RogueAI: it would be nice if the devs were more interested in faster confirmations from the core network
PeanutPower: i'm working on that :P from an LTC perspective :)
RogueAI: I dislike agreeing with Atlas but I'm just going to ignore that foundation
boonies4u: I think one or two does
boonies4u: PeanutPower: we need more games that use it ingame
noagendamarket: bitcoin is justa tool you can use :P
RogueAI: imo, the mantra for BTC should be "medium of exchange for the internet"
noagendamarket: its not a tool to take down the state its a tool against bankers :P
RogueAI: why did they let this guy be a founder?
RogueAI: that has the scent of intelligence asset all ove rit
boonies4u: I don't want bitcoin to become centralized or regulated, but I also don't want it to be labeled as a tool to be used against the state
boonies4u: I don't want TBF to lead bitcoin to either extreme
RogueAI: ok that Jon Matonis bio is giving me creepy feelings about Gavin's past CIA talk
drekk: "Centralised. Here we are with the worlds most powerful distributed system with countless possibilities for expansion and yet we keep building an infrastructure with centralised components like we're still living in the dot com boom and practically every damn attack has been against centralised components." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=115430.msg1246227#msg1246227 ;)
copumpkin: he used to
RogueAI: maybe you should start seeding "John Matis is an idiot" around the internet
boonies4u: noagendamarket: it's probably too late for me
boonies4u: Jon Matonis, a founder of TBF, https://bitcoinfoundation.org/about/board
noagendamarket: yeah I wont be joining the foundation :P
RogueAI: I don't doubt that there are plenty of idiot people out there who won't understand that no one can speak for a inanimate trading unit
RogueAI: I once made the mistake of reading an issue at a laundromat
boonies4u: putting up articles like that is what will get us declared as terrorists
boonies4u: RogueAI: I have a problem with an organization politicizing bitcoin, which would be essentially throwing non-anonymous members and bitcoiners under the bus
RogueAI: boonies4u, you mean you have a problem with monetary tyranny, correct?
drekk: meh. think the bigger problem is centralization of PR/visibility to the outside
RogueAI: The network is pretty safe as long as the majority don't adopt a code release with centralizing features
boonies4u: noagendamarket: this is what I have a problem with http://www.forbes.com/sites/jonmatonis/2012/10/04/bitcoin-prevents-monetary-tyranny/
noagendamarket: The lead dev being in charge of the bitcoin foundation doesnt help :P
BTC-Mining: I don't care about the voluntary nature of bitcoins, I care about the lack of centralization.
noagendamarket: just search and replace all uses of the word bitcoin lol
boonies4u: noagendamarket: what is this I don't even
noagendamarket: is it still bitcoin if you change the name of the client ?
boonies4u: it would remove the voluntary nature of bitcoin
boonies4u: I don't bitcoin to be an official currency by a country
bitcoinbear: make bitcoin the official curreny ofthe tribe
bitcoinbear: why must they be oblivious to tech?
BTC-Mining: It would make things interesting at least.
BTC-Mining: Make a tribe with your own language, never educate the kids about any word of english. If the first generation dies along with english before you are discovered, the next ones when discovered would be a completly non-english speaking, oblivious to technology, tribe of people from american descent...
bitcoinbear: but yes, I have seen coast gaurd out there
noagendamarket: I think the lakota indians seceeded again didnt they ?
noagendamarket: people break in to houses inn Australia because no one has guns and you can sue the house owner if you break a leg while stealing from them
bitcoinbear: how long would it take people to notice me way out there?
bitcoinbear: actually, the other day I was contemplating stealing one of the islands in Lake Michigan
boonies4u: sad but true
noagendamarket: bitcoiners dont do shit when you rip them, off...so people rip them off
boonies4u: what about tea, water, sun drop?
boonies4u: though it would be more attractive to use the plastic balls made out recycled materials
noagendamarket: I wondered why nefario asked what does the red button do the other day :P
BTC-Mining: And will have to get Pirate's identity through them.
