I am most definitely aware of these risks, you're right to point them out ~ however, like I said, sometimes all it takes is the discretion of an automated and frankly
glitchy interface handling your money to wipe you out even if you've done nothing fraudulent.
I'm offering a way that trades a little bit of uncertainty for an exponentially better frame of time, and not only that, but rate-wise too. If it meant it could be done in an hour, I'd be willing to sell off my considerable stash of SLL for half of what I'd get paid by the cursed Lindex system. Currently L$50,000 is worth around $200 and roughly 2 BTC right now before factoring in fees and innocuous margins of error; I'm ready to let that go for 1BTC, negotiable, if anyone would be up for the deal (not right this moment as it's 5.a.m where I am and spring break ~just~ ended, but I'm talking long term).
And in the unfortunate event Linden Labs decides to give your account shit, I'll give a full refund back to your address; this is all about making life quicker and easier, and making friends along the way
So I'm aware it's high-risk high-reward. That's a given, and I'll choose it over the low-risk but high-frustration, high-waiting time, and high-chance-of-getting-jack-shit situation of selling my Lindens to an automated system. And as always, if anyone knows where I could search elsewhere for people who'd potentially be down for such dealings, please don't be a stranger.
