Let's be an asshole and see what BTC transactions were relayed by an IP address pirateat40 has been known to connect from in IRC:

I found my deposit address for BTCST 7 times on the FIRST page Wink

So, let's say that Pirate is really this guy and is currently in Texas.

Now, there's the legal way out of it with declaring corporate bankruptcy and fucking everyone over.

Or has he been caught by the Feds for money laundering? And in an agreement to turn states evidence against everyone else involved, he gets to go under the witness protection program.

Oh, the possibilities...

ur a cheese hole. ;p

Corporate Chapter 7 is not a get out of debt free card.
".....Bondholders, and other unsecured creditors, will be notified of the Chapter 7, and should file a claim in case there's money left for them to receive a payment."

and the second one is just plane corny. If the feds were looking for those involved in illegal laundering, they would be going in the wrong direction by screwing with unwitting bond holders..

The fact he asked all the PPT guys to hand him over information about their customers is concerning.

very...

This may or may not be relative, but I thought I would share it nonetheless just in case: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1142111

Honestly, I'm not spreading fud (or is it FUD?).

Hmm, odd you bring him up. I did note something interesting when tracing some coins that went into BS&T deposit addresses today. Some of them were being mixed with freshly minted coins that had NOT moved since being minted about block 45,### and other similarly old ones from fresh mint blocks. All with 0 fees moved any place either, ofc.

DO please share what you feel is the connective tissue between pizza man and pirate though?


Since you asked nicely, and I like you, I'll offer up the link for everybody here, then PM you more details. If this pans out (another pun not intended), I expect a BlowBob from somebody--anybody--because my neck hurts.

Unless you're implying that he's laundering money for the PPT clients and if turning over that info?

I'm saying that the Feds could try and claim they are and make them prove they aren't to get their money back. You are guilty until you are proven innocent with forfeiture laws. How many depositors/creditors/whateverthefucktheywanttocallthemselves are willing to give up their anonymity to fight it? Not to mention if they want to try the whole tax evasion thing too.

Maybe this was his plan all along: to get caught. Meanwhile he's been loading Zero Halliburton cases up with bullion bought with  a percentage of the BTC and putting them in storage units across the country...

There is another elephant in the room here namely US withholding taxes on interest that has already been paid to Foreign Persons. http://www.irs.gov/publications/p515/ar02.html#en_US_2012_publink1000225127 This can be up to 30% of all the interest paid by Bitcoin Savings and Trust in the past and would be owed to the IRS if pirateat40 did not withhold. It also depends where the "Foreign Person" is located for example:

Bitlane (Canada) 0%
Chaang Noi (Goat) ช้างน้อย (Thailand) 15%

By the way I am not invested at all in Bitcoin Savings and Trust. I am mentioning this because even though I live in Canada, I have been involved with US withholding taxes for close to 20 years, so I would suggest this matter be discussed with the appropriate professionals (lawyer, accountant etc.) by those involved.

Aye, there is always a lot to consider in such unknown situations where there is some possiblity of legal proceedings being involved. Strangely, Pirate only asked for an internet handle and BTC address from lenders of the pass throughs and no other info. yet...

Would be nice to know what he is up to. Hopefully for their sakes, the whales involved are doing more than just being quiet about the matter. ;p

That is what I suspected. In that case it could be 30% of all interest paid by Bitcoin Savings and Trust even interest paid to US persons unless pirateat40 can establish that a lower rate applies because either the person that received the interest is a US person or is in a treaty country.

BS&T doesn't appear to be incorporated so it would likely be personal bankruptcy.  I don't know what the implications for that would be under Texas law and whether he'd still be able to act in any management capacity regarding GPUMax.

It's very odd that he - personally - wants the details of pass-through users.

The Feds likely wouldn't care about the lenders that Pirate scammed. They would want his clients, the ones he's actually laundering money for.

Goat, I apologize for being a douche to you..... I only NOW realize that you are getting fucked just like everyone else, or perhaps worse from the requests of Trendon.

Thanks, it really does suck getting fucked up the ass from someone you trusted...

..and assholes such as myself don't add to the 'discomfort' I am sure.

I HONESTLY thought his game was Realestate/Loans etc in the REAL world and I fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Where are you located Bitlane?  out of sheer curiousity......

Calgary, Alberta, Canada.


3-5 million is untraceable funds makes for a pretty easy disappearance.  

He could go live in Jamaica the rest of his life and none of his lenders could ever find him.  

Truly "Disappearing" is a lot harder than it seems.  Very few people manage to pull it off when there are lot of people looking for them.  People who have family have a VERY difficult time truly disappearing.

I'm pretty sure he will not be disappearing, I'm pretty sure he wants to play lawyer games.

You broke bread with this man (used loosely) less than 2 months ago, yes?  

And here he is bending you over for all to see.  Takes a real fuck-head to pull that off.  

Yes, He asked me personally to come from Thailand. It was not easy...

Goat, thanks for the irc dump.  I'm sorry you invested more than you could afford to lose.  Here's my take.

Pirate will pay back the coins I have in BTCMax with interest up to the last hour, as promised.

Bitchlane however, will be the last to see a single Satoshi.

The drama, chaos, and mutual recriminations will continue.  But...

Things will become even more dramatic, more chaotic, and more acrimonious.

God I'm loving the Bitcoin season finale.

Spoiler: Zhong kills pirate, who is actually Jared.

I followed that texas corporation link.

One of the 3 owners of gpumax being Michael Thalasinos, whom is also involved in another corp. titled J Q Greetings LLC.

JQ Greetings = some texas greeting cards store located:

545 N Cowan Avenue # J
Lewisville, TX    75057-3198

somebody needs to show up and start asking questions about one of his business associates.

Added: http://jqgreetings.com

If you show up there and this Michael dood is somebody completely different like a 88 year old guy, then we have to add fraud to the list of complaints against GPUMAX and friends.
the other is this guy;
http://labs.mirror.me/googleplus/117414643911834461861

Speaking of fraud...  Is anyone else curious if the "some company name I've never heard of" was on that bad check written to Lowes, is actually going to be that of a little known company called 'Intellipants'?

no clue either, but the clerk was happy to send copies.. still waiting on them though..
