Hopefully everything turns out OK for everybody involved! I had like 0.25 BTC on inputs.io... sent them an e-mail, and got back ~0.21 BTC. Still better than nothing, although I'd prefer to get back all the amount...
looking forward to seeing some developments and clarifications regarding this issue!

So people with less than 1 BTC are getting 80%, and people with more than 1 BTC are getting only 60% refunds..?

Yep, it's a "sliding scale".
1 BTC at the current sliding scale would be 74%, 2 BTC 65%…

personally i'd trade my 5+ years of trust all day for $1,600,000 bucks!!?   Grin ROTFLMFAO!!!

Why would you post that?

You're effectively saying "I'm a thief but I lack the opportunity".

Is that how you want people to think of you, as an incompetent thief?

Ladies and Gentlemen!

After watching the previous posts, I've got (once more) an idea/suggestion:

We've got here some people that do not trust or don't rely on inputs.io modus operandi.

Maybe the remaining BTC should be sent to an address that ONLY some REALLY reliable member from the community has the private key, so he would send/refund the coins to remaining users.

Inputs.io could publish or send the refund plan (to whom, how much, list order etc) to that "escrow".

I'd vote Mr. dooglus in order to accomplish that task (once again) since he did it perfectly in the past and holds thousands of BTC from investors at his gambling business without any problems so far.

(dooglus, sorry for getting you right into the core of this mess but I appreciate your behavior among the community for a long time.)  Tongue

he gave a better service than coinjar.io he could have easily been number one. But he decided to be a scammer.

That is the way kids handle stuff. Much easier to scam than to build a good and honest service.

Got a refund of about 85% of 1.1 btc. first transaction didn't have fees and took forever to confirm before it disapearred. Sent a mail asking to redo trnasaction, got taken care of with fees, within a couple of hours. Glad this is over for me. Hope for the best for the rest of you.
Do contact him, he's answering in a reasonable time frame for someone in this situation.

I don't know if TF scammed all of us.  But I had my miner stuck pointing to inputs.io and TF helped me enable the API so I can send a sgined message to my miner to send payout to my new address.

He is at least a nice guy and trying to take responsibility (if he wasn't the scammer).  It's a tough situation either way. He's lost the trust of the community forever.

So far evidence was not given that tradefortress was hacked. All we have are conspiracy theories of the community and excuses or tradefortress.

Has this illegal banker/scammer not been thrown in the can yet.   I'm sure it won't be long.

~it's not real money?  Cheesy

OVER RULED.

(Trendon Shavers already tried that).

http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/08/federal-judge-bitcoin-a-currency-can-be-regulated-under-american-law/

In the case of a Texas man accused of massive Bitcoin-based fraud, a federal judge has ruled that bitcoins are “a currency or form of money," and are therefore subject to relevant US laws.

Let's hope the Aussie's agree.

2. Inputs.io had no business model. Why would TradeFortress spend tens of bitcoins for advertising, making affiliate programs (forum signature spam) and deals with bitcoin (gambling) sites operators..
It had one: fees. Charging 0.005 when it often would spend less.
It had a second one: attemting to corner the market before Bitcoin goes mainstream. Any service that is the #1 Bitcoin-related service in its field will be worth a fortune when Bitcoin is widely accepted.
Pretty much. How much does Snapchat earn, and what's their valuation? Smiley


Hi TF,

I had mining issues and it had to be delivered to my inputs.io account.  Would you mind refunding it?  I sent an email to inputs.io.

Thank you!

Quite a turn of events for this.  Luckily I've never been one to trust web wallets.

How many of these users who are claiming refunds are alts of TF?

i doubt many, i bet he is just paying a few of the loud ones right now so it looks like he is solving the problem.


the biggest mess will be the coin lenders people who wont get anything back.

TF is going to end up with way more than 4,000 BTC when this is over.
