mircea_popescu: ohoho wtf.
mircea_popescu: 1500% beotch :D
mircea_popescu: wasn't it trading at 1.5 earlier ?
mircea_popescu: yup 1mn offered in feb and 4mn offered in march you're right.
mircea_popescu: o, was it february and march ?
mircea_popescu: that ran for march and april iirc.
mircea_popescu: (wherein a specified block was put up and anyone could deposit btc for a set time, after which shares were distributed proportionally)
mircea_popescu: to be perfectly fair tho, that was capital raised to participate in the risky stock allocation at the time
mircea_popescu: was just discussing with BTC-Mining the original etf value, it went out at .1 didnt it ?
mircea_popescu: was earlier a discussion about mpoe.etf
mircea_popescu: ok, this is seriously conspiracy to defraud, this may yet result in jail time.
mircea_popescu: We'd hoped that our offer would both push Bitcoinica to resolve the claims faster, and give them more room for error. If they resolved all the claims within 6 months and paid us an equal pro rata share, they'd have immunity from us. Coincidentally, the amount of funds stolen only 2 days after this offer was made was nearly 100% of what we were owed at the time.
mircea_popescu: wait, WHAT ? were there many complaints of stuck funds ?!
mircea_popescu: Just hoping it won't cause many more people losses.
mircea_popescu: Yea i suppose so, but since there seem to be a lot of people complaining about funds being stuck in intersango i have the feeling they will never get it back now that this is going on.
mircea_popescu: now if its the same cartmell im not so sure, but if it is guy's a pitbulldogorca.
mircea_popescu: specifically the hormel spam case.
mircea_popescu: i don't know the guy personally but i know of him
mircea_popescu: which story ?
mircea_popescu: something tells me this is the end of intersango and the named individuals.
mircea_popescu: http://www.cartmell.co.nz/
mircea_popescu: o boy.
mircea_popescu: THAT Cartmell is sueing intersango ?
mircea_popescu: Cartmell was invited to testify before the United States senate in regards to Internet Governance by ICANN, is the inventor of five issued U.S. patents, led the successful battle against Hormel for the right to include the word "Spam" in trademarks that relate to email services, and is a major shareholder and board member of companies ranging from digital payment services to all-natural zero calorie sodas.
mircea_popescu: course... it doesn't looks like it wants to happen ;/
mircea_popescu: then again, if i manage to get deliverable options already on something that will change.
mircea_popescu: yet, yeah.
mircea_popescu: posh corner coffeeshop in busy metropolitan area style small busines.s
mircea_popescu: well ya 2x, but they also have to pay servers and whatnot. im just saying a coupla mn usd yearly revenue isn't HUGE. it's a small business.
mircea_popescu: if you know about start-ups you know what i mean.
mircea_popescu: that's the main difference, i fully financed both mpoe and its morphing into mpex, not having investors aboard helps tons your position later
mircea_popescu: and i tihnk they're closer to 20 and also, have investment.
mircea_popescu: that's payroll for 2 people but not 20
mircea_popescu: let's do some math tho, at 2mn a month with a .5% fee they clear 10k btc which is 120k usd a month
mircea_popescu: course i think trade volume is sticky in usd more than in btc.
mircea_popescu: so ya maybe it looks better for them
mircea_popescu: but they didn't really have the volume back then
