This is the wallet of the site owner, as you can see, it has about 983 BTC in it(at the time of this post being written), with a total of 30689 BTC received. I got this address in the chat back in May 11 when scrypt.cc had the data center problem where all of their mining power were shut off and they had to move to a new DC, people somehow found it.

With this amount of BTC, all the owner need to do right now is shut down the site and take all the Bitcoin away, because 983 BTC is around R$697,916(he lives in Brazil) right now, depending on how high BTC to Brazilian Real rises. That is a lot of money by Brazilian standards, the guy could shut the site down and buy a house and/or nice car with that amount of money, but he never did it, the site had been around for more than a year and it is still up and kicking.

This is the cost of living in Brazil, recently updated data:

And this is the average salary of people in Brazil earns:

As you can see, only the highest paying job can last a person a month if they want to live a middle class life, if they got a family, that is a different story. This is only general data, no city within Brazil are specified

We don't know what his actual living condition is, but let's assume that he is renting a 1 room apartment in the city center(R$1174), basic costs(R$206), and internet(R$73), I picked these three because this is what he need to actually manage the site, in a year, he would have to spent
R$17412 just for these three basic things alone, this is only an assumption, because he might have other expenses.

*raises hand*

How do we *know* the site owner lives in Brazil?

I 'assume' it is because you 'assume' it to be true, just like you 'assume' evidence of the scam not ending yet is evidence of it not being a scam.

Do you even logic, brah?
