So, does anyone think that there will be a price spike in xpy immediately before the start of february?
I'm still trying to decide if I should liquidate now or wait for the muppets to go in on a buying spree (ermehgrd, 20$ a coin!!!)
Normally any future expectations would already be priced in by the market, but this is not a normal market, so who knows  Also it depends on what if any details about the buy back GAW will announce. Yeah, normally I think efficient market theory would be appropriate but Homero likes dropping bombshells. Who knows :-/ I have a feeling a day before the launch of the buyback program GAW will sound out a mailer saying "last chance to get in on cheap coins!" and there will be a small buying spree. But maybe they also could be laying low. I don't really know. |

 Then I moved up to a Vic 20 when those came out- what a powerhouse! And COLOR even! Pretty sure I paid more for that Vic 20 setup (with the fancy tape recorder and extra memory, IO adapter, etc) than I have in my current rig. That's...that's a computer  Yup, just gotta hook it up to a tv or monitor. And oh yea, you had to assemble the stuff yourself. Came as a kit. Im not quite old enough for those but i remember bending CPU pins and straightening them out because i put them in a socket wrong and trying to work out the right way to put cables in before everything was keyed and fit only one way.... Missed out on the fun of soldering much though. Mainly soldered new caps etc during repairs. To people these days the amount of work involved would be stunning. These days i can put a basic system together in 15mins. Most of that unpacking time. My first computer took days to get right If you ever really want to learn, you can still find the schematics for the Apple I, complete with wiring diagrams. You may have to hunt for the ICs, but you can literally build the entire thing from scratch. |

So, for those of us who are bag holders - if there is an SEC investigation underway - what is our best course of action? Keep our coins on paybase? Liquidate all of them ASAP to try and get something out of them before they become 0-sales? Hold on to them?
Sadly I've got about 100XPY - not as much as many people, but still enough that I'd like to not walk away.

We need to hunt down those forum posts and get them archived. I would do this but hashtalk doesn't load at my job for some reason.
Most of them are deleted, but probably already archived. Or on that 1.4GB archive that I just downloaded and will be torrenting soon... Also, I'll scrub through it when I get a chance. I think we should make our own coin... Paycoined and symbol it "PND" What do you all think? We can even just copy and paste PPC and add a few hyper-inflationary items just for kicks... I will be seeding it for the next few days. If you can provide a link to the torrent that would be awesome. |

If anybody can hook me up with a hacked Prime Controller I'd be happy to buy some coins and then dump my super inflation on the exchange. I tried to figure out a while ago how I could get voted into one of them Primes if I buy 125k coins. Turns out they were just hardcoded in the source code. On top of that not all Primes are equal, the 350 ones are the real deal. I wish I knew vancefox's findings yesterday, that rogue Prime would have made a much better question for CCN. Jmordica says that is their test Prime...which just really confuses me. A few immediate questions are 1) Where did the test coins come from? 2) Why are they staking real coins in a test environment on a prime that isn't registered? In general, this is just very confusing. I can't really understand this one. I want to know why they are using their "test prime" outside of the test network. |

Looks like they already found a few replacements already for admin, dokom, rootdude, Daffy
Daffy would be a good choice, but ROOTDUDE? Lol He has a fuse that gets lit almost every minute. Instead of educating people there that have asked questions, some didn't know and were trying to learn, he blew up on them.... Rootdude always came off like a douche. Folks ask legit questions and he seems to be more interested in shitting all over them than actually being helpful. Honestly - the new mod/admin lineup reminds me of Bitcoin Trader appointing Thomas Opperman and Rob Drover as admins. |

How many confirmations are needed before a sale goes through? I ordered 19 shares about 30 minutes ago, and have 3 confirmations on payment. https://blockchain.info/address/1G45PWT34C7F6PVev81mG4ctDxtxYZDpBTEdit: Just got an email that the sale was completed but I haven't recieved the shares. Assuming this is done manually? Edit 2: Got an email from seller, my shares were sent. Thanks again! |

