Add to that @Atko will not even explain what happened. If this site was not a honeypot before, I'll put up a bitcoin it is now. Not that it matters since user funding and ads have been deactivated for months which brings up the question of funding. Though why fund a site when the development is effectively dead, with no new features after the big port.

They had 49 bitcoins when they shut down donations. 37 cashed out, with the remaining 12, they have nothing to worry about for awhile.

do you have a source on that info?

More than I originally heard: https://voat.co/v/whatever/1871503

$7.7 million usd? That's bullshit! Check out the wallet yourself: https://blockchain.info/address/1PhBpbED6uEnrvy5s9F9axBZbK8fWAeZdc?offset=0&filter=6

They followed voat’s wallet and found it connected to another account, which is the one posted.

MadWorld ago

But that's someone else's account. Do you have a link to that wallet in question? Thanks!

GoodGodKirk ago

No I don’t, but I believe the block chain may be found distributing coins to that account as a link.

I know that voat had at least 49 bitcoins at one point. The fact that the wallet only has 7 bitcoin transactions makes me think it’s another account used.

All transactions are connected in the blockchain. Just because Voat's wallet contains a transaction from another account, who had 49btc at the time, doesn't mean the other fat wallet belongs to Voat. To me that's just nonsense!

I don't keep track of Voat's financial data. Based on that last fundraising announcement, there wasn't that much btc, certainly nowhere near 49btc. We could ask @PeaceSeeker to run a better estimation of current situation.

That may be better as I can’t find the other posts to link here.
