And the thief seals his theft:

$0.87

practicalthought (65) · 6 years ago

Haejin, I just had a look at his wallet and am going to hold off just yet on making a post. I noticed in the sceenshot that I took for the post I was going to write that he has left 3,144.986 Steem in his wallet. Added with the Steem being powered down and interest earned on that Steem he could still cover his debt with you. Until his next transfer that would make it impossible, I can't say he has taken his next step in his theft.

I notice that his hatred of you compels him to troll you and your wife, which is another testament to his character, and am wondering if he plans to give you the money back but spend the next 3 months taunting you with it as he jabs in his pathetic bitterness. Or at least that is perhaps his plan for now. Being of low character, if he comes across another hard time I am sure he will cross that line and send out some of your share. But for now, he has not sent it out yet.

Not that it will mitigate any of the words being said, but I am sorry that he taunts you and has found some support for it. Water rises to its own level and he is showing us those of like character as they flock to his side with support.

I'm sorry to see he chose to keep it. While it became obvious after the first power down and he still hadn't sent that back to you, I was hopeful that he realized that many here saw through his attempts at justification to be a thief.

I still get people showing up on this thread defending him and attacking you, as though it is ok since they don't like you. Lowlife scumbags with no moral compass.

I am guessing that kaliju decided that he was incapable of building a viable business without you doing the work, and that he would profit most from stealing your money since he isn't cut out for business. I'm sorry that you got betrayed after your kindness to him. Helping him the way you did before the partnership even formed. Mentoring him and financially backing him when in truth he was not needed. He says in his Dstors profile "Haejin stole me" but sadly the truth is he sold himself for your Steem.

deepcrypto is Binance. It may be to late, but maybe you can contact them and give them a link to this post. It has proof he stole it, and they have taken actions showing that if one has proof of stolen crypto they will take it from the thief.

I will write up a follow up tomorrow on this, although I doubt he will have a change of heart. I imagine he will either cash it out to pay his bills and disappear from Steemit, or send some of it back to a new account that won't have the shame of his theft attached to it.

Based on statements made in this post here by kaliju

which I grabbed some of my screenshots from, as well as looking at their transactions (which doesn't verify all of it because of Binance transfers partially) and the fact Haejin is so adamant seems to make this pretty cut and dried. He spells out in the one screen shot I shared the conditions he "might" return the Steem. Nothing to return if you didn't take it.

I am shocked this hasn't doomed them already, but they are effectively running a bot service now for those who delegated to them as shows in their comments which I also shared a screenshot of.

dstors (68) · 6 years ago (edited)

HEY! LISTEN. What are you talking about really!? Bot service? ! I SPECIFICALLY said that this is to tie you guys over until we release. Customer service, maybe? Are you delegating? You're starting to piss me off man, I'm nice to a point. This is not cool. like I said, it is NONE of your business how I handle Haejin or what business I have with him. You think just because I'm nice you can ride on my weak spots? I'm also a human being and right now I'm feeling pretty fucking paranoid about who is who, as far as I know, you could be in cahoots with him plotting. How do I know you're not chatting behind my back for whatever reason? Be men all of you and handle it directly, privately, by writing me an email or contacting directly.

Wow, you take the cake. I addressed you two days ago about my primary concern, which was it kills your trust level if you are stealing others money. I don't know Haejin, and if you knew shit about me you would know better than to say something like that. Unlike many here I donate a good portion of my earnings, just check my transactions. You will also notice I have never interacted with Haejin.

Your imagining I am in "cahoots" as you say reminds me of the story of the Tell Tale Heart.

It was just a week ago I was going to bat for you based on credibility I had awarded you based on some who have been vouching for you. I tried very hard to help you salvage whatever could be. I am lost at how you think this is ok. But you won't have to worry about me. After this post, I will be shaking your venture from my feet. As I said in my post, if you can do this with his money out of anger, I know how you could treat mine if you held it from any potential buyers.

I went to bat for you man.

