I have participated in the ICO. I see on Twitter that that Referral links are being issued. How do I obtain one and what are the terms for referrals? Thanks.

Could you all be so kind as to only discuss the Distribution of bitcoin wealth by owner here, and use any or all of the "Distribution of bitcoin wealth by address" threads for that purpose.

The "distribution by address" data does not give any useful indication about the owners, or if you believe it does, start with explaining how the situation has changed from the first 20 pages when it did not. Smiley

I would be interested in your comments about this new model of the distribution of Bitcoin wealth.

A couple of people have suggested I have been posting my doubts here about WCX in bad faith.

I referred 63 people to sign-up. It is in my financial interest that WCX works.

It won't. I just hope nobody I introduced to WCX paid any money in the pre-sale.

You urgently need someone (me) to come to Moscow and take over all technical writing and documentation and marketing materials. You have a great idea but you are incapable of expressing it. Contact me at @BambouClub on Twitter.

I just paid another 5 eth into the pre-sale.

Fran Strajnar on Twitter. It was falsely claimed he was managing escrow of pre-sale payments.

"I have removed my association and will not escrow this project."

I am interested in this project and have made a contribution to the Pre-sale.

I was sceptical however about the pretty aggressive marketing of it with a too rich Referral programme.

But I am coming round to the idea that it is a genuine project with great potential.

Here is the patent registration of the KeyCAPTCHA system by Nicholas Prays, the founder of STEX.

I have invested and made some referrals but when I check my bounty / referral balance at https://stex.exchange/stexup/ and enter my ETH address and click Show the Balance it says:

STeX Up! statistics is coming soon...

Not impressed. Will continue referrals if this is explained to my satisfaction.

Re: [ANN] [PRE-SALE 30% BONUS] MASS Token - Masternode And Staking Service

Thanks for providing the links to BitcoinTalk and Reddit confirming you offered payments refunds for a short period. I was travelling over those three days and missed that at the time.

I like the concept of the project very much. I follow @notsofast on Twitter who compares a masternode of Dash to a piece of Manhattan real estate. If your project can enable retail investors to participate in Dash and other significant masternodes then that is a great business plan.

I remain concerned by the risk that the SEC might interpret the MASS token as a security. And I would appreciate an answer to that point.

The first I heard about a refund was when Mass declared the window was closed.

They never mentioned a refund before that. Not on Twitter. Not on Email to me. Not on Bitcoin Talk.

https://twitter.com/MASSToken/status/892082829017964545

The token pays a dividend and qualifies as a security under the Howey Test. Their lawyers know this.

They took no steps to exclude American citizens in the pre-sale.

Please someone from Mass contact me and I will provide my details for a full refund of 40 ETH.

I am not interested in anyone's opinions about this.

Guy who committed 40 ETH here and not happy.

Someone said:

They offered refund on bct, twitter, email, telegram. I'm pretty sure that gave us all the opportunity we need.

Please show links for offer of refund on BitcoinTalk and Twitter. There were no such offers.

I received no email with offer of refund.

I am not on Telegram.

When was the refund window opened? Was there an odfficial announcement about its opening?

I like the idea of your project but I am now spooked:

a. All pre-sale payments might have been stolen but for actions of a White Hatter
b. Now, after the pre-sale, you are seeking legal advice about the legality of the pre-sale and ICO of a token that pays a dividend.

Please re-open the refund window.

I saw on Twitter that Mass are making some manual refunds from the pre-Sale.

How can I apply for a refund?

I believe in the project but the future is uncertain with the SEC report on ICOs and I want to control my risks.

Thanks.

Re: [2017-02-02] Nigeria: An In-Depth Look at Using Bitcoin in a Currency Crisis

To @cr1776

Yes, inflation in Nigeria is currently 80%.

Source: https://www.cato.org/research/troubled-currencies

Nigerians can only protect real wealth against that with USD or possibly Gold or Bitcoin.

But the beauty of the scheme to finesse false official USDNGN FX rate explained in the Bitcoinist article that I wrote is that the Receiver of the remittance wins by 50% over official rates with a constant Bitcoin price. Does not depend on Bitcoin price going up.

In summary:

Remit $100 to Nigeria and there are the amounts in Nigerian Naira the recipient receives:

Bank Wire NGN 32,000
Western Union : NGN 33,750
PayPal: Cannot received fund via PayPal in Nigeria
Bitcoins: sell at LocalBitcoins.com Nigeria: NGN 47,100
Cash USD: NGN 49,500


Cash Dollars convert to the greatest amount of local Nigerian currency but there remains a problem: How does the expatriate Nigerian deliver physical cash dollars to his family in Nigeria?

Using Bitcoin is a close number 2 in terms of the total return, but does not encounter the problem of physically transporting currency to the destination.
