James,
When these get setup will those of us who are newly setup get paid immediately or do we have to wait for next Monday?
thanks.
Hi Naelr, When your account is first created, I setup all of the back payments as pending to give you time to login and review the information. Payments then go out the following Monday. Best, James

To all Gigaminers:
I have received an updated list of verified claims and have setup accounts for those Gigaminers. I will be reviewing a few more accounts with Quentin sometime tomorrow and should be setting up some more accounts on the VPS site at that time.
I would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to claim. I appreciate you working with me so we can move forward in confidence.
Best, James

You are welcome burger. As per my reply yesterday, I have spoken with Quentin today and have added more verified claims to the VPS website. There have been a significant amount of claims this round and this pleases me quite a bit. I am glad there are those who instead of screaming and shouting can follow simple directions to make their claim. I hope that this continues. The terms of service for electronic signatures from the website is now under review and should be on my desk tomorrow. I apologize for the delay, but Quentin had been out sick. Once the TOS is live on the site along with the upgrade process, I will have an announcement regarding the Teramining upgrade. Best, James

Is there any hope for Digital (electronic) Signature claim or this is just a typo ?!

Hi gigavps, I'm also interested on knowing what you mean about "The terms of service for electronic signatures from the website". By the way, I've just contacted a public notary and I'm doing my best to get fit in your conditions. But, please, just in case this "electronic signatures" stuff is about a new claim process using our goverment official certificates, explain this carefully. Thanks.

If you remember how many assets you had? And have the addressbook with the adress (among the other not named) in then you can find out.

I'd much rather see my money to go the Bitcoin foundation.
If some people are unwilling to release their personal details and would rather sign a message with the associated btc address invalidating their claim, I think that those coins can be donated to the Bitcoin Foundation. This is not an unreasonable request and I will speak with counsel to see if something like this can work. Giga, is there any conclusion on this topic? Just to sum up: You came with the stupid idea of notarized affidavit which is more expensive to get for me than what I have in GIGA. I wrote an email to you and your lawyer explaining the situation and asking whether there is another option for small bond holders or whether you are going to pay the costs of changed agreement. Then after being multiple times reminded I received an email 1 month later only repeating the claim process. This is not the way you should treat us. So I'm starting to consider to donate my bonds or their value to Bitcoin Foundation if you offer this option.

I don't think you can validate that those coins belong to you to offer to the Bitcoin Foundation unless you send in the required documentation. On to other business.... James, I sent in my information to Q and I know it got there no later then Wed last week. Certified mail stub should be here today. I know you said he was sick but you also said you have more to add to the website and will be sending out the info yesterday. Will I receive email saying here is your login info to VBS or something saying I didn't meet the requirements and what you still need? Thanks Naelr

Hi Naelr, I am still waiting to hear about those who mailed their information directly to the office. Quentin works from multiple locations and is not always in Miami so he relies on office staff to get him the mailed documentation. As soon as you are added to the list of verified claims, I'll set you up on the VPS site and that process will email you to complete your registration. Best, James

Giga, is there any conclusion on this topic? No. I have not inquired about it as it has been more important to get verified claims paid and to get ready for the arrival of the BFL equipment. You came with the stupid idea of notarized affidavit which is more expensive to get for me than what I have in GIGA.
I did not come up with anything, I've been advised by competent representation that this is the proper way to handle the situation. As for the expense of the process, most of this stuff is free in the US. Also, over 50% of all claims have come from outside the US thus far so somehow people from Australia, Canada, Finland, Germany and elsewhere have been able to work through what is needed and have provided it. I wrote an email to you and your lawyer explaining the situation and asking whether there is another option for small bond holders or whether you are going to pay the costs of changed agreement. Then after being multiple times reminded I received an email 1 month later only repeating the claim process. This is not the way you should treat us.
As I have said, things have not gone as well as I would have liked. Quentin has had numerous email issues and I apologize if you feel you have been treated unjustly. I am doing my best but unfortunately I yet to obtain a reality distortion field like Steve Jobs had. So I'm starting to consider to donate my bonds or their value to Bitcoin Foundation if you offer this option.
This option is not on the table at this time as the claims process is nowhere near over. If we ever get to a place where most claims have been paid, we can revisit the issue. Best, James

Am I the only one that thinks these seem really fishy? Quentin has had numerous email issues
Quentin works from multiple locations and is not always in Miami so he relies on office staff to get him the mailed documentation.
I apologize for the delay, but Quentin had been out sick.
I apologize for Quentin not responding. There were technical errors on his end where email when to spam unintentionally.
I have spoken with Quentin today. He has been out sick for the last two week
As for Quentin, he has other clients and has, from what I was briefly told, been busy filling in for other attorneys in the office while they were away.
It seems Quentin was having some issues with emails going directly to his spam folder. He has since turned off the spam filter and replies to email once per week.
Quentin is off the next couple of days taking care of family matters.
The holiday season is slowing things down for Quentin but I will ask him again.

I've been to see a notario here in Spain today & just as I expected the whole thing is going to cost over €100, (not including my time & travel costs) in fact I had to pay €107 = over $145 of money just wasted as gigavps knows my claim was correct & valid but still insisted on this, it's now being sent to Barcelona for the apostates of the docs in English & Spanish plus of my passport which is going to take a week to do, anyway as soon as I receive it back I shall email it to both you & your lawyer where I expect it to be processed fast & efficiently so that I can take the paid teramining upgrade if that still seems to be worthwhile - I never had any answer from your lawyer, just you eventually telling me that I would have to get this done, so over one month was wasted.

Can you explain me why you would actually pay (paid upgrade) to do further business with a person that acts like that and showed he doesnt care for you?
