On condition that a more than a 10% haircut is considered a default, regardless of creditor acquiesence.

Agreed.

Out of curiosity, is your deposit particularly large? I seem to remember it was 3-figures, which should be insignificant enough that he can at least meet an agreed payment schedule...

Looks like pirate has enough time to read btcst chat and kick me for expressing my views (some trolling i admit) but yet he doesn't have enough time to return all the bitcoins.

And here I thought bitcoin was an instant transfer lol Cheesy

Looks like someone named bitlane was also just booted from #BTCST

This gets better by the day.

What for?
I would imagine he asked where his money is  Wink

2) Get off your lazy ass and calculate it yourself.

You've been very quiet on your 10K bet thread - not going to post another update so you can tell everyone how much interest you've made?  Wink

The exchange PR insulting potential investors and site operator using "LOL" and similar insults greatly discredit this.

Can you please provide links?

They handily dropped by, no need  Wink

Frankly, meh, if anyone wants to buy into SD at a >$3 million valuation on an exchange that shares its domain name with a porn/gore site, let them.

I wish them the best of luck finding buyers at that rate. I just don't think it's terribly likely that this IPO will be successful  Wink

Welp, the stats are back, and I'm now paid up to the 15th at least, so I'm giving the benefit of the doubt for now and pointing 50% of my cumulative hashrate in bithopper this way - I've been struggling with my own hopping proxy to get returns better than these, and ProjectX is good for variance  Wink Should average out at about 2Gh/s - I can increase that pretty quickly if I get paid  Cheesy

Matthew: Did you invest with Pirate?

No, I would never invest in Pirate. I find it highly risky and completely lacking in any transparency whatsoever. I would warn others to not put any money into non-transparent, unresearched endeavors like Pirate as well unless they have money to lose.
In that case, why are you exposing yourself to all that risk at this late stage?  Huh
772  Economy / Long-term offers / Re: Bitcoin Savings & Trust - Money Returned List (none reported). on: August 20, 2012, 10:31:11 PM

Uhm where isn't it enough to retire? I will retire when I have amassed far less.

5mil is the bare minimum to retire on in the US after inflation considered. You can expect safe income of about 100k a year. That's not really a lot when you think about it. Unless you live in some awful town.
It's a lot more than the majority have at retirement  Wink

Someone please decode for those of us (me) who are too lazy to do it.

EDIT:  that would be awesome for someone to send a message that says "MIND YOUR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS"
Just did for the most recent one  Wink

Still an unsurprising lack of bets from the big mouth crowd.    Well, at least we know they're just kids with no backbone for when they start up their next vigilante campaign.  Bunch of cowards Smiley
I've placed a bet, Micon's placed a bet, Maged has placed a bet.
Really you just mean Vladimir, since I can't see anyone else who's been notably vocal over the BS&T matter who hasn't placed a bet.

Oh by the way, how are those repayments going?  Wink

So basically you're saying that you're not going to get anything back, but you're willing to sell that nothing for 285btc?  You'd be better off auctioning your loss.

I'll start, 2btc!

And once again, MPEX PR put people off taking them seriously as an alternative to GLBSE. I was actually interested in the idea of owning shares in SD, but the price is way off.

I'm not a tech, but I would guess the same thing is stopping someone today that stopped someone up until today. And also the same thing that stopped all the groupon clones from becoming groupon and all the facebook/twitter clones from becoming facebook/twitter. In the words of the once-famous Jerry Seinfeld,

1-I know right, just like that blatant myspace clone facebook went nowhere... and that photobucket ripoff instagram... (In businesses like these, new sites are a serious business risk. Deal with it.)
2-When you're selling a stock based on a perceived similarity to Facebook/Groupon... Well... Let's just say I have absolute faith that this asset will perform just as well as those two have  Cheesy

AAPL pays ~2.5 dollars a year in dividends. The share trades for ~650 dollars. You may think the reason you don't own AAPL is because "they're insane". The truth however is that you don't own AAPL because you don't have money.
No, actually I don't own any AAPL because I don't think a company that makes trendy phones and computers is worth more than the entire US retail sector. $620,000,000,000 is just too much for that business.
I actually made a pretty tidy amount shorting Apple stock earlier this year, and I'll probably be going that way again pretty soon.

did i read the fine print right, 100,000,000 shares at .0032 or 3,200,00 btc or more than 30 million usd?

that is insane...

Math fail. It's 320,000 btc, or about 3.2m USD. This puts it at 10x p/e based on current earnings and assuming zero growth.  
Which is seriously expensive for a business that relies entirely on a fairly unstable online currency that may well not exist or be heavily used in 10 years...
Like it or not, this is a far riskier asset than proper companies on proper exchanges...
779  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [Project X] PPS Mining Club: High Mining Rewards *REGISTRATION OPEN - 1 Left* on: August 20, 2012, 10:43:38 AM
I am wondering what is going here at project x.  I have not been paid in 6 days.  The hashrate of this project continue to drop and no response back from OP.  Stats not updating and no pay have me worrying.
Yup, six days is a bit too much for me, I'm hopping over to mtred until this clears up  Cheesy

You must have missed my post today: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63880.1060 Wink

Good calls waveaddict. Will be very interesting to see what happens from here.

My prediction is we see a dip to $4-$7 with a rebound to $9, back to $7.50, then $10......or all hell breaks loose and pirate crashes the price to $0.01  Cheesy

This was the pirate crash. It really doesnt matter now whether pirate depositors get their money back on monday or friday or never. At least that episode is over..
It's only just beginning...
