This has gone too far.

I am selling everything I have there, moving out all of my BTC, and never trading there again.


The owner of the platform acts vindictively and hot-headed, freezes accounts/issues of anyone he doesn't agree with, and has basically placed hundreds if not thousands of his customer's BTC in limbo.

Death-knell. I predict crickets over there.



In light of recent news... Good call Smiley You must be happy!

Not happy, but glad I paid attention.

I had one investment left with MMM, and he doesn't seem to be communicating with anyone here, or maybe I missed the posting.

So, I lost some, but not nearly what it COULD have been.

I am done trading stocks, bonds, etc with Bitcoin.

It has been an interesting run, but this is the last straw.

I ordered a Jalapeno from BFL, but I might just sell it when it arrives, and sell off all of my BTC.

We will see. I have a few months to decide.

When I saw Goat's assets delisted, I decided it was the last straw, and bailed everything I could.

Only BTC0.05 and a few shares of SS were left trading. SS should be fine. Imma kick some ass over the bitcents. Wink

As long as I get my Tygrr and defaulted pirate debt back, I'll be happy Smiley
(I want it for trophies!)

Shame nefario took the most pussy way out - just close up & run.  Tongue
I had most of my assets up for sale at the time of the closure but there was just no volume  Undecided

So many warning signs, just like with bitcoinica and pirate, still people send their bitcoins to the most retarded people to manage it for them.

Maybe one day this community will actually learn from these incidents. Until then, bring on the next scam. We still got lots of suckers here!

So far all I have is a quick batch of HTML tables generated by shell scripts: http://galaxies.mygamesonline.org/digitalisassets.html

However those are produced from include-files that basically just record values in shell variables, like

BTCrate=12.40000000
DVCrate=0.00001825

etc

which would not be hard to suck in to any kind of pretty-chart-making shellscripts or scripts that output formats for various spreadsheets or stock analysis programs etc I would imagine.

A bitcoincharts type of site maybe? That is kind of what I meant in an earlier post by critics and statisticians and such; sites that help you figure out what aassets interest you, which have been performing well and so on so you can hone in on which ones might warrant an importing of their server-contract into your client so you can interrogate their server about actual current offers and prices and such, and place offers/bids yourself, or deposit that cash voucher your granny sent you in your birthday card.

-MarkM-


Yes. OTcharts  Tongue

I shouldnt have to operate an  client or use a command line just to browse the internet  Tongue

That sounds about right, and just use OT as a backend system.

Open Transactions' server is an exchange, and already is free open source software.

What we need is prettier / more GUI-user-friendly clients people can use to communicate with the servers.

There is a bounty offered: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-185-btc-open-transactions-client-for-grandmas-105506

-MarkM-



Perhaps what he means is a site that is similar to an OT search engine so you can see who has what offerings.

If everyone has their own separate server how do you find them ?

It needs a way to index them. They dont need to list on this index only notify it that it exists and maybe provide a way to display prices/dividends/ etc.

People can then have their own server instance and their own assets but it allows people to find them The site doesnt need to know who the shareholders are or can actually do anything about the assets themselves apart from index them.

Its the same reason you can find torrents on google but the government cant sue google about it.

Perhaps start a new thread, setup bounty for open sourced exchange to be used with open transactions ?

Yeah, that was the whole point of this. Property rights. He was the asset issuer (cuz he said they would have value), the broker, and the exchange.

If you want to be all 3 then there are issues.

Hmm. I am the issuer of the digiBiTCoins, digiDeVCoins etc on my server, and custodian of the wallets the actual coins backing them are in (I would not want to issue tokens representing assets not located in my own vaults), does that present similar "issues"?

-MarkM-


Only if you can force the other holders of the coins to give them back to you at whatever price you demand.

Ah gee gosh golly darn it, that darn Open Transactions gets in my way on that part, only way your balances can be changed is if your private key signs off on the change, and those darn keys only live on your machine not on mine. Pout.

Ah, forced buyback, interesting concept.

Involves someone's balance changing without their privkey signing off on the change. Oops, sorry, problem there.

I guess he won't be wanting to use Open Transactions if he wants to mess with people's balances unilaterally...

Nefario and Goat need to use judge.me. Submit to arbitration and be done with it. They even accept Bitcoin.

How I see it:
Nefario is being stubborn and singing "la la la" with hands over his ears while Goat tells him about the double-spend problem and general fraud problem with the idiotic "code" system.

Goat is being stubborn and singing "la la la" with hands over his ears while refusing to agree to anything.

Nefario should come up with a better system than the damn codes, and Goat should help him come up with this system.

But I'm not a paid arbitrator.

Other than accept the idiotic "code" system what can I agree to? He has made no other demands than use the code system that I know of. Please tell me what he wants me to do.

Thanks.

 


You could have dealt with this whole thing privately instead of dragging it into the public domain. It would have been better to use arbitration before this happened.

Yes, it makes sense to us rational people. However I think the only way they will agree on anything is if they pay for an arbitrator.

Nefario and Goat need to...

I think the answer is simple. 

1) Goat gets a short time to liquidate operations. 
2) Goat sends Nefario BTC for all the outstanding assets. 
3) Nefario distributes the BTC as a dividend to shareholders.
4)  Huh
5) Profit.

This seems like a decent solution.
