asciilifeform: the product I envision would be a single-purpose device which runs the block chain and only the block chain. the FPGA code implementing the instruction set, firmware, etc. would form a complete description of the system.
asciilifeform: there are numerous available FPGAs which have a programming interface which is not accessible from the routing fabric (i.e. separate pins.)
dub: yeah but why is a PGA more trustable
asciilifeform: secure like a Russian ICBM. not like the idiot western SCADAs.
asciilifeform: you don't want x86, unix, etc. (much less microcrap) in a ballistic missile. esp. one aimed at the U.S.
asciilifeform: a system which includes consumer PC components or traditional software is insecure from birth.
asciilifeform: and so, one can use any of a thousand commercial fpga dev boards
asciilifeform: I'm thinking of a node (not a miner, note) written for a custom architecture, running on an fpga (of the client's choice)
pgp: but that requires a transaction to specify me as an output - what we need is a generalized method of paying a node operator who identity is not known at the time the transaction is submitted...
asciilifeform: that is to say, a box that implements a full node, from scratch, with no unix/c/c++/code written by anyone in the past on it. with complete docs under NDA.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unrelated thought: do you suppose there could be a market for a hardware implementation of Bitcoin?
asciilifeform: pgp: just run a node that demands to be paid X satoshi before it relays transactions <=Y satoshi.
pgp: i agree with mp - no fee for relay is a fundemental problem with bitcoin
mircea_popescu: depend a lot on the definitions of one and easily.
asciilifeform: almost seems like this is a deliberate ploy to prolong the life of litecoin.
mircea_popescu: May 05 22:23:07 <mircea_popescu>consequently there's no way to outcompete dust txs, cause you don't pay a fee to be relayed
mircea_popescu: May 05 22:22:42 <mircea_popescu>ah, actually, there is a reason
inhies: i gave you a whole 0.0001 for it!
toffoo: mircea_popescu i recently finished a book called 'Flawless' about another belgian diamond heist .. which i think they got away with
dub: mircea_popescu: no but possibly bigger impact given bitcoin is no longer a toy for nerds
jborkl: I have a decent amount, but I dont want to sell yet
assbot: Ah, your hair. Your hair is soft. It's like a girl's. Now how do you get it that way?
inhies: deadweasel: ive had that happen too, but ive never had blockchain.info say it couldnt find a transaction at all
ThickAsThieves: also remember that BTCT has a daily withdrawal limit
deadweasel: inhies, it's possible it just hasn't been picked for a block yet. I've had txns sit in 'pools' for 12 hours at worst, before seeing the first confirmation.
jurov: if the tx it isn't there either (and you didn't do a typo) then its' btct problem
deadweasel: if nothing shows up in either after a few hours, you should send a support email.
deadweasel: that's just 'getting things done'... corruption has a darker overtone for me.
deadweasel: sounds like you two are doing a corruption eiffel tower on the rest of hte EU. well done!
deadweasel: or I can use a dummy address
inhies: is it normal for a btc withdrawal transaction from btct.co to not be found on blockchain.ingo?
error4733: i sold my ripple :greed: i got some fresh btc to throw in a other scam
ThickAsThieves: i have a flash alert on this entire channel
parseval: It would go off quite a bit :)
parseval: I hope you didn't set a nickname alert on 'TAT' in your irc client, ThickAsThieves
ThickAsThieves: 1/100 of a share
ThickAsThieves: I'll have a new asset announcement later today probably :)
mircea_popescu: * RICE CLAIM: "I don't think anybody could have predicted that they would try to use an airplane as a missile, a hijacked airplane as a missile." National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, 5/16/02
mircea_popescu: it's onyl been a decade.
mircea_popescu: ;;google nobody could have imagined they'd use a plane as a rocket
ThickAsThieves: someone is selling a lot of puts again
kakobrekla: http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2013/05/off-the-schneid.html
parseval: Maybe it takes the history a bit to catch up
parseval: Maybe when I look to take it to a wider audience than myself I'll add it in
parseval: It's just a matter of focusing on what's useful to me first, then adding in the extra stuff later
parseval: I want to add a bit to it, like a comparison line of the USD value over time as pulled from MtGox historical data, flags for dividends, and maybe a chart showing return rates
BitHub: guess i just have to get a written prospal or something to start with and submit that to ukto
BitHub: thinking bitfunder might be good for a first time
BitHub: anyone have a how to guide to releasing an asset on the exchanges?

