hi JD,

i just "invested" almost 1 btc in your bussiness, since i don't think btc will double the price at witch i bought it (almost 220$) until the next difficulty (2015?).

Now, i looked your posts, and i will not be a smart person if i didn't warn you.

1-Security: 2FA everywhere, yubikey/google authenticator, included lastpass for random 14 characters different password everywhere, no java or flash! or use different browsers/pcs. Even i had problems with some virus after installing office from dubious sources.

2- Trading, do you use a trading bot... i will sugest don't have all the coins at mtgox. Use armory to do offline wallet, put half there, use truecrypt to store the keys and backup the file to usb/dropbox.

3-The price of your stock, if btc goes up more than what you pay in dividends, your stock will go down, it's a paradox...

I will suggest paying your dividends in [insert alt currency] or in buy-backs like you are doing now, but very slowly, just put a giant buy at .005 this month, at .0055 next month, and it has to continue forever, at even smaller increments of 5 to 10% . i see a problem here since there is not enought decimals at cryptostocks...

4-The alt-coins, don't be fooled by the troll-box of btc-e, they are there just for trading purposes of the russian-alt-mining-schemes , this people, know for their pump & dump, will deceive you into putting your btc in them, do not do it: many alt-coins are flawed, proned to 51% atack, controlled by small group of people, and are NOT in development, meaning if a flaw is found in bitcoin it can be fixed but this are just copy-paste coins that don't even bothered to change the readme's txt. Read the real specs of everycoin, PPC unlimited, DVC as a reward for "developers" means they will be exchanged to btc asap! , while other hugely controled NVC per example is too dificult to setup the miner so even a computer technician will have problem doing it , Use only to short/arbitrage between them & btc.

5-Remember all coins are produced at a steady rate, (example 25*6*24=3600btc per day!) if there's no more money in their price should decline, in this regard mtgox and the miners/large coin holders have the key.

TL,DR,
In this forum nobody will blink an eye if you lose all your coins in mtgox, your computer was hack, you send your coins to a scam website etc etc.
So take care.

Thanks for your words.
