Re: Almost 24 hours unconfirmed

... is there any other info on why this is happening?
TL;DR: The network is busy

Long Version:
They say a picture is worth a thousand words... here are two.

The first shows the level of unconfirmed transactions over the last 24 hours... you'll note there has been more than 40,000 unconfirmed transactions almost the entire 24 hours... and it has now reached the 100,000 unconfirmed transaction mark.

The second shows the fee rates being used... Note the highlighted line at 280-300 sats/byte... that indicates there are near 11 megabytess worth of transactions at or above this level at this point in time... that is over 10 blocks worth of transactions... given blocks occur on average once every 10 minutes, it would take an average of 100 minutes for those transactions to all get mined... assuming NO more transactions are added... given the number of unconfirmed transactions has been climbing all day, its safe to assume a LOT of new transactions are being added... most likely with large fees for fast confirmation times.

What fee rate was YOUR transaction at?





Thank you for that that is a great response and very helpful. I paid 500 and 510 sats. Not sure about the ones done by bitfinex.

Hey guys

Can someone please tell me why it's almost 24 hours now and my transaction is still not confirmed?

I know i paid the wrong fee but i am willing to add more just to speed this up.

Can someone tell me what the eta for my transaction to be confirmed?

Transaction id is fb26115545e28a4fd60d9d588ab191bbbbd7a8c41c09c5f74fc8742f6bcb7a67

I'm having the same problem I have sent from Jaxx and Copay and Bitfinex with Jaxx and Copay I sent using the fastest and highest fee option with Bitfinex I don't control the fee. I have multiple transactions well over 50BTC and it has been over 24hrs for some. I see everyone saying to wait and pay a higher fee. I have done both and still nothing is there any other info on why this is happening?

The Legends Room Membership Token Offering Cancelled
All funds raised will be returned to contributors

The Legends Room Membership Token Offering is cancelled and all Ether will be returned to those who purchased the venture’s “VIP” tokens in the digital sale that was launched on Feb. 24, 2017.

Due to the recent circumstances with the change in management and loss of the original proposed venue for The Legends Room, in addition to the lack of information provided, we feel it is in the best interests of the community and the contributors to cancel the membership token offering and return the funds raised.

The Legends Room, a Las Vegas gentlemen's club behind the VIP members token, was unable to provide sufficient evidence supporting documentation to validate claims made, which includes failure to show:

  • A legitimately purchased and owned establishment, which was designated as the venue for The Legends Room club;
  • Signed partnership agreements originally outlined prior to the launch of the sale.

As part of every coin or token offering, Vanbex safeguards participants by holding all contributions in escrow.

Digital currency exchange Bittrex will be conducting the refund process on its exchange. If you contributed through Bittrex please contact them for your refund.

We hope faith in this industry continues to grow and know events such as these have the capacity to cause irreparable harm.

We pledge to continue to improve industry standards in the digital currency and blockchain space which means conducting due diligence to ensure all ventures we align ourselves with are honest, open and in the public’s best interest. The community at-large should always be protected.

The Vanbex Group is not and will no longer be involved with any current or future work or action that comes out The Legends Room venture, or any such affiliated operations.

The current VIP Token contract designating distribution of the digital currency will be invalid. We advise anyone considering this venture in the future to do the proper due diligence to protect their contribution.

Nick Blomgren has made a statement about our actions however this is a false accusation. We have a letter from Nick and the venture’s co-founder Peter Klamka stating that they will be terminating the contract, cancelling the sale and we are to return the funds as we have advised to do multiple times prior to receiving this email and attached letter.

The Vanbex Group always strive for transparency and work to protect the community and contributors in any project that we are involved in.

All inquiries regarding this membership token offering and its cancellation should email k@vanbex.com. Please provide your email address and TXID. All refunds will be processed to the addresses in which sent the Ether. In order to receive your refund you must prove that you are the purchaser by returning the VIP tokens to an address we will provide via email.

Returns can start as early as April 16 when the smart contract ends and the VIP tokens are unlocked.

At a strip club right now to watch the GGG fight! But took Uber since I don't drink and drive. Ok so who gives a fuck about all these posts especially yours? I don't and no one Vegas will. It's fucking Vegas, morons.  It's a strip club. It's bitcoin. It's a startup. And you expect everything to run smoothly from day one???  Uber still fucks up and it has a 70 billion dollar valuation. In the early days, the Amazon website used to go down. It's the early days for bitcoin and my hat is off to those who have the balls to do a deal like this one. If they pull it off and it looks like they will, the positive press for digital currency will be huge. It will change the club business in Las Vegas. Long and strong with the Legends Room. My bracket is off now because I had SMU.