RogueAI: my guess is they are in the public information gathering stage
BTC-Mining: They probably starting to have a bigger picture of what happened and info about the passthrough issuers.
RogueAI: we know that from the post-Madoff review
RogueAI: well they are slow
BTC-Mining: Odd... maybe they're so slow they haven't even yet figured who this "Pirateat40" is.
dub: pirate says the SEC havent contacted him
boonies4u: this could be a good chance to buy stocks from panic sellers
BTC-Mining: I would easily see this happening: after the weekend, Nefario comes back, looks at all the talks and would be something like: "What the heck? I put a notice not to panic! Look at the shiny new v3!"
boonies4u: we need a live ticker on the number of hairs on nefario's head
boonies4u: then he could say it was just normal maintenance, and that they shouldn't have overreacted
boonies4u: is GLBSE v3 the one with actually functioning blue,white,pink, and black markets?
BTC-Mining: or he screwed the rolling out of GLBSE v.3 and he's now in panic mode trying to make it work.
RogueAI: there has been no official reasoning, just that park page. boonies4u
noagendamarket: nefario wants to go regulated but others dont :P
BTC-Mining: You would have to be a very lousy and lazy thief to go away with just GLBSE's wallet.
RogueAI: that's to be expected, on a USD exchange the exchange doesn't horde the funds
boonies4u: ok, so no one knows why the page was put up?
BTC-Mining: I hardly see it profitable to just steal that even if it's a good few thousands BTC over going long term with GLBSE seriously.
noagendamarket: its simply a trading platform,
BTC-Mining: So there's far from the whole assets' value at any time in GLBSE's wallet.
BTC-Mining: The thing with GLBSE compared to trading platforms is that most put funds, buy some stocks, and the ops spends it outside GLBSE.
RogueAI: there was time between the two actions
boonies4u: so he delisted goat and shut down the site?
RogueAI: noagendamarket, the scary thing is that Nefario has used better systems in the past. So it appears from the outside that he was looking to hose over Goat.
RogueAI: I bet that makes you guys feel all warm and fuzzy, I R GR8 @ PR
RogueAI: then took the site down with this as the lead sentence on the parked page "For those worried about their bitcoin, please calm yourselves there has been no hack and your coins are safe and all accounted for."
RogueAI: delisted something in a terrible fashion
RogueAI: "How to ruin a business in minutes"
RogueAI: he should write a book to fund the PR position
noagendamarket: Nefario takes all the profit :P
boonies4u: here's to hoping glbse comes back up
BTC-Mining: Then we can claim/transact with the OP through signing with said BTC address/receiving payments there.
RogueAI: with the signed document as source
BTC-Mining: Nefario should provide a way to submit a BTC address to be given to OPs
RogueAI: so if any scammers or trolls confront, you can link to the transactions
noagendamarket: has to be gpg signed messages if anything.
noagendamarket: I wouldnt accept the code thing nefario is pushing
RogueAI: if it's a list, it needs to be a signed list of bitcoin addresses linked to holdings
BTC-Mining: I think I'll own a large portion of every assets.
BTC-Mining: I'm not really worrying too much.
boonies4u: nefario could turn back around and damage control could go quite smoothly
noagendamarket: its a good way to do it
BTC-Mining: It was the largest pool of funds for the large ASIC rigs.
BTC-Mining: It had a loan with one of the large serious miner, with an agreement for that hashing paying the dividends to be repurchased back at 100%
noagendamarket: ie it was fully backed by the bitcoins it holds :D
noagendamarket: Its funny that BTC-Mining had value because it didnt actually own hardware yet lol
drekk: why seems everybody to be so anti-cryptostocks? besides the fact i've only found two assets that i'd out money in
BTC-Mining: He can return them, but without a list of BTC-MINING holders, I cannot return anything.
noagendamarket: I suspected this was coming
BTC-Mining: and Amazingrando from Bitbond has those funds loaned to.
BTC-Mining: The problem is that 20000 USD + about ~10000 USD of my 18k was in BTC-MINING
