Discussion about 10,000BTC Bet (Official)

[Rassah]

Honestly, the thing that I'm upset with the most is the way he weaseled out of it. "Pay to that address?" Honestly? I thought Matthew was much more clever than this. I fully didn't expect him to pay, but I at least hoped he would come up with some crazy or at least interesting reason not to. This was just sad. Matthew, I am dissapoint

Matthew committed fraud, plain and simple. While I'm personally only disappointed that I'm not getting 400 BTC, others used this bet as their main method of hedging against Pirate or made other investment decisions based on this bet because they trusted Matthew. Matthew has demonstrated that he is unworthy of anyone's trust.

I guess I was right the first time.

I have no confidence in [Matthew]'s sense of morality, and I will never trade with him.

Aweee. Theymos..


I love you!


Its about time people realized how damaging he is to the community, let alone the image he vomits onto bitcoin mag..

Horse is a horse, of course..

Troll scammer is a troll scammer..

[makomk]

Speaking of which, Matthew still appears to be showing up as Hero Member as well as a Scammer. theymos, is it possible to fix that or is it baked into the forum software somehow?

[CoinCidental]

so, did we learn our lesson?

Well I didn't have a bet but I did learn that Matt is immature, irresponsible, and reckless.  I won't be trusting him or any person or company that associates with him.

Not sure if that was the lesson he was trying to teach.

great lesson for the bitcoin community ,even the people who speak publicly to the media to represent bitcoin are scammers

pretty crappy way to exit  from the bitcoin world MNW

at least pirate made a clean exit with a profit of a few million $

MNW is going to be known as a scamming cunt for free ?

[theymos]

Please REMOVE him permanently from the staff of this forum.

I did.

I can't easily remove that without modifying his post count.

[muyuu]

I'm looking forward to see you in London, Matthew.

Yes, but at least give him the scammer avatar.

Lol - I guess a public wedgie would be appropriate. Looking forward to see it live!

There is no scammer avatar that is just something made up by one scammer as a some kind of insane badge of honor.

Ah, I see.  Well Matt needs to be banned for this then.

What a fucking clown. Good job dicking over pirate debt holders even more by allowing them to "hedge" with a fraudulent bet you never intended to pay. Good job on teaching those guys a lesson  .

Me too! I'll be happy to sign anything you want too.

Curious, is there a way to silence his account forever?

Seems Matthew is more of a detriment to bitcoin than a help. He has good ideas but his own ego gets the best of him and ends up hurting others and their businesses (as we will likely see). He needs to be silenced  in my opinion.

Oh come now. Theymos allows ponzi schemes on the forum, then gets miffed when people don't read the bet their agreeing to in my thread? The double standard is twice as hilarious as the "scammer" tag. I'll wear it with pride. Remember, remember, the 9th of September. (And to everyone who dared to say that people were "stupid" and "ruining bitcoin" by investing into Pirate, you may now eat your socks for complaining about losing this bet)

Public appearance. Perhaps people should bring tomatoes and other vegetables.

I sure hope people who are listening to you speak out you for the liar and scammer you are.
