welp, the guy who sold wooden dildos for bitcoins turns out to be a scammer

A moron posted:

Alright lets say it's hand made and mostly carved + machine for the fine details. He has always delivered and great product now we are going to attack his reputation because he is exaggerating.. Sounds kind of like a bored soccer mom looking for someone to harass... :S

Technically he is not lying.. he did carve some by hand. Some of it was made by hand thus it was hand made..

"See that nick there in the corner? I totally made that with my own two hands."

Why is every single person involved with bitcoin in anyway either a scammer or a moron?

e: poo poo it's not that hard to see what was made by hand and what was cut by laser.

lmao at the video "proof" that he's a master artisan, it's more than an hour of him loving up a laser cut design with a dremel. and half the coiners find it completely convincing. the whole argument is so loving petty too

The complete lack of audio and deliberate concealment of his face gives the conspiracy theorist in me the hope it's actually Johnniewalker trying his hand at something that involves fewer power tools aimed at his junk.

e: oh man this thread combined with these three photos really puts the nail in the coffin that dude uses a laser engraver; all the logos are on perfectly cylindrical parts of the pieces

i like the idea that the best and easiest way to get real money out of bitcoin is to start your own exchange

it might even be true

HELP ! Lost wallet data, 5BTC reward (self.Bitcoin)
submitted 7 hours ago * by markanderson44

I recently got a new computer and loaded bitcoin client on it.

I had a wallet.dat saved with 500BTC on it ... 300/100/100 was how I loaded it and then I proceeded to do transactions with it for the last month

Now I loaded my wallet today and it appears all my info is gone EXCEPT the initial 300BTC transaction. I cant see any of the subsequent transactions.

The wallet is 1JmDpGask6riXwRNNssAGFuR5szpQug8cA

I cant see any of my receiving addresses, the transactions screen has 1 transaction ... its insane !

Today I did a .8BTC transaction from another computer and it showed up, so wtf ?

My question and area I need help in is where has all the in between data gone ? From Oct 2 until today right before the .8 transaction.

Please help. I am offering a 5BTC reward.
