Hi there!

GCX here and we've just stumbled upon this.

We are in no way shape or form affiliated to, have done business with or share any direct or indirect relationship with BitGold or AnthemVault.

We are direct competitors and that's pretty much where it ends.

Happy to answer any and all your questions.

Regards,
GCX.io

“The flexibility of the BitGold platform allows gold to be a core savings account coupled with digital currency for seamless global payments, or as a natural-world storage and safety valve for an inevitable internet of money.”

In laymen's terms: We will lie on our backs with the unicorns and jack-off to the rainbows in the sky.

Other services such as Bitreserve, Bitcoin Bullion, DigitalTangible and Amagi Metals offer similar services to BitGold.

I wonder why they didn't mention their Hayek or Netagio.

BitGold is directly connected to GCX.io which is also directly connected to Anthem Vault. If you don't like one, we'll funnel your ass to another entity we're associated with that it, too, has its accounting paperwork audited on a daily basis. Where's the gold, you ask? That's a secret, but rest assured that it, too, has been audited and surveyed and that there's no monkey business afoot, wink, wink, wink.

Oh, that 2005 bitgold site is just like today's hyips Sad

However I believe the domain have chaned owner, as the wayback machine have featured even older screenshots of that site, and the site looks like a throwaway (i.e. fake company website which intended to sell their site). Or the old owner of the domain don't extend the expiry date of the domain, and it got registered by another.
BTW I also wanted to get some free gold there but I had an account right before they started the campaign and I got nothing Sad

Whoever owned bitgold.com back in the day wouldn't have given it up so easily due to it having some value. And surely some Bitcoiner wouldn't have ended up with it. And surely BitGold wouldn't have started a company named BitGold without FIRST obtaining the domain name that was STILL for sale when BitGold was incorporated.

I honestly believe that those who were behind the old BitGold are one and the same behind the new BitGold making us believe that the site has changed hands no less than twice over the years since its HYIP days.

If Derrick didn't have his and others dicks up his ass so far, he would have came here and shed proper light on the subject oppose to echoing what other one-post-count users were crying - witch-hunt!

So not to disappoint, yes, I'm officially on a witch-hunt pertaining to BitGold thanks to Derrick's efforts. Oh, and I don't have to worry 'bout him refuting my discoveries because he's done with me since having already wasted my question, albeit asked in the name of others.

Okay, since BitGold had yet to conduct an audit of its physical gold, I conducted the audit. As you can see, all of BitGolg's gold is safe and sound and ALL accounted for, and stored as a Tweet.

"Fuck the gold! We're only here for the witch-hunt."

1. Excess vulgarity. (Poor little Derrick was hurt and had to hunt his mommy's titties to suck on because I used the word 'fuck' three times.)

2. Asking if large accounting firms work for free (this is either not serious or very stupid) (I was driving the point home because everywhere I looked, BitGold espouses the accounting aspect but NEVER addresses the audit of the actual gold.)

3. Joining a witch hunt (Derrick adds up 1 and 2 and comes to the conclusion that I, or anybody else who speaks ill of BitGold is on a witch hunt.)

Let me guess: You're paid the big bucks at BitGold, that's why you're here to see if you can destroy its brand in six posts or less. I'd say you've done it in exactly three, giving you a bye on your first and second post.

Hi,

I have seen many referrals today for this site, usually this is a warning sign to a Ponzi/HYIP. https://www.bitgold.com

After reading some of the posts it appears they want all your personal details to provide you with some "virtual" gold. which they hold for you. until you can collect at a vault, and im wondering how easy that would be...

I have also seen this website design, images before now on a few other sites.

Originally back in 2005, BitGold.com was a HYIP, You can view the wayback machine archive below.

Wayback Machine showing BitGold in 2005: https://web.archive.org/web/20050403034103/http://www.bitgold.com/

Since then, BitGold appeared to be doing very little, until January.

Please people be wary of this.

Yep, in due time the old bitgold.com developed a negative connotation toward its brand under the direction of the infamous Hajji Mbagne DIOP.

After a five-year run, the old bitgold.com took an ~5-year hiatus to emerge as the Bitcoin-themed bitgold.com: https://web.archive.org/web/20110717111117/http://www.bitgold.com/

Early in 2014, the new Bitgold introduced itself to the world, doing so without procuring the domain name, for [fuckin'] clearly it was supposedly still for sale on May 9, 2014: https://web.archive.org/web/20140209215245/http://www.bitgold.com/

A smart outfit would not only make sure that a brand does not have any negative connotation attached to it, but make sure it's available prior to getting the brand registered. That, or they fucked up big time in that regard, but you can trust them with your gold.

That's what extent the BitGold dudes will go through to advance their snake oil.

Not a serious question: At only a 1% transaction fee, how much gold has to exchange hands at BitGold so that Alexander Soros, the son of George Soros, can see a return on his $21.4 million investment?

Large accounting firms do not work for free. Because your questions are clearly not serious, I will not answer them.

Derrick Schwabe of 4917 50th Ave, Suite 207 Camrose, ALBERTA T4V 0S2 Canada, I say that by taking such a stance you fucked up big time.

Where the fuck do you get off with claiming that my questions are "clearly not serious"?

Bitgold customer: Can we see the audit for the gold in your vaults?
Bitgold: Obviously, your question is clearly not serious, thus go fuck yourself.

SCAM ALERT !!!!!
BitGold is completely scam.... I had an account with them and my friend sent $850 to my account to redeem it as he has no bank account to redeem the funds, my balance became $850 and every thing was great..... Then i tried to link my bank account to my BitGold account to redeem these funds, After 1 hour they disabled my account !!!!!!!!!!!! I sent them 4 support message to know what is wrong but NO ANSWER !!!!!!!! After 3 days they sent me this funny mail:
"Your account has been suspended in connection with the distribution of fraudulently obtained funds. The funds have been returned to the original cardholder and your account will remain suspended.
Thank you!
Kind regards,

Of course this is the same email which they send to all victims considering that they got their gold using Credit Card but in my case i don't use any Credit Cards, these funds was sent to me as i told you before !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO BE ATTENTION ...... BitGold is completely SCAM

I'm not here to defend bitGold, but for what i've read on their site, you have to link a personal bank account (and personal means that you own that bank account) before you start sending money from a bank account, ad that you can't receive money from other bank accounts that are not in your personal use (intestate to your name), this because some country are not allowed to deal with this service, and receive money from another account not in you own property can cause to them problems, because it could be of a country not allowed for their services.... this is what i've understood reading tos and faqs...
