dexX7: they have
a working support and they proceed sepa fast
afrotec: i do not, i just opened an account
a few weeks ago but never funded it yet
bobbabad: just seems
a bit dodgy.. no limits to deposit or withdraw as far as I can find
afrotec: mann i wish, 50btc on coinbase to sell on gox is
a cool $1k USD
afrotec: but bitstamp if you want to set
a price
bobbabad: SECA is always slow I thought, but
a normal wire to non US is not working either?
Namworld: Yes. It's
a keep whatever, send me the rest deal.
FlyingLeap: that would be
a rather dim outcome, but I suppose it's possible.
peterl: that could be it too, did he have
a stake?
peterl: maybe they thought they could pump it, but realizing it is not doing
a post-ipo bounce they just dump it to move onto other things?
dub: those jetpack guys have
a legacy not unlike bfl
rethaw: "The ASUS ROG ARES II doesn't just allow you to run all the latest games on max settings, it also walks your dog, can light
a menorah, and settles legal disputes."
Vbs: Diablo-D3: nice, maybe they'll be the 1st manufacturer with
a 4-slot card?
Vbs: they even state 600GH +/-20%, so it can turn out to be
a 480GH/s card... at the same price...
Vbs: I don't have
a problem with them doing
a pci-e card
ozbot: Anyone have
a 25% BFL discount code they are not using? Let me use it for BTC
thestringpuller: Duffer1: Seriously bro? You would give someone millions of dollars because they post well on
a forum? Those are the worst investors. Lemmings lining up to just hand money away.
thestringpuller: People doing "business" on
a forum is pretty sketchy if you really think about it.
Duffer1: someone posted
a link hehe
dub: I've had close to 1100w inside
a case
Vbs: show me 3 running inside
a case
dub: anyway, just pointing out
a couple of flaws in your rampant scam shilling, carry on
truffles: dub i thought u were
a shill for the foundation
assbot: I don't give
a shit who saw what and who did what or who did who.
truffles: u went to
a party with
a rundown house, sick brag?
dub:
a house that should probably be worth in the vincinity of $10mn if it wasnt falling dowon
dub: not
a thing in oakland
dub: there was rather
a lot of lonesome tail around
dub: there was
a 'bitcoin accepted here' sticker in teh kitchen
dub: in other news, I went to
a party friday night
mircea_popescu: that happened
a while back, anyway, probably right around the fork.
mircea_popescu: might as well be
a bunch of ignorant kids, and therefore brave.
mircea_popescu: there's something to be said for the excellent timing : less than
a week after I bitchslapped him there's suddenly supoenas everywhere. let's dillute it.
mircea_popescu: the theory may have some merit. make
a bunch fo scams, have them pop in concert, then come in "for the good of the industry"
mircea_popescu: i mean, it's clearly one single group, just
a few people. they have nothing at all.
thestringpuller: Just because they lined up
a billion idiots doesn't make it the perfect bad idea.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: I would go as far (with truffles thought), that you can line up even
a billion rich pseudo-smart idiots
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller yes. there's this deeply entrenched mentality of stupid, in the us. it manifests as people spend 50 bux ior w/e for half
a btc, and then proceed to know better than anyone
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu then it seems it's only
a matter of time before the people willing to give up their number realize their suitor doesn't have
a real job, and works at mcdonalds - yet tells girls he's
a 4 star chef
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller like if you know
a chick loves to be complimented and will do anything if you tell her she's smart. you have her number.
dub: w_white: which forum users? anyone that has been around longer than 'Ken' himself? I presume you are aware taht creating
a forum account doesnt cost anything
thestringpuller: Once he unavoidably ran out of cash he proceeded to issue more shares, deeply diluting existing shareholders (new shares were issued for values at times below even 1% of what early investors had paid). Eventually GLBSE took control of the asset and forced
a motion. At the time GLBSE management was acting in such an inept and erratic manner however (delisting spontaneously some other asset) that McFarland was retu
dub: w_white: have you seen anything about the NDA other than
a guy on
a forum mentioning an NDA?
thestringpuller: Late September 2012 Patrick McFarland aka DiabloD3xxii came up with the idea of
a .million BTC company. sometime in April. This was going to be some sort of mining venture then modified to datacenter then eventually further modified to include electricity generation and other lines.
