are wrong, plain and simple.  This is ALSO why you have NOT been able to provide any proof/evidence of your erroneous accusations.

Paxum is in NO WAY related to Epassporte. Our thousands of customers are more than happy with our service, we are the dominant alternative payment method for the adult industry, which is an industry that was SERIOUSLY AFFECTED by the downfall of Epassporte.

Common sense will hopefully prevail among prospective clients of Paxum, particularly in light of our continued growth and success. We are Canadian incorporated, registered as a money services business, and customer feedback illustrates we are providing a great service.

If anyone has any questions that are DIFFERENT from those above, and have relevance, then please feel free to post them. Smiley



Hi Ruth and Chris:

Please pay no attention to the troll... he has his own agenda, and you have been nothing but gracious and patient with your explanations. I considered Paxum as a method for funding my exchange accounts, but decided to get my BTC elsewhere instead. However, if I were in the States or Europe right now, I would probably switch to Paxum right away.

I for one am very happy you guys are on board, and as long as you stick to the statements you've made to us regarding chargebacks, it should be a very good match with you and Tradehill.

Cheers,
1711  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: An open letter to the US government, the Federal Reserve and Schumer on: July 29, 2011, 03:15:40 PM
Actually, the more I think about it, the more sense it makes for some other government, notably the Chinese, to try this... Just imagine if they, not the US, were able to control the crypto-currency market!

The Chinese currently have a tool which gives them a means to control Bitcoin that the US and Western countries currently lack.  Namely, a revolver round applied to the back of the head.

I suspect that the Chinese government will not take to your idea, not because it is not a good one, but rather because it is simply the antithesis of orthodoxy to an authoritarian regime.

Don't get me wrong...I am not anti-Chinese or even anti-Chinese government in a 100% way.  I suspect that the current government since Xiaoping has in fact done about as well for their people as is possible.  But I do hope that the people attain the freedom they deserve when the time is right.

The Chinese government does seem both far sighted and astute.  I still expect that we'll see Chinese anti-bitcoin methods employed in the West before you idea is adopted by China however.


It really does depend whether the Chinese have their own equivalent of Bobbi... I agree with you that bitcoin is the antithesis of orthodoxy. But seen in the right light, it also happens to be the antithesis of corporate-driven capitalism.

I, for one, am very curious as to what tack they will take. The fact that they've been conspicuously silent so far is somewhat telling, in view of the fact that articles on Bitcoin have even been published in popular Chinese newspapers. Let's hope their far sightedness and astuteness wins over any potential knee-jerk reactions.

I recently heard someone say, in reply to the question: Does the 21st century belong to China? "Of course it does, pretty much like every other century before it except for the 19th and the 20th". There's something to that, isn't there?
1712  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: TradeHill - We now support deposits and withdrawals of funds via Paxum. on: July 29, 2011, 03:09:47 PM
Adult industry, after been screwed by epassporte (chris mallick), would not go with paxum if there would be even slightest connection between the two.


Wrong, it's all about the money and if more money can be brought in than lost it's all good.

@PaxumChris

I have access to financial records and research tools that would totally frighten most people.

Do you really want to go there?



Hey Chris:

Better to ignore the trolls. Unfortunately, you just walked into these forums without prior knowledge. Pay no attention to morons like BitcoinEXpress, who may be trying to push their own agenda or simply get a chuckle out of getting you riled up.

You explained your position as well as you could, and have made yourself available for anyone who may have questions about Paxum to reach you. For the record, I looked into Paxum, but discarded it in favour of the Canadian bitcoin exchange Virtex, which made life a lot simpler for me. But that's because I'm in Canada. If I were in the States right now, I'd probably turn to Paxum to fund my Tradehill account.

Glad to have you guys on board.



Yes - if you have proof that paxum is the same company as epassporte please post it. I've worked for the owners of paxum in our other biz for 9 years. I would think I know who they are.


How do you explain all the common RELATIVES of Chris Mallick and Paxum? I noticed you didn't deny that one.




