So basically he's selling a site which is nothing but problems, that is being attacked, and that has resulted in his own safety being put into question - as well as his family?

If he had an offer for 100k he should have taken it, if it was a real offer at all who knows. Someone above said the source is posted on Github, which means anyone could download and launch a similar service under a different name if they knew what they were doing.

Yea the game is different. But with bitcoin fads are here one day gone the next. Its only a matter of time before this site is old news and something new comes out that everyone runs to. Me personally I lost on Moneypots. Not a lot around .2 BTC, but still it didnt seem like anything more than a pick a number hope it hits that number game.

Not that I could afford to buy it, but that sounds like not a great thing to invest in. I mean basically it's buy my site, comes with attackers, hackers trying to ddos, people trying to harm me, thats crazy.

Just my thoughts on it... but who knows Im sure someone will buy it.

In a nutshell. Buyer beware. On the flip side, it's had great growth, it's got a great user base, and it's made in one month more than the opening bid.

To me he seems very upfront about his website and who he is but then theres still a lot of questions that still needs to be answered

If you put them in question format, I would be able to answer them for you.

iv been speaking to Eric for about a week about either buying equity or possibly buying the site. When we first spoke he evaluated the company at an outrageous 250k, then a few days later he told me about a company offering him 100k cash and a gaming liscense and what not, but he told me it would mean he would still have to work for the company for salary but he would have to give ownership of moneypot to them. Now he is taking bids of 20 bitcoins for a possibility of selling money pot for just 20 bitcoins. Im a potential buyer but theres these inconsistencies that make weary of bidding. Why would any one turn down 100k, and salary??

Circumstances change. You came to me, asking about buying the site. I said 250k, an amount I'd still accept. You countered with something less than the value of the used domain (before it even was used for anything), and unsurprisingly we did not reach an agreement.

A company with an existing gambling license said they would be prepared to pay in the order of 100k for a large percent of the equity, and I'd run it as a subsidiary of their (So their license can be used for it). The money would not go to me personally, but rather to the company. Even now, those are terms I would not be prepared to accept, as I'd be selling all my upsides while having to manage the whole thing.

Im not saying Eric is scamming, im actually giving him the benefit of a doubt, its the reason i registered for this site and posted. And the reason im still even interested in the site. I just need things cleared up before any actual funds are given to anyone. I think these are all valid topics and deserve the attention to be answered individually before anyone was to actually bid on a website with so much risk involved.

Eric isn't scamming. Eric isn't scamming. Eric isn't scamming. What do you guys not get? Unless you have proof please stop posting, as it's clogging up the thread with garbage.

Act mature and call out on someone if you have something to prove that Eric is 100% a scammer.

If you ask him, he will say it's been alot of work to run it just by himself, and it's become more than he wanted it to be. He just wants to let it go and start on something new. He did in fact get lucky winning all those coins in one week, he isn't guaranteed profit.

Was moneypot nice? I thought it was a shitty ass game.

I'm not sure what game you're confusing it with, but moneypot is not an ass game, it's a betting game where you try to predict the crash point, and cash out just ahead of it.

If it's making 30 BTC a week why is he selling though? It's been asked a number of times by various members here but has never been addressed.

Someone has been harassing him in various ways: filing abuse reports to his host, DDoS'ing him, threatening him and his family, etc.

He thought it would inspire confidence in players if he was open about his identity, but some asshat has taken advantage of his good nature.

This is why we can't have nice things.

It's a valid question I think.

His family is being threatened and put in danger apparently. He regrets making his identity well known in the beginning to establish a sense of trust.

If I had the funds I would be bidding the 20 BTC minimum all day here but stipulations of another trusted member of the forum handling deposits/withdrawals if I would not be allowed to.