Let's not worry about buyers as it's all going to be p2p and with no middle man, thankfully. As for the batting, I will be fine on my own and deal with things as I always have. I NEVER run and take things that are not mine. But I also can't sit quite in the face of all the allegations and lecturing - it is personally stressful to read (it just comes up when someone mentions dstors) and this is not helping Haejin either as all stems from his impatience and running it publically. He's going to try to smear me here AND take legal action? When I fight back I'm like wild fire - nothing survives and he will earn that to his surprise pretty soon. Keep it up.

In court.

Which court would that be? The court of public opinion? To me the theft is less interesting than the legal grey area of crypto. We are entering a realm where people can't be prosecuted.

What is @dstors? Who is @dstors? If someone is found to be in possession of the private key does that make them legally responsible for the actions of the account? What if it's just the posting key?

We are entering an age of opt-in governance, and stuff like this is only going to make less sense as time goes on. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

The Ethereum Classic community makes the argument that the DAO hack wasn't theft, or if it was then it wasn't worth prosecuting. Code-is-law governance will be an option for everyone.

$0.10

baah (61) · 6 years ago

The court depends on the Jurisdiction and where the plaintiff choses the venue. The defendant could get his straw man attacked in his native/current KR jurisdiction OR in the plaintiffs native/current jurisdiction, either way, Fraud is Fraud, theft is theft. The DOA hack not being theft isn't an argument. An argument is simply if a is b and b is c then a is always c, a proposition followed by other supportive propositions leading to a conclusion, not just a proposition, not only an assertion. In terms of ownership it doesn't matter that the keys were in the car, it doesn't matter how the founds were compromised, because theft is INTENTION and PRODUCTS/ACTS.

ETC does not have an argument, they have a marginal and dare I say fringe opinion at most on why a HF should or shouldn't happen, or as you put it "if it was theft it wasn't worth prosecuting", which is embarrassingly only support of the theft, nothing more, no reasoning or explanation could ever manifest for "not worth prosecuting".

I think the argument for ETC is pretty simple. The hacker followed the rules. You don't reverse immutability on the main chain because someone fucked up a custom smart contract.

The same logic applies to privacy. You don't take away privacy because a small minority of people are going to use that privacy to break the law. The problems created by taking away privacy are far bigger than the ones that exist. Sometimes doing nothing is the smartest course of action.

That being said I think I would have been on team Ethereum over ETC if I had been around when it happened. Community consensus is the new law. We're forging the ability to bend or break the law for relevant exceptions. A middle ground needs to be forged because both sides of the spectrum have serious consequences.

baah (61) · 6 years ago (edited)

Immutability is worthless if theres a gaping hole in the underlying or overlying infrastructure built on the chain that allows people to basically cheat and steal funds out of others, that's why ETC have no argument, no logic and only a fringe opinion/baseless assertion that Code Is Law because there's no relevant explanation why and how immutability is above all else and that's why it's only assertion. That's why there's a maxim of law that says For every Rule or Law, there is an exception, because rules and laws aren't devoid of logic, ethics, or sensibility. It doesn't make sense to say that "Reality allows it" when it's a matter of ethics or morality and in the same way it's utter nonsense to affirm that Immutability is above all else, especially when the question is "when should the blockchain be edited, reverted or modified" to which the only acceptable and sensible answer should be Whenever a consensus forms (observe how, not why).

Posted using Partiko Android
Edit
Sorry about the double comments and wanted to add that the only exception I see to Whenever consensus forms is exactly what ETC is: when a fringe few would rather die in obscurity instead of considering it an ethical problem as opposed to what's allowed by reality so to speak (observe why, not how).

The idea of democracy is beautiful, in nature one doe stands up, signaling that it is thirsty and wants to head to the watering hole, then another joins, and another, and as soon as a majority forms they all get up and go, but then when democracy is used to empower certain groups and violate others it creates the exploitable positions that make democracy redundant at best but usually destructive to freedom and life. The reason democracy exists is to chose a specific course of action in regards to generally how but also why a group of people decide they ought to combine their efforts to fulfill a communal objective. That's why democracy works and is legitimate for ETH and why by code is law as when/how a hardfork happens ETC is illegitimate, a fraud, and functionally it's a haven for thieves.

