Completed another trade today (thanks stoppots for the repeat business). Still time to get funded for the Super Bowl; current price is approximate $20/coin.

Vendor acceptance is the only way to increase real value. Anything else you can imagine is just a form of speculative bubble that will eventually pop.

Use Bitfinex.com. I've been trying them out recently, and I was able to get execute shorts flawlessly.
I second this recommendation. Bitfinex is very useful (allows shorting, margin trading, and no risk loaning). |

I often hear comments such as "I like your service; I would use it more often if there was more volume." Obviously this is a chicken and egg problem. Speaking of chicken and egg problems, your industry high (for USD exchanges) fee rates greatly discourage use of your site. I understand you need revenue, but I don't see how you'll grow with your current fee rates. Note, this is not a compliant; just an observation. |

I couldn't care less about how much (i.e. little) you've made on BTCJam, but if you want to brag about how awesome you are, you should be willing to back it up. Obviously you won't because you can't, but hey keep stroking yourself if you like. Fact is you are nothing special - just one of a million internet "geniuses" who are all talk and posturing.
It was obviously a big deal to you since you decided to post about how I posted a picture of what my account pass due and account pending investments and you were all up in arms about that I didn't show the account investment balance. So you do care LOL it is ok your just mad. Nope, as usual your "logic" is highly flawed. Reality is, that I just don't like a bullshitter or a better-than-thou troll and you sir are grade A in both categories. I will continue to call out your nonsense as long as you feel the need to attact anyone and everyone who has a negative experience with BTCJam. P.S. I wouldn't even be surprised to learn that A) you have invested a total of 0 coins ever; or B) you actually have lost funds and took the screen shot from your borrowed funds list. |

LOL. You have nothing currently invested and cut off the amount paid back (probably because you invested like 1 coin ever), yet you spend endless time here promoting the site, talking about how awesome you are at lending, and calling everyone else a fool?! Thanks for proving what everyone already knew - you are a douchebag full of nothing but hot air.
First off currently I invested in a loan, that is below 70% so obviously that will not show up in the pending amount. Second why should I show you how much I make, I don't want you to get upset when you see the number. But I can say it a lot more than 1 coin, probably more than you have seen in your wallet. You can call me whatever you want, I think it is a great site, and I think some people here, are jealous of how others can use the site and make good money. Also just a third off topic comment for you, even if I did show you how much I made off the site, you be jealous, but there are like 3 people that I met off that site and they keep coming back and they pay very well for the loan of my money, so yeah I don't even need to use the site, I could live off those 3 lendees. Amazing how other people want to keep my books for me, maybe I can hire ThaddeusB to be my book keeper I may need one soon. Also just another aside, I am currently working on site and soon will be launching that so yeah, my time is kinda taken up. I couldn't care less about how much (i.e. little) you've made on BTCJam, but if you want to brag about how awesome you are, you should be willing to back it up. Obviously you won't because you can't, but hey keep stroking yourself if you like. Fact is you are nothing special - just one of a million internet "geniuses" who are all talk and posturing. |

Another stupid person who doesn't understand P2P loans... Please google it and then you will not be dumb. I will always be on btcjam I yet to be scammed cause you have to accept responsibility for the loans you make. Obviously you didn't read the loans just went by verification score. That is very bad, and now your mad so you think the site sucks, that is a poor excuse for your stupidity. I would teach you how to pick good loans but then why would I do that, so 10btcs I can help you pick loans and take a way a lot of risk by looking at the actual loan and not there scores.
Maybe you should re-read what I wrote. I never mentioned anything about the site sucking. I said that if the people requesting loans are only there to scam and default, there will be no lenders, and the site will collapse. I read every loan, keeping in mind that any text could be complete bullshit. I only loaned on reasonable sounding ones with people that have positive feedback and previous loans. I only lent what was I willing to lose. Post up your BTCJam loans, let's see your track record.  I have lost nothing, I have never been scammed on btcjam. You did say the site sucks, cause you can't pick non-scammers from scammers. In every p2p lending site, people will be scammed, people are scammed here on this forum, so to say that people that requesting to just scam, will drive away lenders is so dumb. Cause people like me know where the scammers are and how to avoid them you honestly didn't. As btcjam's owner said they do 77% payback that is a good number right now, you picked the scammers your dumb. Sorry, that is life, I was willing to help you for 10btcs. LOL. You have nothing currently invested and cut the amount paid back from your picture (probably because you invested like 1 coin ever), yet you spend endless time here promoting the site, talking about how awesome you are at lending, and calling everyone else a fool?! Thanks for proving what everyone already knew - you are a douchebag full of nothing but hot air. |

I've listed altcoins on OTC a few times, but it has yet to attract any interest.

