Just a poll...
The interest rates are going to decrease substantially on August 1st.

Hopefully this will give pirate a better idea of what will happen.

Please share your reasoning for the choice you are making as well.

I withdrew all funds tonight, because I don't want anyone absconding with my hard-earned principal.

I just added a bit more. It may be the last month at 6.9% weekly with profits reinvested Smiley
And then I will switch to withdrawing interest weekly.
I will open a savings account and maintain my current passthroughs.

I don't have a dog in this fight ... but this post of Vandroiy's was worth reading :

Centralized depositing is probably the worst thing we could do as a community, if I remember correctly from a discussion last night on #bitcoin-otc, 1% of the entire bitcoin economy has cash in passthroughs, not even direct trust accounts. BS&T is turning into the DeepBit of the bitcoin banking world, we need to change or else a pirate default could spell the end to bitcoin as we know it.

When the ponzi collapses, I won't feel bad for you at all. If you want to waste your money, fine, just don't invest more than you can lose and still be happy -- because you WILL lose.

I am at the point now what ever I put into it has cost me nothing so worst case my losses are covered. Best case I make money. Up to a point

BUT I do agree with Maged any investment/Lending money to friends etc. Don't invest more than you can afford to loose. But not that I am saying that will happen. It might it might not

So I guess that means you're willing to call him a liar and a scammer to his face? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=91252.msg1004534#msg1004534

one point tho from that thread, you are inclining that he said he is at risk when btc value raises; in reality pirate said he is exposed to risk during rapid price increases - and even that probably conditioned with short periods of time when he is on USD side and doesn't apply to being always at risk during fast price increases (and we haven't seen those increases often recently in several month)

You're not making any sense.

Exchange rate is up ~30% in the last 30 days or so, it shot up almost 20% in a mater of 4 days, how is this not the risk event he says he is sacrificing his profits for when hedging by using other people's money instead of his own?

Where do you live?

I'm willing to contribute towards your travel costs as I'm sure others would if it would help you to shut the fuck up.
