Topic: Avalon 85Gh/s ASIC - Auction, ENDS IN 30 minutes! (Read 2183 times)

I will send the bitcoin this evening. Please use the same payout address as before.

1% @ 1

For the record: A previous share owner from the first auction opted to sell their shares instead, so the paying winners of this auction had transferred shares from another owner instead of new shares given to them. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=231974.0;topicseen

This means that I am still 100% owner of the second rig. Thanks everyone for participating and I'm glad to have been able to be of service to the existing shareholders.

24 minutes left!

This auction ends in

Timer removed. End time: 2013-06-11+5:30:00

Next available lowest bid: 46% @ 0.9 BTC

EDIT: Very sorry but can I retract my bid... I just checked my balance and I am a bit short.

Escrow is essential for real-time purchases, especially bets where either party can back out easily on their promises. Future purchases like pre-orders make escrow a bit difficult. I suppose rather than escrow, collateral of some sort could be provided in that case, but I haven't done much thought on that. Any suggestions?

I could, anyone could, the question would be why would I. Have I ever run with anyone's money despite handling thousands of bitcoins for other parties, both individuals and companies? I've never scammed a single person and I've gone above and beyond when it came to paying off loans or debts of other natures. I have one of the strongest characters in this community, despite being a bit manic and having misdirected my energy at times. Sure, I've made bad decisions and learned just how far off the norm I was for them, but what you seem to be attacking is the mistake itself (dead horse anyone?) instead of my ability and willingness to learn from my mistakes and make up for them (which I have found sets me apart from many "men" in this world who are attracted to bankruptcy, excuses, hiding behind LLCs, and running away from their problems with no concern for the damage they've done). The comical irony is an anonymous account on a forum arguing with me, a long-time self-doxxer and transparency nut, for not being honest and avoiding accountability. Really?

I've already stated multiple times on this forum and elsewhere that the previous prank of mine was completely out of line and that I had learned a valuable lesson when it came to screwing around with people on the topic of finances (read: don't do it). If I did that again, I'd be a liar. I'm not a liar, so I wouldn't be doing that again.

Everyone knows I'm not only paying my debts, but that I have always paid my debts (despite my own circumstances, and most of the time being a direct cause of poor financial circumstances. What good is having what you want when your debt to someone else causes them to be in need?). Did you know that when Roger Ver invested in DialCoin, and Charles Lee (Coblee) invested in BitcoinMall, both purchasing shares in the companies I was running, and things didn't go well (DialCoin closed due to fraud coming from the UK, and BitcoinMall never tookoff) and the companies closed, I hounded both of them to let me buy the stocks back because I told them I didn't think it was right that they should suffer for the company's mistakes? I felt *bad* that they had put money into an idea, team, management, opportunity that didn't return a profit for them and wanted to recoup their losses 100%. I'm *still* waiting on Roger Ver to tell me how I can pay him back. I'm paying Charles Lee right now actually. This doesn't even include the business loans for prototypes of Ellet that I made that I *personally* paid back when the company didn't take off, or DialCoin's liquidity loans that I *personally* am paying back despite the *company* being defrauded. Your ignorance of this is not your fault, it's just not something I have never made public previously.

The picture you're trying to paint is convenient since I'm still paying people for the bet, but it's far from accurate. It's the equivalent of me saying that you don't pay your bills because you haven't this month's electric bill yet. It would make more sense if you had actually agreed to pay by a certain time and didn't. I've agreed to pay everyone by timelines they stipulated, and have paid more than half now. This is well known and your argument has been invalidated numerous times.

In your broad disingenuous generalizations and loaded statements, you continue to refer to me as "thinking I am smarter than [you]". It's simply not the case, although with each statement of yours I read, I do feel I am much more honest than you. Afterall, anyone can leave after making a mistake. I'm still here Rampion, still doing business, still helping, still making up for things. It's easy to think someone has integrity when they are anonymous (like yourself) and keep their vast and various mistakes a secret from the world. I make mine public, learn from them, and work on myself for the benefit of myself and everyone that depends on me. That to me is worth much more than any opinion on this forum.

That said, despite your intentions (which may be of malice as you certainly do sound like a troll most of the time), your posts help me to take a better look at myself and how I present myself. Through this process of painful learning, I am able to do things more transparently and better prepared the next time. Thank you for helping me become a better person, it is something I strive to do for others here and judging by the color of my ignore link, have (apparently) succeeded in doing for over 2 years. Keep vigilant, but always with an open mind.

2% @ 1.25 BTC

You'd need to bid 1 @ 0.9 to place a bid at this point.

It was originally expected in May (as Yifu had advertised), but he's now telling me to expect it inside of this month. The only reason I'm selling these profit shares is because I want some liquidity *now*. If I had the rig at the moment, I'd just mine coins myself and keep 100% of them.

1 share at 0.15 BTC*
*When are you expecting it and can I pay then to make sure I am getting something or nor?

My guess is because there is less than 3 hours left. I expect to see a bit more gun jumping, considering the last auction I had (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-avalon-85ghs-asic-auction-ends-within-24-hours-165105) ended at 1.25~1.5 BTC per 1%, then several other sales were made up to 2 BTC per 1% after that.

 

why jump the gun and make such an unnecessarily high bid

50 @ .8 give it to me

.3 BTC at this point would probably only get you a single share.

Next available bid: 50% @ 0.3 BTC

ill go with those .3 btc!
i dont really get this but i want to buy 0.3 btc of what u are sellin

Nah, your values are wrong, but you are right that I had made a mistake-- I copy/pasted to save formatting and forgot to update one of the names!

It's "The 4ner" @ 30% and norman @ 20%

Sorry, but reviewing the bid history, I think it should be:


But, please correct me if I'm wrong.

20 @ .4

22 hours left people. If it ended right now, someone could get half of a 101 BTC Avalon for 13 BTC. 

They are the same order. (I shared the private order reciept with tye moderator Tysat, he can confirm there are 2 Avalons on the order)
