This isn't even a huge deal, does anyone here think it would be too much to ask for Bruce to release the public encryption key for his Wallet so we can all see that he was refunded all the money he lost from Mybitcoin.com, seems simple enough right?

So why wont he do it?

Now we need hard data establishing that the Bruce Wagner of Bold Funding is the Bruce Wagner of The Bitcoin Show.

The fact Bruce started his own thread admitting that he was isn't hard enough?

Bruce, you are a magnet to unfortunate coincidences.


It's no "unfortunate coincidence" 50.61.240.200 is the IP address for onlyonetv.com

Uh, you know Bruce Wagner admitted to it on these very forums, right?

Did you think he just volunteered this information?

You mean like all the hard data that has been gathered over the course of the day that even forced Bruce Wagner to admit that he is the same person, but claim it was just mismanagement not fraud?

OK, let's see what hard data we can find.

Bold Funding, Inc.
Nevada corporation search
Status: "Permanently Revoked".  President: "BRUCE WAGNER" Address "2248 MERIDIAN BLVD STE H   MINDEN, NV".  

The address is actually "Sutton Law Center", an "Incorporate in Nevada" firm specializing in "asset protection". "Corporate Direct forms and maintains your entity, and you subscribe to the Corporate Formality Services, we guarantee that you will not be exposed to personal liability from an attempt to pierce the corporate veil. If you are planning to form an entity to create asset protection, subscribing to the Corporate Formality Services will give you the added confidence that your protection team is working for you."

Updating...

An image of the court judgement against Bruce Wagner and Bold Funding is available.
"... Defendant Bold Funding and Defendant Bruce Wagner did not possess a license to engage in the business of a mortgage broker, mortgage servicing company, or a mortgage company in Illinois. ... Defendant Bold Funding and Defendant Bruce Wagner received thousands of dollars from homeowners for the purpose of providing funding for them, but the Defendants did not provide such services and then retained these monies for their own use."

However, one thing's for sure: Bruce Wagner's got a lot of explaining to do.

Maybe, but this isn't a courtroom, and your diatribe not evidence of much.  If he was a con artist, he was a crappy one, and still is.  What con artist would still be using an identity that could easily tie back to such prior events?  Particularly within a community that it is so very easy to obscure one's own identity.  What gain would there have been for Bruce to invest into Mybitcoin.com just to scuttle it?  Certainly he would have known that the blockchain would eventually trace back to himself and that the scandal would have devalued the currency.

Who says Bruce "invested" in anything?

It's like conning 101 man, you pretend to put a lot of your own capital into an investment and invite friends along for the ride, meanwhile you have control over the whole thing and run off with the other investments when it is time to disappear.

It's evidence that Bruce Wagner has admitted to being a man who's defrauded vulnerable homeowners out of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

After reading all this shit the last few days I think this is on spot:

the mybitcoin guy just used Bruce as an easy pawn

And not only does this imply that this mybitcoin guy is on this forum, it is also likely that he is one of those that constantly bring up new threads about Bruce, because this "Tom Williams" seems o be the main profiteer of having Bruce as an easy pawn.

Maybe some mod should send the IP addresses of those thread starters to #bitcoin-police.

Apparently I inspired this image.
I hope that the sponsors of his show are made aware of the recent revelations.

I pulled my sponsorship (bluecanarynightlight.com) pretty quickly after seeing what a mess the Bitcoin Show was. I regret every bit-penny I paid for those ads. I hope the community will accept my apologies for being in any way involved.

This is just weak!

Would one of you guys file a fucking police report so he can get locked up if any of this crap is real and bitcoin can move on. Or shut the fuck up and stop spreading FUD. Atm this forum is like a soap opera on bad acid.

Oh and mods and admin pick your balls up off the damned floor set a timeframe or what ever for getting this bowl of crud sorted one way or another if not met then just just zap any threads on this shite to kingdom come there are other places for this kind of.....

Keep it real
The integrity of the moderators is as questionable as Bruce Wagner at this point.

That's a stretch, unless Theymos was convicted of fraud in a mortgage assistance scam too. Smiley


Well maybe so, But I would love to hear as to why they are trying to suppress Bruce Wagner stories.

I don't know about the rest of the mods, but I'm a new mod and just moving/locking/deleting as appropriate when it's a complete troll post.

Sharing personal information, possible defamation of character, etc. etc. It's hard to find solid facts on the internet Sad If they straight out deleted it; I'd cry conspiracy.
