[elasticband]

any thoughts on the community bidding in the auction.

20 people at 10k each can make up the entry deposit.

they're for sale now ?

[GreekBitcoin]

Yeah i was thinking if something like this is possible

[elasticband]

No the auction is next month?

A 200k deposit(refundable) is needed to enter.

I figured we would need 20 people to front 10k each, this would need to be moved and held in a escrow

We would then need to find someone to front the full 200k and offer them a free % for their time and efforts.


I'm down for 10k

[tymm0]

if i had 10k I'd throw it in in a heartbeat.

[elasticband]

Not sure how this would entirely work but I doubt the FBI would let Escrow hold funds for them.

at no point do I say the FBI's 200k would be held in escrow

That's a good and interesting idea but, are we surely that 200.000$ can suffice?

200k is the deposit needed to enter the auction.

Winning bid would need to be transferred the day after auction winners are announced. It would be a lot of work.


we could try bid on 1 A group at 3000BTC or we could try bidding on the B group at around 2500btc

You'd have an easier time getting 200 people at $1,000 I think.

They're making the entry point only accessible to those who want it most...  the already stinkin' rich...

If the forum would push this thread, I think a lot of people would sign up.

Look at the lending forums, people will invest in anything that offers a decent return.

I'd be willing to go in for $1K, I'm sure many others would be more receptive to this also but selling the idea's  a different story...

Best of luck 

[spazzdla]

I can get 1K, but I'd have to meet/talk to the person running it.  People are not to be trusted.

Wow this is really fascinating. Let's get this together and make it happen!

Who knows how much the price will rise at an auction, I don't think many people that go bidding really know a good value at which they need to stop..

You also have the issue of the possibility of getting scammed by whoever is collecting the funds to submit a bid

[elasticband]

nope, the entry person would need to front 200k while 200k raised + a fee were held in escrow until competition.

this ensures the entry cannot run off with other peoples 200k and it ensures there is 200k waiting I  escrow.

[GIANNAT]

200k$ definitely won't be the final price

[Bobsurplus]

200k$ definitely won't be the final price

Nope, more like 1.4M

so 20 People means 70K cash each..


Fuck it, I'm in!

[elasticband]

200k$ definitely won't be the final price

who said we want to win 

[DubFX]

We would need someone really trusted with all of his doxx info, it's BIG sum of money.
