mircea_popescu: mjr_ amuysingly, people are still proposibng that bitcoin financials be handled by "colored coins:"

TradeFortress: mjr_ backward compatibity should be a right IMO

TradeFortress: mjr_ I still don't like how I can't use v0.3 or something. and not be able to get on the bitcoin network

TradeFortress: mircea_popescu, that is a problem when there's really only one bitcoin client

mircea_popescu: mjr_ what if i tell you that

TradeFortress: mircea_popescu, I'm guessing owner bet a lot of coins on them shipping.

mircea_popescu: mjr_ i don't think they had a choice tbh.

mircea_popescu: mjr_ perhaps.

mircea_popescu: mjr_ it's not they could have. they in fact did. (and not the bitcoin foundation either, that's an irrelevant little scam by now)

mircea_popescu: mjr_ but to make that work in the case at hand, parish head told people to vote for x, they did.

bgupta: mircea_popescu: You are correct I don't understand.. I only understand the technical issue with the fork, not the economic or social implications.. is there a more theorough analysis out there?

TradeFortress: mircea_popescu, add bitcoinrain to the mix

nanotube: mircea_popescu: re: sun - the solar radius is about .005 AU, and the coronal edge is about 2 solar radii away from sun surface, according to my googling. so .01 AU for light to get from photosphere to coronal edge.

nanotube: mircea_popescu: heh actually, i should double check that.

nanotube: mircea_popescu: i've got all the planets and other major solar system features all set out, too.

nanotube: mircea_popescu: :)

kakobrekla: mjr_ is how bitcoinland rolls

kakobrekla: O_o

Lyspooner: you posted not too long ago, mircea_popescu, that these types of monthly gains shouldn't be that surprising if this crazy currency was to become widely accepted

Lyspooner: mircea_popescu, add some strikes, quick

saulimus: Bugpowder_, where was his bid before?

Bugpowder_: jesus. http://bitcoincharts.com/charts/mtgoxUSD/accumulated_orderbook.png

thestringpuller: Bugpowder_: is a guru listen to him

thestringpuller: Bugpowder_: what's the move? still calls?

mjr_: Bugpowder_: yeah thats what i was thinking

Bugpowder_: mjr_: but deposit requirements increase for puts that are deeper in the money. I haven't yet figured out the optimal play there.

Bugpowder_: mjr_: because the deposit capital requirements for puts are not precisely reported

Bugpowder_: mjr_ selling puts is a little murky

unbalanced: Note: big bubble run-ups *begin* with a lot of media attention. As in, going hyperbolic from *here*. See start of 3rd phase on chart http://people.hofstra.edu/jean-paul_rodrigue/images/bubblesandmanias.gif

mircea_popescu: hi mjr_III

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo_ i'm not really sure it works that way

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo_ which one ?

bgupta: mircea_popescu: This articly sorta matches what I am thinking but it uses the term money instead of currency. http://www.businessinsider.com/is-bitcoin-money-2013-4

bgupta: unless this is wrong http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solidus_(coin)

Ukto: mircea_popescu: correct. :)

benkay: how do those statements accomplish the above, mircea_popescu?

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: you can't become wealthy in one lifetime

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: but that's only the case if you pass wealth down throughout generations

benkay: mircea_popescu?

thestringpuller: Why do you always scare off Bugpowder mircea_popescu

bgupta: mircea_popescu: Prolly not.. link?

bgupta: mircea_popescu: Ok let's flip this around. What is your definition of a "good currency"?

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: it seems bitcoin is redistributing wealth

bgupta: mircea_popescu: ^^ typo.. anyway, that's not to say it can't grow into a good currency

bgupta: micea_popescu: what is the purpose of a currency? My understanding is that it is to facilitate day to day commerce. Buying eggs and bread and shit, so people don't have to barter. For this purpose, it sucks. Remember the volitility is not just in one direction..

Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: I agree with their assesment

bgupta: mircea_popescu: As long as the price remains so unstable it's going to be challenged as a day to day currency.

bgupta: mircea_popescu: Interestingly the author is long btc.. anyway, the point is you don't need to accept that btc has the characteristics that make a currency useful, to see that it is useful. It seems to trade like a hybrid between some collectible, a currency, and a early stage startup's equity.

kakobrekla: O_o

smickles: you really wanna start talking about set theory mircea_popescu ?

smickles: mircea_popescu: well, i gotta complain about something ;)

smickles: < mircea_popescu> <smickles> "1.0 BTC for 0 O.USD.P086T" << you're kinda misusing that. it's not really intended to do 1 contract at a time. do 1k. <<< i'm not sure i'd want to do 1k if i can't predict what i'm going to get out of it

kakobrekla: but anyway https://btc-e.com/exchange/ltc_btc

ThickAsThieves: in case you missed it http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=y1POVoi9NPk

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu : since mpoe is like "ground" in that option hedges flow to it, one could provide a second tier of insurance to the bondholders. Essentially cutting up the exposure and selling it off...

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu i think you have provided an opportunity given you don't hedge
