Wendon Group, et al.

At http://pastebin.com/Ya6iN8RT, you will not find a Wendon Group, but you will find a Wengon Group eight times. A purposeful misspelling?

During the course of this thread, it will become clear that Tihan Seale and Wendon Group are one and the same from the get-go. I only wish that Matthew N. Wright would jump in at some point and provide us with a graph showing all the connections, as he once famously done prior with some other entity.

Note: the pastebin is updated with the second post's information and is now complete. Thanks Herodes!

This could be the most informative and interesting post since the Bitcoinica fiasco. How did we get all this emails?

Genjix posted this for a couple of minutes at this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=93109.0 but got deleted after a few minutes. It's all reproduced in that pastebin link.

Forget the funny aspects : how is this impacting Intersango is the bigger question !

The short answer is that the Wendon/Wengon Group acquired 250 shares of Intersango in exchange for giving Donald, Amir and Patrick a combined interest of 25% in Bitcoinica LP.  This means that they have a legal duty to Wendon/Wengon as shareholders of Intersango which exists separately and in addition to their duty towards Wendon/Wengon as the limited partner of the Bitcoinica Limited Partnership.

I posted this yesterday in another thread.  It might not be connected at all but the company was registered by the same accountant who set up Core Credit and Bitcoinica Consultancy.

May or may not be relevant, but here is a Barbados government site with a listing for "WENDON GROUP INCORPORATED": http://www.caipo.gov.bb/site/index.php?option=com_easytable&view=easytablerecord&id=3%3Anew-test&rid=73234&Itemid=61 (note, site is rather slow). It says the corporation was formed in 2005, but there are very few other details.

Honestly, even if someone paid for the full records it's extremely likely that you'd find more entities or accountants/lawyers listed in the paperwork.

Would it surprise anybody if the relative Whois info of SimpleCoin connects to Wendon Group?

Hi Phin

It's "Wendon Group" with a "d".

You can continue this if it entertains you, but it will all be a matter of public record upon court action against the Consultancy. The investment fund has nothing to hide. Nor do I.

Details please?

Have you filed a complaint? Are you in the process of doing so? To which jurisdiction? What is the cause of action?

I'm flattered that you've dedicated 25% of your post count to replies toward me.

To be fair, allow me to exercise some more entertainment.

I have enjoyed our journey together and look forward to exciting times ahead.

This thread wouldn't even be in existence if it weren't for those in the know not answering "who is Wendon", a question asked many times on this forum.

But now that the thread is started, and I'm committed to connecting the dots to show others where it leads and, moreover, who's who, I won't stop till I'm finished or I need, once again, to offer up an apology.

Quite frankly, I'm not proud of my track record to date, but c'est la vie.

Since there's nothing to hide, I guess that fact alone will keep busy for a spell.

One more thing. Why is the following the latest update on bitcoinica.com? Isn't anybody at the helm at least concerned about their client base not knowing the latest? Or do they just take for granted that their clients know to come to this forum to seek the latest? I personally know of one person who wants to know what the fuck is going on since the last update.

2012-06-17 Claims Payments Specifics

Be sure to fillout the payment instructions section of the claim.
Failure to do so will significantly delay claims.

And one more thing. Are you speaking of the Bitcoin Consultancy or the Bitcoinica Consultancy in your 4th post? Those playing at home may want to keep their score cards up-to-date.

~Bruno~

PS: I'm committed to prove that Wendon Group and Tihan Seale are one and the same.

Let's assume for a moment that you're right Phin.  How would that in any way affect the current situation regarding Bitcoinica and its users?  If Tihan is indeed one of the limited partners, how does establishing that in any way bring Bitcoinica users closer to receiving refunds?

That is a very valid question, repentance. Your first question I could have answered with a single word--closure. Your second question will require of me to reach for a more profound answer.

If anything that I'm able to bring to the table from Google-fuing helps with the litigation process, that's a plus for starters. The other side of the coin is that I believe there's other entities that deal with/in Bitcoin that are directly related to this/these investing groups. Not only have we witnessed an MO repeated in regards to Bitcoinica, but the same players have operated in like fashion previously with other entities, long before Bitcoin ever came into existence, some of which are still being played out to this day.

Moreover, there's entities up and running that deal with Bitcoin linked to said players, and people on this forum have bitcoins invested/stored at/with them.

Also, having whoever is at the helm of Bitcoinica updating the website would be a keen gesture for those who don't visit this forum but have a right to know of the latest hack.

That said, I respect your post, questions and you, repentance.
