furuknap: This is the halving effect I've been touting for the past few weeks in practice. We know that once a more powerful bond comes online, the less powerful bonds will drop in dividends. It's simple math, plus and minus. So why aren'
t anyone even noticing this?
furuknap: Then there's 100TH, which granted isn'
t delivering yet, but let's just forego that and chalk it up to risk and look at expected revenue. 100TH is fixed at 200MH/s, and if things go according to plan, that will be operational sometime this summer, let's sau August to pick a date.
qxzn: yes, but you won'
t beat my bots that way :)
qxzn: there are ways to game bots if you are clever, and the bot isn'
t defensively enough written
qxzn: There are a couple reasons to trade. 1: you are investing. In that case, you don'
t care about bots. 2: you are arbing/providing liquidity. in that case, you should have bots because it's more efficient in terms of human labor. 3: you are speculating / doing "thinky" fundamentals trading. see case 1.
qxzn: people "just don'
t like" bots
mircea_popescu: the human either has a side or doesn'
t. if he doesn'
t he;s not betting anyway.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t see the problem. people setting their own bots to marketmake provides liquidity.
qxzn: mircea_popescu I haven'
t looked closely at bitbet yet, but like getting the current odds and the sizes behind the odds, I suppose.
furuknap: A lot of people still trade on EMAs, as do bots. It's no clear prediction, but an indication. The world could end tomorrow, you don'
t stay away from trading just because of that.
furuknap: All EMAs still pointing upwards. 132 isn'
t going to be much of an issue.
deadweasel: well I don'
t know where you are and I still talk to you. ;P
deadweasel: lol, no doubt. as long as I can keep taking my cut, I don'
t care. it may not be BTC that is the future currecny, but one of it's cousins.
deadweasel: truffles, that is why I don'
t have the energy. I did 4 hours of intense training last night, my knees barely support me today.
deadweasel: i don'
t always have the energy for sexathons
deadweasel: I don'
t think superior is the correct word for it.
deadweasel: no no, just don'
t want to be with dramatic low-confidence people, it sucks the energy out of me. it's a waste of time. I can'
t help them and they will only drag me down.
Scrat: little jimmy that bought at 230 because he saw it on msnbc didn'
t really buy a whole lot
Scrat: fiat500: nop, these people don'
t hold any significant amounts
davout: ThickAsThieves: thank you, googled, but didn'
t think about a simple CTRL+F on the reddit thread
parseval: I saw that, it didn'
t even come up to a whole BTC for this div, at 9 btc paid out
assbot: Aren'
t those tins of tobacco right there behind you?
bdk_kluge: But there are TWO walls! You can'
t explain that!
bdk_kluge: They don'
t believe stability will aid in adoption and mid-term increase price?
bdk_kluge: Doesn'
t the double-wall generally indicate someone wants to manipulate us upward with fake stability? :p
bdk_kluge: Haven'
t they pretty much, already?
Chaaang-Noi: bdk_kluge> He just didn'
t give the hack excuse. he did not say anything much, we still dont know :/
bdk_kluge: How much would one of these balloons cost? What's involved in maintenance? I'm lacking towers in my area, and sure can'
t justify the cost of erecting one just for my own thing...
bdk_kluge: He just didn'
t give the hack excuse.
_aknap3: thestringpuller: I wouldn'
t know, to compare
Namworld: Coinroll has made 1/4th of SD profit so far this month. SD really isn'
t lucky this month.
Namworld: Nah, I don'
t think it's a scam.
Bugpowder: If you believe its truly a money tree scam where erik is recycling into it, then don'
t buy
Bugpowder: although on a volume weighted basis that isn'
t true
Namworld: If they can'
t do that, why would they pay 100x weekly revenue?
mircea_popescu: "What is the acronym "OTC?" I haven'
t heard that one yet..."
mircea_popescu: benkay_ oix only counts options sold by bot. people have been mostly shorting this month, so bot didn'
t sell much of anything
fiat500: jcpham: hrmz, that article doesn'
t really say anything
fiat500: WILLdude: i was lying about that 11btc, please don'
t aknap3: it's awesome -- need a group of people. Even if you have played the game before and you know all the details you can'
t stop the wild fluctuations in supply and demand
optimator: aknap3: of course, you are right. you can'
t fight it
optimator: ThickAsThieves: I'm not saying I didn'
t take a profit... but damn! 2.45
aknap3: not trying to be a pain, but doesn'
t the stockholder agreement say we can transfer in an out?
burnside: yeah, that's true. I don'
t have many spares on my side tho.
assbot: It's so strange that you don'
t remember any of your poetry.
