imsaguy: mircea_popescu, you know as well as I do, that things won't run away forever
gesell: smickles: mircea_popescu might even help you by giving you a dump of the historical trades ;)
gesell: mircea_popescu: bitcoin-24
gesell: mircea_popescu: yeah i guess i should understand how sdice works
gesell: mircea_popescu: yeah feels like a lot of day traders around (or that type of fervant observation)
gesell: mircea_popescu: yeah that is the means for exploring signing up with you. im just curious if investors can get a headsup when this starts, or at least when its going to happen. rather than just refreshing the mpex website all the time
gesell: mircea_popescu: is any part of the process and application for ipos public, posted as news, by you or them? or is it pretty much until it happens. i mean, even knowing when a new company will release ipos there might be a nice way to get an alert
PsychoticBoy: <mircea_popescu> and also why put up with idiots a la PsychoticBoy eskimoblob etc filling up the forum with nonsense<< LOL
gesell: mircea_popescu: do you see any new companies coming into the mpex fold? also i assume you just avoid including all the miner pools, correct?
smickles: mircea_popescu: oh, i was confused. I thought that blockchain chart was one of those thinkercharts you used earlier
smickles: mircea_popescu: you really like to use those charts now, eh?
pizzaman1337: mircea_popescu: I have a present for you in your mailbox :)
gesell: mircea_popescu: how often does the mpex RSS update. not showing a lot of recent trades
gesell: "(15:26:46) mircea_popescu: you can't bet on people dieing omg" seriously? isnt this why bitcoin was created in the first place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Bell
pigeons: what is the bitbet.us link to if mircea_popescu lives to 2150?
thestringpuller: do you expect to be alive in 2150 mircea_popescu ?
mircea_popescu: <mjr_> since everyone and there mom throws around the 21 million number << that number will be reached sometime in 2150
gesell: thanks mircea_popescu and pigeons
pigeons: also see proposed OTC WoT v2 from #bitcoin-wot and privwiki.dreamhosters.com/wiki/Distributed_Web_of_Trust_Proposal_2
jurov: <mircea_popescu> [11:04:46] mjrIII bitfloor is a bitcoinica clone running stolen code <<< you confuse it with bitfinex, no?
gesell: mircea_popescu: is that a pattern you think would repeat in 4 years at the next halving?
gesell: mircea_popescu: so to me there is a lot of new activity from current and established users putting more of the weight into the play
gesell: mircea_popescu: yeah, ive noticed that this jump in value doesnt really equate to massive influx of new users. for sure there are new users due to increased interest from first of year but not like what causes previous bubles. http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/17kt5n/bitcoinorg_downloads_spiked_at_2011_bubble_not_now/
maximian: mircea_popescu: did something just change on mpex? pympex is broken.
gesell: mircea_popescu: ooh, rss. thanks. that's a bit easier
gesell: mircea_popescu: yeah noticed his graphs.fairnough. just was wondering the state of things for getting data. == log this chan. tis okay
gesell: mircea_popescu: is there a log of assbot logs of bits on this channel? just curious how one would build and analyze historical data on their own
gesell: mircea_popescu: btw do you block access to your blog from certain IP's? when im on from home (which is via a proxy at all times, out of my control) I cant get to your blog. but now, i can (in a different location atm)
Bowjob: http://gifsoup.com/webroot/animatedgifs/566764_o.gif
StarenseN: -_-
rng29a: mircea_popescu: thanks, blockchain.info showed 2 already, but my bet appeared shortly after that
smickles: mircea_popescu: actually, it changed in 1981
dub: mircea_popescu: wizkid was trolling
dub: mircea_popescu: MAFF
smickles: mircea_popescu: the only thing i have against gingers is that there is more humor revolving around gingers than mutt-american
smickles: mircea_popescu: http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2013/01/17/Zimbabwe-clinic-cleared-of-goblins/UPI-22371358443628/ << better
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: Calling them names isn't helpful given the brutal oppression involved.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: By the methods of identity collapse as they stand, yes, it comingles wallets and makes A B C D ... X all appear to be G
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: No, not a single wallet.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: Hey man that's a false analogy. But if you want to rhetorically accept the "identity collapse" thing, fine. Go on then and make your point, I'll listen.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: It means that gmaxwell can't prove to buffett that he owns those coins; and that his purpose isn't to put on a tweed coat and a bowler's hat and smoke a pipe and say he's rich.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: The mathematics of it makes it impossible.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: But it would be an advantage to join with all those people and withdraw, you are correct.
smickles: mircea_popescu: I believe it's more accurate to say that control of coins goes from one txid to another, rather than one address to another. the fact that it's known which address is associated with wich txid at this time is incidental
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: Presumably you could, if you wanted, just decide to keep it.
smickles: mircea_popescu: the trail is by txid, addresses are just incidental
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: It is cryptographically secure; and, actually, gmaxwell is taking a bit of a risk doing it.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: right. but it has other uses, too.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: A little while ago, dub was saying he doesn't understand gmaxwell's mixer thing. It's not really a mixer, it's guaranteed to be essentially impossible to disentangle those sorts of transactions due to the fungibility of bitcoin.
smickles: mircea_popescu: then we could structure it in a way that we have people in situations where the might likely have sex without being prompted, it would make it larger, take longer and be more expensive
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu he was just here
smickles: mircea_popescu: if women fuck better in highheels, I'm willing to bet that it's just a (possibly localized) social phenomenon
mircea_popescu: burnside_afk are you like, paying him to troll me ?
markedathome: mircea_popescu: i just thought it was funny that I could get those words out of the way the addresses were arranged.
markedathome: clearly, dooglus is trying to out mircea_popescu as the mystery player, why else can I get "MPEX pay SDICE with SMPOE" out of the addresses listed in #782
jurov: hi mircea_popescu, got a question about x.idiffs

mircea_popescu: Bugpowder_ its one of two things : either a scam to sell a worthless site to some dumbass "investor" (which is what i suspect, he;'s been buying his own gem)
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder_ you sure you actually had the cash ?
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder_ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=139529.msg1485624#msg1485624 i take it you're buying ? :p
jurov: mircea_popescu, http://live.coinbr.com/images/bitcoin_law.pdf , page 3
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder_ something like that. you're thinking "momentarily one is zero" this is true, but whiplash could make someone lose on both ends
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder_ sort of a dampening factor.
