As for Neo & Bee, you must make up your own mind. I think they are doing interesting things, think they've maybe hit similar regulatory issues or warnings hitting other start-ups, and it remains to be seen if they will succeed. I completely support what they are trying to do but no one can say what the end result will be. I wish them good luck, and all of you too! Almost all Wink

Regulatory issues is something all Bitcoin businesses are facing not just Neo. Neo is paving the way, being a pioneer in this space so it's only natural there will be challenges and obstacles but this was priced in since the early days, it's nothing new.

It's amazing how far they've come in such a short time, how many friends they've managed to make in Cyprus and the Bitcoin awareness they've brought to this place.

That's the final straw for me. Well done crumbs, destruction won. I'm scrambling my password.

My posts are up for all to see. I've always tried to posted level headed content and asked people to make up their own minds, to understand the risks themselves. I was critical of ActiveMining before trying to help fix things (for a whole 4 weeks), and I've been heavily critical since.

At every turn I see two particular people twist those posts and I'm tired of them being abusive from their anonymous positions. There are more important things to be doing.

As for Neo & Bee, you must make up your own mind. I think they are doing interesting things, think they've hit the same regulatory issues hitting other start-ups, and it remains to be seen if they will succeed. I completely support what they are trying to do but no one can say what the end result will be.




What do you mean final straw? What did I miss?

And an edit because it's only fair I return to this: What a fucking scam. Everything about this was legit except the CEO who pulled the wool over some high profile people, who he used to get this legitimacy. Impossible to say whether this was intended or stupidity but it doesn't matter because the end result is the same.

None of this makes the trolls any better than anyone else because they kept getting in the way of proper discussion. Trader had fair points although I disagreed in that I felt there was sufficient other activity to deal with problems in the initial concept (exchange rate risk), and I mistakenly trusted that the money spent on ads was limited - clearly it wasn't, or something worse happened.

Anyway, this is me holding my hands up. Caught out in this one. I didn't know if it would work but I did think they would survive until June at least, fuck! At least I didn't scramble my pwd because I couldn't remove my avatar yet!

"to be or not to be, that is the bitcoin"

Thank you for the new thread Herp, long time lurker to the boards.

NEOBEE is exactly the type of startup I want to invest in and have (287 shares to date, average buy in @.0035).

The shares are pushed down and just wait for the first financial report to come out, share goes up and the trolls dump.

 I'd have gotten concern if it wasn't for you guys 'anti-trolling', thanks again!


it's now got to the stage where I don't trust a single post on here anymore Smiley

Thanks for the coherent and rational post, not just the analysis but also the insight into current affairs at Neo.

Guys sorry to say so but the NEO guy at 60 minutes now is quite rubbish (he just said that now you can buy nothing with bitcoin)

Apparently this is what he said as would be a shame to quote out of context and leave people with the wrong impression:


Michael is a great guy, perhaps he should have been a little bit more on the offence, seemed like the old guy was hogging all the time. And he didn't say "Now you can buy nothing with bitcoin" he said "Now you can buy nothing with Bitcoin in Cyprus.....we want to make sure that our services are 100% secure..." and then he basically he suggested that he doesn't want to make NEO the next Mt Gox in the department of security
I stand corrected Smiley

Guess depends on the context. You can certainly buy lots of things with Bitcoin, especially online. He probably meant that you can't buy stuff from physical stores in Cyprus with Bitcoin, though you should be able to do that with a NeoBee card at merchants that have Neobee pos devices.

Correct, I think this guy went there unprepared (if i get it correctly the official representative of NEO was going to be there but for some reason did not make it so the second in command took his place at the last moment).

EDIT: The Old guy is really informed though, I am impressed, way to go Cyprus!

Is the older guy against it or for it? He mentioned MtGox at some point.

the old guy fully supports it as a form of payment but not as an investment because prices not steady

Do you know who the old guy is? He was almost on-board with the idea and was basically the "opponent" the Neobee rep had to face. This was apparently set up as some kinda` showdown between Neobee rep and this older guy, moderated by the talk show host.

Thanks for the info thekekk. In my mind he is not against, he is just a bit conservative (not on the political sense) which is normal in Cyprus. If he is considered the opposition in Cyprus then I see very good things in the near future both for bitcoin, NEO and Cyprus itself!

Correct! Irrespective of his opinion though I am impressed by his level of information on bitcoin (for an old Cypriot guys that is Smiley ). If this is a measure of the awareness that NEO raised in Cyprus then NEO did a VERY good job. Still quite disappointed by the other guy though :S

Hmm interesting. So he's all for merchants accepting Bitcoin via Neobee cards/pos system. He's half way there. Guess MtGox incident gave him some pause since he name dropped it.

he dropped silk road too Smiley