PS: I have no doubt that Centerfolds was sold to the entity behind the Legends Room. I might have the court file. These are often very long lead times to close and see the scenario I described above about the LLC?  You only post what helps your self serving, alarmist, sky is falling, I'm too broke to afford the Legends Room position.  

PPS: Legends Room girl Kenna James http://www.x-art.com/models/kenna is now doing b/g. Cannot wait to meet her.

Nick, thank you for bringing Tia F---nCyrus to the Legends Room. I cannot wait to see this in person. https://twitter.com/Forgirls28/status/843128183507615744

What a fuckin genius, the lawyer dude outta of New York who can't spell couldn't pick USC over SMU but was able to correctly pick Wisconsin over Villanova so to be one of ONLY 200 people in the world to have a perfect bracket going into the second round. That's totally motherfuckin amazing! How amazing, you ask. Well, if you promise to not wet your pants I'll tell you. Promise? Mmmkay, here goes. It's totally fuckin amazing because SMU was knocked out during the first round, but Guy the Lawyer still had a perfect bracket in spite of such over and beyond he correctly picked the nobody-saw-it-coming Wisconsin beating Villanova.

But wait, there's more, no doubt, because this Guy retard has no doubts that The Legends Room will still take over the Centerfolds venue in spite of Team Legends adamantly proclaiming that the new venue will be StripTease, of which Retard Lawyer Guy is already on record in stating that he'll visit the new venue because it'll be just as good during WSOP month. Court records virtually at Guy's fingertips and forthcoming, but first consuming mass quantities of adult liquids and getting cone head is on the agenda, having no regards to those seeking the truth 'bout TLR till St Guy is ready to produce.

On top of all that, Kevin and Lisa's Vanbex brand has successfully been destroyed thanks to Keven with his infinite wisdom remaining onboard the Team Legends train. It almost makes me believe that Vanbex is being paid to represent Legends. Oh wait, they are, because it's Vanbex's business model to pretend to vet entities prior to taking them onboard as clients, then keep them as clients even after the legwork is accomplished by others for free, the resulting blowjob blowback exposing the nefarious actors and its entity.

All you do is talk. Vanbex will be fine we have worked with over 40 companies in this industry and will continue to do good work for all our clients. Not all projects are perfect and as this industry is very new and growing fast there are going to be lots of hurdles along the way. We will always  protect the community and investors with any project we work with if problems do arise like they have with Legends room. As for the due diligence it was done prior to taking on the project and unfortunately circumstances beyond anyone's control happened and now we have to work to handle it the best way possible. No one will get hurt or lose money if the project does not come to fruition. But if it does then I'm sure the people who purchased memberships will enjoy all the club will have to offer.

This business model is one we will see again as we already have multiple other companies exploring this with us. Good luck in your trolling as it seems like you have nothing else better to do in your life.

Hey all so let me clear up some things here. I can understand that a strip club may not be everyone's taste and it seems a bit odd off the start. When we were first approached about this we initially were skeptical. The business model is what is really interesting and what made us want to get involved and since then we have been contacted by multiple membership based business to see if it would work for them.



Pre-sale of blockchain Membership to Drachmae Proof of Concept to Reality.
 
After the successful Proof of concept on the Island of Agistri back in 2015 various verticals was established to disrupt the Travel sector using blockchain technology alongside providing benefits to the Travellers.

Supporting Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ether, Dash, NXT, BitcoinDark, Doge, Transfercoin and Nautiluscoin.
 
Due to specific delays over the past 6 months that held the project going forward this enabled better negotiations with set providers to deliver better services.
 
What was the delays? Same as usual funding!
 
Due the disruption and work that was done in 2015 the project gathered support from channel partners who like the idea of disruption in the travel sector, so Drachmae is now in the position to release of the VIP blockchain membership which is resellable onto another in the similar manner as a private golf club or gym membership.

www.drachmae.club

A business model that's so unique that it was introduced almost a year ago by an entity that parallels Peter Klamka's ventures, e.g. travel and gym sectors.

New ideas and new technologies take some time to get right and to be adopted as we are seeing very clearly in the blockchain and crypto space.

