In discussion I have called Roman out a couple times. He has not responded. Look for a thread in scam accusations next weekend. |

If I'm interpreting the chart correctly, it looks like Bitfloor has made ~3000 in revenue and paid back ~6000. That means Roman must have paid back ~3000 additional out of his own pocket. What sort of scam are you alleging? |

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Just wanted to relay my recent experience with Bitfloor: I am one of the customers that have BTC being held due to the hack (about 61 BTC..around $2900 in today's terms..  ) Over this last weekend I decided to give Bitfloor another chance and sold about $850 worth of BTC and initiated an ACH withdrawal. The transfer went smoothly and the money was in my bank account today. Although I do wish Roman would be a bit more vocal about what is going on, at least to those with BTC being held, this experience has been a big first step in Bitfloor earning my trust back. Hopefully the recent BTC rally will earn Bitfloor enough volume to release some more of the held BTC..especially in today's market. |

I still use Bitfloor all the time, and generally never have any issues with them. It's way more convenient for deposits and withdrawals than MtGox. The only annoyance is that the buy and sell sides are a bit weak, and at times have a large gap between them, making it more expensive to buy there than at Gox. But that's just a low user problem, and I guess can't be helped.

I spoke with Roman the other week and he pointed out that this actually has ups and downs. The rally has helped volume on bitfloor, but it's also raised the dollar cost of buying coin, which is exactly what bitfloor has to do each time he makes a payment. (fees are earned in dollars) |

The new FinCEN regs are going to put BitFloor out of business. Adios, 12 BTC...

We'll never see them all if he holds fees in dollars and then converts when he pays out. |

Sounds a bit like folks were talking about houses a few years back.. :-P I guess on the bright side it's sorta like a hedge; if the price of bitcoins goes down, you get more of your bitfloor coins faster  . |

I would be willing to bet all my bitfloor coins that they will never again be as cheap as they were at the time of the hack. I can't really complain about him playing it safe though. I just don't think he'll ever be able to pay it all off unless he hedges at least some of it on the bitcoin side. Yes, price can go down, but we are still very early in the price discovery phase. |

The company has a debt denominated in BTC. The hedge would be to hold any profits in BTC. Having a debt in BTC and holding assets in USD isn't a hedge, it is a short position. Imagine if hypothetically Bitcoin rose to $500 USD per BTC. Suddenly the company would owe $15M USD worth of debt. I had hoped that bitfloor would seek outside investors make a deal to fix the debt to USD offer something like a 33% haircut, 33% repaid upfront, and 33% repaid over next x years. As it is holding USD and watching the BTC denominated debt skyrocket is just a stone around the neck of bitfloor.