My website seemed to have just went down as you placed that order, I'm trying to sort things out -- not sure why there is a markup on coinpayments. I'll look into that. As far as the feedback, ALL MY FEEDBACK IS LEGIT AND VERIFIABLE. ASK ANYONE ON IRC OR WHO HAS TRADED WITH OR BOUGHT FROM ME.
I HAVE NO REASON TO FAKE FEEDBACK.
YES, WOLFBG is my brother IRL but he bought shares from me just like everybody else. If I were out to scam people why would I still be around and why would I not be getting BOMBARDED with scammer complaints? Get a grip! I've been in the customer service business for over 10 years, all you guys want to do is nit pick about silly stuff. Who cares. If you don't want to buy from ltcgearshares.net -- that's fine, but the scam accusations have to stop. Tyrent, Aizen as well as EVERY SINGLE person who has purchased from me will vouch for the legitimacy.
Now, I'm trying to sort out the issues with my host -- I login to my cpanel and my website appears to be GONE (Never buy from namecheap, this is the 2nd time it's went down within a week)
Last time this happened, they said they had no record of my order until miraculously my website showed back up after a few hours. Apparently their datacenter was being worked on. Perhaps the same story here, except this time I can actually login to cpanel it just appears everything is gone. I'm sure they'll sort it out eventually.
TO the person who just placed an order, please email me @ ltcgearshares.net -- I'll give you the difference, and send your shares immediately.
Sorry for the confusion, I just noticed my site going down and apparently it went down RIGHT as you ordered.
As far as the feedback trolls, get off my thread.
So, despite the problem with the website I got in touch with ltcgearshares via email. I forwarded over both emails from coinpayments to them and they credited me the qAsics to my ltcgear account. All things considered it was a very fast response and great communication. Here is my account history on ltcgear showing the transactions (I placed a small 10 qAsic purchase last night, and then made the dive with a 1000 qAsic purchase this morning). http://imgur.com/HeNIHbCAnd here is the transaction id on the blockchain: https://blockchain.info/tx/d2f3bf844112ab554efd87784390064de0a4aff923a5c2deb3a703d6b4574a49Here's hoping they get their website issues sorted out, but in the meantime my experience so far across 2 transactions (1 small, 1 large) has been positive. Thanks again! |

Just placed an order for 1k qAsics. For some reason the checkout price using the bitcoin option was 1.58BTC, where the coinpayments.net was 1.53. That's not a small difference. I obviously went with coinpayments. Waiting on the confirmation of the purchase and receipt.
Also - site just went down it looks like? Horrible timing...
Edit:
Just spoke to ltcgearshares and everything is resolved, though their website still is experiencing issues.
Honestly, all things considered, the communication was awesome. I'd definitely do business again.

I just placed an order this evening - small, just 10qasics. It took a few confirmations for it to be processed but the transaction went smoothly. Once I received the confirmation about payment the qasics showed up in my account almost immediately.

I hate to say I told.... No... wait... That's not right.
It is with great pleasure that I say: I told you so!
And you are here in this forum just to say stuff like this right? Starting months ago, I made lengthy posts explaining in detail why BT was a Ponzi scheme. I think I did my fair share to warn people to stay the hell away. Regardless, people invested and lost. I suggest that those that have no stake in this or have no specific information to help us track down our funds / punish those involved should be so kind as to leave this forum. Not sure why you are here at this point actually. Nothing to see here, move along. Find another forum to warn folks about the next Zombie Apocalypse. Maybe it's the same ignorant arrogance that made you greedy enough to invest in this ponzi because it was 'bitcoin' that is now showing through when you tell senior members who have seen this all before to get off a thread because you, registered today, want your money back. Haha! Dude you are a sad individual. I hope you enjoy your life of trolling forums that have nothing to do with you. Blahblahblah.... I looked very closely at BT as an investment for myself and acknowledge that it was advice from this forum that helped me see that it was probably a fake. The people you're telling to go away helped save me -and others, no doubt- a lot of money and stress, because they prompted due diligence and caution, despite greed whispering "Go on, it will be fine." Take your juvenile ranting to the bank asshole. That is exactly why I said that his opinion earlier was certainly warranted. His comments now are him and others like him being the asshole. And what is it with everyone using the word "greed"? Greed is when you go to the pot luck at Thanksgiving and take all of the macaroni and cheese before anyone else gets any. What does it have to do with somebody trying to make money off of an investment. Selfishness (greed) has nothing to do with why somebody would make a risky gamble. If you are making a risky gamble with somebody else's money, that is greed. Using your own can be stupid, unwise, risky, crazy, whatever. You are using greed wrong. I have to disagree. Greed is what incites you to take the risky gamble in the first place. You take all of the information, weigh it, and decide whether or not it is a good or bad risk, and you roll the dice. Hell, I bet there is a doctorate in Game Theory in here somewhere about playing HYIPs. I'd even argue that when you do all of the work ahead of time, it goes from being a simple gamble to a calculated risk, which is a very different beast. Greed is what motivates those steps.  |

They lost money and gained a life lesson. It's still a trade. No reason to be upset with whom told ya so. Not upset. Just trying to turn this thread into something productive. Agreed. I'd be happy to know Carley is in a PMITA Panamanian prison. |

Gentlemen, it was a pleasure earning with you.

just received: Dear Clients Regrettably I have to announce the failure and closure of Bitcoin Trader. While preparing for the final audit results, a task we were working on for weeks now, our bitcoin wallet has been hacked and emptied, just after exchanging our fiat holdings within the exchanges to bitcoin and transferring our entire holdings to our wallet, in order to proof our solvency. It is a known fact that I personally opposed any proof of solvency, but agreed to conduct it for the sake of a few dozen small and medium investors. The hacker contacted me shortly after he took advantage of our holdings and demanded a ransom in order to transfer the coins back. I have agreed to a 25% ransom of the entire sum, but haven’t heard back from him for several days now. My aim was to create something based on trust, just as bitcoin itself is based on distributed trust. Unfortunately I must admit today, I have failed. All left to do now is to declare bankruptcy with the Panamanian authorities and to hand over all relevant files and information for further investigation. Sincerely, John Carley  Well that was anticlimactic, lol. |
