Hashking, Patrick, Victor, Ziggy & anyone else who accepts deposits:
I'm curious if any of you guys have seen a wave of withdrawal requests since the pirate chaos happened. I'm more curious than anything, because there's another deposit taker on these forums who was "not exposed to Pirate" that I always privately suspected of running a de facto pirate passthrough without his depositors' knowledge. This deposit taker went into default a few days after Pirate closed up shop, and blamed it on a sudden deluge of withdrawals in the aftermath of BTCST closing down. So I'm wondering if pulling your deposits is the new "thing to do," or if this phenomenon is confined to just this one deposit taker.
I also have mixed feelings about if I should have aired my suspicions and circumstantial evidence in public weeks ago. We've all seen how Micon & others approached their issues with Pirate and I think the resulting circus was bad for the forum's atmosphere. I didn't want to be "that guy" but I also don't want to see people get ripped off. So that's sort of a private ethical question that I'm wrestling with and would be interested in hearing any perspectives on that as well.
