TYGRR.* assets on GLBSE delisted.

"I'm not preventing you from repaying me the bitcoins of mine that you hold. Just send them to XXXXXXXXXXXX. Now you have no excuse not to repay me amounts that aren't in dispute. But I refuse to release you from any obligations or liability. Holding the Bitcoins you agree you owe me hostage to obtain concessions on a legitimate dispute is scamming."

When I get the funds I will make a note of it. However it is still unclear what will happen to the assets in my account.

See, now this is exactly the kind of thing that has been going on that is making it so damned hard for me to see Goat as credible through this.

He is claiming that he wasn't preventing the return of his BTC, and finally supplies a BTC address (unless he actually sent XXXXXXXXXXXX)... claiming that they were being held hostage, when without an address to send them to, Nefario had no choice but to hold onto them. Saying they were being held hostage implies that Nefario actually had a choice to still have them. Without a withdrawl address (until now), what other choice did he have with them? So, who was the one actually holding them hostage, Nefario without an address to send them to, or Goat, who up until now, refused to supply a withdrawl address in the first place?

Goat, you may actually have a valid argument somewhere in everything you're spouting, but you're constantly exaggerating and escalating, burying whatever argument you're trying to put forth. It is making you less than credible.

Instead of reading your post, I saved time and instead imagined you making fun of Goat and defending Nefario.

I recommend this strategy to others who value their time.

[Dalkore]

Nefario's silence on this issue basically supports the case that this was personally motivated.   He has logged in multiple times and I am quite sure he is aware of the numerous people that have asked for his official statement on this situation.

Caveat Emptor

His silence is so out of place that for a day or two, I assumed there had been an official statement. I assumed I must have just missed it.

So now we're left wondering... will we have more information by the weekend? By next week?

I swear when I started reading these forums, Nefario was quite active.

He is claiming that he wasn't preventing the return of his BTC, and finally supplies a BTC address (unless he actually sent XXXXXXXXXXXX)... claiming that they were being held hostage, when without an address to send them to, Nefario had no choice but to hold onto them. Saying they were being held hostage implies that Nefario actually had a choice to still have them. Without a withdrawl address (until now), what other choice did he have with them? So, who was the one actually holding them hostage, Nefario without an address to send them to, or Goat, who up until now, refused to supply a withdrawl address in the first place?

I believe that Nefario was making Goat conditional offers to return the coins that Goat reasonably interpreted as waiving some of his claims against GLBSE. So Goat did exactly the right thing -- he put an unconditional request for the return of undisputed amounts on the table. If you have any evidence that Nefario or GLBSE ever offered to return the funds that didn't require Goat to waive claims he considered legitimate, please cite it. But the lack of such an offer can reasonably be described as holding the coins hostage.

Goat is documenting his side in the forums in great detail. That makes it very easy to find some minor thing you think is inconsistent. And you keep imagining perfect conduct on the part of GLBSE and Nefario, despite their total silence. If Nefario or GLBSE made an unconditional offer, let them say so. Otherwise, it's grossly unfair for you to imagine that they must have been perfectly willing to do the right thing all along.

By the way, I'm not sure how you figured that this was the first time Goat offered him an address to send the coins to. This may have been one in a long series of similar requests from Goat, just the first he chose to make public. I don't know either way. Without Nefario or GLBSE's side, we can only guess. And again, it appears you made the assumption most unfavorable to Goat. You may know. You may be right. But the rest of us don't know.

Do you at least agree that now there is no excuse for Nefario/GLBSE not returning to Goat amounts that are not in dispute?

[markm]

Do all the issuers who someone kicked off the platform owned shares of get given these codes, so they can track for themselves those of their shareholders who are unable to use GLBSE anymore?

For example if I had an offering on GLBSE of which Goat bought some, would I too have been put in this position of being offered codes, and have to hope Goat got in touch with me with his code to "redeem" his shares I issued that suddenly are not handled by GLBSE?

[Smoovious]

Do you at least agree that now there is no excuse for Nefario/GLBSE not returning to Goat amounts that are not in dispute?

I never made the claim that there was any excuse for not returning the coin, or that there even was a dispute, save for the claim that Goat hadn't sent an address to send them to.

