BTC-Mining: Not going to start again =/
Luceo: The loan can increase or decrease in $ value by far more than 1% in a week :P
DeaDTerra: Every month in the Bitcoin economy is a year in real life :P
BTC-Mining: Yes, I suppose I could go up to 1%... still seems like a lot at 52% per year however.
DeaDTerra: as long as you have some reputation and you can guarantee that you can pay it back
BTC-Mining: It's 28x the rate my bank would provide loans with.
BTC-Mining: I hate that answer ;P
kakobrekla: 7% seems to work ;>
BTC-Mining: Ah, this channel is sleeping
BTC-Mining: What's the lowest rate people would require on a loan?
BTC-Mining: On a side note, I still have my 0.5% weekly loan bonds that are not selling. Currently backed at 13990:1
BTC-Mining: But yes, it would also have disdvantages too
BTC-Mining: As such, being able two place multiple bid on the same balance would be interesting to insure you can buy the first that gets an ask coming in.
BTC-Mining: That's half true. Suppose price is 1 and 2 on different shares and you have 18 BTC. You might want to buy those at 0.9 BTC or 1.8BTC each, with no preference as to which to buy first.
usagi: it will be the source of many issues hehe
BTC-Mining: and database queries tend to be intensive all around
usagi: but all the remaining bids could be cleared at the same time by a key number
usagi: well, same thing ithink
BTC-Mining: It might get processing intensive however checking with each transaction the funds remaining and removing other bids accordingly.
BTC-Mining: If he does that, any issue with low volume of bids would pretty much be gone.
Obsi: yes that will be nice
BTC-Mining: I heard a rumor nefario is working on a new feature allowing to place multiple bids on different shares with the same funds
BTC-Mining: and if it was out of the usual range
BTC-Mining: depending if only the last trade is included
Obsi: don't forget to have it alert when the 5 day is 0
BTC-Mining: 5 day is there. Maybe I should make a small script for greasmonkey using the onpage 5 day average... trigerring when submitting the buy/sell form
BTC-Mining: I meant the 7 day average
BTC-Mining: Not sure the 5 day average is already loaded on page but eh
toffoo: that's not a bad idea. you could argue any trading system should have that kind of feature, but most dont
toffoo: I would be a lot richer man today if I could go back and reverse all those fat-finger, bad big figure, or typo trades I've done. those can be expensive mistakes.
BTC-Mining: I however would like to see a setting allowing to set a % over/under market price at which it triggers a confirmation screen to pop. It would be as simple as a lightweight javascript checking the 7 day average and comparing if it's x% over or under your current setting.
BTC-Mining: Yes, just like stock exchange, I think transactions should not be reversable (barring hacking/stolen funds)
toffoo: sounds like you did the right thing
BTC-Mining: I lost money selling shares at .12 instead of 1.12 (made for a nice loss). Most people recommended to request a reversal. I however think such transactions should not be reversable and I didn't request it.
toffoo: what kind of "error" are we talking here?
BTC-Mining: Also, public poll: Who here thinks transactions on GLBSE made in error should not be reversed?
BTC-Mining: When are their asics planned?
DeaDTerra: last call the bulk will be traded tomorrow
DeaDTerra: any else want to bulk order ASICMINER and get the shares for 0.09 BTC?
kakobrekla: as looking to find apropriate words
kakobrekla: its not 'where' as you typed but 'how'
MoneyIsDebt: useful to know
MoneyIsDebt: kakobrekla: How would a male say: "where should i put it" in the same dialect?
bitfoo: because dropping to 6% could cause an irrecoverable bank run
bitfoo: didn't want any more exposure to pirate
bitfoo: no, just to help
brendio: Did you want to invest some more or only to help me out?
brendio: I just need to manage redemptions etc now
bitfoo: I was going to offer some if you needed more
brendio: I increased my own personal exposure a bit temporarily
bitfoo: good to know!
brendio: I'm at 7% even with the new levels
bitfoo: how's the funding situation looking?
dub: was going to ask if it gets cold inside as a result
MoneyIsDebt: Used to leaving the front door open etc.
MoneyIsDebt: Hackers (crackers) being anti-authoritarian should be supporting bitcoin. Show some solidarity to the project.
MoneyIsDebt: Also, it's keeping me from investing bigger amounts. Now, I'm only buying what I'd be able to get over by cursing for half a minute or so.
dub: the differences with bitcoin are that its an easy target to gain monetary value directly, there are a lot of stupid children implementing bitcoin services and a lot more people willing to blindly invest in them
MoneyIsDebt: thus I'm more worried about hacks in this "world"
MoneyIsDebt: bitcoins (and glbse assets) are the exception
dub: ubisoft could be looking at some serious loss for backdooring all of their customers
dub: when blizzard gets its database stolen I expect it costs them quite a lot
MoneyIsDebt: you mean all other economies put together? That's hardly fair
bitfoo: surely BTC wins under that metric
bitfoo: also, consider amount of hacks / total size of economy
MoneyIsDebt: yes, but in that world you have insurance and such
MoneyIsDebt: scary with the number of hacks in the bitcoin world
MoneyIsDebt: or, more to the point, why
MoneyIsDebt: how did that happen
Obsi: so wait... we have to buy BTC on SR with BTC if that happens?
mircea_popescu: but you neverk now. yet another mtgox hack. one large player deciding to quit
mircea_popescu: i doubt it too, esp with the reward halving
mircea_popescu: i am really curious to see if btc price drops
kakobrekla: it will be reflected by one or combo of the following: btc price drop, diff rise, reward halving
mircea_popescu: anyway, kakobrekla : look at the daily 100mhash revenue
Obsi: I've seen some single accounts throw around 250+ Ghash on the pools
mircea_popescu: Obsi those are mostly prototype units
Obsi: I thought ArtForz claimed to have asics last year?
mircea_popescu: and the asics offered are really closer to fpgas than real asics.
mircea_popescu: not that many asics are actually online yet.
mircea_popescu: mostly because the nutso forum community is living on images, and images are asic companies expectations
mircea_popescu: for some reason the total hash output is notreflectign this yet
kakobrekla: yeah but its cheaper and cheaper to run hashing machines
mircea_popescu: take into account the price wnet up 2x
kakobrekla: all the time
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i meant in the future, it is going down, not in the continous
kakobrekla: ok not too bad
BTC-Mining: hmm... is there email notices when you receive a message in your GLBSE inbox?
kakobrekla: or the price wil pop hard or the diff will be driven even higher
EskimoBob: low enough so you can probably never get your investment back (if you buy a GPU to mine)
kakobrekla: i can identify several factors causing this
kakobrekla: its too high.
kakobrekla: also imho there is something wrong with current mining profitablitly
mircea_popescu: that is certainly true.
kakobrekla: >true "end-game" performance would be magnitude cheaper than BFL's offer.
Obsi: the thing is... what kind of differences will his optimizations bring? Will they outweigh the profits of being a buyer of the first ASIC to market?
Obsi: or drc tech company
kakobrekla: told you it was technical.
Obsi: what does the Democratic Republic of the Congo have to do with this?
