q: We paid for insurance and it is time for that insurance to do it's contractually obligated function.


a: YOU ARE AN IDIOT AND BANNED FROM MY THREAD

I literally just saw this happen. How long until Usagi gets the scammer tag? NYAN may not have been a complete scam, but CPA most certainly seems to have been an outright fraud.

I find it funny that "free speech" only seems to apply to "stuff that I like" and not "stuff I don't like." 

What policy?  Anyone is allowed to post here.  Hell, they still let Atlas post here.  You clearly don't have the power to ban users in this specific thread, and you have zero authority to compel them to stop.  

If you don't want people casting light on your insurance scam, don't run one.

just in case

Its kinda redundant if glbse doesnt come back 

It says your value may decline. No shit einstein, thats only a worry for CPA shareholders who are already screwed anyway. Where does it say a "lage (sic) or widespread default" discharges you of your liabilities? Particularly regarding Nyan.A.

Anyway, if GLBSE is closing down due to the SEC, you have far bigger worries.


Common violations that may lead to SEC investigations include:

Misrepresentation or omission of important information about securities  Check
 
Manipulating the market prices of securities Check
 
Stealing customers' funds or securities

Insider trading (violating a trust relationship by trading on material, non-public information about a security) Check
 
Selling unregistered securities. Check

And bitcoinrs put 200+ BTC in Nyan. One loop after another. Small wonder if things go downhill they suddenly come crashing down. Dont you guys understand what you are doing?


That someone is you, right?
And for the record, I  do expect you to sell your personal stuff if thats what it takes to meet your contractual obligations that dont mention a "void if GLBSE prices go down" clause. FFS you run an "insurance" company, the only point of having an insurance is for when things do go down. An insurance company that takes premiums when there is no problem, and doesnt pay out when there are problems isnt an insurance company, its a scam.


IF GLSBE closes I expect a claim code system as with Goat. So you will know where to send the coins you owe to your investors. And why do you say "if"? You have for ~350 BTC worth of hardware on your NAV sheet. Surely you mean "when"? You could just cancel the order and refund the people who paid for it in the first place.

Usagi owns some shares in  BitcoinRS for NYAN.B and if its any consolation one of our dogs just won lol.

If all else fails there is at least one thing not related to bitcoin where NYAN made a difference, and still holds shares even if glbse goes down. We have enough dogs to keep going for the next 3-5 years without any more investment, maybe longer.

You got drunk, I don't care, and I agree that it'd be a pretty weak point to attack you on. I figured the drunken post might be not be one of your proudest moments but I know you do hold your companies in high regard and that's admirable, I'd be more worried if you didn't.

The current plan is for GLBSE to come back up at some point, what happens is up in the air still since no official news has been published. We all just have to wait and see. And while GLBSE is down there's nothing to be done about any of it anyway, that's not the worry.

What I'm wondering is (provided GLBSE is functioning as expected of an exchange) when can CPA provide the appropriate bidwall for NYAN.A? Or is CPA not currently able to provide for a bidwall at this time?

While this sort of thing will probably be embarrassing and in the long term and I'm sure Usagi isn't particularly excited about that post, who cares? I know I've been on the forums drunk before, it can be quite fun and makes a lot of the bullshit much funnier (I personally ended up going off on someone spamming links in the pyraming thread). That being said six hours (per timestamps) is plenty of time to sober up, worst case is he's got a hangover at this point. That being said I'd say it does mean he gives a shit about his investors and realizes that the situation sucks no matter how you look at it.

GLBSE might end up like GMail, there's probably going to be a very long beta and/or "beta" period. To keep from going too far off-topic, the best thread I've seen so far is at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/re-glbse-situation-summary-officially-closed-115467. Large upgrade/change, botched update, or FSA (British version of the SEC) looking into it and there are conversations with lawyers happening.

To rephrase my earlier question and avoid Guruvan's post. When do you believe that CPA or yourself will be able to maintain a consistent bidwall at 0.99 for NYAN.A again? As CPA is an insurance company and not an investment company the value of the markets should be of little consequence. Also, do you believe the interconnectedness of your companies is affecting their abilities to function?

GLBSE has had wording on the main page that it is in beta as long as I have been using it.

With this GLBSE thing, I hope that I'm still a shareholder in a few days.

I'm starting to think we should treat the site as though it is in a sort of beta.

I'll just leave this here. Glad to see you've quickly recovered recovered from your three wine spritzers, usagi.

How solvent are your companies if you've lost your life savings and your wife is going to kill you?

Actually he's trying to make a solid point about FZB valuation which was an active discussion here already - there is significant risk involved with depending on twitter as a business model. This is just a good example of how your local rules are just causing you to make an ass of yourself at the expense of yourself and your investors.

That being said I'd agree with others that the whole reason to buy insurance from CPA - a distinct company on paper - is to provide an appropriate bidwall for NYAN.A. In now way is the market supposed to play into that. CPA is an insurance company who is now being asked, and required by contract, to provide their services. Is there a reason CPA cannot make good on it's contract?

Because Twitter advertising is a waste of time, money, and energy. IMO, .02 is FMV for FZB.  unless you've got some earning numbers to support it. Further, Twitter isn't the most reliable when it comes to operating through their platform....they tend towards arbitrary rule changes (sound familiar, usagi?) Finally, basing a company completely off another company's platform, fixing all your revenue to that other company's performance, and continued production of the product yours is based off of, and contued permission/potential for you to actually base your product off theirs is a recipe for a short lived business. Twitter could kill FZB in an instant with a rule change, or in other ways changing their platform. There's plent of example of, say MSFT doing this to companies. I said most of this (to Erik) when FZB first came out. It's still true now. If I needed one more thing: Erik seems to move quickly onto new projects - I don't suspect FZB will be much improved over its life.

In fact, I wouldn't even pay .02 for it. It's done nothing but fall since IPO. (usagi's favorite kind of issue to invest it!! )

Thats not an answer, its a rant.
You sold Nyan.A as a zero risk asset with the explicit guarantees of NAV and .99 rebuy.
It doesnt matter that you say you are trying when in reality, you are doing neither. NAV has fallen well below 1 BTC and there is no bid wall. There is an askwall and I expect it will be gone in a few days replaced by the bidwall you promised in your contract.

As for the reason why people are selling, in case you are interested, it has nothing to do with "trolls", it has everything to do with you proving yourself dishonest and or incapable. Its clear to me the CPA guarantee is absolutely worthless, NYAN.A is not worth what you say it is,  and now that you are closing  Nyan.B for a price far above its actual NAV, it doesnt take a genius to figure out where this is headed.

Hint: its not above 1 BTC.

Since this is being asked repeatedly I assume you have prepared a statement?

These two sound like a good start.

Ok, I will ask them on other people's behalf.

How many of those 1100 shares were bought back from the public via GLBSE as opposed to bought back at "RMV" from your own companies via private transfer? 

Where is the contractually required bidwall at .99 for NYAN.A ? Is CPA still honouring its contract for NYAN.A ?

Others have touched upon this already, but the answer is that it doesnt matter. If it interests you, you should ask the people selling why they are selling at that price, but the price is not what you think its worth, nor is it what you ask, its what a fool is willing to pay. Ever since the IPO,  no fool has been willing to pay anything like IPO price. The biggest fool right now is bidding 0.012 and for almost no shares. The only real volume is at a 10x lower price even.  100x what you say is a fair price. 1000x what you had in your books
You might want to think about that for a second.
