Both priv keys brings " unrecognized format" issue on btc sweep option.
The coin I bought off him had the private key dicked with just in case someone else got their hands on it. If I remember rightly he removed the 5 and swapped around the last two characters of the private key which he mentioned in an email on posting it. Good job I remembered that bit. Dunno if he did that for later coins, this was when he was calling himself PBC or something, but worth checking if anyone has a similar issue.

I redeemed a bunch of his coins in the past (the earlier ones and the 'lucky round' coins, never had issues.

Second one not sure but both priv keys brings error when tried to sweep. So sorry but I will be sceptic about his credibility.

Well, I have 5 coins unpeeled. They are the 0.01BTC bought in Feb/March 2014 from Gravitate himself. What are the odds of them being empty? Is anyone interested to "gamble" and buy them? I guess if a lot of people peeled them, I may have some of the last unpeeled coins. I'm a little bit gutted as I gave one to my younger brother (a no-coiner) last Xmas and told him that one day that would pay for his son studies (he doesn't have a son yet ) I have checked on blockchain.info and the addresses he provided me are still funded. But no way to know if the private key under the sticker is matching. so, to peel or not to peel?

You could always try an auction with the starting price set to the minimum you’re willing to accept ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But no way to know if the private key under the sticker is matching. so, to peel or not to peel? I had a few of his 2014 coins that I purchased direct from him. The issue was that the private keys were not valid when trying to redeem. So despite the address showing the coins as funded, there was no way of actually redeeming the balance. Not saying yours have the same issue but it’s not unlikely.

Gravitate does appear at CoinFest UK in Manchester in April next year if you needed to bring it up with him directly.

Considering what many have discovered there'd be far too much doubt for me to ever consider attempting to sell coins that appear to be funded. I'd peel them and sell them afterwards. No possibility for a grind then.

Quick update After quick search thanks to user: vizique i found gravitate and exchanged few messages over TG I got my BTC back which should be on the coins. On top of what should be there OP acctually sent me little bit extra for that hassle. My beef with him is over. I will post some screenshots to prove my words: Convo is more about how he seems to be a victim. All in all got my 0.02btc which should be on the coins. Good luck all.

Could you ask him if he wouldn’t mind me contacting him. I have 5 coins, haven’t peeled them yet. One is with me at home, 3 are in a safe and not easily available (I have to take a plane and stay overnight) and the last one was gifted to my younger brother. I will peel one, I could ask my brother to peel the 2nd one. If none of them are funded, I would like to ask him if he could do something about it. Would you be able to relay my request ? Cheers

Convo is more about how he seems to be a victim.
He is the victim? He's a degenerate French scamming wanker and he can fuck-off. Glad you got your money back, one less victim it is.

After all this time I still don't quite understand his attitude to all this, whether he'd admitted to anything or what has actually occurred. Either all the coins were created correctly in the first place which means he has no ongoing obligations and no need to throw teenage girl wobblies, or they weren't. It seems plenty weren't.

That will help in understanding and publishing his full name (pre or post the conference) online into lists of known scammers and frauds. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's too much distraction in this place. I can only apologise for not doing it sooner, as I've seen it pop up in my watch list and read the thread many times before today.

If you have TG just message me @s1lverbox and lets talk. I rather just provide you his details and you can just follow my steps to recovering some of funds. My advice would be to peel all coins. Because first two rounds was guaranteed btc. Convo with OP might be difficult but personally i wouldnot leave this that way, Every coin owner didnt do anything wrong so they should not pay the price for others mistakes. Good luck all.
