Is there anybody not invested in Labcoin that actually believes it's a good idea that they be allowed on BF?
If so, what is your reasoning?
It's Ukyo's call, it's non of your business. It's between me and the individuals i was addressing - 'anybody not invested in Labcoin'. I value their objective opinions.

Gimme your login credentials and I'll help you I wouldn't suggest it. So what would you suggest ? Tor not working, and I don't feel like buying a VPN ( not sure it's gonna work, tried hotspot shield and didn't work ) just for using weexchange.

I am not invested in Labcon, I glanced at it some time back and was never impressed enough to pursue it further. Maybe I missed out on riding the bubble up, but I find it is safer to avoid bubbles entirely. About them listing on BitFunder: I see no more reason to exclude them than any of the other shady investment schemes. We are all grown ups, just because something is listed on BitFunder does not mean you have to buy it.

We are all grown ups, just because something is listed on BitFunder does not mean you have to buy it. Nobody claimed we'd be forced buy LABscam simply because BF listed it. What a silly strawman! LAGcoin stole $3 million from clueless amateur investors, and bringing that shitstorm of liability to Bitfunder increases regulatory risk for all other asset issuers/buyers. Scaring potential/existing BF customers away by listing scams also negatively effects the exchange and its users.

We are all grown ups, just because something is listed on BitFunder does not mean you have to buy it. True, we all need to make our own decisions and if Labcoin was just starting out having them listed on BitFunder would be just fine. They have however broken clauses in the prospectus and have made announcements with set dates that they have not met and may never meet. Due to them setting deadlines and missing them and violating the shareholder agreement they should not be listed on BitFunder.

That's a bit dramatic. I think the bitcoin-based securities space for US residents is in peril. This is hardly a bitcoin issue.

there's been more regulation and closures due to regulation in bitcoin environment this year than in the all other years combined. this went from being "unregulated" to regulated quickly

So, the verification process is done on WeExchange.co, nothing needs to be done on Bitfunder.com, right? Documents required are the usual? Photo ID and a proof of residence with a utility bill? And does this make Bitfunder "legit"?

This is hardly a bitcoin issue. lol, i'll concede that. in retrospect my comment was a bit alarmist. however, do bear in mind the other developments looming (Labcoin, SR). lot of press lately. but they say all publicity is good publicity.

exactly. it is unfair for some of us to have access to this information before others. I see the message has come down off the main page. I think this is wise. Market changing news should be disseminated through the proper channels.
Not condemning anybody yet. let's watch this play out.