mircea_popescu: nah, the core issue here is that we have
a group of people who have pretty much got the forum/reddit retard's number
mircea_popescu: w_white jay and silent bob could sign
a nda about 28 nm chip production.
thestringpuller: too bad the rich people have better things to do with their time than place bets against scammors, otherwise I'd say there could be
a lucrative business in
a set of bitbet's predicting the failure of scammors on the play exchanges
w_white: ítś buried somewhere in the thread
a few times.
w_white: eAsic has also confirmed via email
a few times that theyŕe under NDA with actm.
mircea_popescu: literate adults, and often contained literary references children would not understand. Younger generations, mostly illiterate, and having little or no Bible knowledge not gleaned from their moronic parents and half-wit talk radio hosts, probably misunderstood the comment as being
a general insult describing the slow-witted Fudd."
mircea_popescu: Rawted i love that word, nimrod. to quote ud, "The Bible ONLY mentions that Nimrod was
a son of Cush, the founder of Babylon, and
a mighty hunter. Curiously enough, Dictionary.com attests definition 2 to have derived from
a Looney Toons episode, wherein Bugs Bunny mocks his adversary, the hunter Elmer Fudd, calling him
a "poor little Nimrod". Warner Brothers' Looney Toons cartoons were not written for children, but for
Rawted: that ken slaughter guy from actm is
a total nimrod.
mircea_popescu: it's like crossing the east river in
a peanut. way more than crossing the atlantic in any sort of actual ship.
mircea_popescu: cause while homer touched
a lot further out, it was way way less stupid. and therefore...
mircea_popescu: dub that's exactly it tho. if we do the ratio of (how fucking stupid it is) vs (how influent), that shit is in
a league with homer.
dub: I'd still like to see
a link to comms from easic
w_white: no, mostly because eAsic has confirmed theyŕe making chips for actm and theyŕe not
a shitty company.
dub: yeah, because words on
a forum
w_white: no but i am worried
a congress decision against bitcoin use in the US could affect actmś ability to work with eAsic or operate bitocin company on US soil.
dub: congress decided actm is
a scam?
w_white: eAsic is
a US company. theyŕe going to produce chips for actm regardless of actm being able to follow through on their other promises.
mircea_popescu: if it's
a scam you're not in possesion of an investment,
w_white: iḿ invested in ActM,
a company operating in US. thatś where most of my worry comes from.
gecko_x8: but that's just one small factor in
a large complicated field of humman mass subconcious behaviour
w_white: MP, didn know you had
a blog. very nice.
gecko_x8: but the very fact that you assume, along with the majority, that
a us congress clampdown would affect the price atleast initially negatively
w_white: bitcoin is largely US users is my understanding. if thereś
a huge sellof of US users, what happens?
w_white: theyǘe given fbi 120 days to issue
a report of the security issues surrounding the currency. what is preventing
a kind of knee-jerk legislative reaction disentivising us companies from using it?
gecko_x8: they could not legislate themselves out of
a paper bag in 100 years lol
mircea_popescu: there's
a finite supply of cash in the hands of "people".
gecko_x8: then the realization of the massive computing power it takes to create
a bitcoin
gecko_x8: global market cap is just way way too low for
a technology like this
gecko_x8: after 800, there would be some back and forth, ending with
a spike to 1000
Duffer1: Gox is
a good indicator of where the market wants to go though
gecko_x8: well i'm being dossed like
a motherfucker
bobbabad_: matuszed, sure but I wont make
a capital gain selling
a computer or
a car most likely
Duffer1: right but cash doesn't have
a ledge of everytransaction built into each dollar
bobbabad_: matuszed make sense.. would be nice if I can find
a good accountant that understand
a bit of in and out of bitcoin
mircea_popescu: bobbabad_ for simplicity sake the best move is to consult
a tax specialist
matuszed: if you buy
a stock at 1$ and it goes to 5$
bobbabad_: so for simplicity, lets say I wired 5k to mtgox, bought bitcoins, transfered that to btct, trippled my investment.. is it enough to play capital gain tax on that 10k I gained or do I need to do it on
a per trade kind of thing?
matuszed: Just keep
a detailed record of your cost basis
pankkake:
a bot or somone playing against
a bot?
