Not a stretch if you can show negligence, intent, etc. I am curious how much and how he paid, that might be telling. The whole transaction on to today is probably filled with clues of his, and maybe their, wrongdoing.

This might be a bit of a stretch but does anyone else think that MintPal's Jason & Jay should be held responsible to some extent? Precautions should have been in place to protect existing users from shit like this. They sold the company in the drop of a hat (along with all our user balances) and there wasn't fuck all any of us could do about it. Their lack of foresight and consideration has costed many of us money.

It might be a year or more, but this prick will eventually resurface, probably broke, infected with an STD or three, and looking for a scam to perpetrate. You really can't hide forever in the world of the interwebz and when Ryan/Alex blows through the 3700 BTC ($1,470,000 some odd dollars worth!) he will return to his old haunts.... Then Karma with a capital K will likely come upon his sorry ass...... and yes, he got me for a few coins also.......

Totally agree- I've done my best to alert Bitstamp in the most immediate way possible. If this info we're lookin at is incorrect the worst thing that happens is the wrong account is frozen for a few hours. Best thing that happens is we catch a theif.

what you have done is admirable and should be shared with more than those who happen to read your post in this thread in this section of this site. I think others would be made aware of the various ways to get accountability.Everyone is crazy about 'dark-this' and 'dark-that' until it's their money that is "mixed-up" in all of the 'darkness', then they want a money trail, evidence, and intervention.Anyway, please contact me if you decide to do a 200 - 1000 word article on how you investigated the Mintpal/Moolah scandal.

It's not really an investigation, if you start at the original address and just follow the transactions out that are over 100btc, always following the largest amount you pretty soon end up at those addresses, the unconfirmed one has already moved on another few times and is now sitting here https://blockchain.info/address/12jgEDUGSVPtug1oJirztibPhxavt9CWcw 217btcA username "Caffeine Drive" mining with Eligius has his mining address filter through to an address that just received 1.4btc of the stolen coins
