Jobadiah “Joby” Weeks has plead guilty to two counts of BitClub Network related fraud.
As per the terms of a plea agreement reached with the DOJ, Joby Weeks has pled guilty to conspiring to offer and sell unregistered securities and tax evasion.
I don’t recall specific figures pertaining to Weeks’ tax evasion being included in his original BitClub Network indictment.

As per the plea agreement;


One can imagine Weeks’ anti-government beliefs and use of cryptocurrency played a significant role in him dodging taxes.
The two counts of fraud Weeks has pled guilty two carry consecutive statutory prison sentences of up to five years each. A statutory monetary penalty will also be applied.

The plea agreement also requires Weeks to pay restitution to BitClub Network victims.

Pending Weeks’ satisfying the terms of the plea agreement, the DOJ will not pursue any further BitClub Network or tax fraud actions. This includes dropping the wire fraud count in Weeks’ indictment.
Week’s plea agreement was accepted by the court on November 5th.
On November 6th bond was set at $2 million dollars. To secure his release, four properties in the US belonging to Weeks and family members have been offered as surety.

Pending Weeks providing pre-trial services with a travel itinerary and a custodian arranging to travel with him from New Jersey to Colorado (presumably a family member), Weeks will be released to home incarceration with location monitoring.
Sentencing has been scheduled for March 17th, 2021.
Weeks’ guilty plea brings the number of BitClub scammers who have pled guilty to three. Programmer Silviu Catalin pled guilty in July. Promoter Joe Abel pled guilty in September.

The DOJ’s case against ringleaders Matthew Brent Goettsche and Russ Medlin continues.

Really?

CoinClarity is another account from nutildah and behind is the same person.

who is this guy calling NotSoFast a Stupid https://twitter.com/CyrusEfx/status/1248823650016346112
and Bryce Weiner a scammer https://twitter.com/CyrusEfx/status/1247840673245450240
And then posting a link to nutildah scam accusation thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5239328


Looks like nutildah got lazy and just made the mistake to uncover his identity.

Busted!!

Just want to demonstrate that at one point I was willing to give TAO a chance:


I really was hoping he would turn things around here, but he didn't, just a slower burn while engaging in the same 'ol tactics. As was evidenced by his fallout with Hakeem Draper and the ODB estate, he apparently lacks the capability to act honestly and in the interest of anyone other than himself.

That being said, many (most) honest projects are suffering right now, but let's not confuse TAO with them. We can just hope he doesn't try to start fresh with a new scam.

I paid for the Copper membership with the funds we have at 18fyEQXaZQgCbNoE5Qjs6W7Pnqc9Yp4PQD so I kindly request let me defend myself and the reputation of the organization I founded, own and manage.

This thread was highly educational. It will be very interesting to see how Tao plays out.

So he has lobbied and met with lawmakers with direct power over the cryptocurrency industry. If he is the scammer that you and others claim, why would he do this? Why would the SEC take no issue with him and seemingly approve of his conduct?

SCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How to find this crazy australian - Francesco Alibrandi?
He given only 10 days to withdraw, I've discovered down-site yesterday, my 10k USD are lost with this stupid scam-change!!!!!

Please, help anybody!!!

Jeez. I will ask yet again, the question I ask the trolls in this thread which I don't think has *ever* been answered: if Bryce is a scammer, why has he met with and had positive, cooperative meetings with regulators including the SEC as documented multiple times on his twitter feed and in this thread?

We reached out to one of the delisted projects, SafeX. Richard Bate, SafeX advisor, commented:

“Over 18 months ago, Safex was delisted from Cryptopia, apparently due to an “aggressive community member”. The former CTO of Cryptopia, Adam Clark, decided on the spot in Discord to delist Safex because someone (apparently aggressive) asked when the wallets would come out of maintenance.

This seemed like a very unproportional response to a lone member who didn’t represent the entire community. So we did some digging.

Reviewing the known wallets of Safex on Cryptopia, we noticed big trades directly between the hot-wallets of Cryptopia and TradeSatoshi. (The unusual part here is that you don’t deposit to the main wallets on either exchange, you deposit to a personal address so they know how much you’ve deposited.

Our running theory was that someone internally on both sides was attempting to do arbitration trades and managed to lose a lot of Safex in the process.

This was further confirmed later when they didn’t have the Safex to cover the withdrawals of those who had funds left on their Cryptopia account. We saw regular withdrawals from TS [TradeSatoshi] straight to the Cryptopia hot-wallet which co-inside with the timing of when certain members suddenly got their funds back.

The delisting of Safex due to this one community member was a convenient exit strategy so they could save face.

Make it a problem with us, rather than them.

A few months later, we learn that the CTO, Adam Clark, had been “let go” of Cryptopia. My guess is that something was discovered that was bad enough to force one of the founding directors of the company out.

A few months later after that, we find that Adam started working for Trade Satoshi as a Senior Developer.”

“Cryptopia, Tradesatoshi and Assetylene obviously all look alike because I made/designed each platform, so I guess I have a style maybe,” he said.

It is not his job to pump coins for your profits or pay listing fees to get on bigger volume exchanges.

So much for "you are all part of the network".

I know a shitcoin when I see one, and this is one. Do yourself a favor Bryce Weiner, do not get music-companies involved with TAO, they will sue you for every penny you got after they realize you only delivering shit slow shitcoins which don't even trade on real exchanges.

I did take a round to speak with exchange-operators to see if there was anything I could do to get listing, but apparently Bryce Weiner, you have threatened people so badly in the past, that frankly unless you sincerely apologize to them in person, they will never do business with you again ever. And since you are too proud to admit any mistakes, I assume this project will just be another "PandaCoin".

My suggestion - Set up an ICO BuyBack wall and buy it all back, call it a non-profit that failed, Kill the Chain and let us all move on with projects that are more serious and capable then this project will ever be.

That bus on the left seems to go to a much more popular destination:

Quantum Hedge Fund has now roped in Godfrey as their Fund Advisor (alongside other usual suspects). It's either an extreme lack of due diligence on the team's part or just your usual cash grab. Betting the farm on the latter.

Exit scam in 3.. 2...

I can recommend the service CoinClarity is offering here. I requested a proofreading (around 3,000 words) and CoinClarity delievered fast and professional work. Service selected at 11:50 AM and CoinClarity delievered at 5:20 PM.
Would choose it again, good job! 

This one denotes quite a lot in this declaration:
Who gives a crap about blockchain? It’s totally irrelevant in the eyes of a "profit maker".
