On December 23 a Missouri court ordered a winddown of Butterfly Labs and they began a refund plan.....now here is my theory...I was looking at the blockchain and came across a 5000 btc utxo taken incrementally down to 0....it was sold off continuously. It took me to here.

Activity on that address started back up on 12/23 the day the courts provided control again. Ive tied it to butterfly labs because a OP_RETURN said paycoin.com linked to Josh Zerlan an employee of butterflylabs.
I think youll have butterfly labs forced to continue to sell the remaining 94000 coins in this court mandated wind down in order to provide refunds to those customers....That is a ton of coins to continuously dump...it exceeds 24 hour volume on the largest exchange.
Gee, almost sounds like Butterfly Labs was a scam on top of bitcoin scam. Sell preorders for a money printing machine, build said machine, and sit on it printing money for yourself.
I'm sorry you have to go through this, and I think it's admirable that you do not want to get lawyers involved, but think of everyone in your position who doesn't have the means to properly defend themselves from something like this. I think it's important to make a point that falsely accusing someone of rape is never okay, and comes with its consequences.
Unlike most marketplaces, we're offering high payments for authors who don't sell exclusively with us. We're seeing a lot of high-quality theme shops opening up who want the option to sell on their own platforms but still utilize marketplaces for additional exposure.
While wrap has done a great job building up a user base and getting first mover advantage, we're always reading complaints on social media and forums that their support is lacking and that the site has not been updated. We wanted to give designers a better option and give great support to both buyers and sellers. Once we increase our sales and following, I'm confident that authors will want to switch over. Right now we're on page 3/4 of Google hoping to move up to page 1 very soon.
Our goal is to grow a great community around the marketplace. We've already started doing this with our blog and tutorials. We will be adding more features in the near future.
I'm seeing lots of themes that are also available at other theme stores, what safeguards are in place to stop people from selling themes that aren't theirs to sell?
We always do a quick search and cross reference the email, author name, and theme info to make sure everything matches up. It's usually pretty easy to sniff out when someone uploads a theme that isn't theirs.
Because if you ever have a problem with wrap bootstrap you will get no response.
I paid for a theme on WB and never received it. Emails to support and phone calls to the registered number for the domain went unanswered.
I had to email the theme's author and he sent me a copy.
Had he not responded then WB would have effectively taken my money without providing me service, with my only recourse being a chargeback.