truff1es: disconnected ramblings merged into a blocks of confusion
parseval: hmm.. Does 11,603 lifetime trades on all assets for all users in BTC-TC seem like a low number? Not counting transfers or unfulfilled orders..
parseval: Though I don't have a bot to run either
parseval: Nah, the API is all pull, I don't see a streaming optioni
parseval: The data's posted in the chat before the page even refreshes. There must be a websocket somewhere that isn't exposed..
KRS1: its like me asking my waitor or waitress for change for a dollar so i can tip them
mod6: mircea_popescu: they had a similar problem like maybe 3 weeks ago or so.
ThickAsThieves: i recall that happening a week or two ago
inhies: ah gox crash wasnt a big deal
KRS1: i was looking at my old wallets the other day and almost shed a tear
KRS1: what a sesspool its become lol
ThickAsThieves: and scammers a boner for BTC startups
ThickAsThieves: dunno, that kinda news is more likely to give VCs a boner for bitcoin
ThickAsThieves: it's been on an uptrend for 12 hours, a smoke break won't kill you
ThickAsThieves: but loss was tiny, just the cost of running up the butocin price a little to get out
ThickAsThieves: i was a bitfloor user however
dub: actually i did have a btctccttctcct or whatever acct but it vanished
dub: well I've been holding out for AM to make a platform which doesn't seem to be a priority
ThickAsThieves: it's div day tomorrow, i guess people are willing to pay a premium
Framedragger: can't be bothered to look up a nethash-vs-time plot somewhere online, could be interesting
gribble: smickles was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 4 weeks, 5 days, 7 hours, 45 minutes, and 41 seconds ago: <smickles> a bitcoin atm could be the easiest way to send money to a friend, each of you just goes to an atm
ThickAsThieves: it'll coil for a day or two
ThickAsThieves: i dont think itll dip much lower for a few days
KRS1: is market price gonna take a small dip for now
KRS1: does that btc-alarm have a virus in it so it send all u wallet btc to some wallet in nigeria
jcpham: ijs if you ever find yourself in a situation where your client is flooded
jcpham: you can leave a lot of them open and /close -m
truff1es: if i get a 3rd one sigh
ThickAsThieves: give it a massage
KRS1: lol truff1es thats how i think too a lot of times "estrogen filled room/house/whatever" lol
KRS1: maybe i just need a gf
KRS1: had a "hard" day
KRS1: Had to follow after her after looking for her for 20 minutes to a real dark place full of gold teeth and I at least snatched my smokes from her before leaving.
KRS1: except i got a dance today from a girl that was a-cup, b-cup at best and i was very happy.
KRS1: a solid b-cup is nice
KRS1: i gotta make a few more trips to the strip club i suppose..the one place i can get away from everything and closer to little boobies
truff1es: we'd be dead before most of this is a reality imo
KRS1: honestly i believe its a matter of time..humans are very crafty.
KRS1: but its a very simple process..just weeding out the heavier particles
dub: it was pretty awesome though, just slow them down a little bit every now and again to cripple the enrichment
Framedragger: not a native speaker
KRS1: wonder if he has a twitter feed
Framedragger: it's a more subtle social approach, i get it - why use the slow youtube when i can use iran's fast youtube which also has pirate filmzz
KRS1: what do you mean by encrypted channel..a given TCP port with known encryption data?
Framedragger: iran's elections in a month, and they're experimenting with DPI filtering right now, etc etc
ThickAsThieves: bitcoiners could sponsor a web satellite for stuff like syria and egypt incidents
benkay: when you want a kerjillion nodes, perhaps more sane architecture is nodes that can peer
benkay: node and spoke works well when you don't want a kerjillion nodes
