I was originally dead set against bitfunder, and planned to claim my shares at btct. the more I see look at each one, i see that btct is a bunch of drama.
all over the place people using it to post msgs against each other, vote each other. first I was checking the website alot, to see what was there. then as things grew, so did the drama, I got tired of trying to use the votes as a usefull reference. almost all traded assets have some kind of negative mark, mud slung in their face, and its like getting opinionated scammer votes to me. at least on the forums before someone or something is branded ppl cant just throw numbers on their profile and leave them there for everyone to see regardless of what its for. i saw bakewell move from btct to bitfunder, and if it was for the votes as a reason, i can understand pushing to do it without shareholder concent. do i agree with his holdingshares thing no? but even he has picked up and walked away from the drama even if he had to take a rep. hit to do it and has not even fought with anyone over it to try to be very adult about it, he let people say what they wanted, and that was that. that was a big price to pay i think for doing it, but people did not dump his asset. i held off on claiming my shares of gsdpt until recently to see how things turned out, and honestly, the only thing I coudl say about bitfunder in the mean time is that while I was not happy to setup with weexchange at first, it's actually pretty nice and very happy with it. i had a simple question, nothing urgent and posted a support ticket on bitfunder and had a response pretty quickly. the irc was nice to be able to just join for a few minutes and talk to people about things. and during all the drama.. all I saw on bitfunder, was focused growth. not only was it adding features people had requested, but i noticed that they were also adding features that were being requested of btct as they were being requested, and even without the drama, never made a big thing about out. things like the the dividend reinvest, and listing if the assets can increase shares on their own, or move with or without votes. I finally made my decision. it was pretty clear. i have quite a few share of sdice via gsdpt, erik is a great guy and very respectable. I have no problems paying terra for all the time and effort he is putting in to make sure i got my shares and dividends that was not an expected party of his duties and now balancing books for two exchanges. he has a proven track record as being someone trustworthy. i would rather pay a little to know I am in good hands, then go with some unknown or pay a bunch of money to trade on a place that has a few stocks and possibly higher chance of insulting me then helping me if i say the worng thing. also I am a buyer. i dont generally sell unles its a great deal. with bitfunder, i have paid almost nothiing to buy thousands of shares to earn divs off of since i only have to pay if and when i sell. I love the price being lower on bitfunder, I have bought quite a few shares at excellent price, it just adds as another reason why i have enjoyed it since. and i can actually say that for once in a long time now i have enjoyed playing with btc and assets again. interactive graphs are fun to zoom in and get details, the data tables are nice and dont just cut off with limits or span the entire page with all of my history. why are the shares so cheap? it could be any number of the things listed above. terras cut, bitfunder ppl selling off,dont think so because its more buys than sells,so it is not ppl who do not like bitfunder. i dont care, its a good and more fair price to me. also the best thing is that if ihave enough shares and wanted to go direct to mpex i think terra would doa transfer for me at no cost. isnt that the point? buy low in bulk, sell high in bulk, win!

Eh, I know there was confusion. I had to deal with the confused users personally. Wink

Your post is really hard to read, and not particularly on topic. Happy to discuss in another thread if you'd like.

Cheers.

nice comback.

topic is why shares are so cheap.

a. people have said things like confusion over which to choose.

two buttons. btct and bitfunder. thats not very hard.
if they are that confused get off the internet.

confusion of why they have to go to one of the sites to pick the other? provided with the instructions. are you confused?

my reasoning that it is probably not confusion of site. in the end, what does that even have to do with the price??? off topic ?
i accidentally chose the wrong exchange! oh noes! i had better sell and sell CHEAP!... stop taking shots. you look like an ass.

b. people say there was a mass liquidation
coinbr charts compared to trade prices are within reason.

c. people have stated due to wanting to simply liquidate and choosing bitfunder over btct
either way, the shares would have just been liquidated on either exchange, and they would not have cared. dont you wish you had set it up? probably would not worried about confusion for bitfunder users.

d. my personal experience with the gsdpt shares, choosing an exchange, my trading, and the price it is effecting directly. and my opinion of why more people have chosen bitfunder of btct.

if you are unhappy that people are telling their opinions and experiences of your site outside of your thread where it is relevant and afraid other people will see it, then it is your problem. you do seem to however like take any shot you can get at others in their threads.

^^^ btw, that is still ontopic, as an ongoing reasoning on why i chose my shares on bitfunder, and many others in regards to the confusion which is probably really just you confused why more people are not choosing btct. in fact, thats a response to you comment to the topic.

was this an easier read?
