Sorry, jackg, he most likely didn't use his own money. He basically took the equivalent of 50% of every investment made, including your investment.

Here's some math from the end of my previous long post:

...I ran some numbers using Lines 78-103 of the spreadsheet. Those lines seem to represent the best snapshot of time and activity.

In that snapshot of activity, the scheme took in 2.841 total BTC investments (26 investments)

It paid out 1.4606 BTC in return of capital and interest (15 investments)
(of the 1.4606 total paid out, 1.355 is return of capital and .1056 represents interest paid)

Still has 1.486 BTC of investor capital owing (11 investments)
Still has 0.14235 BTC in interest owing
1.486 + .14235 = 1.62835 owing

1.4606 (total paid out) + 1.486 (investor capital alone owing) = 2.9466 - 2.841 (total investments) = .1056
(Hmmm, .1056 is equal to the total amount of interest actually paid)

In about a month, he basically kept/spent/misused/bad traded/whatever 50% of the investments (~$15,000 at today's value) and threw up a misleading flag to end it.

Ah, I didn't spot that post before. Nice summary Trader.
Still the best thing to do is probably just wait this out and providing he doesn't go back to margining everything again or gambling with it (like the posts he used to make) then we should hopefully see some sort of return.
