OK, we'll see who's right then...

inb4 you don't get $500+ for any single domain on this list.

$30 may be low but if you think you're going to get more than $500 for the best of 'em you're deluded.

It'll certainly be considered. I think it was also faster because it was higher up the BFL order list. There was a huge incentive to buy fast so that the winner got a good order number.

I get the recommended stuff, minus the flu shot because it's never stopped me getting a flu when I did get it.

Nah, ASIC corrects this issue pretty much. Botnets will be more profitable doing something else when they come along.

Terry, please implement a no-snipe rule so someone doesn't just bid at 15:59.55 or something and win a still open auction.

Say, an extension of 20 mins after the last bid?

If I win the domain, my intention is to do the following, as discussed on IRC with Someguy123:

- I will hold the domain on my registrar account, and leave the current DNS's active.
- Someguy123 will pay my USD cost for the domain + transfer to me + transfer to him, in LTC or BTC (i.e. if BTC rises in value, he will pay less BTC than I did, if BTC decreases in value, he will pay more).
- After this, I will transfer the domain to him.

Ergo, my intention is to change nothing re: the function of liteco.in. I intend merely to hold it in trust for the person who is currently operating it effectively, but cannot afford to bid on it at the moment.

Still selling... not fast though.

Looking forward to seeing some results with a C-based miner.

As I said on IRC, I'd be willing to test this on Blackberry 10 Alpha / Blackberry Playbook OS for you.

Just want to say I'm glad MtGox has filed a police report. Cretins like this thief need to be caught.

Sign me up.

He sent me another code for $10.

Applied and works fine.

1 BTC sent, tx ID: 9135c12162f7887e11ce2bd25251153dabedec90a4cc164bf5ab0c1e7d659224.

You sent me a used code...

Do you have a credit card?

I'll give you 1 BTC for a $10 Amazon.com gift voucher code: Buy here.

PM a code to me with your Bitcoin address, once I've applied it to my account 1 BTC will be sent.

$20.

If you want a quick and easy option, check out http://www.quickbitcoins.net. They do a lot of volume and offer a number of funding options.

They have agreed that they owe people money. They have refused to pay that money in full, supposedly because they've lost it.

How is this anything other than a scam?

Put another way, if I borrow 100 BTC from you, then fail to secure it and subsequently fail to pay you back, am I a scammer or not?

If you put $100,000 in an account with Chase and they don't return it upon request (within the terms of your agreement), would you consider that acceptable?

Not in as I had nothing in there, but good luck.

I don't want to see Zhou get one, he wasn't proveably involved and he sold the site long before the hack.

For all of the current management, I believe they should be given scammer tags unless they're willing to disclose:

- The management structure at Bitcoinica, who is involved, who was involved.
- A police report number. Two hacks in two months needs to be reported to the proper authorities. Seems very suspicious that a group of statists who have yearned for regulation are so against this.
- The exact BTC and USD total of claims approved and the exact BTC and USD total of funds delivered.

In case anyone's not on the right page, the fact that they themself have approved claims and not paid them makes this very much a scam. Bulanula got a scammer tag over 22.5 BTC (about $100 at the time), and these guys are being negligent with over a million dollars.

So glad that I bypassed this nightmare of a service, personally.

I'm sorry to say that I foresee a long and bloody legal battle ahead for all those involved with Bitcoinica. I fully expect this to be the basis of the first Bitcoin class action lawsuit.

You do not handle a million dollars without insurance, lessons will be learned and the users should not be the ones paying for your gross negligence.