No its a different owner all together. Its now Centerfolds and that was bought by Legends Room. You didn't actually do any due diligence if you had you would have seen this.

Why did you lie and say that Legends Room had bought the venue outright?


No one lied there was a contract in place but due to the recent legal issues they were unable to complete the contract. I have been informed by management that there will be a fully executed LOI with the new venue tonight or tomorrow and the details will be shared so you can verify for yourself.

When we were first approached about this we initially were skeptical. The business model is what is really interesting and what made us want to get involved and since then we have been contacted by multiple membership based business to see if it would work for them.

A digital membership that can be rented, leased and liquidated on exchanges. This is a great model for any membership based business. It is also great for the education and adoption of crypto currency. You now have an audience that would normally not use crypto currency learning how to use it in a real world business and not just on a crypto exchange. You have businesses that would not normally look to crypto or blockchain technology now looking at it as a viable option.

From a business standpoint you get a members base that becomes a free source of marketing for you in the long run as it is in their financial interest to rent the membership if they so choose, word of mouth is always the best referral. You eliminate counterparty risk (Clawbacks) and the traditional 30-90 day hold on funds by excepting crytpocurrency for products and services.

Regarding the latest events surrounding Legends Room:
In the beginning we were hired to build the membership token and do marketing for the project. We were given the relevant documentation to show that this project was moving ahead at the Centerfolds location. Incorporation documents, contracts with the girls, contract with partners, LOI with club owner, contract with Steve Paik and Peter Klamka to put the Bitcoin ATMs in Centerfolds, multiple emails between Steve Paik and Peter Klamka, spoke with Nick Blomgren and Stephan Bonnar.

Multiple people in the community went there and met the team involved and verified this for themselves even the contract with Asa Akira.

Recently we were told the owner of Centerfolds was put in jail (this was shared in this thread) due to that the Legends Room team had to find another venue to move forward. We were told this was an inconvenience but not a problem because many places want their concept in their club along with all their clientele. They are now telling us that the new venue is much bigger and nicer and a better fit for this concept and does not have the bad reputation that has been on Centerfolds since it was the Paradise Club.

We are interested in protecting those that have purchased memberships and have requested all the relevant legal documentation to prove that this is going ahead in this new location. So far we have received all the contracts with their headlining girls, an LOI between Legends Room Las Vegas LLC and 6000 Windmill LLC which also includes the liquor license, Pictures of the new location (inside) verbally they have told us  that they have raised 3 million USD outside of the sale and will be purchasing VIP tokens.

I can understand that others would be concerned about all of this. If you have purchased tokens and you would like your money back please PM me and we can speak to the management to see about returning your funds as the management has stated multiple times that if you are unhappy they will refund your money on the spot.

I'm happy to chat with anyone and answer any questions I can.

I just spoke with a rep at Centerfolds Cabaret via 702-767-8757 and she assured me that there's NO The Legends Room replacing Centerfolds, and also that she has received several other calls on this matter and bitcoin. Call yourself to verify.

The website now looks like the following: https://legendsroomlv.com/




We have been informed by the management of the Legends Room that there has been some legal issues that have come up with Centerfolds and that the Legends Room will be moved to a different Venue. We have requested all the legal documentation to prove this and also to show the new road map and opening schedule for the club. Once we have this information we will update the community. No one who has invested will loose anything if something happens in this regard all funds will be returned. Please PM me with any questions.

How to know the amounts of any coin I have to send before buying?

The value needs to equal the amount required for a Platinum ($5000, 5000 VIP) or Silver ($1500, 1500 VIP) Membership.
However there is no minimum purchase requirement you can buy less or more.

The exchange rate is set at 1 ETH = 12 VIP or 1 VIP = $1 USD.

You can use The Legends Room website which uses ShapeShift for any other available coin but ETH, you will be able to send ETH directly to the given address.
Or use the Bittrex sale page which accepts ETH only.

https://legendsroomlv.com/mto/

https://www.bittrex.com/crowdfund/vip

Already tried on The Legends Room website and it said "Deposit amount is greater than the deposit limit."
That limit is with Shapeshift and you would need to do 2 separate transactions as their limit is 5000



You can also contact info@legendsroomlv.com for assistance.

