The free market in action.
Profit motive combined with efficiency=customer service.

Excellent job whoever you are. I hope you find continued success.

It's despicable that a drug trade is more honorable than a currency exchange.

I wouldn't trust anything stated. It is rumored that silk road 2.0 hijacked the coins themselves and are "paying it back" to gain trust and validation. Don't be gullible you should take everything you hear with a grain of salt, heck even this.

If I understand correctly, after the hack they said they would no longer hold user coins themselves in escrow. Did that change?

Ending the war on drugs, with compassion!

Does it really matter now? As long as they repaid back users money... And the compensation is legit seen some posts on reddit confirming that they have gotten their coins.

Someone told me criminals honor trust more than normal businesses.

Lol, and mtgox havent returned anything regardless of the lost wallet they found with 200k bitcoins, its a shame

[alani123]

You should keep note that it's a different case. I'm pretty sure people didn't use silkroad as a wallet service to store their coins. Dark web sites are not known for their stability, it would be unwise to hold large amounts of coins in there. If the "stolen" coins were fewer than the ones in MtGox it sounds perfectly logical to me that they were able to refound part of the losses.

Haha you know something is wrong with blackmarket does better than mtgox.

Society seems wrong by hating/degrading them.

The thing is it's possible for someone like Karpeles to pull something like "forgetting" all the private keys, claim bankruptcy, and then walk away scot free legally. But in this case their whole business rests on trust and I guess if they want to be successful they have to prove that trust somehow.

In an unregulated market trust is king.

Sadly in regulated market, it isn't by the looks of it

[Glizlack]

Just because he is shady? Not to nitpick but I really do think they are doing a service. I think we can all agree the war on drugs is a failure and is an excuse for governments all over the world to take some of our freedom. Just because I don't agree with something doesn't mean I think the person doing it is bad. And in this case I suppose i am proved correct as silkroad has paid back most of the funds and anticipate fully paying off in another month or so.