You are one confussed person it seems. I'll deny it right now.


PAXUM HAS NO EPASSPORTE EMPLOEYES WORKING FOR THE COMPANY. NO RELATIVES OF EPASSPORTE EMPLOYEES. NOTHING.

The only epassporte employee that EVER worked for paxum was Michael Olsen. He was a board support rep for epassporte. He was not even in the same country as the epassporte offices. He worked for us for two weeks. He decided to go work for a competitor of ours. That is the ONLY connection with people to epassporte.

We are both heavy in the adult industry. That is true. So are a handful of other payment providers. Are they owned by epassporte?

What other connection are you finding paxum to epassporte?





The story unravels huh Chris?

Before it was ABSOLUTELY NO CONNECTION, now it is just Michael Olsen.

Mr. Olsen was no small player and he was there a lot longer than two weeks and still is.

What about the others? Are we going to also have a sudden slip and find yet another connection to Chris Mallick and ePassporte?

I really wished my IP was visible so you could see what major financial company I am sitting inside of.

Bottom line Chris, you are outted.

Do you deny the other mentioned people are nvolved with Paxum, past or present?

What in the world are you talking about? I've never denied that? If you look before you post im pretty sure i posted that he worked for us. He was a rep at that company and it was natural for us to hire an employee that had a ton of knowledge.  We publicly hired Michael Olsen. A person who had no day-to-day dealings with the innner workings of epassporte. He was a person who monitored adult messages boards and helped people with questions. He was out of a job - we hired him. That simple. Use your detective work. Find the competitor he works for now - and ask him your self. Or go to gfy.com and do more research and you will see we have no connection at all.

You are way off base and have no clue what you are talking about. You have yet to post anything.

I will be afk for about an hour - please find all your proof and post it.


PAXUM DOES NOT EMPLOYEE ANY EPASSPORTE RELATIVES OR PAST EMPLOYEE'S

1716  Economy / Speculation / Re: The Golden Retracement on: July 29, 2011, 10:35:56 AM
It probably doesnt have anything to do with a "Fibonacci retracement" or something like that.

The price is affected by the fact that Dwolla is gone as a payment method, and how much is written about bitcoin in the media.

Its probably going to fall for a little while before recovering.



Plus, it's the end of the month and people need to pay rent :-)

It's a nice video. Congratulations Smiley

There's one thing I never understood about these stores; when you pay for bitcoins do you have to wait until the transaction is confirmed or can you take your food and go while it is unconfirmed?


If you have some BTC in mybitcoin or instawallet, the transfer to another mybitcoin or instawallet user is instantaneous.
1719  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How I would destroy bitcoin if I was a goverment on: July 29, 2011, 02:17:33 AM
One possibility would be for the powers that be to adopt Bitcoin as legitimate.

Those who have a lionshare of the wealth now could transfer to having a lionshare of Bitcoin.  Bitcoin, like gold, is probably a better tool so subjugate the plebs with than is fiat currency.  Can be hoarded more effectively and it's release can have a bigger impact.

Then the question becomes, what are the plebs to do?

My suggestion would be at that point to vote to switch en-mass to abandon BTC and switch to BTC-II or whatever.  In that way, I consider BTC to be preferable to gold.

(Actually I've got a different idea which I am working on, but it's not mature yet.)

Yup, I wrote something to that effect here: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=14163.msg192458#msg192458
1720  Economy / Economics / Re: Buying coins over market price on MtGox on: July 29, 2011, 02:09:10 AM
I just started a buy order for 3 BTC at $16.something each so that I could fill all the $50 in my account. I was hoping that I could get exactly 3 BTC (minus fees) and raise the highest buy price to $16. I was hoping to get things going again, and that other people would see the high order and follow suit and maybe we could have another rally.

Anyways...I ended up getting 2.99 BTC as expected but I have $10 left. I later found that I bought all these coins at $13.4, which is completely not what I intended for.

I'm going to add another $450 to my account and start buying up some more coins...and hopefully get a rally started.

Boggles the mind, doesn't it?
