nubbins`: what makes you think i don't have any :D
nubbins`: i don't think there's a market for it today, anyway
nubbins`: but i think in 6-12 months or so, you'll see it priced 3-4x current

herbijudlestoids: ye, i was mostly just curious, actually kind of hoping to see an obvious time based pattern so i could focus some efforts into that window
mircea_popescu: but bitpay ?! i dun see it in any sense.
mircea_popescu: also... i suspect a large number of btc people are not-normal sleep patterned.
mircea_popescu: i doubt it'll ever have any. why would it ?
herbijudlestoids: i guess usage is much higher
herbijudlestoids: well most stuff i watch is traded algorithmically in aggregate and still has strong diurnal patterns

mircea_popescu: "I don't see this making a difference. There are lost coins in every currency. A 10K block reward is peanuts. Any anyways, the developers could always modify this in the future if it became a problem."
