Good morning. It’s been a good weekend. Had some of the family around on Friday night and then yesterday we had a group of friends come around for a bring and braai. It was awesome to see them in person for the first time in months!

I had a good weekend, was kinda regretting being a trustee, as goodness gracious ppl are moaning mary’s… there is this one middle aged lady who is forever complaining about kids playing outside and this weekend because someone was having a birthday party…
And the funny thing was she was one of the ppl who complained when the previous trustees enforced a no visitor rule during level 3 and 4.
There’s just no winning with some ppl

So, I’m slow today, I blame poor sleep and a 24-hour endurance race that was shown at the weirdest hours of the day over this weekend…
Could anyone give me a quick summary of the Mirror Trading Story? The way my tired brain is interpreting @SIGSTART’s words is that there is some BTC not accounted for?

Thanks, @GregRedd.
Indeed it’s been nonstop since Wednesday when Anonymous first contacted me. First to try and responsibly disclose the vulnerability and then to try and analyse the data and ask MTI for specific details.
The data analysis went under-appreciated, though. They (MTI) just told me to get stuffed

In addition to needing a financial services license, being accused of fraud by authorities in Texas, and being placed on a list of illegal online trading sites in Canada,…
MTI made headlines recently after the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) said it was investigating the company.
However, the FSCA has a much greater concern about MTI’s activities.
The company claims to have more than R2.9 billion in clients’ funds in trading accounts, but the FSCA has not been able to conclusively confirm that the funds exist.
“Moreover, the returns on the investments claimed by MTI seems far-fetched and unrealistic,” the FSCA said.
If you have funds lodged with them, the strong advice is to withdraw as soon as possible.

Thanks for the summary! Luckily don’t have anything with them, nor know of anyone that does. It seems they’re quite the dodgy lot…
