are you really the bitcoin_bob @OP?  Shocked

No, actually I am not this guy.

The next high bid on the house wins the auction, I'd like to get this over and done with!

What exactly would be a "high bid"?

What would you do with a house in Germany? Its already below 0° here.
I wish i were island hopping and enjoying the delicious food in Thailand again.

"Needs a little bit of work"
I think this is a joke. A little bit of work should include complete remove old house and build a new one.

which to some people is a little bit of work and to others a mind boggling, incomprehensible task. Its all in the eye of the beholder. I would rather do what you suggested than do the washing up or the laundry but thats just me

The solution to your problem is doing an auction the way it done in the real world for real estate.

Each person who wants to participate in the auction has to place a deposit with the auction house (or escrow) ahead of time. Usually this amount is $10,000 USD.

The deposit ensures only serious bidders participate, and in the event a winner does not pay the winning bid they placed, they forfeit their deposit.

Work great in the real world, should work great in the Bitcoin world Cheesy





As far as anonymity and buying real estate, I know in Germany a GmbH has been used for hundreds of years to own real estate in an anonymous fashion.

A GmbH is the equivalent to an LLC here in the USA.


People purchase real estate anonymously every day in the USA and around the world Cool

I am of course guessing that was a joke post.....

Has this ever been sold? If yes, for what price?

No the house is not sold, but have had offers in the real world on it which are being considered!

As to the comments I keep seeing that I 'died' some people have jobs that take them far away from the internet you know, I can't just be sat in front of a PC my whole life, and if something comes along that is worth monitoring then I will but so far I'm a bit unimpressed with the seriousness of people here so, please forgive me if I vanish for stretches of time Smiley

Clearly OP died in a terrible bitcoin related accident.

Nothing to see here people, move along

What happened?  He walked outside and bitcoin fell from the sky and killed him?

Just to bump this and say that I have not forgotten and will be auctioning the house again, just waiting to get escrow approved.

I've read the whole thread (yes, the whole thread), and I can only conclude that Goat is not a troll nor a shill, but a very poor analyst with very poor critical thinking.
Chaang Noi (Goat) is ridden with false dichotomies, negativity bias, confirmation bias, hasty generalization born from his egocentrism, argument from incredulity, and I believe that there was also some level of False-consensus effect which resulted in his poor judgement.

Hell, I haven't seen so such a gross collection of informal fallacies and cognitive biases in one post since Lucif's thread.
I gotta give it to you, Goat, in this thread you beat Lucif and Kano together in lack of critical thinking.

Btw, Goat claims that bitcoin_bob is a scammer because he doesn't reply to him, or that if bitcoin_bob cancels the auction that automatically "proves" that bitcoin_bob is a scammer.
Regardless of bitcoin_bob being or not actually a scammer, that reasoning is so childishly flawed that my fallacy detector in my brain just exploded.

Goat, you've been pretty much unfair to OP and you fail at critical thinking.
Besides that, honestly I doubt you have purchased a home in anywhere in the world, considering that you fail to understand that a lawyer can act or set up an escrow agent. Everytime OP was mentioning about it, it went way over your head failing to understand what he was implying to.

In any case, I still fail to understand how he fails to understand that the seller has all the risks in a non-escrow transaction.
Once the buyer you sign it BEFORE the transaction of the money, it becomes the buyer's and the deed is irrevocable, THEN it is paid.
So if any buyer was careful enough to hire a competent lawyer who does his due diligence to do all the appropriate checks and reads carefully the deed FOR YOU, there are nil chances of getting scammed with a real estate transaction.


I couldn't agree more! I read through (not every day something like this happens!) and Mr. Goat made a complete fool of himself. Bitcoin_bob you have some mighty patience. Good luck with the auction, sounds like you have a plan to get things moving again.

I lol'd at the tag sale bit because it looks exactly like what Goat was doing (out of sheer ignorance, though, same as the tag sale man)
