topace__: mircea_popescu, thanks, i see the txn now.. damn thats
a lotta BTC
peterl: anybody want to give me
a referal code for coinbr?
mircea_popescu: sky_king_ so if you have
a seat you certainly can get into the pt/investment game
sky_king_: mp - I bought
a seat to grab s.dice at like 78. then sold it at 18
a couple of weeks ago.
mike_c: passthroughs annoy me. giving up 5% of my dividends for what? to not have to open
a coinbr account?
mircea_popescu: sky_king_ not really. there's
a shortage of people who put the 500-1k hours into reading all the shit and generally are ready to do
a whole lot of very skilled labour.
sky_king_: reading this discussion, it seems that there is
a shortage of mpex pass throughs. if anyone cares to set me up as
a PT, please pm me. I'm all manual, but might be
a good backup.
peterl: by the way, I just bought
a couple shares on BitFunder, when are the divs coming? ;P
ThickAsThieves: because it doesnt pay divs, and the customer base on mpex is
a little different
peterl: If you are running
a PT, doesn't it make more sense to work directly with MPEx?
sky_king_: ThickAsThieves - good steward unless you plan to split town in
a month. the long con is where the money is at.
mircea_popescu: let's take this other example : i play eve. eve has
a gazillion weird items. noobs want to know what to sell or buy for
ThickAsThieves: I guess part of my uncertainty here is that I've really only sold like 60k shares here, and I want to use each sale to buy at
a price over again that is less than that sale, there are only 200k shares in asks on the books at mpex
mircea_popescu: there is such
a thing as premature optimization. bitcoin ain't there yet.
mircea_popescu: mike_c there wasn't
a causality there. the idea is to make
a litte over more volume rather than trying to optimize your rake on .x btc
ThickAsThieves: i'm not arguing against your logic as
a position, but I do want to ask more questions
mircea_popescu: rather than try to make .5 btc as 50% of
a bitcoin, the idea of economy, growth and generally progress is to make virtually nothing at all over cvasi infinite volume
mircea_popescu: if you sell for twice the price basically you've fancied yourself
a sort of blessed prince of bitcoin who taxes 50% of capital
publio: that's
a difficult question
ThickAsThieves: not sure where to draw the line between being
a good steward and leaving money on the table
mircea_popescu: pigeons is there
a trollbox in this bitcointernet that you don't keep tabs on ?
pigeons: ah, i found where the money will end up, from the just-dice trollbox: <Dabs> Dabs Insane Gambling Security = 1% per day, 7% per week. NOT
A PONZI. it's
a GAMBLE!
Vbs: that was
a 40-man raid boss
Namworld: Every bet is
a winner! Look at all that money!
Vbs: topace_: do it in 2000, as
a last homage to sdice
peterl: is
a "bond" from deprived
mircea_popescu: it must be
a mental deffect of people. everything's online. nobody reads, noboduy knows anything.
peterl: Namworld: are you going to add
a S.MG-PT to btct?
Namworld: He's not really IPOing, it's
a passthrough.
enclosurefrednom: same user "asicminer doesnt have
a future eventualy the block reward will half and so will dividends"
KRS-: HAH namworld I didnt know that was your alarm. It sucks because it woke me the fuck up in the middle of the night with
a false alarm.
jurov: now TAT came and threw
a wrench there :D
benkay: man, there's
a massive market out there that can't figure out how to pgp their mpex
mircea_popescu: <pigeons> Namworld: I mean why not just click "withdraw to bank account" on gox if you want
a gamble <<< bwahahaha
pigeons: Namworld: I mean why not just click "withdraw to bank account" on gox if you want
a gamble
Namworld: I'll make
a S.MG-PT on Havelock
pankkake: but it was foiled by
a slow computer
pankkake: my evil plan was to buy-and-sell in
a few minutes
Namworld: silly mirceas, there's
a whole bunch of them now
mircea_popescu: if some noob shows up on webirc wanting to interview me someone please do
a highlight ty.
dub: aint no party like
a mpex party
Namworld: This would almost do as an early prototype... just need to be
a bit bigger so there can be empty space in the middle.
dub: yeah, its just
a real robot, lame
Namworld: Lacks space inside for
a pilot.
mircea_popescu: on the other hand, any bets made in that limbo space when
a bet closes before they confirm are donations.
mircea_popescu: jurov it;'s like this : on one hand handling of bitbet bets is
a process, defined and procedures and everything. it's not just
a random hey, let's play some bitbet admining.
qxzn: kokbrekla: maybe so, but it doesn't change the fact that I do
a lot of business on there
qxzn: So I hire
a translator to complete bitstamp translations
qxzn: Bitstamp has
a program that offers zero fees for translations
qxzn: I'm willing to pay
a fixed amount for this
qxzn: at
a rate of 2BTC for every 100 translations contributed to bitstamp
enclosurefrednom: do you want to ask bitstamp to offer you such
a deal or do you want more people getting involved in translation?
qxzn: Where's
a good spot to advertise this?
qxzn: Those zero fees are worth
a lot to me
Namworld: But you also need
a level head and not blindly panic. Evaluate quickly.
Rulother__: I do go through them, but at
a glance this is pretty good too
Namworld: Rulother, combing the forum is
a must
enclosurefrednom: doesn't the btct api has
a cache time of 10 minutes or something?
Rulother__: Sorry had
a work call there... I'm looking for
a bot that will factor in momentum of trades and put in
a sell off point / buy back
matthew_boyd: Gimme
a second rule and I will try and find him
Rulother__: something that takes in momentum...... Do yo have
a link?
Namworld: No, because I do not necessarily want to sell or buy if price reach
a certain point.
Namworld: I ain't nearly good enough to make
a fully functional trading bot which can make decisions.
Apocalyptic: that's what
a housemaid charges around here
Namworld: Cause that's my public address and the guy wants it sent to
a different address.
Namworld: Someone sent me
a donation of 22 BTC and emailed me it was
a mistake and he wanted to send 0.22...
FabianB: didn't california already like
a year ago?
KRS1: suprised california wasnt first..but then again detroit has been in trouble
a long time and has
a lot less going for it.
mircea_popescu: nobody is trading there, outside of
a few random noobs and their fiddy bux.
PeterL_: on
a separate note, why is MtGox still the largest volume exchange? With all the trouble they have, who is still selling there?
mircea_popescu: we're trying to shoot cum in
a spiral fashion towards the monitor
matthew_boyd: mircea_popescu, you can fool me, but you can't fool yourself, "i bang
a lot of hot chicks"
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves logically speaking hot chicks tend to be my sister because i bang
a lot of hot chicks anyway so they can survive unmolested.
mircea_popescu: Pentru ca este chiar atit de superioara in inteligenta ei transcendenta, ca mai bine nu i-oi zice, incit i se fringe organu’ copulator de cerintele scolare. = because she is quite that far above, in her transcendent intelligence for lack of more polite words, that she couldn't give
a fuck out of her copulative ourgan on academic requirements.
jurov: the trilema article is
a copulation material by itself: Because it is just so superior in its transcendent intelligence, you better not did I say, exciting and snaps organu 'copulating school requirements.
