Two months pass, no funds are collected, no credible attacker identified, no progress made. The source just spouts insanity and accusations so we returned the funds to Bitfinex.

ya, that guy does not seem to get that "not actionable" means you didn't tell us anything useful
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:46:03
Then the twitter and rbtc is flooded with these crazy accusations. Dude. no funds were recovered the deal was 5% of funds recovered.

some people adjust reality to fit their wants
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:46:55
I can't help but wonder if it wasn't really the plan all along. e.g. just another excuse to throw fud. :( but the guy seems genuinely unhinged.
mryandao 2017-01-10 13:47:07
was he paid by Roger Ver?
Chillum 2017-01-10 13:47:13
this is why rewards are often a bad idea
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:47:14
mryandao: you might wonder. :(
Chillum 2017-01-10 13:47:18
muddy the water
mryandao 2017-01-10 13:47:22
to stir shit up again to discredit
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:48:29
In any case, all we did was help out execute this; hoping it would help out the ecosystem if successful. Adam nor I had any funds lost in finex. There was no recovery or any obvious prospect of one...so.. funds returned. In fact, I even paid transaction fees to help out. so this whole thing was just cost to me.
mryandao 2017-01-10 13:50:39
gmaxwell: how generous of you to pay the transaction fees :)
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:51:22
hah.
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:51:46
probably saved me an hour of a round trip with bitfinex to get approval of the amount.
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:52:01
handling all that stuff took hours of my time... and now there is this smear attack. :P
Dizzle 2017-01-10 13:55:15
gmaxwell: that's frustrating :|
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 13:56:15
All the 'evidence' is self explanitory so I haven't bothered commenting on it, but even just the headlines are damaging.

His twitter makes his avatar look unironic
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 14:09:41
I kinda wondered what the idea was there.
gmaxwell 2017-01-10 14:10:05
maybe it's actually trump. :P
madduck 2017-01-10 14:11:45
sorry about that. should be over now
EdenCoder 2017-01-10 14:14:29
gmaxwell: Maybe Trump stole all the btc, can I have my 5% now?
