I wasn't involved in bitcoin back then but I was aware of what he's done after a bit of research.

Looks like justice has been done & I don't think anybody will miss him whilst he's away, nobody here will any way.

This is a really good thing.
It shows that you can actually get in trouble for defrauding people out of bitcoin.
So many scammers know that they can stay anonymous on the internet, and transfer some BTC to an anonymous address.
It's very easy to scam some money in this area, so its no wonder so many fraudsters are attracted to Bitcoin.
At least one of them got caught and got more than a slap on the wrist.

This is definitely a positive step taken by US martial in order to curb the inhumane actions done by him.
Those promised high returns to those who backed bitcoin-related investments worth nothing to him now.

He is similar to Sergei Mavrodi. But more intense.
Look at how he bought a BMW with $220,000. Just pathetic! Angry

- min deposit is 50 btc, what is the max deposit that you could still afford to pay interest on?
- is there any minimum term, or can i just deposit for 1 day, take my 1% and withdraw?
- does interest compound daily, or only accrue on the principle?

thanks.

* He transferred at least 150,649 Bitcoin to his personal account at an online Bitcoin currency exchange*
