payb.tc triesto sit this out, ignoring anything related to bitcoinmax and changing nicks and all that.
He's been acting very fishy ever since Pirate defaulted and tried to hide every detail of his passthrough. From what I know, he also refused to work together with the officials (SEC). So I'm not sure anymore if it really was a passthrough at all.
I wonder if anybody living in Australia would be willing to act on behalf on Ian's investors and face him to talk about all this (and maybe even file a lawsuit). Ian seems to have ignored a few withdrawal requests before everything blew up. Considering the current BTC value, a bounty from those investors would most likely equal tens of thousands of dollars.
Now that's the real amazing news here. No assasination, no (real, mind you) mob formed, no bouty, nothing ever happened. Except, embarrasingly, the government who stepped in.
But then, now it's kind of pointless, at least with Trendon, as the government takes care now.
With Ian, hmm.. I saw no hard evidence that he did something evil, instead of a simple "did something stupid".
I wonder if there's enough left in the community to form a mob? I doubt it, somehow..
