Out of curiosity, would you mind showing the wallet that the 818 BTC are kept in.
I find it fascinating that a newbie could raise that much funds. So I just want to satisfy my own curiosity.
BTW- Valiant effort! I wish I had that kind of funds to play with!

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Sign a message from the address that holds those coins. Or at least show us the address.
Doubt that you control an address with said coins though...

Ya that kind of verification would have helped his cause. If he could at least prove that he was in control of a wallet with that much coin, that would at least lend him a little tiny bit of credibility. But a Newbie on this board, saying that they control that much coin is very unlikely and lends NO credibility to his campaign without proof! |

I have asked participants if this is okay and one of them said it is not, so out of respect for them I will not reveal publicly the addresses that were used to hold the coins. However, if anyone who participated wants to reveal their own deposit address it is entirely up to them.
Sorry this didn't work out, and I understand the lack of trust in a "newbie" bitcointalk account. However: Let me assure you I've been in and around the bitcoin scene longer than anyone who has posted on this thread.
I will not lock this thread but I will probably not check it often.
Good luck to everyone on all your other endeavors!

Also, a lesson to be learnèd: The age of the account is not proportionate to the money in the bank. |

Also, a lesson to be learnèd: The age of the account is not proportionate to the money in the bank. Right but with zero credibility, and with no proof of funds, and really no proof of anything, and no escrow. There has to be some kind of safety net for potential investors. As for showing proof that you control a wallet? That does not expose any of your investors in any way. I don't see how it's possible for them to be exposed in any way. That's sort of the beauty of cryptocurrency, right! Whenever someone says "send me cash" or "send me bitcoin" or whatever, I want some assurance that my investment is safe. Just me maybe, but I don't just hand money to strangers and hope everything works out. And I have been involved in bitcoin since 2011, so I know what you mean regarding "The age of the account is not proportionate to the money in the bank.". But I have several bitcoin related websites that have age and name verification, I have made videos on youtube promoting bitcoin, and I have verifiable transactions that I have made with bitcoin all of which is as easy as posting a link. But you have supplied literally nothing. |

In the future if I choose to set off on another venture such as this I'll take all of these things into account. |

That form generates a unique address for every submission. As for the feedback, after doing a trade on localbitcoins I asked him if he could leave me feedback on this forum because I'm a new user, and he said "of course!". I have answers for all of your questions so please stop wasting my time and yours. |

To be honest, I really doubt that you have received 718 (+100 of your own) btc from others with a newbie account and zero info on your identity. Anyway, looks like no one has complained about his/her lost (maybe because no one has invested at all).  |

As I stated, all coins were refunded within 24 hours of us losing the auction.
