They have $3500 of my money and are refusing to pay. Probably because they spent it.

Yeah, that's what bugs me too, I asked for a refund in Jan 2014, BEFORE the Gox issue.

P.S. Congrats on going with CoinTerra.

Warning: ActM / VirtualMining is not giving me my refund after 2 months!

I have applied for a refund and their support just ignores my emails and messages, I have also contacted Ken to no avail.

I also gave them a heads up that I will go public if they do not respond to my emails. That did not work either.
So unfortunately I have had to go public with the hope I get my refund. I was the sixth order in the queue, plus I have 10k+ shares that are stuck in limbo too. I am basically all in on ActM and quite worried at this stage.

Please can someone help me.

I have 5 shares stuck on BitFunder that friedcat and the guys at AsicMiner won't transfer to Havelock for me.

I first emailed friedcat on the 11'th of November 2013, and emailed the various email addresses provided to import my shares various times.

The only reply I got was that I needed a bitcoin address to do the transfer which I provided. That was a month ago with no word since.

I have spoken to Ukyo from BitFunder who responded that he has send the list of users who have unclaimed shares to AsicMiner.

Please can someone help me het my 5 shares onto an exchange, preferably Havelock?

Thanx

Me too.

Re: How does market manipulation work?

So how do you spot this behavior going on?  Huh

You need to watch the order book very closely.


I'm interested in the following:

When and under what circumstances does selling induce a sell-off? What is the difference to regular market sells? How does it turn the sentiment around?

Would you say seeing many arbitrary small bids to buy and sell is a sign of manipulation. e.g. on ActM seeing many bids for <100 shares?

Basicly yes. It similar to the possibility of USD/BTC rate manipulation (due to same bid/ask system).
One can manipulate market if he has enough shares - e.g. somebody holding few hundreds of AM shares could destroy the price on BTCT by dumping them, then buying back from panic sellers (if he is lucky). The same goes for big BTC whales manipulating Gox.

EDIT: also you can spice the sell-off with some nice DDOS.

DDOS?! So sneaky! So how many shares do I need to do this? *Jokes

But seriously, how many ActM shares would it take to manipulate the price? I have a feeling it is happening right now but I am not sure what to look for. What ways are there to spot if a stock is being manipulated?

Also, how many shares does it take to become a "whale"?

Hi Guys

I am referring strictly to how stock exchanges are manipulated via bids, not to media manipulation via forums, blogs, etc.

From what I understand is that manipulators start selling their stock at cheap prices in small batches at a time, and over a period the price starts dropping, non-manipulators see this and start to panic by selling their stocks cheaply too,  then the manipulators buy the stock when the price is down. Amiright?

Max Keiser predicts the price at $100k to $1mil per BTC. This is based on the premise that BTC grows to 1% of global Forex size.

but valueing them 4x+ as high as LC, even though LC will start running very soon now, is nothing but ridiculous. I say once people realize this huge imbalance, ActM will drop and LC will go up.

It is 4x the value because 28nm chips have a higher ROI potential, than Labcoin's 130nm. Given that both companies succeed in their goal and ship their products on time.

28nm already online?

Nah, I was being hypothetical: "Given that both companies succeed in their goal and ship their products on time."

You may consider refund option as well.

Neither BFL or ActM do refunds.

What should I do with my pre-orders?
by

on 29/08/2013, 10:52:02 UTC
Hi Guys

I am trying to figure out what my options are being that none of my pre-orders are gonna be mining profitably as it stands now on mining.thegenesisblock.com.

I have 2 pre-orders:
1. April 2013 pre-order 25GH/S BFL
2. July pre-order 256GH/S VirtualMiningCorp (ActiveMining)

Should I wait and mine hoping the $/BTC exchange rate increases to make it profitable again? I am thinking that if it is so much harder to mine, then scarcity will increase, which means the cost of BTC will increase too.

Should I sell my pre-orders? (And if so would you buy them from me as I am selling?)

Should I lay back and just accept the fact that my ass is about to get a shafting?

Please advise.
