Well since I'm US Based and verified with GLBSE, I'll notify the board if charges come down for unregulated security trading against me.
I'm a very very small fry, but there is a small chance maybe 1%.
I have a feeling this might be a clawback from Pirate Ponzi.

I feel sorry for anyone who didn't pull out after learning that the SEC guy knew something would be happening with GLBSE.
This was one of the reasons why I closed my asset. I did not want to be holding funds and no way to pay back. I just hope the people that got their funds back a few days ago took them out of GLBSE.
How a I screwed if people are panic-selling assets into my hands?
I appreciate the balls' hardness, but I've been there and done that (bought many BTC at 20$ after the peak/hack and gone down to the bottom with the ship). This time I am tempted to jump in a lifeboat a.s.a.p.
If all the GLBSE coins are safe as stated and the shares on there continue making a profit then a panic sell shouldn't very last long or be very deep.

Everyone light a candle for GLBSE. Keep the faith.
Since IF GLBSE ever comes back online it seems most likely that a panic selling will happen (even more than the BTC price after the Gox hack), I would guess that we are already royally screwed anyway.
Oh well, it's just money.
Oh well, it's just money.
I don't think so, if its only a botched update, why should people freak out and start panic selling?
And why wouldn't it just be announced? "Hey guys, had some issues with an update, should be online in a day or so - we'll keep you posted". Then start a thread here explaining things, and all is fine. That goes for server issues, hosting issues, pretty much anything. Even if it turns out to be a cat walking on the keyboard, if it's not some kind of legal issue this is hugely unprofessional.

I hope really they clear the orderbook before going online again. I would hate it to buy right into a panic.

I think GLBSE are back in business very soon.
Yep, hopefully!To me it feels more like an update screw up requiring fixing or SEC wanting to clawback funds from people who profited from Pirate's scheme.
If anyone receives any info, I'm keeping this thread updated:

Excellent thread, good work

Is that a gut feeling, or do you have some info that we don't?

Christ that Mpex site looks like the last place I'd send a bitcoin. If you're here slagging the competition it rings even more true.
Keep sending them by looks and soon enough you won't have any left and we won't have to hear from you ever again.
Tried and tested by so many before....
Please stop promoting your service in of threads about competitors' services. It is off topic and unprofessional.
Hope GLBSE can pull through this OK. I pulled my coins out last week, fearing the GLBSE recession continuing. Hooray for dumb luck. I hope all investors are able to get their funds out.

Protip guys, don't start a business like this without first hiring a lawyer who specializes in finance & securities law, period.
In other words, don't start a business like this without first being a millionaire, or having one to back you up. (it won't stop on "hiring a lawyer")
This is pretty much true. People wrongly perceive the barriers to entry into the Bitcoin financial services market as being low - they pretty much believe that all they need to be successful is an idea and a website. Those who enter the market believing that are likely to fail quite spectacularly.

I've reviewed your posts, you are definitely not worth doing business with , but carry on. Iggy button on.
Although I'm really not fan of the PR person MPEx chose, MPEx is a perfectly OK exchange. The fact it issues such great companies as SatoshiDice or BitVPS and is the only one to offer options is a major plus too.
