mircea_popescu: and i contemplate leaving it to freefloat.
mircea_popescu: the limit was 2% but it was moved in may to 5%
mircea_popescu: if there's not enough to fill in i step in and supply the capital.
mircea_popescu: a a. normaly the options are financed by a sort of bond auction
BTC-Mining: Says there you're lending funds to MPOE for a 2% premium for the purpose of having the funds need for all ongoing open calls
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2012/sa-ne-jucam-de-a-investitiile-n-bitcoini/#comment-78745 go there look for where it says "bonds"
Ignatius-otc1: ahh, ty
mircea_popescu: in no way, Ignatius-otc1. it finances the options sold.
mircea_popescu: srsly, read the explanation in that last link i put up
Ignatius-otc1: Is that a pirate related bond mircea_popescu?
mircea_popescu: you're better off putting your money there than hussling for .5 a week
Ignatius-otc1: in that case get a bulk discount and im in
BTC-Mining: No, stricly for trading with the funds.
mircea_popescu: mail order gf from the ukraine
BTC-Mining: Bye the way, no one interested in giving perpetual loan to me for 0.5% weekly? I have very good backings eh
Ignatius-otc1: I would like options access but currently mpex is out of my budget. Hopefully in the future...
mircea_popescu: o, yea, and you can also get margin (provided you're an established trader).
Ignatius-otc1: 0.2% xfer fee at glbse I think
mircea_popescu: it's also the only place where you can trade options, the only place where you have margins, and i don't recall if transfers are still free or not on glbse, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: if you'll trade more than 2,5k or so you're better off on mpex
Ignatius-otc1: ahh far lower fees, ok thanks
mircea_popescu: if you will trade less than about 2k btc you're better off on glbse
mircea_popescu: i think it's pretty simple, on glbse you get free account and 1% fees round trip. on mpex you have to ante 20 btc and fee is .2% round trip.
Ignatius-otc1: Sorry for my ignorance, but I currently trade on the GLBSE and there are no fees to have an account there. What is the purpose of the 20BTC fee for an account?
mircea_popescu: what do you mean the explanation ?
Ignatius-otc1: Can you explain that or link me to the explanation for such a large fee?
mircea_popescu: if anything it will increase in time. i haven't yet because the btc doubled.
Ignatius-otc1: mircea_popescu: is there still a 20BTC fee to open an account with MPEX? I found someone with an account who would place orders there for me, but he wnated 10% roundtrip.
mircea_popescu: but the halving is in writing.
mircea_popescu: i'd be more worried about december halving. i don't think at the curent bumbling pace the various companies will manage to deliver enough asics for diff to double
BTC-Mining: We're waiting for the ASICs
mircea_popescu: i hold quite a few gigavps bonds but im hedged entirely, just the depositary.
mircea_popescu: the reason i wouldnt put money in mining atm is that i imagine they will be hit by a double whammy of deprecviation
BTC-Mining: or so says the contract
BTC-Mining: Yes, quite simply mining it seems... look at that, JTME takes 25% of shares... + deducts all expenses before giving dividend
mircea_popescu: o i see, btc-mining. what's that, miner ?
BTC-Mining: I don't know, there's so many tickers I don't follow/watch on GLBSE
Ignatius-otc1: Your asset on the glbse, it's BTC-MINING right?
mircea_popescu: whats that, jtme ?
mircea_popescu: i think the revenue is mostly share appreciation
BTC-Mining: I was referring to the the purchase in my own issue by the way which happened just a bit before
BTC-Mining: I just noticed there was .ETF just before you asked
mircea_popescu: [GLBSE] [MPOE.ETF] 100 @ 1.5 = 150 BTC [+] << that's what i was talking about.
BTC-Mining: I think we're not talking about the same things
mircea_popescu: BTC-Mining i was pretty sure it was .1 ? back in the old random allocation days ?
mircea_popescu: anyway what the fuck is this, who buys guns that they can't dissasemble/reassemble ?!
mircea_popescu: hehe BTC-Mining was that you ?
mircea_popescu: "The requirement for the customer to assemble the weapon also hampers usability" ok this is the stupidest thing i ever hear
mircea_popescu: o wow, there was a first SR arrest ?
mircea_popescu: in a good month they beat giga hehe
BTC-Mining: Lots of earning on those options it seems
mircea_popescu: yeah it's my old options page turned full exchange.