Nefario did post a message on the forums at one point, that that was all he needed.

That really doesn't answer my question.

Nefario did post a message on the forums at one point, that that was all he needed.

Okay, so then is this what happened:

1) Goat and Nefario talk in private.

2) Goat claims Nefario is holding his bitcoins hostage.

3) Nefario publicly claims that all he needs is a withdrawal address and he'll pay Goat back.

4) Goat publicly says to Nefario/GLBSE that if all he needs is a deposit address, here is one. Now pay me.

5) You claim this is evidence Goat was lying back at 2.

If Goat was telling the truth back at 2, isn't what he did in 4 exactly what you would expect -- calling Nefario's on his claim?

It is, by the way, entirely possible that Goat and Nefario simply came back from the discussions at the beginning with different impressions. Goat may genuinely have believed Nefario expected concessions for him to get the undisputed coins back and Nefario genuinely believed he had simply asked Goat to direct him how to repay him. Everything I've seen after that is consistent with this, and we do know that communications broke down at least to some extent.

Very possible. I'm not in a position to know the conversations or actions that have occurred outside the view of this forum or IRC. The actions taking place in private could be very very different, than has been presented here in public for all to see.

What I do see, is grandstanding.

I'm giving my impressions and thoughts based on what has been thrown out in public. Beginning with a dispute, which should never have been made a public spectacle of in the first place, which seems to be the event that brought about the eviction the next wave of grandstanding is about now.

How are parties supposed to work together when pretty much any chance taken is an opportunity to insult and threaten, diminishing whatever position either party has in the first place?

It is the grandstanding that seems to be the show the participants want us focused on and fighting over, not the actual events.

I get enough of this kind of crap in the political forums I participate on, and the same tactics are being employed right now, here.

Until new information comes out from either of the involved parties (and there hasn't been for about a week now), then we'll have more to talk about.

At this point it is all based on assumptions and conjecture. So many "facts" being thrown around that I have yet to see substantiation for, and a whole lot of inaction.

The way it looks to me, Goat gets the blame because he seems to be doing the most to incite a riot rather than actually work the problem. At least, in public, anyways.

-- Smoov

[pyrkne]

I agree with Smoov - that bitcointalk and particularly the Securities subforum needs less grandstanding. It is counter productive, and happens to be one of the few things that manages to annoy me over the web.

To play "devil's advocate" though - it seems there is a minimum amount of grandstanding required to get a response.

This community should probably learn to be more cooperative.

[JoelKatz]

The way it looks to me, Goat gets the blame because he seems to be doing the most to incite a riot rather than actually work the problem. At least, in public, anyways.

If Goat is unable to get GLBSE/Nefario to work with him in private, what else should he do? I am not saying that Goat's conduct has been a shining example of reason and patience, far from it. However, GLBSE's complete abandonment of its obligation to protect its customers' interest is, frankly, stunning to me. From where I'm sitting, it doesn't look like Nefario/GLBSE has lifted a finger to help those who held Goat's assets, their customers. This is a much bigger deal. (Although, it's entirely possible that GLBSE is trying hard to work with Goat in private and Goat is stonewalling. I don't know. I'm just trying to provide a fairer balance.)

GLBSE's position seem to be that as soon as they delist a stock, which they can do at any time for any reason, they have no obligation whatsoever to the holders of that stock. That despite the fact that they're the only entity that can communicate with them and there is no known way to redeem the assets without their cooperation. There also seem to be no controls on who can order a delisting and who decides how customers' interest will be protected. There is no evidence GLBSE/Nefario thought for even a second about the collateral damage a delisting would cause, and it appears that nobody did. This is completely unacceptable and goes way beyond the present issue with Goat.

and once again, you try and bring that topic back up to draw me into again, and my response hasn't changed since the last couple of times.

In my opinion, GLBSE has no such obligation to manage your assets for a listing that is no longer on the exchange.

GLBSE's obligation is to supply the 'company' a complete list of who has what shares, and since GLBSE was anonymous to begin with, claim ID's were used to avoid giving out account information that the users had been accustomed to be kept private.

The share-holders have enough information to link themselves up with the shares on the list, and can do so at any time.

