EskimoBob: mircea_popescu: is pulling crap out of his ass and is delusional enough
to believe it's all
true
Luceo: EskimoBob: I know it's fast conversation in here sir, but
try
to keep up
EskimoBob: Luceo: who
told you I am a banker?
mircea_popescu: Luceo i guess we're not supposed
to remember
things from
the day before.
EskimoBob: mircea_popescu: you are always yapping even if you have nothing of value
to add
Luceo: I know bankers who spend more
than
that at dinner...
Luceo: Sorry, I couldn't stop laughing at
the idea of a banker
talking about raising 12k eur ^^
DeaDTerra: Anyone want
to sell pirate assets?
mircea_popescu: DeaDTerra just having a little fun at
the expense of
the wannabes.
copumpkin: oh surprise surprise, people being pleasant on
the internet
mircea_popescu: so basically your
theory here is
that you're an ex banker with
typically white
trash mental representations.
EskimoBob: and how is
this even related
to what ever you
two asshats are so worked up about?
mircea_popescu: EskimoBob wait. didn't your online persona include some floor
trading ? weren't you some retired financier ?
EskimoBob: so what is it for you? You like
to participate or just jerk off here?
Luceo: Yes, because I'm
the one struggling
to 'raise' $12,000?
EskimoBob: sorry, so you have
to play in a cardboard box...
too fkn bad
Luceo: My mom doesn't have a basement, sorry.
Try again.
EskimoBob: Luceo: what ever
this imaginary money you use in your moms basement
to buy "exotic pets" ...
Luceo: So what's
this project he needs
to raise 12k for? :P
mircea_popescu: Luceo flavour of
the week is gypsy. i
think last week it was greek.
Luceo: EskimoBob: Umm, what are you
talking about?
mircea_popescu: nevertheless,
there exist people who, should
they wish
to spend half a mass market car's worth on something, just go ahead and do it.
Luceo: Withdraw it from
the bank
mircea_popescu: i guess your silly stereotypes are
the reason you have
to "raise" 12k
to piss away on some side project you'll get bored with in a week.
EskimoBob: fuuck, we need
to rise 12K EUR
to get
this going

T elementz: this might be a dumb question, but looking at
the site i am a bit lost ;-)
elementz: mircea_popescu: so
to get back
to mpex; so i could buy a low volume put option
there? lets say 5btc. are
there any options with a short
term expiration date?
mircea_popescu: i meant
transactions in
the financial sense, btc for usd or what have you
mircea_popescu: i didn't mean "all
transactions seen in
the blockchain"
EskimoBob: are you adding all non exchange
transactions
to OTC?

mircea_popescu: and
the reason
that is
the case is
the fact
that irl people don't just hand
their money
to any random dood.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't happen irl because
the people who own
that much are sane and don't do
this sort of shit
mircea_popescu: that aside, if i were
to sell 5.5% of any stock it would drop significantly
too.
elementz: but i guess most people use mtgox as a reference for
their price, no?
mircea_popescu: mt gox is really not
the be all-end all. plenty of btc moves otc etc.
elementz: so how come he could move
the price so much
then? if he actually did
that at all
elementz: hmm. so about 5.5% percent of
total btc were
tied up in pirates operation.

mircea_popescu: no actually now it's rallying nefario . dropped earlier
to ~8.x
nefario: wow is
the price of BTC dropping like a rock
elementz: ok, so how big was
the whole pirate operation
though?
mircea_popescu: elementz
the various bonds offered on pirate are really a
tiny part of
the pie.
elementz: so does anyone know, when
the pirate bond really picked up
traction? can it be correlated with
the pricetrend over
the last year somehow? did anybody
try
this at all?

BTC-Mining: I don't mind price going down, I'll buy some more at 4-5 like in
the good old days.
elementz: so
the only way would be via mpex.
mircea_popescu: what if
this isn't really a pirate
thing but gox got hacked again !?
mircea_popescu: not really. some people do options for stocks ocasionally, but it's in general among
trusted parties.
elementz: what about otc? are
there people doing it?
