[BTC-TC] Virtual Community Exchange [CLOSED]

Burnside, can you tell us if you are in legal trouble? Or is it just possible legal trouble?

Things are pretty ugly for me right now.

I don't think I can comment beyond that.

Contact Marc Stevens http://marcstevens.net/

He helped me and many other people in cases involving bureaucratic attacks.

It's well possible to have user-friendly interface for MPEx. In fact, such a thing is just silently passing 1-year mark...

An order entry interface which includes a button labelled "Save" that actually means "Execute" is not a particularly good example of "user-friendly" design...

If there really aren't more serious usability problems, then I'm happy with this assessment I did what I need. For example neither Bitfunder nor BTCT have easily accessible list of currently open orders (so no way to see quickly where the assets are tied) and it seriously peeves me.  

But, maybe serious investors like you really don't need this. Anyway, as written right on the frontpage, we're open to cooperation - if anyone comes with better ideas, we're listening.

Has anyone had an issue withdrawing?  I have a balance showing at the top but not within the withdraw area.

Plug in your personal wallet address here:  https://btct.co/account?tab=tab2

I stand corrected, thanks. And now I see it's on Bitfunder, too, in similar place

I have read through most of this thread from Sept 23rd onward and have not found answers to these questions (but saw them asked a few times):

- Will you be removing the .0025 reserve limit?  It is trivial to each of your customers, but there is no longer any need to have it in place.  Keeping it in place seems like a money grab as you shut down the site.
- Will you be setting the transaction fee to 0?  It is the right thing to do.
- Why wasn't an email sent to all BTC-TC customers?  You have all of the email addresses and should be communicating major announcements (like we're halting trading and closing) directly.

[RoadToHell]

Also, to avoid having to repeatedly answer (or ignore) the same questions, you might want to create a shutdown-faq page on your website and then add a link to it in the 1st post of this thread.

This might actually be one of the best ideas I've read since the announcement.

Bursinde has already addressed the withdraw fee reserve here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=125629.msg3227724#msg3227724

(Spoiler: it is staying till the end)


Let's add this to the List of FAQs.

Its 25cents please get over yourself, you are not getting it back bc it requires a backend change and can result in people overdrawing. Read before 2 days ago!

No, you fuck yourself.  I know it's only a few cents and said as much in the post.  And no, after spending 30 minutes or so reading through posts, I'm not spending any more time to read old posts.  The point was that keeping those small reserve fees from thousands of customers is a money grab.

If he had a running FAQ about the shutdown then I wouldn't even have had to make my first post that seems to have offended you.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO USERS OF BTCT AND LITECOIN GLOBAL

Please make sure you set your public withdrawal address on BTCT and Litecoin Global and you are in control of this address. Team CipherMine and other asset issuers on BTCT and Litecoin-Global may ask you to provide proof of ownership of this address by signing a message. This is necessary to identify you as shareholder after BTCT and Litecoin Global have shut down.

Please take a look at the following post on bitcointalk.org for more information, details and instructions of this process:

I think you're a little overestimating the size of BTCT. Even with a thousand users (with an actual balance) thats 2.5BTC in total. That's nothing compared to the network fees the site has paid over the time. Or did you remember paying any fees for withdrawal?

You're just a little butt hurt over the losses you made the past days and you want at least something in return.

Like I said, it is a money grab.  It looks bad on their behalf and it is for what, a few dollars?  This is at a time when he should be making every possible effort to demonstrate that he is trying to make things right.

Losses?  Since I haven't sold any shares and the companies I hold aren't going down I haven't lost anything.

And for a third time, if he had been maintaining an FAQ on the matter I wouldn't even have had to ask the question.  I tried finding answers to the questions prior to posting them.  But after 30 minutes of reading recent posts in the thread I didn't happen on the posts that answered them.

Sorry - I got side tracked by people attacking me for asking questions and forgot to include - I think the post referenced by Carnth adequately answers the question about the .0025 reserve.

I was just about to post it, it's on the first page of posts done by burnside.