Ok guys, you have my attention.  Frankly I love the idea and am a huge fan of Vegas, and would love to purchase this.  I have (more than) $5k in bitcoin ready right now, but before plopping down five grand (well, ok, $4500 until the 10th), I NEED to know the answer to ALL these questions:

-I'm not following your math here.  You say on the purchase page that 1 ETH = 12 VIP, and you need 5000 VIP for the lifetime membership, so 416.66 ETH is required for the "$4500" purchase.  Except that ETH is, at the time of this writing, worth $17.90 a pop, which would make it 17.9 * 416.66 = $7458.33 total cost.  What gives?  EDIT: Whoops, wasn't taking into account the 10% discount, but even with the -10%, it is still $6712.50

-What date will the club be opening?

-If we pay for it in anything other than ETH how are we supposed to know what exchange rate you're using so we won't be short like $2 or whatever?   What if I am going by Finex's rate of Dash and send what I think is $4500 worth and this DOES happen?

-With all this confusion, I might just go ahead and put this on my Visa.  In the event that I use a credit card, do I still get the 10% discount and drink/dance credit?

-Do the drink/dance credits have any expiration?

-When I rent out my membership, is there any way I can transfer/sell some of my drink or dance credit to the guy renting out my membership?

-When we rent out our membership, what are the different ways we can get paid?  I am specifically looking to get paid in bitcoin ONLY.


IF you can clear that up for me...my money is yours.  Thanks for your time and I wish you guys success.



To add to that you can transfer your credits but you have to do that through the concierge. When you rent your membership you can get paid in Bitcoin if you choose.

This is the SEC definition and in my opinion this is exactly what you are offering

The term equity security is hereby defined to include any stock or similar security, certificate of interest or participation in any profit sharing agreement, preorganization certificate or subscription, transferable share, voting trust certificate or certificate of deposit for an equity security, limited partnership


That is not even close to what the Legends Room is doing and I cannot understand how you could view it that way especially after reading that. The legal team has already been over this.

If you define this as a security you must view a car, a house, a boat, a Gym membership, a private club membership (which I have), and many other things as a security. That is just ridiculous.

You can still get a membership and rent it out and then if you come to Las Vegas you can enjoy the club and all it offers.

How is this offering NOT considered an equity offering? The "membership" can be bought, sold or rented.
I think this would fail the howie test and creat a problem for both the seller and buyer of this "token".
If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, then it is a duck - equity.

It is actually just access and as the memberships price after purchase from the club has no bearing on the club itself it is not equity. A member can choose to give the membership away if they wanted. Price is set by them not on the success of the club. Legal has been through this.

The Legends Room will accommodate any member. If the situation happens that the club is full the club will make arrangements for those members. They will not be disappointed.

my question is how does venue potentially fit 3000 members+guests on a 'hot' night.
assuming every member will always want to rent his membership out on the hottest nights - how do you accommodate that many VIPs in the area.
With thousands of memberships up for rent - what kind of premium/$ could one expect to earn?
Would it cause VIP members to essentially go into price wars to get their 'membership' rented out on X date?

So the venue can hold up to 600 in the Legends Room at one time and the entire club 1500-1800. Just as most clubs not all members will be there every night. The club also has reciprocal clubs that Members will have access to as well. There will be an announcement about this in the coming days.

You guys should consider adding some type of escrow as protection for the investors. Looking at the ICO it seems nobody is risking any money investing into this.

https://www.etherchain.org/account/0xb939ef33629bba211688724e401d4f6400c0ee6a#txreceived



There are a lot of institutional money that will be runned through as it gets transferred from Fiat to ETH. It is only in the Pre Sale right now and there will be a better idea of where the sales are when the actual sale starts.



Also the club is happening with or without a big raise and memberships will be available just not at the price it is now or with all the included extras. All token purchasers are completely safe and if something were to happen and it didn't go through all money would be returned.

Hey all with the price of Ether going up as it is we want to let everyone know that the price of memberships are set in USD so you cannot pay more. If you purchase in the pre sale the price is $4500 USD and if you buy that much in Ether or any crypto currency and do not receive the full 5000 VIP tokens the Legends Room will top up your balance at the end of the sale so that you have the correct amount.

Unlike other sales you are not at the mercy of the price fluctuation. If anyone has any questions please PM me.

Very nice set up! I have Ether and will not lose money!

Yes if you purchase a membership or already have please email info@legendsroomlv.com or PM me your txid so that I can make sure you will get your full balance of VIP.