From the evidence here, it's clear that demands were made to return money that haejin "left" in the @dstors account. If that is so, that the funds are haejin's, it's black and white everywhere else except maybe the ETC camp, that it is theft. Does it mean that because it's international that he's escaped or evaded the consequences of Criminal and or Civil prosecution? No, that's why it's really funny that he's claiming to have talked to lawyers and can provide timestamps and source code and "designs", as if it takes a lawyer to recognize the act of taking what isn't yours or any big genius to spot the difference between talk of leaking info versus actual evidence relevant to exonerating the theft, he's clearly getting nowhere fast but even with the obvious admission of holding haejins funds hostage some people doubt the theft, which would be ok if haejin and others haven't also verified or confirmed it, a bit of twilight zone episode.

practicalthought (65) · 6 years ago

You point out a fear of mine that is secondary to me to the fact that such a theft is not only taking place in front of all of us, but with seeming support from a segment of the community. I am guessing that the international barriers as well as desire for anonymity is emboldening such a move. This is exactly the type of shit that gives a door for oversight, and regardless of some saying it isn't theft, it is. If this line of thought becomes law, there will never be any mass adoption, and I predict there will be lots of violence. There are people who would do horrible things for far less value being taken.

The thiefs responses thus far have amounted to "If he doesn't have a witnessed signature of me admitting to stealing the funds in the account then it's not theft". If all the generosity that he's seen is true, and why wouldn't it be, then he is amid the most despicable kinds of people there are. I never liked how haejin abused his stake but that doesn't mean he's deserving of this duplicitous douchebag hijacking the funds he put into the account.

I looked through the 39 pages of steemd on the account @dstors, I saw no excessively large transfer, some transfers to promotion bots for post, but nothing that looked like any sort of theft. When a person Delegates SP they can undo that transaction when ever they want to.

I did not look at @kaliju's page. It seems to me in the two pieces you posted above in images that @kaliju has done the correct thing and sought out legal help, (good for him), and has asked as part of the "discovery" process facts and documents to the claims being made against him.

I see no evidence being put forth by you, nor Mr. Haejin about how this supposed theft from @dstors took place? Serious accusation in my book require proof. Post a document showing the loan and then the request for re-payment and then the denial of the request, then yes you can call it theft. Until I see proof of theft, I will not treat an individual as a thief. Call me foolish, but I still believe a person is innocent until proven guilty. Show the proof of the theft.

Post a document showing the loan and then the request for re-payment and then the denial of the request...

That and so much more, like a document that shows that we incrorporated and that it was leagally signed by me. I will leak the actual (lawdepot.com templates that he used) "partnership" papers that I did sign with him that stated our roles for the non existing company that was "soon to be incorporated". Glad it never happened as he completely took control of everything (by threatening to pull his support if i didn't agree with his ways) which caused a lot of questioning from @whatsup and others.

I talked to the law firm that we were supposed to work with and they know that I backed out before it was too late, in writing. He's good at throwing three paragraph essays together and lying. That's how most, just like I have, fall under his influence. He manipulates people, that's what he does. I played a fool and went along as much as I could, boiling on the inside, when he went from 20% ownership to wanting full ownership using pressure tactings and my reliance on his promised backing.

He couldn't offer the devs that came forward to help us any actual money and tried to play everyone on the team by offering them token stake as compensation that doesn't even exist.

He claims he has multiple companies and that he was charting for over 20 years but he's only registered his analytics business in September. I don't know how he got his @ranchorelaxo account but what I do know is that steemit is his main source of income that he probably doesn't even pay tax on.

He doesn't own anything about dStors and never will. I have timestamps all over the place, source code, logo design, all social networks, domain names, witnesses etc.
He wants to take any of it, let him, that'll be a rope my lawers will hang him by the ballsack with.

His wife has influnce in #kr community and the reason being is because most of them can't read English and so are clueless as to what is really going on. That's how delegators left - they were told a story and none bothered to reach out to me and ask what was going on. I'm not about to start chasing people, explaining my side. It's useless.

He shitted all over the dstors account by using it to reply to people with agression, got pissed off at me for correcting him and started dcommerce. One must be a fool thinking that something that has a name like dcommerce can even be trademarked/inc'd or succeed as a platform. But that's besides the point. Point is, he must show proof, on paper, with my consent in signature and an official statement of him leaving the partnership before starting dcommerce and violating all dev agreements and NDA's in the process that were signed by everyone on the team.

