Jeez.

Never knew about that.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I am just away to offload all my bitcoins. I have penny's to gain by keeping them if it is not true, and thousands to lose if it is true.

Bitpay CEO has 'denied' these reports, apparently.  Shocked

I think the guy @petertwynn is panicking about his transaction and just posting frantically without verifying the facts.  Although, considering he posted a bearish article just today, this could also be a ridiculous attempt to cause panic.  If so, I really hope Bitpay fucks him up.

I really hope you're fucking joking.

No.

I made a $26 profit!

I am happy!

If the rumours are false then i am sure that Bitcoin will still be here tomorrow, $30 +/- what it is today. What is the problem?

If the rumour was true, Bitpay would not have made an announcement saying that it was false.  A company making such a massive false statement could be held liable for many damages.

I claim your exchange is about to be hacked... I could've just made that up, who knows, but you better buy back those BTC's so you can withdraw your balance before it is stolen. Pennies to lose if I just made that up, all of your BTC to lose if I'm right.

Perhaps.

Didn't stop all the false reassurances right through the financial crisis though did it.

More likely than not, these rumours are false, in which case I would have jumped out the pool before I needed to....

....but am I bovvered?

I am no poorer or richer than I was a couple of hours ago.

I'd chuckle if Peter were sued by Bitpay over this.  Might give people a moment of pause before posting negative rumors.
