Paxum Ceases Business With Bitcoin
Over the course of the last two weeks, Paxum has been in communication with our banking partners, Mastercard, and our auditors to evaluate the best interests of Paxum (and its clients) in relation to Bitcoin.
After much discussion and consideration it has been decided that, though Bitcoin's are not illegal, they are considered high risk. At Paxum we do not want to jeopardize our clients, or our business model, in any way. In light of that, and after considerable consultation, we have chosen to take the pro-active step of ceasing all business with Bitcoin and Bitcoin Exchangers. This situation has also been discussed with Bitcoin Exchangers, who completely understand the motives behind this decision. Thank you for your time.

I'm just curious because I am actively learning more and more about bitcoin, but what makes it so "high risk"?

Bitcoin is high risk? Is it operated by inept clowns and/or penis pill peddlers or something?

Paxum was not hacked by any Bitcoin user(s), and we have not encountered any fraudulent activity with Bitcoin and Bitcoin-related accounts.
The decision to terminate all Bitcoin associated accounts was made after much consideration and discussion, and this decision was made on Friday. This was not an overnight/impulsive choice. We had been in discussions with our banking partners, Mastercard and our auditors for the last couple of weeks, and on Friday our banking partners ended the discussions with us and stated that it was too much of a potential risk to continue doing business with Bitcoin and Bitcoin Exchangers and instructed us to close all Bitcoin-related accounts. We had no choice but to follow those instructions and therefore, all Bitcoin associations were severed on Friday. It is easy to form 'conspiracy theories' from any circumstance and 'link' things together, however the plain truth of the matter is described above. Due to the confusion and wild speculation occurring on this forum, we thought it wise to clarify our decision. We appreciate that so many of you care about our business, and we value your opinions of our service, however we must make decisions based, not on the popularity of the decision itself, but on wisdom and logic based on our business model and long-term goals. As such, some of our decisions may be questioned or not be welcomed, but it is for the good of ALL our clients that we have ceased doing business with Bitcoin at this time. Thanks again for your time.

I don't think people care about your business or offering opinions. We care about the security of our money. Paxum came on the scene immediately after Epass imploded and folks are rightfully allowed to ask questions when things do not seem to add up.

Audits and then password changes.
Bitcoins no more of Friday and announce it after 2 weeks of discussions on Saturday. Why not make security changes before audit or delay audit and show then Auditors a new more secure system? Such a rush to do an unannounced update seems very suspicious. Why not post the results of your audit if everything is so hunky dorey? Suesheboy smells fish and it ain't too fresh... |

If audits are being performed on a company it takes time to implement the changes and run tests so we do not wake up one day to a fucked account - given this period was two weeks - I'd say thats good change at a fast rate. Conspiracies aside, i'm sure they are trying disassociate the 'epassporte' stigma and maybe avoid some businesses that are at a risk level that jeapardizes, statistically, the portfolio in whole for the greater good. Altho the 8 hour downtown on the site last night did prevent me from drinking my face off last night in an anti-valentines day party, I wake up alert and ready to tackle the world lol.
*tear* - if paxum is still listening, please paxum me 15000 bux for this message lol j/k ty in advance lol

Disappointing but I can understand your decision.
I spent 2 days a week ago getting your API to work with Rails but now I guess that was time wasted.

They never accepted bitcoins. They are banning others from doing bitcoin services accepting Paxum for payment.

Paxum was actively recruiting customers and being represented on the bitcoin forums and exchanges. I guess they changed their minds.
One of the emails stated the change is caused by new banking regulations, whatever those are.

I don't think this is anything to do with new regs but bitcoin is currently getting a lot of negative press so maybe it was a precautionary measure.
