Topic: AVAST! Bitcoin Penny® Spanish Treasures Collection now be here! (Read 3144 times)

Just found out his business address is Greenville, which was heavily flooded...
He hasn't signed in for a while, anyone got some news of him?

EDIT: Got a reply from him in the end, Chris is alright but the production is affected.

Really glad to see this. I also hope he continues to make things right, until everyone is made whole. How he ended up at this point certainly wasn’t a good thing, but in the end we all have a choice to make, you can either run from your issues or face them head.   Most people who’ve wronged others in this hobby just run and hide, and Chris always seemed different than that. Glad to see it.

Update to for the community.
I did receive my order for full set of Gold Spanish Treasures: 1, 0.5, and 0.25 oz gold coins.
Bitcoin penny has kept me updated and shipped them this week.

In spite of all the issues, I hope Bitcoin Penny continues to build back the reputation they once had. This is a good step in the right direction. I think I am one of the last few to have outstanding orders, I hope others get their orders soon if they are still outstanding.

Still waiting, hope fading

Yes.
I did receive my Silver Dollar order, which honestly I never thought I'd see.
I still have a full gold set, and two full copper sets of the Spanish Treasures pending.
I am hoping that the Silver Dollar release is a good sign, but time will tell.

Seeing that a new 2024 product from BP has been released and I'm still on the fence with this one I was wondering if all orders have been delivered by now?
Anyone still waiting on their Spanish Treasure coins?

On 3/3/24 @BPCo sent this in a PM: “I know you're weary, and I know it's been a headache, but I am trying to get these last few orders minted and shipped ASAP. I'll post on the thread shortly…”
ON 4/14/24 a PM sent by me to @BPCo enquiring to when ASAP has remained unanswered.

Any updates yet? We’re all still here waiting…

Hmm, I made a similar comment and it was deleted by a mod.   

well I was not quoting Theymos as I dont recall the exact name he used for what you did. I will find it. And I have never said a single lie about you.

as for owning the majority of seats - pretty sure that the largest holder is you - would that not make you the majority holder?

To my knowledge, the only keyed and loaded item he made were the manhole covers and the similar sized wooden discs

Manhole Covers: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/auction-1-bitcoin-penny-manhole-cover-physical-bitcoin-no5-2361029
10 made, each loaded with 0.01BTC, Total of 0.10BTC
Not sure if all 10 ever sold

Wooden Discs: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/auction-bitcoin-penny-original-wall-art-funded-signed-dated-1818749
5 made, each loaded with 0.01BTC, Total of 0.05BTC
I know he kept one for himself and I know that one has been peeled, leaving a potential 0.03BTC

Total bitcoin possibly at risk: 0.13BTC

I have him ignored for his constant lies about me, but I'll respond for you if you'd like.

I was paid 0.5 BTC per month + was allowed to keep anything except the BTC/BCH/BSV/BTG (I think on the BTG, going off memory).  I'm sure there's still a bunch of forks at the address I never bothered to claim.

I was not called "slimy AF" I was actually left positive trust feedback by theymos for my service.

I do not own 90% of the seats or even a majority of them.

The seats aren't funded until the threshold to keep small seat owners from having dust build up on their address that they cannot spend because it would cost more than the transaction fee to do so.  If one understood Bitcoin, they would know why nonnakip put this in place.  I didn't have anything to do with it actually and was alerted after it was put in place along with everyone else.  How long it takes to hit the threshold depends on the amount of seats someone owns and the amount of support the organization receives.  I try and do my part and I think the hundreds of BTC I've donated to the project over the years should be evidence of that.  The seats have never received BTC from the sale of seats.  All distributions from seats have always come from donations or mining rewards.  When one purchases a seat, you're purchasing it from someone else in the club and that person receives the BTC.  Even when people buy Minted Seats, they are minting a seat they own or purchasing a seat from another member automatically when minting one through the shop.  The amount from the sale of Minted Seats that is donated to the club is the proceeds from the sale of the coin that would typically go to a coin maker, but I generously donate to the club.

I have a standing buyback offer for anyone who wants to sell their seats for their share of the coins held by NastyMining and have had it on the thread publicly since March 28, 2021.

I lost my BTC in pirate's ponzi alongside everyone else.  It's weird that he speculates about my Bitcoin holdings and thinks I would need to do anything shady after being an active member in this community since 2011.



We could dig into it further but like I already said, there's no need to shine wrongdoing on people who are no longer here.  I've been quiet about it for years but we can talk about why I left the Coin Council Slack Group if you'd like.  It's 2024 and people are airing shit out.  I'll Katt Williams the fuck out of this community.  

Once again, let me try and steer this back to the Bitcoin Penny situation and how concerned we should all be.  What amount of loaded coins has he sold?  What's the total amount of potential liability here if he decides to use customer funds like an ATM again in the future?

If a mod could not delete this so I don't have to keep explaining this over and over again every time I post in this section, that would be great.

I am sure someone here can dredge up the threads about it - I am mobile so it is not as friendly to go searching on vs my pc.

edit - found the post (I think this is it) https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-savings-and-trust-home-closed-50822

Patiently waiting for the reply to this. Heard all about the forks and airdrops ponz but the rest was news to me

Making baseless accusations at someone who cannot defend themselves as they passed away.  You truly are a despicable piece of shit.

Ahhh yes.  I remember the Slack scam where someone pretended to be Bobby Lee and scammed 20+ BTC from a user there and then was so generous with their supporters until they overdosed.  Class act.

This is about Bitcoin Penny running a Ponzi though...  I really don't think we need to start investigating and shining a light on the wrongdoing of people who are no longer here.

EDIT: Funny that your post is merited by the guy who ran the friends of satoshi scam...

It's comments such as this that remind me how much I miss Zepher [RIP]

Viz

remind me again of how much you made off of using the forum funds to gain airdrops/keeping the forks etc?

You may not have actually "stolen" any thing but you are still slimy AF for how you went about it. Even Theymos said so...

Then how all the seats are not funded until they reach thresh hold? Meanwhile you have 90% of all the seats? Yes, I have checked your accounting and it all seems correct - however, how long does it take for a seat to reach thresh hold? Years? A decade? oh and how will they accrue any balance now as the mining pool is closed and you sold your miners? are you getting more? is the only way to accrue more for the seats is by buying seats?

You should just pay out everyone who holds a seat for their balance and end your ponzi.

edit: or explain how much of your bitcoin wealth mostly comes from running a pass thru to pirateat40's ponzi - the original bitocin ponzi

If I had a dollar for every time a user accused me of running a Ponzi Scheme only to have it discovered that they are running a Ponzi Scheme… I truly feel sorry for those who got caught up in this mess and won’t hold my breath for an apology from any of you. Some people just can’t be trusted to hold money for others. Now you know.

I would call it a pre-order - the coins did not exist when pymt was sent, metals and coins would be made after order/pymt would be processed.
