bitsimple.com and tangible cryptography websites have both been down for 2 days.
??  gone?  or what's the deal?

Sweet!

AAPL

Fair and just as it may be, it's never going to happen. There is no way they have enough previous generation hardware to accommodate that, which is probably why they are offering the 25%.

I am disappointed with the delay as I am batch 1 also, and no, it will probably not fully compensate, but we all know when you are buying a preorder of a product that's still in development.. a delay is not exactly a surprise.

That would be nice!
I'm pretty much "all in" with BA right now.  I'm not freaking out yet, but definitely starting to stress a little.

Hmm well that blows then.   So what, the boards had to be fixed elsewhere at the buyer's expense? Or how was that handled?

Thanks

Actually I feel a little better about BA after reading the last dozen posts.

It sounds like it was a complete cluster-f--k at the time, but:

1- they did right by the customers in fixing all the boards

2- they definitely aren't going to make that mistake again

3- the previous mistake was probably rather costly to them, and undoubtedly chewed into margins and overall production, productivity, and sales. After that, they were still around and probably learned a hell of a lot in the process. During it, they communicated and dealt with the shitstorm.

Now with all that having been said, BA, how are my orders coming along?   :-)

EDIT: I also consider the other recent communication a very positive reflection on the company -- where they came out and said, "hey we can't make this hash at the rate we want at the power level we wanted, but we're making good on our word by dropping the clock rage and bumping the number of cores." 

That is a company I want to be involved with. Transparent and doing right by the customer.

Really? Is HashFast really shipping???

Hello,

Do you have them on order directly from BA?

How would we handle the transfer?

Thanks
Andrew

Here is your "out". I will lock thread.

Martin, where is the email reply from my company that you were going to post?   Or do you only post replies that confirm your hunches?

The real world extends outside of this chat room, and posting baseless accusations is slander that can cause me real-world harm, and we can pursue it as such even if you are in Edmonton.

Only one of my loans is due next week, and two of them are currently costing me nearly nothing in terms of Btc as they were pegged to usd when bitcoin price was lower.

I do intend to repost my consolidation loan request in some form or another, and it would really appreciate it if you would not interfere. It is not ponzi, it is refinance.

Good night

I'm trying to figure out if there's an opportunity there, and if it's scalable at all. Specifically, if it's possible to borrower longer term and lend out short. This market is exactly backwards from the standard lending markets.   In most lending markets -- treasuries, mortgages, auto loans, corporate bonds, shorter terms have lower interest rates than longer terms do. That's how banks make most of their money -- borrow short and lend long.

But on this Btcjam it does not seem to be like that -- the longer term loans -- not the loan REQUESTS, but the ones that are actually funded -- tend to have cheaper rates than the shorter ones. I think the reason for this is that only those who have established a solid repayment history are the only ones that ever get funded on the longer terms, regardless of what the rate is. 

So for example it seems common to be able to borrow at 15% for a month (astronomically high by any normal standards) but then lend several times at 10-15% or higher in a week. This is even more exaggerated because many borrowers will do stupid little loans at high rates and then repay them immediately to build rep -- so many times a 7-day loan will be repaid in a day but with full interest. From that point of view there is appears to be a profit opportunity, but the question is if the defaults can be made low enough to have it net positive. And if all that works out, can it be scaled up enough to be worthwhile of the time spent.

Honestly I don't know how you're supposed to tell who's going to pay and who is going to scam. I did some tiny investments on there too (lending to others), and it's really hard to "guess". A couple that I thought for sure would screw everyone paid up decent amounts on time, and a couple that looked solid walked away without another word.  

I know most here won't lend anything without full collateral. Tomatocage, I gave u a hard time about it, but I don't know a better way.. not really. My day job is the business of lending, and we verify the crap out of everything about everyone, and still once in awhile get screwed -- occasionally out of fraud, but more often out of circumstances -- somebody loses a job, for example.

Yep I know anyone can see the history. And yes I also know that I took smaller rep loans initially. The thing is, both scammers and non-scammers alike have very similar profiles initially, with taking small rep loans at first. There's no way around it... nobody gets any loans if they don't start that way.

I didn't cancel the 5 BTC loan it expired, unfunded, most likely due to your assistance. As I had posted in that loan request, the main point of bit was to refinance two other ones, rolling it forward.

You mention that i have another $3000 loan that is requesting funding , unless I am misunderstanding your meaning, but that is not the case at least not yet.

Well it should also probably be an example for people accusing others of scamming with no basis other than a hunch.

Vod I see you contacted my company and I also heard that they have replied to you. Perhaps you could post that reply here as well for all to see.

On a hunch you badmouthed me both here and on the other site, and put this "trust -11" whammy on my profile here, and I have not harmed anyone. 

Thanks,
Andrew

Yes obviously you would be taking an incredible risk with having more than 100% collateral in LTC.   

The company is not guaranteeing my loans, my income FROM the company is why they will get paid even if things go to crap.

I will post that on jam in a sec.

Yep that's me.

Hello,
