It looks like that's that.
I'm very disappointed that this sort of scam would happen even still.
At the very least, I hope everyone makes absolutely certain that arij loses all trust possible after this mass theft.
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm taking everything I've got out of businesses for good. Bitcoin startups can't be trusted, apparently.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

I reiterate: does anyone have names of the people involved, please?
Both current criminal owners, and previous owners.

Hello,
We wanted to announce that all shareholders have been paid out. We needed to balance the books for the month of June before we could send out the last payment which went out today.
Thanks,
BitVPS

fraud!I am the biggest shareholder,I have 56800 shares which I can receive around 3btcs,I accept that,but they didnt even pay me that 3btcs.till today.
I have sent dozens of emails to them this is the last they replay me on 16th june
All people will be paid out before 30th june as said. You were one of the last to send in the investor info so you will be one of the last to get paid.

You should not accept that. It's peanuts. What they are doing is illegal and they must be prosecuted. |

Lies. The amount you offered to pay was the digital equivalent of flipping the middle finger. I know for a fact that not all shareholders jumped through your hoops to accept this insulting offer. Therefore 'all shareholders' have not been paid out. Anyway. Good riddance. |

The new "owners" just decided to void all shares and keep the company for themselves, offering a few peanuts in return. |

Which must obviously be written very clearly in the contract, you can't just "buyback for any sum you feel to". You're a thief, get along with it. You'll get caught sooner or later, and will live in fear meanwhile, that's what happens to people like you. |

Wow. As a shareholder (albeit small), this is upsetting. I do not go onto IRC anymore, and never received an email about this. I am guessing my shares are just dead in the water? Why were we told something different when btct.co shutdown? I would have sold then. Btct.co shutdown was after you bought BitVPS, correct?
For someone who seemed to be so anti-scam and aggressive on IRC towards scammers, you certainly pulled a complete 180 here, Arij. Regardless of what your lawyer tells you or how you feel personally, this was a horrible move for BitVPS and it's notoriety.
Also, good to know rg screwed us initially. That's the third or fourth IRC op/admin that has done something like this with my investment. Hooray for the early adopter community!

About the same as Danny Brewster, Ukyo, Eric Corlew, Graet, Alberto Armani etc etc. Nothing most likely. |
