Along with many other accounts, it's locked due to being affected by the 2015 data breach and then sitting inactive for a long time. If he wanted to access it, he'd have to go through the Recoveries team and provide proof that it was his account. And it's not immediately clear to me what proof he would use, since the account never posted a Bitcoin address to use for signing a message, or anything like that.
Ross was looking for an IT professional to hire and provided an email address (
[email protected]), this email address matched Ulbricht's real Gmail account. How about if he sends recovery request thru his valid email address to bitcointalk account recovery team if he wants to regain his altoid account back, will it be possible for him to take over his own account after long years of inactive?
Hello, sorry if there is another thread for this kind of post, but I couldn't find one. I'm looking for the best and brightest IT pro in the bitcoin community to be the lead developer in a venture backed bitcoin startup company. The ideal candidate would have at least several years of web application development experience, having built applications from the ground up. A solid understanding of oop and software architecture is a must. Experience in a start-up environment is a plus, or just being super hard working, self-motivated, and creative.
Compensation can be in the form of equity or a salary, or somewhere in-between.
If interested, please send your answers to the following questions to rossulbricht at gmail dot com
1) What are your qualifications for this position?
2) What interests you about bitcoin?
From there, we can talk about things like compensation and references and I can answer your questions as well. Thanks in advance to any interested parties. If anyone knows another good place to recruit, I am all ears.
