ThickAsThieves: the PT was always run under the authorization of LMB
velacreations: exactly, MP, how does a fund manager just "quit" without notifying the fund?
ThickAsThieves: mp, the current manager would now be LMB
mircea_popescu: i suppose in this case, since it's stopped trading anyway it's kind-of moot.
psterryl: has there been a hack as some people are suggesting?
mircea_popescu: yes well as general practice, the underwriter of a stock can't just quit, they have to leave the stock to be shepherded by someone else.
mike_c: so you are the one who ran away with shares?? (j/k)
ThickAsThieves: the contract with LMB and our services was officially terminated today, initiated by me
velacreations: that is AM, and TAT clearly says NEOBEE isn't affected
neilol: Jesus - sorry, not speaking for you TAT, didn't realize it was actually a sensitive issue
mircea_popescu: basically what happened here, the cfo ran off with a block of shares ?
velacreations: they were, funny, I am not seeing anything pertaining to NEOBEE in that link
jurov: and subjected to hyperadvanced rectothermal technology
mircea_popescu: so wait... neobee asked havelock to halt trading because *neobee* suspects there's insider trading going on ?
Diablo-D3: velacreations: awhile back, and they were.
mircea_popescu: mike_c that's the asicminer stuff neh ?
benkay: velacreations: see the link of mike_c 's
psterryl: could it be that btcapples guy who did tons of off-market trades between LMB and Havelock?
velacreations: when did TAT step down and why wasn't shareholders notified?
ThickAsThieves: i appreciate the effort, but you do not have facts
mircea_popescu: benkay has it basically. skim while fools flock, delist once it goes to shit, the glbse v2.0

neilol: and to anyone saying TAT is running from this... he stepped down weeks ago
ThickAsThieves: In case any of you missed it, Havelock has shared that "the compliance officer of Neo and Bee Ltd has stated that due to an increase of abnormal activity on the LMB share platform, there may be a high possibility of questionable trading activity. While Neo and Bee Ltd investigate the issue further they have strongly recommended that we halt trading and transfers."
benkay: they skim off trades, and delist when things start looking shady
BingoBoingo: As the asshole who wrote that BitBet my though was havecocks not lasting through the end of the year
pankkake: :). the actual crumbs is talking to itself on the forums quite often
mircea_popescu: kids wanna accounting-fraud their own books (which they don't keep anyway) and woe unto anyone getting in their way. ☟︎
pLambert: wait, we are the same person, pankkake, right? Why am I talking to myself?
pankkake: yeah that made me WTF too
pLambert: And Herp sees the trade stopping as a good thing: "This was probably a good move due to all the manipulation. Spamtroll manipulators had a field day recently while Neo was busy elsewhere." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=529946.msg5956564#msg5956564
benkay: if there were actual btc on the line, the mod who approved it might get a caning
mike_c: i don't think that's the spirit of the bet, but i don't think it matters.
pLambert: yeah, looks like the bet should resolve to "Yes" even for a temporary halt of trading?
mircea_popescu: somehow nobody goes to conferences tro say "hay! we're so fucking retarded, you wouldn't believe!"
mircea_popescu: how the fuck some "company" slash "ceo" that can spend enough to mediabuy a small mediteranean island can't get their corp comms in working order is beyond comprehension.
benkay: let the mods figure it out.
mircea_popescu: not looking terribly good.
mike_c: i don't think temporarily counts, but it sounds like it will be permanent soon to me.
pankkake: cease to be traded… temporarily?
mike_c: 0.13 btc for the taking. http://bitbet.us/bet/762/neobee-orphaned-in-2014/
mike_c: hm. Neobee halts trading, TaT is running from it.. guess this is one is diving into the dead pool.
BingoBoingo: I remember flipping my Wifi'sname back and forth between Skynet and John Conner for some time
asciilifeform: ('NSAShtrafbat' for the culturally literate)
pLambert: TAT, when did you stop running the pass-through?
mircea_popescu: what the hell is this, havelockism ?!
mircea_popescu: so, you were running an asset. why aren;'t you announcing it stopped trading, if it did
benkay: see that's the kinda thing that tars you with the LMB brush, ThickAsThieves
ThickAsThieves: mp, I think all I can really say at this time is that you'd need to contact LMB for more info.
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: You ever start that blag
mircea_popescu: so now ThickAsThieves when exactly did you stop running it ?
bounce: no, the more advanced facebook "hack" variety
mircea_popescu: so actually tat had some sort of ipo-coupon asset (xbond) which ipo-couponed neo, and then he was running the neobee hl asset.
ThickAsThieves: pLambert I'm not clear to line of your questioning as it seems somewhat speculative, but as I mentioned, the relationship from the start was a contractual one between separate parties
BingoBoingo: benkay: Is that php?
mircea_popescu: it's all coming back to me.
mircea_popescu: benkay actually that log link is quite epic.
Apocalyptic: benkay, what's your relation to the paper ?
pLambert: was neobee using TAT as a way to get into the community? I feel like there were scammers that did something similar before?
benkay: you're the one with researchers on staff.
mircea_popescu: well that's what im looking for.
benkay: was not tat originally affiliated with n/b?
pLambert: yes, he was the biggest
mircea_popescu: no, goat part is clear. tat/neobee part
benkay: was goat not a pirate pass through operator?
mircea_popescu: benkay i still don't get what the relation is supposed to have been. just that the guy can't stfu ?
benkay: nobody else is taking those jaeorbs
benkay: tg2: aws only hires the fired
tg2: how is this even possible
benkay: lol "much as goat is not related to pirate"
benkay: although Survant James hit a milestone recently - we now have eight full months of runway in the bank at current rates.
ThickAsThieves: sorry LMB, not Neo, technically
ThickAsThieves: the offering was always under the control of Neo, any role I was a part of was as an independent contractor
benkay: shit i ain't even sufficiently well capitalized to go *into* retirement yet!
benkay: i'm not out of retirement yet, free to troll silicon valley all day.
benkay: i think that i'll pass.
benkay: also twitter fame?
pLambert: is it really a pass-through if the company is running it themself?
ThickAsThieves: LMB would be the only party with power over it
pLambert: then who is the Pass Through Fund Manager now?
benkay: wasn't via me, tho mircea_popescu, was it?
ThickAsThieves: You'll need to contact Neo/LMB or Danny for any other info
mircea_popescu: benkay check it out, @benkay is nao more famous than you are https://twitter.com/Mircea_Popescu/status/449585590187880448
tg2: > The majority of these kinds of homes will rent for $700 per month

tg2: who's sysadmining over there?
mike_c: i get cloudflare errors 75% of the time i try to go to havelock.
mircea_popescu: is simply to describe how pointless and broken it is
mircea_popescu: funny when the first time some webservice is taken seriously by someone
pLambert: "Havelock Investments has been formally informed by the Pass-Through Fund Manager" <-- that guy
pLambert: from direct shares to Havelock
mircea_popescu: pt from where to where ?
pLambert: is ThickAsTheives still the pass-through manager for this one?
mircea_popescu: possibly butthurt over having shed 50% over a week and well... yet another one of those great "half your money in half a year" glbse-style things.
pLambert: I think that is their method of announcement?
mircea_popescu: well they didn't announce it or anything.
pLambert: https://www.havelockinvestments.com/fund.php?symbol=NEOBEE says trading is stopped ☟︎
mircea_popescu: it ticked a minunte ago, what stopped ?
pLambert: what's going on with NEOBEE, why are they stopped trading? ☟︎
