Topic: All things considered Brock Pierce, et al.! [w/POLL] - page 5. (Read 52309 times)
As IF we need more firepower for media. First its 'drugs and hitmen for hire' now it appears to be 'terrorist funding and money laundering' and with this fucking sicko on board it will be 'fueling child rape' next.
The more I read, the more creepy this whole thing gets...the Foundation needs to make a public statement as to why they are ok with having him on the board (if they haven't already done so)..
We, TBF board members, were not aware of Brock Pierce's past, albeit we find it a non-issue.
That said, we duly hope that Brock Pierce will bring more welcoming funding to TBF like he did with KnC's $100K USD one day prior to the election.
Now, if you'll excuse us, we have yet another behind the door board meeting to attend to, then write-off some requisites to have some members paid via BTC, of which all can clearly see via the Brock-Chain, of which, BTW, was name changed to such via 51% approval, again behind closed doors.

I'm not versed with all that tech stuff, but I believe I read that the minors can be overcocked if one adjusts the temp of the hot tub. Also, be careful with the muffets and make sure you have a large fan base with plenty of chips and wafers on hand encase something should overload and explode.

Well, ain't that special! Goes hand-and-hand with what I penned here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6770265, of which includes the following image:
That's Michael Terpin of SocialRadius and BitAngles who has one of his offices walking distance from GoCoin and CoinMKT, the latter an unregulated US exchange probably built with only HTML and CSS.
Still digging but this is my most promising candidate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anand_Jon

Are you trying to save the Bitcoin Foundation with this witch hunt or put the final nail in its coffin?
Witch hunt? Please look at the irrefutable evidence, your reminding me of the Jimmy saville defeneders claiming it all slander and bs when the evidence is clear.
It's a community service when you release information once informing everyone so they can make an informed decision. It's a witch hunt when every other thread is about it and you dedicate a week of your life to the research. I think this Brock Pierce guy should hang from the nearest tree but how many threads do we need on the subject?
What's the end goal here? Is his removal from the foundation and it's salvation the goal or is this an attempt to kill the foundation entirely?
For me the goal is not to just remove Brock Pierce from the foundation to save face for bitoin, that would be selfish to just look out for financial interests. I will not only attempt to remove him from any association with crypto but I will also put in as much work as I can to bring down him and his pedophile ring. You have to take a step back look at this situation and realize innocent children are being used and abused by these people and to me that is a far more pressing concern then saving face for bitcoin. I have countless times seen people disregard irrefutable evidence of mass pedophile rings ex. Jimmy Saville so these days I have to take it in my own hands to get anything done. I promise you all, you will soon see these people punished for their crimes.
I think your end goal may be slightly beyond the scope of this forum but good luck with your effort.

Will the bitcoin foundation conference starting today be brodcasted?
Wow. Just wow
"While each of these members expressed their ongoing support for bitcoin, it appears that the foundation’s association with unsavory characters – either in actuality or simply in appearance – was too much. Janssens writes:
If you commit to remove Brock Pierce from the board, I pledge to join as Platinum member and pay the $100k USD fee, within the next 24 hours. I also urge you to update the bylaws to prevent people from joining if they are involved in ongoing lawsuits (of the nasty kind), or have ever been convicted for anything nasty. Or if their image is potentially damaging for the foundation.
It’s this comment about image that gets to the heart of the issue. While Pierce has not been convicted of any crimes, the Bitcoin Foundation can’t afford even the hint of impropriety within its leadership."

It's been over 4 days, is Brock Pierce gone yet?
How soon will he be removed?

Some Bitcoin Foundation members say they weren't aware of Pierce's past until after the election, when others circulated media accounts concerning the allegations.
Let me guess: Those people had me on ignore and missed my continuous updates starting over a week prior the election.
My guess is that the same people are using CoinMKT as an exchange for the sole reason that it's located in the US thus it has to be on the up-and-up.
Hell, some clown gave Travis Skewers a $200,000 VC to build his Werkadoo-a-doodle-doo, the next eHarmony, but only better. All he had to do was build what he hyped, then he and his venture capitalist would ROI like there's no tomorrow. But how? Well, Travis ain't no dummy, and he knew exactly where to hunt down resources to build the bestest eHarmony site known to mankind. I suggest getting some popcorn to enjoy the read: http://themeforest.net/forums/messages/recent_for_user/tskweres.
No wonder one keeps reading comments about CoinMKT like the following:
Quote
One of the most terrible user interfaces/trading engines today. Worse than Cryptsy and MtGox combined. If you make one simple mistake in a trade entry the engine will eat your entire balance and you have to e-mail their support in hopes that you can get your coins back. Their security is terrible (i.e. if you forget your password it is sent to you in plaintext and they do not have MFA)
Can you even imagine what CoinMKT would be like if Brock Pierce wasn't around to advise them? And, to think Travis Skewers had the audacity to dis Mt Gox all the while he was living up to his namesake.
URGENT UPDATE: It looks like I was gravely mistaken about Travis, for I've hunted down the proof that he does indeed have the skill sets to run a Bitcoin Stock Exchange. See if you can spot it sans any clues: http://www.docstoc.com/docs/127401502/SAMPLE-ACTING-RESUMEdoc
And, to think that I thought it was only because Brock Pierce thought that he looked good in a hot tub.
JUST FOR LAUGHS!!!

What resulted was a ton of folks in pictures with our panda, SXSW officials asking us to leave for getting so much awesome attention, news 8 Austin giving us an interview, and the panda making the front page of the business section of the Houston Chronicle! Not bad for a startup with a budget trying to make a splash at one of the biggest tech conferences on the planet. We’re just happy that people are starting to hear the werd about Werkadoo, and catching on to our philosophy of being ‘The eHarmony of Business’.
