I've received my money from pirate already. Now waiting on my other money in the ppt schemes.

if you had a bst account (at 7%/w ?), why did you put additional money into PPTs (at less than 7%/w)?

Clearly to spread the risk...

All the passthroughs are reliant on pirate anyway,if the BTCST defaults it will be interesting to
see what happens to all the guys that were offering 2-3% "risk -free" bonds and investments
more than likely some of them were collecting 7% rates from pirate and pretending to be investeed in something
safer

if one was smart you would go to a person in power... i dunno... a district attorney or someone below him and explain
what happened if they have time. explain to them they would be all over the tech news if they could assist in the case
of the stolen bitcoins. get 15 minutes of fame in certain areas of the news.

they might bite if they were smart enough to get it. but that takes a bit of work to find that special someone who
can pull strings like that and desire publicity like that.

It is called the SEC, but then they would probably send the IRS after you to explain where the funds came from in the first place.

there is laws around contracts and pirate agreed to a contract which is preserved in glbse if he renages on the contract he has broken that law and can be pursued through the courts for remuneration.

when did pirate use glbse?

i thought he had. idk he has not used it?

He doesnt use it only passthrough operators do. You have no contract with pirate unless you invest directly. But the it depends what contract you signed by handing him coins.

Son, you need to stop wasting police time before I show you what pepper spray tastes like. We have real issues about real people to deal with. For example, speeding people extending their garages without a permit.

Officer,a bad man called pirate from the internet stole my bitcoins

Quote

[Police Guy]
OK, so this bad pirate man hacked into your computer and stole something?

Quote

[BitLame]
No, I gave him the bitcoins 100% voluntarily.

Quote

[Police Guy]
Um, why would you give your magic internet money to someone who you've never met named pirate?

Quote

[BitLame]
Because of greed. He was offering impossible profits. I can't resist free lunches and deals too good to be true.

So the question remains - why is pirate paying over the odds for hashing power for his private pool, and where are the coins coming from to pay GPUMAX?

There are a few theories but I'm partial to the money laundering one. Pirate is likely to have a lot of money to launder, maybe from big Silk Road operations, either his' or his partners'.

He has claimed his method doesnt involve anything illegal. Selling high demand goods with a big profit margin would probably be closer to the business model if I would hazard a guess.

Unless paying out to his clients were terms of the sale, or unless he bought the private keys themselves, etc.

People draw so many conclusions from so little data, I swear.

In this case, it's actually easy to confirm that Shadow383 is correct - it's GPUMAX. I should really have googled the address myself:

Quote from: pirateat40 on June 21, 2012, 11:50:11 AM

The following address is managed by GPUMAX.
