Did Sam from Labcoin contact Ukyo like he said he would do 2 days ago? I doubt it....

Is there anybody not invested in Labcoin that actually believes it's a good idea that they be allowed on BF?
If so, what is your reasoning?
If so, what is your reasoning?
I am not invested in Labcon, I glanced at it some time back and was never impressed enough to pursue it further. Maybe I missed out on riding the bubble up, but I find it is safer to avoid bubbles entirely.
About them listing on BitFunder: I see no more reason to exclude them than any of the other shady investment schemes. We are all grown ups, just because something is listed on BitFunder does not mean you have to buy it.
True, we all need to make our own decisions and if Labcoin was just starting out having them listed on BitFunder would be just fine. They have however broken clauses in the prospectus and have made announcements with set dates that they have not met and may never meet. Due to them setting deadlines and missing them and violating the shareholder agreement they should not be listed on BitFunder.

Nobody claimed we'd be forced buy LABscam simply because BF listed it. What a silly strawman!
LAGcoin stole $3 million from clueless amateur investors, and bringing that shitstorm of liability to Bitfunder increases regulatory risk for all other asset issuers/buyers.
Scaring potential/existing BF customers away by listing scams also negatively effects the exchange and its users.

Gimme your login credentials and I'll help you 
I wouldn't suggest it.
So what would you suggest ? Tor not working, and I don't feel like buying a VPN ( not sure it's gonna work, tried hotspot shield and didn't work ) just for using weexchange.

It's Ukyo's call, it's non of your business.If so, what is your reasoning?
It's between me and the individuals i was addressing - 'anybody not invested in Labcoin'. I value their objective opinions.

Hi Ukyo,
Weexchange worked well but is not censured in China. Is there any idea on how to get funds out of BF for people living in China or is it a lost cause ?

If it is not censured then what is the problem? Or are you saying that it is censured?

Please do allow it unless you have good evidence of that. There are people on the Labcoin thread claiming that btc-tc was brought down singularly because it hosted Labcoin, and spreading rumors that are harmful to bitcoin generally. If they are lying to destroy a security, then letting them win will encourage such behavior in the future.
Let me phrase it this way: I've never seen so many attempts (dozens of sockpuppets, faked announcements, man in the middle attacks etc.) to create an effect on the market. Labcoin has both operational as well as technical problems, but I'm pretty sure it's no full blown scam.
I don't think they are a scam but they do mislead their investors and there is the potential that an amatuer investor was burned by Labcoin, went to the SEC and started an investigation. Any security that lies to its shareholders should not be listed scam or no scam. Report honest news or don't report news at all. Lying ruins it for everyone.
Im not trying to manipulate the market, I just don't want to see BitFunder go the way of BTC-TC.

Please don't allow Labcoin to be listed on BitFunder, I believe they pose an legal risk to the long term future of BitFunder.
That legal threat is already there. AFAK, all the securities being traded there are unregistered, and offered to US public. Thats illegal under US law (almost certainly the same applies to EU and pretty much everywhere else), there are no 2 ways about it.
The securities potentially being scams, I dont really see what extra legal threat that may incur for anyone other than the issuers.
Also, the idea that an exchange should be responsible for weeding out scams is ludicrous. An exchange doesnt have the incentive (scams make them money too), doesnt have the authority, probably doesnt have the know how. It would just create a false sense of security.
I would however, encourage exchanges to require asset issuers to prove their identity so at the very least legal action can be taken if things go sour.
