No, but I havn't read all pages since it collapsed.
sure, but do you know of anyone who went to the police? I'd be happy to read a report
here like "guys, today I went to the police and they told me...", but nothing.

Police is working slow but steady + They won't give you any names to avoid self justice and for tactical reasons relating to their investigations.
I can't believe that nothing happens. A paypal account of him is known. it would be a shame if there
was not at least some police officer / lawyer / whatever who checked back with paypal. Could be useless
as it's not too difficult to get an account with a fake identity, but we should at least give it a try.
My investment was insignificant, but I can't believe that someone who lost more than, say, 1k, doesn't
bother to at least talk to the authorities.

So nobody knows?
Nobody knows what? If you mean the identities of the perpetrators of the scam, then no it doesn't appear so.

That's very interesting, seems like that address is very active right now. Do they run new big scam ?
I'd assume it would be some kind of mixer (or other service where mixing would be easy to do), nothing controlled by the people who ran BT.I see. Maybe you right.

I still don't know where BT pulled their daily profit numbers
Out of their ass.
Not that it matters, or can be proved either way, but do you think they actually ever traded in anything?
There seem to be two basic ponzi models
1) Ones which are, from the get go, pure scams pretending to trade but solely designed to gain credibility and deposits until such a time as the admin take the money and run
2) Ones which start off as legit investments and 'go bad'. They have a core business which is real but unexceptional, which is then developed on by the owner for reasons of greed and hubris and becomes a ponzi. If you believe anything that Madoff says, for the first thirty years he was straight.
Hindsight is a great thing, but I followed BT quite carefully and came close to a dabble, luckily deciding not to.
The decider for me was I didn't believe that John Carley existed, there were too many inconsistencies in the story.
If he didn't/doesn't exist then I think BT must go in category 1.
Usually if you are trying to set up a legit investment you don't go and buy software that is marketed "Professional HYIP Manager"
I don't think there is any reason to believe the traded at all. When the placed closed, there was several days where if there where traders, they damn sure would have known why they weren't trading.. The fact that everyone was in a confused daze and had zero answers tell us that the whole thing stopped working tells us pretty much that everything is made up and the points don't matter..
I tend to agree this was a ponzi from the start. A well constructed one for sure, but still just a ponzi. I hope these guys are caught because they clearly have great skill at running scams.

Unfortunately I agree that there will be no news to post. I was lucky enough to only lose about 80 USD to this scam. It is a very safe assumption that my funds and the funds of everyone else are long gone. My one hope is that these people are caught and prosecuted criminally.
Well, their ass was pretty well tuned to some market movements, so the question is not answered so easily...
No, their numbers were hardly related to the market at all. Even if they were it wouldn't be hard take daily turnover or price changes into consideration when they made up their numbers. They did reduce the payout over time, but that was to make the scam last longer and not because market conditions changed.

There are some self-reported success stories from day-traders but there don't seem to be any public fund results or group analyses made for day-trading to show return rates.
Also if anyone has any ideas on a possible profit model, I can take a look and correct myself again.
I still don't know where BT pulled their daily profit numbers, they were market-based but which indicators they used is unknown.

What you're talking about ? That was all scam from beginning to the end.
I'm coming to conclusion there was some government agency involved in it, too well organized.
