punkman: "We are sorry for those who have been damaged by this project, but you individually have definitely been damaged far less than we have been damaged. " < did btctalk come up with this yet?
bounce: no, no I don't understand. but I don't think I want to understand either. esp. since I'm all out of drink.
bounce: wtf was up with the montrex drama? get your kickstarter 8x oversubscribed and sue the backers? what?
mircea_popescu: "Because of the damage incurred... Because of the fact that we are being called thieves and con-artists and frauds without having done anything wrong"
mircea_popescu: dat team.
mircea_popescu: "After the events of the last couple of days, we are very disappointed. The kickstarter Montrex project was to help build the Montrex brand. Ultimately, backers destroyed the brand and the reputation of the brand and its team."

mircea_popescu: and the exchange with the panama registration that doesn't exist complied
mircea_popescu: so allegedly an alleged "compliance officer" that doesn't exist made a request (that doesn't exist) to suspend the trading of a supposed company with real assets that don't exist

BingoBoingo: If you lose 88% at anything... How do you continue trying the same approaches that lost you the 88% without at least stopping to take a break?
mircea_popescu: did the neobeeQ compliance officer ask for it ?