In my opinion, users who are expecting GLBSE to continue handling their shares, including but not limited to, assisting them in getting them sold off so they can cash out, are expecting more than they have a right to expect from GLBSE at this point, since those shares are no longer listed on GLBSE.

My opinion on this isn't going to change, so lets retire that topic, ok?

They can barely maintain an exchange site as it is.  You expect a forum as well?

The share-holders have enough information to link themselves up with the shares on the list, and can do so at any time.

I thought we had already agreed that this was insufficient. Specifically:

1) It doesn't allow the issuer to contact the owners. This makes a two phase redeem impossible. There is no way other than a two phase redeem to avoid having to honor a claim code twice.

2) It gives the issuer no way to handle earnest claims that don't match the list of codes.

In my opinion, users who are expecting GLBSE to continue handling their shares, including but not limited to, assisting them in getting them sold off so they can cash out, are expecting more than they have a right to expect from GLBSE at this point, since those shares are no longer listed on GLBSE.

Didn't you agree that this was insufficient? What happens if an asset owner sends a claim code and the issuer says that claim code wasn't on the list? They claim the issuer is scamming. The issuer claims the code wasn't on the list. How can that possibly be resolved if GLBSE doesn't assist?

My opinion on this isn't going to change, so lets retire that topic, ok?

It seems it has just changed and you are back to the position I thought I had argued you out of.

[markm]

Well obviously the user can prove that GLBSE did give them that specific code, right? By showing that it is signed using GLBSE's private key?

But GLBSE maybe ought to have a signed by Goat list of codes Goat acknowleges having been given by GLBSE.

Each user should maybe have been given the hash of the list that was given to Goat as well as the signed by GLBSE code. Actually the message containing both would be signed in such a case presumably.

Goat is screwed though if the list he was given does not in fact hash to the hash GLBSE told the users it hashed to.

No, we didn't.

1) It doesn't allow the issuer to contact the owners. This makes a two phase redeem impossible. There is no way other than a two phase redeem to avoid having to honor a claim code twice.

The owners were given contact information of the issuer. That is the minimum needed. If GLBSE wasn't an anonymous-owner site, this wouldn't be an issue, but since it is, GLBSE is still obligated to protect the identity of its userbase. Ties between GLBSE and TYGRR have been terminated. It isn't GLBSE's responsibility to facilitate communication between issuer and shareholder, beyond giving the issuer's contact information.

2) It gives the issuer no way to handle earnest claims that don't match the list of codes.

If it doesn't match the list, it isn't a valid claim. Simple.

In my opinion, users who are expecting GLBSE to continue handling their shares, including but not limited to, assisting them in getting them sold off so they can cash out, are expecting more than they have a right to expect from GLBSE at this point, since those shares are no longer listed on GLBSE.

I said it could have been done better, sure, but just because it could have been done better, doesn't mean they are obligated to.

My opinion on this isn't going to change, so lets retire that topic, ok?

It seems it has just changed and you are back to the position I thought I had argued you out of.

I still hold the same position I did before.

We're dealing with different questions.

Could a better system have been implemented? Perhaps a condition to the TOS where if an asset is delisted, then the asset-holder's contact information would be disclosed to the issuer? Sure. There can always be improvement.

Is GLBSE obligated to do more than it has, and continue to facilitate getting shares sold off or traded, or handle any of the delisted company's accounting? No, I don't believe it is.

We all can certainly agree that Goat doesn't like the claim codes and all the work that he is going to have to do to get his shareholder list built up, and to deal with all of the trades and dividends himself, that he would have preferred some kind of encrypted list or other authentication, perhaps even a simple checksum instead of nothing.

That doesn't mean GLBSE was obligated to provide those things. GLBSE supplied the list of codes for when asset-holders contact Goat about their shares and dividends, etc.

I have heard of no reason to believe that list is fraudulent.

I have heard of no complaints that two people ended up having the same code.

As far as I'm concerned, while not ideal, it is definitely workable, and I know the more I antagonize Nefario, the less likely I would be able to expect him to answer queries about a discrepancy that might come up, but yet hasn't, in a timely manner.

I am curious to find out how much of Goat's shareholder list he has assembled so far. Even with his objections, he should still be working on that in the meantime.