Dead right on BTCJam. The site enablers scammers in many ways (e.g. forbidding lenders to contact buyers), makes false promises ("we'll report deadbeats to credit agencies soon..." has been "soon" since day 1), and in general has terrible customer service. Unfortuantely, if you dare make a negative comment in the BTCJam thread some guy who thinks everyone but him is a fools because he is 2 for 2 on not getting scammed will jump in and insult you and reap praise on the site.
Reported repay rate (if not an unright lie) is inflated by scammers who repay a 1 BTC loan, then a 2 BTC loan to get a reputation and then stiff on two 10 BTC loans. That looks like 50% repaid, but is really 13% (3/23) in terms on BTC. I suspect the real repay rate is well under 50%. (And yah even teh claimed rate amounts to a huge -EV situation for lenders.)

Considering a total of zero people invested in either of the bad loans you pointed out, its pretty obvious that no one is having trouble differentiating between garbage like those and legit opportunities. If you and your pal gweedo really brag about how awesome you are, either disclose your full record or point out current loans where people are investing that you think are scams. Pointing to empty listings that absolutely no one was stupid enough to invest in hardly proves you are smarter than anyone else. |

Dudes, seriously.
You are running stolen code which has already failed once creating the blow-up of one of the largest scams in Bitcoin history. The Bitcoinica liquidator is still liquidating it to this day.
You are running a site you aren't either qualified or able to run, as proven for instance by the fact that when the Ruby on Rails vulnerability happened you had to find out from me, and as proven for instance by the fact that when you did find out from me your reaction was the typical denial&idiocy one'd expect from clueless noobs that have no business anywhere near OPM.
You are running a site nobody gives two shits about, let alone uses, as proven by the fact that nobody bothered to own your ass when the RoR vuln came out, and as proven by the fact that you're the only two dudes even bothering to post here.
Just...forget about it already, okay? It makes no sense for anyone to send you BTC (and even less sense to send you fiat), consequently it will never happen. All this pretense you're trying to push is about as stale as a 1967 Oreo cookie.
Over 17,000 bitcoins have been traded on Bitfinex over the last 7 days; over $32,000 are currently lent out. I would hardly call those numbers evidence that "nobody cares". I, for one, find the site to be very useful. The site does not have a hot wallet or automated withdrawal mechanism. Thus, your assumption about why it did not experience theft is incorrect. |

Hello again,
I replied to your PM within a few hours. Three days later, you haven't gotten back to me about the OTC issue. If you could let me know why I am having problems with it, I would apprfeciate it.
Thanks,
Thaddeus

Please increase the max interest limit. 99.999999% is too low  the record offer I did see was 4000% If one tries to post an offer higher than 100%, the system returns "Invalid offer: rate tow high, maximum is 99.999999" (note also the typo in the word too). Oh sorry, that as not suppose to be here. Updating right now. You can post offer at more than 100% Awesome |

Hello,
I am having a few issues with my BTCJam account. Emails have been ignored, so I'll post here.
1: When I try to sync eith my OTC user name, I get "Error retrieving gpg keyid." I am sure the GPG key is correct: I have used it to log into OTC today and can manually query the server and find it. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
2: When I tried to verify my phone number, I got a "something went wrong" message. Can you reset it, so I can try again?
3: CRUCIAL ERROR - I can't change my withdrawal address. When I try to update my settings, it complains "Phone checks is too long (maximum is 3 characters)" even though the phone check isn't even on that page.
My BTCJam ID is ThaddeusB.
Thanks

I'm just curious. If you have been 'successfully' trading stocks for 10 years..... dont you have 125usd to buy 2000 ltc's ?
+1 OP makes no sense. Claims to have a successful track record of trading 10+ years but can't dish out ~$130 to buy 2000 LTC. Explanation? Getting funds into BTC-e is not free in terms of time, effort, or even money. It's more economical to me to pay ~$13 of interest than go through the hassle and expense of buying in directly. In addition, dealing directly in LTC protects me against exchange rate risk. Like I said in the linked post, I am happy to provide proof $50k of online assets if a lender desires. Getting BTC into BTC-e takes about 90minutes max. Like I said, I want to keep my BTC for BTC trading... and buying more BTC certainly is not hassle free, at least in my experience. Anyway, I received the requested loan via PM, so I'm good for now unless someone wants to lend me a different altcoin. Thanks, Thaddeus |

What time will more BTC-e reserves be available?

Note to all, an option never obligates the purchaser to buy (or sell). Please do not call obligatory contracts options; it just confuses matters.

Hmm already enough funds to buy 2000 LTC but want to lend it instead.... Hmm could it be that you want to go short LTC? Hmmm  . Sorry I do not want to help driving down price of LTC, but I wish you good luck in your trading! Actually I'd prefer to keep my BTC for BTC trading. A sale of 2000 LTC at market would drop it precisely 0.00001 BTC at present, so I don't think 2k can have any real effect on market prices. |