BitHub: wouldn'
t be that hard, we found kenfrom cryptoexechange
BitHub: yeah i dont know why these guys haven'
t it this way, annoying
ericmuyser: BTC0xygen: I dont get it you want people to WORK for FREE? doesn'
t that scare you?
furuknap: No, but that's because the herd doesn'
t realize it.
furuknap: Even at half that, and let's guess that every competitor fails for the next three years, in three years, AM revenue must go down because hw sales won'
t be as profitable and block reward goes down.
Bugpowder: They don'
t all start that way, but they all end that way.
furuknap: I live in Scandinavia, I know the culture, and running a scam like that wouldn'
t be even close to feasible.
furuknap: No, but that's the change that might be useful. If they intend to float a new hardware asset, that would require a lot of overhead and time to build confidence, which isn'
t easy for hardware startups.
furuknap: That depends. If they hold shares in the company, the rise in share prices would be profitable and they wouldn'
t have to worry about floating a new asset.
furuknap: So far, yes. But wasn'
t AM also that in the early beginning before the IPO? Chaang?
qxzn: argh. why can'
t people code?
DeaDTerra: I loaded off 2.6k on the market within 2 days I guess that it couldn'
t handle it and started to give away. I always posted asks so I did not stand for the selling into bids, that was the people who lost faith and paniced.
DeaDTerra: Either you invest! in which case the price of the market doesn'
t matter as you believe in the underlieing company and that it will suceed.
furuknap: Sure, but there has also been 3000 shares moved to BTCT recently. No idea what other markets get, but that's a lot of selling power, and I can'
t imagine any other reason why people would move shares into a PT if not because they want to sell.
cole_albon: if someone were to execute an in the money call on mpex exchange. what happens next? how do dollars get into mpex to make the buy? I know it's a dumb question, and probably offensively dumb, but I can'
t find instructions anywhere for this
furuknap: I mean, most of the people that have been rushing the AM price these last couple of weeks have no idea how to value anything. They'll see a 43% drop in dividends and freak out, realizing the beanstalk doesn'
t grow into the heavens.
furuknap: Selling down 40 shares coesn'
t really require extensive skill... What is sad, though, is that someone bought TAT.AM on BTCT for the equivalent of ฿3.33.
furuknap: It's all over BNBN, haven'
t you hear?
KRS-1: Or entire teams get dismissed because performance or expectations haven'
t been met by poor leadership.
KRS-1: if its one thing i've noticed since i've entered the job market in the late 80's til now is that management has gotten shitty..and they won'
t think twice about making their shit roll downhill onto the employees. i've seen good people lose their jobs over shitty managers who throw them under the bus.
mjr_: which results in employees doing things that don'
t make sense because they have no clue what they are doing
davout: naaah, don'
t make me say what i did not say
davout: and we never touch it, we can'
t spend it, we can serve it as a static HTML page, plugs itself into blockchain.info for all bitcoin related needs
mircea_popescu: it woudln'
t be a bad service, if someone were to make it in ON A SANE PLATFORM
Namworld: I can'
t write calls without shares...
dub: didn'
t actually check
furuknap: Volume doesn'
t gewnerate money.
Namworld: Oops, didn'
t mean to crush you
mircea_popescu: i don'
t see ghow this disproves the "his contribution is nil" part.
mircea_popescu: i can'
t believe people still care about the fat german kid.
bdk_kluge: Hope he doesn'
t sue for infringement!
Lizardbitcoin: then he was like I'm not joe... well who are you... don'
t remember too much more I was 11
