Aloha! My name is Mark Thacker and I'm building a bitcoin company out here in Hawaii. We're behind Hawai'is first bitcoin ATM and we're working on something we're calling the ASK Project. Right now it's a labor of love, but a bit more info can be found on our still-in-beta website, www.pacificblockchain.com. Currently I work in sales in the vacation ownership industry, but my real passion is Bitcoin and, hopefully soon, I'll be working on PBC full time. Owing partly to the fact that my co-founder, Edward Hickman, is a fairly active voice in the community (and has recently exposed a major theft of NXT http://cointelegraph.com/news/112643/the-mystery-of-the-missing-1000000-nxt) I figured it was time to step out of the shadows and introduce myself to the community. If this is the appropriate place for an AMA (I'm not sure of the rules here), feel free to ask away. I'll do my best to keep an eye on this thread and answer any questions as best I can. If you want to reach out to me directly, the best places to contact me are on twitter @PBC_Mark, or on LinkedIn, www.linkedin.com/pub/mark-thacker/95/140/808/Thanks for stopping by Mark

Mark, Edward DeLeon Hickman has written several articles featuring your company name 'Pacific Blockchain' (details above) regarding jl777. 1) Do you know the identity of jl777?
2) Is there any relationship between your company member, Edward Hickman, and jl777?
3) Does Edward Hickman know the identity of jl777?
4) Does your company actively promote jl777's investment products?the source thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=808029.0;all

keep in mind Mr. Thacker, if you DO KNOW this information and you are withholding it, there are serious consequences, not only to the image of your company Pacific Blockchain, but to you personally as the NXT project is initiating death threats and the posting of people's home addresses.

To be clear about jl777: I do not know his identity, Ed does not know his identity although they may be collaborating on a project, and I have had no contact with JL777 to date, although i admire his work and am of the personal opinion, based on the best evidence that i have, that he is an honest developer. I do not personally trust your assessment to the contrary based on the simple fact that you have not yet responded to the allegations against you. Until you do so, I will ignore you on suspicion of malignant trolling. Please clear your name so we can talk. For those unfamiliar with bluemeanie, he is widely and substantively alleged to be the thief of 1,000,000 NXT ( http://nxtreporting.com/?tr=9677367184378728685). He has taken to spamming and stalking me and my friend Ed (author of a popular article detailing the allegations, http://cointelegraph.com/news/112643/the-mystery-of-the-missing-1000000-nxt) on twitter and this forum. Personally I find this to be a beautiful illustration of the blockchain's potential for investigative journalism, although it is a little disheartening to be stalked by an internet troll before the ASK Project (slated to be our company's first product) even hits public beta. Still, its kinda fun imagining bluemeanie, played by Steve Buschemi, connecting a wall of forum printouts together with bits of string and thumbtacks. PBC does not recommend investments. Its operating partners reserve the right of recommendation according to our individual discretion. Would I personally recommend a jl777hodl asset? Yes. Supernet sounds like a great idea. Could I be wrong? Yes. If your position is correct, I would be wrong to be bullish on supernet, nxt, and cryptocurrency in general. In this day and age people should not arbitrarily place trust in 3rd parties--the sad truth is that bitcoin is a juicy target for scams (see above). Even for my "best pick" reccomendation, the best thing I can say about them is "i'm 80% sure it's not a ponzi" (shameless referral plug: https://bitcoin-trader.biz/?ref=mthacker). That should answer your questions.

To Mark Thacker, interesting how this thread became a thread about me when I brought up jl777. He refers to my questions as 'spam'. Mark, Edward DeLeon Hickman has written several articles featuring your company name 'Pacific Blockchain' (details above). 1) Do you know the identity of jl777? 2) Is there any relationship between your company member, Edward Hickman, and jl777? 3) Does Edward Hickman know the identity of jl777? 4) Does your company actively promote jl777's investment products?
for the record: 1. no 2. they kissed at a party once 3. no 4. pacific blockchain does not at this time take positions on investment products 5. if you keep spamming me i will put you on ignore I wash my hands of bluemeanie. as far as I can tell he is a thief, cyberstalker, and troll. I respond in more detail in my AMA thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=816841Aloha

Nope, I've never met Grace. She wasn't there the day the show used my house.

Thanks.. A decent read. Any updates about this? I have nothing to add to that discussion at this time. I have no direct connection to Supernet News Network, I spend my time getting Pacific Blockchain ready for launch. Manoa is the place in Hawaii where we are from. We have no connection to Venezuela.

Seems to scare you enough, since you keep avoiding the answer to one simple question that has been put forth by almost every user posting on your threads: When will you return the stolen funds, joshua zeidner/bluemeanie1/moneroman88?

See what i mean everyone? a know scammer and thief completely evades the question. Let me remind the question to you, Joshua Zeidner/bluemeanie1/moneroman88: When will you return the stolen funds?
Go on, it's only a question. Answer it, instead of avoiding the truth
