I've had the ponzi argument via public forum on multiple occasions. It comes down to people not knowing what a ponzi scheme is. Early adopters profiting more than late comers =/= ponzi scheme.
100% incorrect, quite ironically. What about this is incorrect? In a Ponzie early investors may profit but usually they just think they are profiting as the are paid unrealistic amounts of interest in their investment - that is to attract in more victims. The late comers lose everything as the scam is run down. Its not about late comers getting a smaller slice of the pie, all of their money is taken and they see none of it back. So, you're both actually saying the exactly the same thing, but you've decided to insist that kleeck is 100% incorrect. Makes perfect sense. |

kleeck says: X is not a Ponzi scheme minerpart says: 100% wrong! X is not a Ponzi scheme. Not sure what's "very very different" about these two. |

minerpart seems confused about the meaning of "=/=" Not everyone finished elementary school math I guess.  Minerpart, it means "does not equal" |

So we were saying the same thing sorry kleeck. I googled =/= and nothing came up so I assumed you were meaning 'is equal to'. Maybe not using something as obscure as '=/=' is a good idea on a general forum? Visually it is far removed from the actuall 'does not equal' symbol that is clearly recognizeable. |

"I don't know what you said, so I will assume you said what I feel like arguing with."? If you can't follow the conversation, wouldn't it be prudent to lurk moar? |

Misunderstandings do happen. We can't all be perfect like you. |

Keeps getting buried under senseless jabbering here. But ActiveMining was written up on Bloomberg. Good news. |

I don't think some people are considering how good that article was; it's not good just because we were mentioned, but that we were mentioned in such a well known publication. Not to say it's completely trivial to be mentioned in a niche Bitcoin blog, but they really don't carry the same weight of influence. That kind of publicity is hard to grab. Whose name was sitting there right next to some of the biggest names in Bitcoin? VMC. That is nice.

Question Regarding Bitfunder Shares and Future Transfer.
My shares/assets are listed under a CoinBase public address that I guess is difficult to sign. Will this be a problem? Do I need to switch to a different public address?
