[A Pimp Named Slickback]

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=102918.0

Many of us in #btcst on Freenode have come together and filed against your unregistered, fraudulent hedging program. You as a US Citizen have victimized many abroad and domestically. You have broken many Security and Gambling laws in Korea and in the United States.

You will be brought to justice by either the SEC, Korean authorities or other international authorities.

If you have been a victim of Matthew's fraudulent conduct, please report it here under insurance: https://denebleo.sec.gov/TCRExternal/questionaire.xhtml

How was anyone a victim? 

Was there any loss involved?

If there is no loss, how can there be a victim?

Oh for fucks sake

I sincerely hope you are just trolling

The Bitcoin babies need the daddy/god/state to change their diapers again

Matthew would've taken the funds of his bettors if he had won his bet. People only gave him this opportunity of huge winnings by fraudulently misrepresenting his enterprise.

It's a case of endangerment and severe fraud. Financial fraud is a crime in most first-world countries.

Would have?  You're going to persecute someone over something that didn't happen?

Is this a joke?

People have hedged with Bitcoin Savings and Trust securities along with Matthew's bet. In essence, he has offered a fraudulent security which he marketed to many as a hedging instrument.

There has been financial loss.

I encourage you to file. The more people that file, the quicker this can be resolved.

1)  If, as you claim, he offered a faulty security, then why was it in the gambling subsection?  Moreover, if everyone really thought this was a hedging instrument, then why did no moderator place the thread in the appropriate forum section?

2)  Financial loss?  To whom?  How would you calculate this loss?

So being stupid twice calls for being stupid a third time by calling in the State to protect people from themselves?

His service meets the legal definition of a security. The forum's policies have no relevance.

Who here has suffered financial, emotional and other losses from Matthew's financial service?

Well, I only had a testimonial bet for shits and giggles with him. Anyway I can email the Financial Services Authority here in the UK as he's flying to London in a few days.

If his service was in the gambling section, then it's clear that the intent was to be a gamble and not a security. 

I'm interested to see who suffered any calculable, financial loss.  You said "there was financial loss," and I want to see it.

Emotional loss?  Are you serious?  Are you sure it's not just the inevitable result of being a bad gambler and being irresponsible with money?

I still don't know what this is all about.

I missed out on a major event it seems.

I feel so disenfranchised!

I prefer lynch mobs and private justice, but if you don't have any effective means of retribution BTC is not going to fly and will remain an insane asylum of jokes, scammers and trolls.

I love how a bunch of angsty teens seem to think the State goes away if you don't look at it and ignore it.

To change the rules, you have to play by the rules. Grow up, guys.

The State is a thief and a murderer and should be avoided whenever possible.

BTW, I'm most likely much older than a majority of this forum. If you're looking for teen angst, try reddit.

Whatever it is, it's there for the bad so you're just a self-defeating moron if you don't use it for your own good, even if it's in order to subvert it.
