This is really cool, go Phinnaeus!

But a charity is more honourable
Charity within capitalism is unethical, for the same reason that the WORST slave-masters were those who treated their slaves well! In doing so, they create the illusion that slavery is a tolerable condition. It's not!Likewise, wage-slavery exploitation is NOT a tolerable condition, and the only way we're going to get everyone to wake up to this reality is to STOP softening this horrible brutality with the breadcrumbs and blankets of charity!
Damn, am I the only one here who actually reads?

$100,000 is expensive, but the membership is worth every penny. Everything is expensive nowadays.... Even an additional passport costs you some $400,000. $100K might seem expensive now, but after 5 years you will realize the value of being a Platinum Member of TBF.

Wow, well played Phinn.
I actually was looking for the payment as well as for the KnC payment on Blockchain.info and didn't find it right when I looked over it.
I then thought "Well, it's only a web service, if I don't look at the longest chain on the network myself, I cannot claim it's not there" and proceeded with some coding while waiting for news on this thread.
So... what Phinn said are all valid reasons for me to further distrust TBF even tho I already did. There are interesting days to come regarding the foundation.
Big thank you to Phinn, sometimes you gotta wake people up!

You are a real believer..

hope that you will be glad at the end.

Phinn, I must admit you got me there.
I was looking for your tx and also wondered, why the heck would Phinn do that?
Apart from that I must say that I am starting to get upset with your posts (not just this one).
I have other things to do but the info you keep giving us got me hooked on reading/finding out more.
Please let me do some work!!!!
I hate you
PS: Speaking of KnC Miners, anybody else seen this: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/260in3/kncminercom_puts_butterfly_labs_bad_reputation_to/

Phinnaeus Gage, you are a fucking genious for confusing me like this. I was already trying to find your TX, without success of course. Anyway, you are making a great point and I would also like to know where their transaction is. With a message stating that they are indeed in control of the sending address by signing the message with that address, of course. 
May 23, 2014, 05:24:25 AM
Maybe Kncminer gave the foundation 100k in gear.. But I was looking for Knc donation too, so you are right, the foundation has some more explaining to do..
May 23, 2014, 05:17:15 AM
I'm pretty sure this is somebody's $1,000 USD Gold Membership payment: https://blockchain.info/tx/2191e05c8d9c7a9e3648011a39a3d15e7f7e5283dbb8a2fdfa70f216c57d3c28

With apologies to those who congratulated me, I ask: WHERE THE FUCK IS PROOF THAT KnC MINER PAID THEIR $100K USD via BTC TO THE BITCOIN FOUNDATION FOR THEIR PLATINUM MEMBERSHIP PRIOR TO BEING ABLE TO VOTE FOR BROCK PIERCE FOR THE EMPTY BOARD SEAT?
TBF only uses one bitcoin wallet address for transparency.
TBF received 5,000 BTC to said address at onset of formation.
TBF oNLy accepts BTC - none other - when accepting membership dues, regardless the size.
TBF has some 'splainin' to do!
TBF cannot claim if was via some other money transfer avenue, for that would negate the rules they themselves written.
TBF cannot show some other bitcoin wallet account they have control of, for that would negate their transparency stance, along with showing something else that could be easily gleaned if such exists.
TBF cannot claim that it hasn't been paid yet, for that would open up a whole 'nother can o' worms.
Looks to me like TBF has got themself into another pickle.
How many more times am I, along with the entire Bitcoin community, going to be lied to? How much more money will be stolen from us BITCOIN MINIONS due the foxes guarding the Jerk Chicken house?

$100 K can safe a lot of lives but people prefer to buy a yacht
with such money I would build a charity organisation

Yep! A yacht just like this one, with cash to spare to hire on two mates: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmaRTZpJgPA#t=314

If you've taught me one thing, phinn, it's to vet rather than believe. Can you sign a message with the private key or keys used to txfer $100k to the Bitcoin Foundation as well as the transaction?
To be clear, you asking me about my tx or KnC's tx?
May 23, 2014, 04:35:34 AM

There! It's there now. Take a look: https://blockchain.info/address/1BTCorgHwCg6u2YSAWKgS17qUad6kHmtQW
Now, where's my apoloby?
Now, where's my apoloby?
I don't see any recent transactions for $100K.
Btw, that was either a very stupid, or a very smart move.
I don't know which yet, but I am sure that you wouldn't just throw $100K away for no reason.
I don't understand why you can't see it. It's there! Is there anyway that blockchain.info somehow messed up the ledger?
Maybe if you sort all the transactions according to their size if might show up. When blockchain.info comes back up, try that. My transaction should be right above KnC Miner's $100K via BTC transaction (depending on how the dates are sorted, of course), of which theirs'll be easy to spot, for it'll be the second biggest transaction to TBF, with mine now tied for second as well.
BTW, snatch the URL of KnC's tx and post it when you find mine, posting that as well. Better yet, take a screenshot, then post that.
Can't wait till the next election so that my vote will negate KnC's vote due to both of us having the same voting rights being verified Platinum Members and all.
Blockexplorer shows the same transactions as blockchain: http://blockexplorer.com/address/1BTCorgHwCg6u2YSAWKgS17qUad6kHmtQW
Same here, I can't see the payment. Do you have the transaction ID at hand?