Haejin: A lying ass amateur who claims to be a pro can continue with dcommerce fooling people. I can go on and on, but the proof of all that I speak of is in the pudding. And I might just share it for fun if this silly time wasting continues. Why are you so desperate to destroy a guy with an empty wallet, if you're so sure Mr. Millionaire? Save your breath and keyboard banging and talk to my lawyer who was laughing his ass off the other day while going over our "papers". Pfft!

Why would there be no public memo about what the funds were for, why would he mention in his response (haejin's) that kali was being paid in steem not USD, why not show what the funds were to be used for, were they promised payments to kali, were they funds to be used to pay developers? There are a lot of reason why one person gives another person funds when they are a "Supposed" Investor. Investors lose money in a lot of investments. They also add money to help pay for work when they see a chance of reward. So far I haven't seen any evidence from either side what the funds were supposed to be for. Just because it looks like money was given, what were the terms of the money transfer? Why not show the document of what the funds were for? 90% of all wallet transfers have a memo attached to them especially when they are transfers of more than 5 steem, so why no memo on these transfers? I am not saying it does not belong to haejin, but it could just as well be kali's money also as payment as haejin went to great lengths to point out that kali was supposedly the only one being paid. All I am certain of is that I will never know the truth of it.

Thanks. This is jacked, and it is worrisome to me just how many are still backing the theft with excuses, sending in delegations as they rake in using the theft as a bid bot. I haven't responded yet but someone earlier actually put forth the idea it is ok to steal from Haejin because he deserves it for profiting from his investment (I cleaned up the verbiage).

Shake my damn head at the snakes willing to be blind or defend, to earn a few extra Steem or because they do mental somersaults comparing someone profiting from their investment via the reward pool to rape. Of course, to get upset with those who created the math for said pool are never blamed, only those who bring their investment in to use it.

No, Haejin didn't rape a mathematical formula that was invented and created to bring investments such as his to the chain in the hopes of creating scarcity so all of our holdings would be more valuable. Which in turn would allow for easier funding by stakeholders for projects.

In fact, I am pretty sure that anyone who has had the misfortune of actually being raped would find the comparison to be more distasteful than I do. I do not understand why the anger for this scenario is directed at those investors who are pulled here with this math formula as an incentive, and not directed instead to the creators/voters of the math formula. While I personally do not self vote a lot, and give (tithe) to a worthy project here does not mean I am angry because an investor wants a return on their investment. I stay out of that battle and worry about my interest as I have no power to affect what the top stakeholders decide the math will be, and as I said, I believe that the value of Steem is directly tied to those willing to invest in the chain.

Having said that, I find it incredible that on top your ability to equate the seeking of top return on ones investment with the physical violation of rape, you then move forward using this absurd comparison as justification that he now "deserves" to be stolen from.

I had delegated some SP to them a couple of weeks ago, but then the things started happening and the way that they were answering legitimate questions from users really turned me off. I also noticed that they were using the delegations that had been given to them to upvote their own posts at 100%. I can probably understand the idea behind that, but I still found it a little disturbing. Needless to say, I ended up quickly pulling my delegation and now seeing this I am pretty glad I did. Thanks for speaking up about this. I don't have much interaction with @haejin given how small I am, but it only seems right that they return the funds if the project is not moving forward the way it was originally intended or planned.

I'm more curious about how dstors ever want to get back its reputation after all that drama here. Is it still worth investing? Will they ever get back on there feet and deliver a product? I don't care about personal disputes this is non of my business!

We should have Court DApp with lawyers so thing like this wouldn't happen. Its like a one time smart contract, if something like this happen the money will be returned to those involved. Which would include fee of course.

This is your opinion. What I know renders all your concerns invalid. You want the truth? You can't have it. Haejin already made me look like shit with his childish tantrums before all this when he was power tripping on the inside. He does it again here, spreading lies and confusion. He is oblivious. I can't concern myself with what you think or say, Haejin is the real thief and he's calling me one. It blows my mind - the audacity of that sociopath. I suggest you drop minding other people's business, with all due respect, because if he can't tell you how he and his family schemed to take the only thing that mattered to me (this project) from me, then no one can. Everyone's a judge all of a sudden, would you look at that! There is no value arguing or fighting opinions coming from the dark. Sorry but not sorry.

