If he did spend the majority of the stolen coins on personal expenses, like mortgages, knowing who he is and where he lives will be very important.

I don't know.  I just want my coins back.  At this point I couldn't care less if it was ZT or Burt Reynolds.  But I would tip my cap to Burt Reynolds.

The phone number listed on nameterrific.com and the number Zhou said was his, is also listed on the whois for the domain.

I see nothing unusual about that domain contact info. Someone registered it many years ago, it's been sold and transfered a few times and at the moment "our" Zhou owns it - as shown by the DNS info and phone number which just reflects the current state. Very common for popular domain names (and Zhou Tong is a common name - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhou_Tong_(footballer) ).


What exactly are they trying to match up that uyou are saynig does not? All the last 10 posts or so with domains and such are all owned or were by OUR ZT..

No, I used archive.org and Occam's razor. If the content differs vastly it's likely due to different owners.

(And the QQ number on the page in 2004 doesn't match "our" Zhou's, the photos don't match etc - http://web.archive.org/web/20050307110628/http://www.zhoutong.com/ )

Zhoutong Machinery.

Is he an adult, instead of a child as he says?
Does he run a machinery business?

Edit:  I think he is shitting his pants right now cause he used 80,000 bitcoins to pay off all his families mortgages, and now he can't get the money back!

Dude, how do you know Zhou Tong over there isn't like Brad Smith here?

Because the phone number is the same.

only thing i don't get why sell and or ruin business that started to generate supposedly over $40k a month in profits

I'm eagerly awaiting Tihan's answer:

In the internal email dump from genjix you are quoted as having written the following:

Quote from: tseale
Speaking of that, Zhou I wanted your thoughts on the financial situation.
As you know, Bitcoinica went from cranking out 6-figure profit one month to
a flatline the next. I covered most of the deficit from the hack on the
assumption Bitcoinica profits would quickly fill in the rest. What's
happened instead is a consistent equity leak that has remained unresolved
for two months. We've gone from being short 40k to now being short 88k.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1039996

Has the reason for that been accurately explained? That is, did Bitcoinica ever - provably - profit to the degree that Zhou claimed it did when you bought it?

One interesting line of thought is that the only one who's ever made a profit from operating Bitcoinica is Zhou, and if the service didn't make a profit from trading the only other explanation is that the "profit" came directly out of user deposits. To cover that up regular "hacks" were simply needed.
