gribble: Error: For identification purposes, you must be identified via GPG to use the rating system.
smickles: ;;rate nefario -1 seems to have broken contracts and screwed over many people for his own ass
BTC-Mining: according to theymos, he kind of cut the bridges
rdponticelli: Glad nobody took my bid of 1 satoshi for glbse shares
Azelphur: I wonder if nefario is planning on posting an update today
B0g4r7: dub: <nefario> I'm creating the future of bitcoin! <-- Sad if true
smickles: heh, maybe that short was nef
smickles: mircea_popescu: do you think this will affect the btcusd exchange rate?
dub: <nefario> I'm creating the future of bitcoin!
B0g4r7: The address I sent my BTC to to deposit it into glbse.
BTC-Mining: erhm... people sometimes deposit from address they don't control
B0g4r7: Since I already have that.
mircea_popescu: anyone trading past that point is sol.
mircea_popescu: and incidentally, the last backup available is the registry of record
smickles: BTC-Mining: i think the 'backup' rg has is the hd of the server
BTC-Mining: You need the latest one, not a backup. Also, who will give a code to each holder so they can claim the assets?
smickles: rg: how about that backup of the db
dub: [17:52] <rg> nefario is going to sort everyhting out
Azelphur: what are they going to arrest us for?
Azelphur: the thing I'm curious about, say we give the nefario our info and he is snitching
B0g4r7: I have (well I guess had not) a non-trivial amount of BTC there.
dub: for the lulz
Azelphur: nothing I can't afford to loose
Azelphur: yea, I have a few BTC there
smickles: Azelphur: there were only a few hundred satoshi on glbse anyway
B0g4r7: Nefario, do the right thing and return our asets without dragging us into your mess.
Azelphur: smickles: I imagine if you get the who owns what shares info off them, we don't need GLBSE funds anyway
pigeons: not the ip he has been using
mircea_popescu: is the NO_OOh him ?
Azelphur: but what are they even going to do to the investors?
Azelphur: yea, I mean I know that from his side
Azelphur: smickles: what's the point of him snitching exactly though?
dub: I turst him to turn his kids into serial killers
mircea_popescu: i trust him not to sell btc under 20
BTC-Mining: oh... barring some exceptions. I mean, bitcoiners tend to trust MtGox too.
mircea_popescu: actually i trust luke to
pigeons: i trust Luke-Jr
mircea_popescu: BTC-Mining At this rate, no single bitcoiner will be left trusting anything. <<
mircea_popescu: BTC-Mining don't shittalk. mpex was fine all along, and is fine to this day.
pigeons: matthewh3 talked to him on the cell earlier today
mircea_popescu: anyone guess the date on that quote ?
mircea_popescu: Nefario: You are obviously unqualified to be anywhere near a project of the complexity of an exchange, even for play money (which I suspect BTC are, for most of you here, at least judging on behavior records).
B0g4r7: I think he deserves the cold shoulder or worse.
smickles: so, what's this community think of 'snitches', as nef is likely one
BTC-Mining: After the SEC got interested in it.
BTC-Mining: FSA might have put it's nose in the case...
B0g4r7: Because he's flipped and is working for those who pwned him, perhaps.
pigeons: there is one reason. not like it wasn't likely this would happen.
pigeons: worse than scammer
B0g4r7: I do believe that's a big fat Scammer tag I see headed Nefario's way.
smickles: i just saw this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=115669.0
BTC-Mining: At this rate, no single bitcoiner will be left trusting anything.
BTC-Mining: Hey, plenty of madness over here in the forum
pigeons: i thought he was a bit of a clueless hack, but this is harmful
copumpkin: but I'm a nice guy so I don't usually put it in those terms
copumpkin: I've maintained that nefario is a bit of a clueless hack for months now
mircea_popescu: at this point im guessing i will take deadterra off my ignore
pigeons: yeah i liked the unicorn too
teek: what in the actual fuck
mircea_popescu: i'd like to have SOME competition. what i don't like is people thinking glbse was competition
BTC-Mining: Mircea is not interested in what's being issued on GLBSE, except maybe a few things...
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: as an MPOE shareholder, I demand that you bring back the unicorn
mircea_popescu: copumpkin lol ty but...
knotwork: Maybe instead of everyone sharing one fate it would be better to put each asset-issuer on a separate server just for their assets and no one else's?
BTC-Mining: Look at the link.
B0g4r7: Well that bet got moot fast. Oh well.
BTC-Mining: Well at least theymos claim Nefario has completly cut relations with other GLBSE owners
BTC-Mining: Seems like the bet is already won? I don't know.
thoa_afk: wins the bet then?
midnightmagic: So what happens if glbse just arbitrarily steals everyone's assets? I mean who wins the bet then?
midnightmagic: For example, it completely leaves out all the pre-existing assets that users currently "own".
midnightmagic: smickles: No, there are too many possible technicalities.
smickles: midnightmagic: will you place a bet on that ?
B0g4r7: "For this statement to be false, on November 1 2012 at 12:00 AM UTC, the gblse.com website must be online and accessible to internet users, users must be able to log in, and users must be able to execute both buy and sell trades on the listed securities. At least 5 securities must be listed."
B0g4r7: GLBSE bet submitted. Now let's see how long it takes BoB to approve and post it.
pigeons: ok as long as -pr has no access to the site
mircea_popescu: (and no, no relation to mpoe-pr either)
pigeons: oh that's cute, you call it your cto
BTC-Mining: Good to know
BTC-Mining: or anything which would unexpectedly render you unable to perform said actions.
B0g4r7: Specifically with regard to jurisdiction and regulatory intervention, are you located in a place that is less jackbooted than the UK?
BTC-Mining: Yeah, but suppose you have a heart attack RIGHT NOW and can't actually do those actions, who will do them. Who else has access to MPEx?
mircea_popescu: and read the next one too
B0g4r7: Tell us how MPOE is different from GLBSE such that it is unlikely to suffer the same kind of problems.
mircea_popescu: it was an exceptionally good month tho
mircea_popescu: (because of the way mpoe works with nonvoting stock you can never sell > 50% of any comp)
pigeons: oh i thought that could help him value mpex
pigeons: the page was vandalized though there is a scary freak at the top
pigeons: threats are taken serious by my internet lawyer. a few of you will find out just how serious i mean.
mircea_popescu: "eligibile". as if there's choice involved lol
pigeons: if you are looking to file suit against glbse you will not be eligble for repayment
pigeons: i think in the heat of the moment, nefario made a move to secure the usd backing of the coins when they were not returned and has made things much more difficult
mircea_popescu: i mean... it's just asking for trouble. how do you delist ? how do you cover the endgame ? it's irresponsible.
pigeons: i think one of glbse's partners has decided to make things difficult for him and the earliest maybe coins will begin to move is october 12th
mircea_popescu: i think actually it should be "illegal" to have an exchange w/o gpg from now on.
mircea_popescu: but in the absolute-worst-case scenario, glbse is never heard from again, this will be a mess.
mircea_popescu: im sure he'd honor anything once there's a list of shareholders and we can work out ownership
pigeons: i think you'll have a much harder time getting paid for your glbse GIGAs, although I believe he will honor those too
pigeons: BTC-Mining: i believe giga will pay mircea_popescu to pay coupons on GIGA.ETF
mircea_popescu: i said there's not going to be any shareholders-pay upgrades
