He's an outlier. Would you like hundreds of links to people who made the mistake of not being concerned about scammers? How about Pirate, who was so trusted as to have an OTC rating in the several-hundreds?
I didn't say I wasn't concerned about scammers. If dooglus ends up being a scammer, then I assume responsibility for my loss because I chose to trust the wrong person. There are ways to reduce the risk, I just don't think raising the commission accomplishes this, and dooglus being a scammer is not the only risk that investors are assuming.
My initial quote was:
I'm more worried about someone figuring out where he lives and stealing the computer that contains the offline wallet.
That is
not what you should be concerned about...
... thus implying that you should be more concerned of a scam than a theft, especially since doog uses a cold wallet.
I wouldn't be investing any BTC with him if getting scammed was my main concern.
Another possibility: What if the authorities decide his site is illegal and decide to confiscate the computer with the offline wallet? Are investors protected from such a scenario?
I still think theft is the most probable scenario.
Another possibility: What if dooglus accidentally lights every copy of his offline wallet on fire simultaneously? Are investors protected?
There are ways to protect from this, yes.
I can only speak for myself. But, the reason I haven't invested more is because of physical security concerns, not because I'm worried about getting scammed by dooglus.
Are you a betting man? I have some odds you might want to look at.
No. I am an investor though. Every bitcoin investment requires an element of trust. I invest in individuals that I consider to be competent and trustworthy and spread the risk accordingly. If I was worried about everyone being a scammer, I'd just put my BTC in a paper wallet and let them sit.