Now I see that you guys are just crooks. Many things can be found explanations, if to engage in dialogue. But, you blame the one who financed you. This is very low. It reminded me of a washing machine repairman who took the money from me and disappeared, and when I found him, he threatened me with the police and accused me of all mortal sins. The scale is different, but the essence is the same.

None of that gives you rightful ownership of his Steem, no matter how angry his actions made you. You pretty much admit you have his Steem in the screenshot I shared from your own post, your words.

Hey, please read my comment.

At this point and time, people have all made up their mind and keep calm and say less is my advice.

You want the truth? You can't have it

....and how is this perspective going to help you grow your business?
If people see this as a perspective you hold, they will not have confidence, will they?

Good business practice is about being honest. In this case, it starts with this financial debacle/ disagreement.

Believe it or not, I'm trying to help.

Well, because haejin will never tell you the truth is what I mean. Seriously. No matter what I say, my reputation is already shot by means of gossip, misinformation and deceit from him and his clueless followers. This is a he say she say thing now, what can realistically be done at this point. Nothing. But I may start releasing proof of how he tried to force me out of dStors. I'm watching, for now.

You're conflating business maneuverings with financial transactions - this is not the the same.

Business manouverings may be horrible, but that's what happens.

Unless a fraud is committed, the financial responsibilities do not alter - no matter how much grievance is involved on a persona level (him trying to dictate the business, and a feeling of it being taken away from you etc.)

A quick resolution is best (for your own interest), it really is...

Resolve and move on a quick as possible.

Boom. I'm so glad someone else can see through the bullshit too.

He may be able to code, maybe not, I don't know...

But he can't handle feedback, conflict or trouble.. What are the odds he can build a successful business. Same can be said for the other project as well.

We need professionals if they are to be in charge of large delegations and projects. None of these guys can even handle their own emotions, odds of managing a large, long-term project... Nil.

The fact is that reputation needs to be earned. It is harder to earn than money. Money can be stolen, it is possible to squeeze, but, so to do in the case of reputation, will not work. As a result, you have not earned money and have lost a hint of reputation. You yourself, give this profanation a definition. You can return everything that does not belong to you; it will not lift you up in our eyes, but people will not give a damn about you. They'll forget about you soon. This is not the worst option for you.

Cannot believe you think what you did was "being real". Maybe being really cluless, maybe being a real douchebag or a real thief, but certainly not someone that Tupac was talking about. You close with

Peace to all and may everyone's dreams come true.

You're a fake. Peace doesn't mean steal. You cannot have peace if you're a thief, but keep dreaming that for 2019 though see how far along you get.

I only had time for a quick perusal before work, and many things bothered me. I see most of those points were addressed on the thread by Haejin and Whatsup. I see you deleted the OP and posted differently since, so I won't beat a dead horse. The only thing I will comment on it (since you shared the link here) was your admission to playing a part with Haejin. I was shocked to see you dig yourself deeper with that one, as it makes any rational person wonder how often you are or are not playing roles.

I see you have initiated a power down, and hope this is because you are going to give him his money back.

Yeah, that would be helpful to show good intent if he sent it back. He is still passing out upvotes with your SP and getting more delegations too I notice.

Wonder how many sending in delegations or keeping the ones they placed already have protested in the past over your using your stake (investment) for higher returns, using the incredible comparison to rape? Hypocrites and snakes all through this place, screaming "what about the community" when they think they might lose out on a few fractions of a Steem due to investors using their stake, but once the profit is in their favor, time to turn a blind eye or worse, push out irrational defense that ignores the clear proof of theft.

Sorry they appear to be digging in for the long haul with the support of selfish members of the community. I can imagine how livid you must be at such betrayal, especially after reading the gestures you made to him while he was down on his luck, before you came on and demonstrated how one would put together such a project.

When things unraveled, before the intent of theft was known, I knew it was your input that was behind the vision. His capabilities were demonstrated with steemfleamarket. I will still hold out hope he decides to do right by you, and the reason for the power down is to return your money.