BTC-Mining: hmm, what are the MPOE? Options? Ah...
BTC-Mining: Hmm, ideally, create one share per (minimum investment value) and split it to current holders
mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=64962.60 there, for mpoe results.
DeaDTerra: GBF is no where, but we plan to register on GLBSE later on possible.
mircea_popescu: lemme dig them up
mircea_popescu: <assbot> [GLBSE] [MPOE.ETF] 475 @ 1.12 = 532 BTC [+] << that.
mircea_popescu: dude, srsly. there's exactly one business in btc world making k's of btc a month. that's mpoe.
BTC-Mining: FPGA, meh, no. Because it's fixed to FPGA and with ASICs coming soon...
BTC-Mining: Already got 30 shares and might only buy a few every now and then
mircea_popescu: so what are you trying to buy ?
BTC-Mining: Well if anyone has bulk volume to sell, I need to purchase more stock
DeaDTerra: it's all paid at the end of the loan then 3000$ is paid back
mircea_popescu: whoa nelly. who did that ?
DeaDTerra: it's all paid off in the end
mircea_popescu: so till march ? did you get july coupon ?
mircea_popescu: DeaDTerra did you talk to copumpkin about buying the loan ? i think he was trying to get a refinance business going
mircea_popescu: actually, is there any evidence of matthew n wright ever paying a loan back ?
DeaDTerra: I have been working on selling it off for the last couple of weeks but the liquidity has been very low xD I guess that doesn't matter now anyways, I just hope the investors gets some kind of payment back.
Chaang-Noi: ill invest with you again deadt but only after this gets cleared up and that loan to matthew gets taken off the books, i highly doubt he will pay it back
DeaDTerra: Indeed, I will do my best to try to wrap this up, but considering that's what I have been doing for the last couple of months I don't think it will help much ... sigh
DeaDTerra: oh well, done is done. It's easy to be smart in retrospect.
DeaDTerra: I will, I will never put my name on something I don't controll, and if I do it has to be clearly stated that I only do x and y. Because with rebate suddenly instead of a team and a massive budget we had a confused investor (that's me) and a single developer.
Chaang-Noi: jro and matthew w should not be trusted :/
mircea_popescu: and everyone should. all this supporting people you aren't married to... srsly.
mircea_popescu: learn from that, srsly.
DeaDTerra: Yea, when I realized there were cracks I should have stepped away, instead of trying to improve it trying to force justice and development.
rg: i need to pay a $600 bill
rg: and realized that a stock trading channel is probably not the best place to make it
DeaDTerra: Thank you, Feels good to know that people don't doubt my trust even though I did a major fuck up.
rg: i was just about to make a joke
DeaDTerra: Well I have learnt, hopefully this will never happen agai for me.
rg: before they start handing over their moneyt
Chaang-Noi: and dead, you were about the only person who i let have my coins
rg: all i did was ask people to ask questiions
rg: from the beginning
rg: it just stunk to me
DeaDTerra: When then things started to go worse, I thought it was just some development errors it will soon be fixed. The actual truth that a rebate was not being developed and b ZipConf didn't work as intended was not told. Instead they said it's being worked on or being delayed.
DeaDTerra: Well, when I first started with JRO he has a team, he had a vision and a sound idea. So I helped him, I put my ass on the line. I invested heavily into him.
mircea_popescu: DeaDTerra i still don't see why you'd bother from the get go.
Chaang-Noi: this was not shock to some
Chaang-Noi: rg i posted on the forum that his "magic" was bs and made clear mathew w was in the pay of jro for setting up the scam...
DeaDTerra: Yes my decisions have might have been questionable but I have always made them for the right reason. Always pushing for justice for the share holders.
DeaDTerra: For Rebate he disapeared and I had no contact for a long time then he got back and told me Alberto was now in charge and I have been workign with it ever since to try to make it correct
mircea_popescu: rg : that's what Chaang-Noi said. you shoudl team up
mircea_popescu: well the owens guy is awol or w/e.
DeaDTerra: Yes I was kind of covering for him, he told me things was delayed and that it would soon be up and running. naively I belived him and as long as he payed the dividends i thought it was okay. This is for ZIP.A
rg: zipconf turned out to be shit?
mircea_popescu: just the zip thing.
