herbijudlestoids: ? thats exactly what i said would happen?
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: I believe this point came up in the -assets log earlier. You didn't need someone with 100 BTC to beat your efforts at Market Marking. All it took as someone with 0.015 BTC and some ATC.
kakobrekla: i have no idea what you said
herbijudlestoids: kakobrekla: isnt that wut i said
herbijudlestoids: BingoBoingo: the goal was to seed a microstructure, but if you dont want one, thats coo :) i can just lift the offers
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: My favorite part of this exercise is the one where I nao have moar ATC and BTC
mircea_popescu: i'm not shenaniganing.
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: I dunno
B007: kakobrekla: I do
kakobrekla: B007 i hope you feel proud!
B007: I made some dosh doing pump & dump

mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i'll sell you 1 pussy for 100 atc.
mircea_popescu: i had no idea there's ecosystem
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I'm just waiting for the next challenger to try to close the bid-ask spread
pankkake: well, I updated the makefile, older boost versions don't need that change
herbijudlestoids: now you took my bids i got no more bids
Apocalyptic: i wonder why atc does require libboost
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: They were executed after the sale at 110 satoshis. Because I had to target them at the exact price
herbijudlestoids: i own ~3000 more ATC than i did a few minutes ago
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: No, I just manually sniped your bids after that fail.
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: when i say no i mean low
Apocalyptic: yeah mircea, i'm not even joking
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: i tried to wipe out your bids with one limit order down to 111 satoshis and it skipped your bids and sold cheap ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i think we should ban kakobrekla because he is slanderous.
herbijudlestoids: Apocalyptic: if i can convince some other fuckers to be doing the same thing then it starts to roll
kakobrekla: i tell ya.
herbijudlestoids: i am not the only one with this game in mind it seems, someone has an algo waiting
herbijudlestoids: i am aware that there is a commission, yes...what does that have to do with the bid/ask spread?
pankkake: I thought you just had to bribe them
mircea_popescu: jurov the guarantee isn't that no city will be hit. in fact as i say above, at least one already has.
mircea_popescu: so i guess... it doesn't do much, after all.
mircea_popescu: decimation expensive i meant in an absolute sense.
mircea_popescu: so i can totally see arizona liberated by the las vegas cocksucker tribe.
decimation: We are talking 1600's or so? no I don't
mircea_popescu: i doubt us people will actually want russian boots in pennsylvania
decimation: I guess if everyone is at fault then nobody is at fault
decimation: yeah I think you are likely correct
davout: mircea_popescu: this i get
davout: haha i still don't get it ><
pankkake: http://www.singleape.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/american-apparel-deep-vneck-shirt.jpg and I don't wear those
decimation: I'm certainly a fan of peaceful transitions
davout: i don't know what you mean by cleavage
davout: mircea_popescu: i'll need to ask pankkake to explain this one to me
mircea_popescu: davout i like preaching to the converted, they have the best cleavage.
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: I can't guarantee I'll be awake that far into the future.
decimation: I think that's true to some extent - not so with elected officials though
herbijudlestoids: yey, i will ping you in ~8h
mircea_popescu: this, i am convinced, is the situation of the us academia : they tell each other they're smart,
herbijudlestoids: i also found a bug on openex last inght and lodged an issue on github
herbijudlestoids: BingoBoingo: i might try and make a lil market today
decimation: true, I guess if there is 100x growth, then who cares if the gov't takes 10%
decimation: I guess this stems from the root of the problem being that a tax on bitcoin is retarded
mircea_popescu: i see your ici and i raise you a trilema :
davout: Apocalyptic: yup, they be the police, i don't want to touch that with a ten foot pole
mircea_popescu: i mnean sure, they can continue talking to the scammers and be scammed till they're happy and had enough.
decimation: If I'm right, then the next leg up on the BTC/USD is going to happen when the trillions of $ in retirement accounts start washing into BTC; via Gresham's law
decimation: I know, but I'm contrary while I'm contrary
decimation: I'm an old man at heart
decimation: heh yeah I'm almost 35
decimation: As I grow older I've learned to perceive danger in banality
herbijudlestoids: i face one extra risk that say, you, dont
ThickAsThieves: plus if you mm there, i'll have someone to play with!
herbijudlestoids: i dont mind playing in new markets, but all businesses should be appropriately capitalised
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: i get the joke, its amusing. but i am not sure why you feel what im saying is an indication of trouble for me stepping outside my comfort zone
mircea_popescu: this i guess is somewhat counterintuitive
mircea_popescu: "babe, for 10k i make my own holes" ☟︎
ThickAsThieves: <mircea_popescu> ThickAsThieves you're the scamspert, do you like cryptsy ? <<<< i dont know any of the people doing any of em, but this morning i inquired with all of them
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: like i said. the market has no liquidity, which makes the only game in town worth playing, making markets. if i cant make on both sides of the book, then its basically me just selling ATC arbitrarily, or i gotta take some initial losses to generate BTC from ATC sales and use those small amount of BTC to make the bids
mike_c: mircea_popescu: the "vendor expoliting tx malleability until our wallet was empty" was the silk road excuse, not the mtgox excuse i believe
Bugpowder: I like cryptsy's order matching
pankkake: I guess I could use btc-e for what I do (sell primecoin)
pankkake: so I am forced to use that horrible interface
Apocalyptic: <mircea_popescu> Bugpowder nah, i don't think we like cryptsy. // we certainly don't
pankkake: I use cryptsy… but it's so broken
KRS-One: i think crypsy sucks ass
herbijudlestoids: i dun think we do
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder nah, i don't think we like cryptsy.
herbijudlestoids: unless i have the fund to make my own market
pankkake: what, under 500 satoshi?! I should have sold all my stuff to jurov!
herbijudlestoids: or do i have to take some ATC hits to generate my own BTC to limit the market
herbijudlestoids: i had it in 0.125 and 0.5ATC increments
KRS-One: I demand a certain quality of bait.
herbijudlestoids: last night i put 10ATC onto openex in a cascade limit
KRS-One: i would fondle my boobies.
mircea_popescu: god i wish i was a girl so i could fuck myself.
mircea_popescu: mod6 i doubt he has the time for anything these days.
Bugpowder: I'll give it a try again. I have a bit of an issue because I use a sub key for my own key and need to specify it directly in the pyMPEX script.
mike_c: Bugpowder: have you seen herbi's charts? I think he decided if you see between 7 and 9 downward ticks you buy immediately for fast profits!
mod6: maybe I can just make an anon comment? /me tries
mod6: mircea_popescu: ahh, I would, don't have reddit acct.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2012/the-bitcoin-conference-nobody-went-to/ << 2012 stuff. "10% return on my S.MPOE trade today yesss 4.5 BTC" ; "It was a once in a lifetime opportunity I bought all that was available below 36000"
kakobrekla: i have no other explanation
kakobrekla: i got taht shit too.
mircea_popescu: but then as btc exploded i kind-of lost track
kakobrekla: is this rassah some idiot i forgot about?
kakobrekla: zomg wtf is this some new levels of sarcasm i dont get?=!
mircea_popescu: can i has summary ?
asciilifeform: i mention this in the hope of making it clear how pervasive the architectural problem mentioned in MP's piece is.
asciilifeform: although at the time i asked this question, i was not fully aware of the 'birdlessness' of the field.
