evoorhees: you know, I never even used the command line before bitcoin stuff
DeaDTerra: I go manually :P
evoorhees: yeah I used pympex
Azelphur: evoorhees: did you get pympex working yestreday? mircea was asking but I was sick so wasn't very useful
evoorhees: though, I heard about an awesome casino game called satoshiDICE so I might spend it all there
evoorhees: I doubt more than 5% of the pile will be sold for fiat
DeaDTerra: Nah if I would get that much BTC, I would sell of part of it the other I would place in a offline wallet
DeaDTerra: I think you should invest it in say a good fund, hmm I mean Gamma... hm yea a fund maybe :P
Rothgar: yea, I feel that the 5M will be a slow sell but eventually it will sell
nefario: no I was talking about altitude
evoorhees: oh you think I'd spend the money at silk road? :)
DeaDTerra: I make more an hour doing bitcoin stuff then I do my regular job :P, so I will probably quit it soon anyways
DeaDTerra: I know xD
DeaDTerra: I don't get a hello ;( xD
DeaDTerra: I will, I have asked to go down in hours and I will probably quit if I need more time.
DeaDTerra: GLBSE bugged up and I had to go to bed, I then tried to redeme myself this morning but I only had an hour and as I didn't fully master MPex I didn't manage to get the backing up and I didn't place enough asks.
DeaDTerra: I planeed to fix the backings + sell the shares yesterday
DeaDTerra: I am back
DeaDTerra: hahaha wow I am going for a glass of water brb
DeaDTerra: hahah I can't count...
DeaDTerra: then I took 300,000 (amount issued so far) and minus that amount then times by 0.0032
DeaDTerra: I did total amount of shares bought + total amount of shares I can afford buying with the amount in my GLBSE account+ shares not yet issued
DeaDTerra: I guess
DeaDTerra: oh well :P I will go and cry on the forums for donations :P
DeaDTerra: I did the calculations I was 20 BTC for the sign up fee + 22 or something like that short.
DeaDTerra: Hm I had to put in 20 more BTC to cover the GLBSE fees :(
mod6: rg, i figured it was time that I put in a rating too
smickles: i'll have the buy and sell buttons that many seem to want
DeaDTerra: I have been thinking of starting pass throughs to some known lenders/investment sites. So that people can for example invest in a 90 Day bond for 1 BTC, then they get a daily dividend paid by me and they can liquidate when ever they want.
mod6: smickles: i updated your wot rating
smickles: i will provider for people who want to buy and sell mpex listings (mpex at first, others as well, but later)
smickles: < bitfoo> also, there is a need for brokerages <<< i keep hearing this, and as i am performing this service, and working on a good web interface for it, i feel like these sort of statements are sorta like "hurry up and finish the web ui smikles"
DeaDTerra: I wrote the contract in a way so that I Can't do that :P
DeaDTerra: I am working on a full redesign of the GBF system as it has to many flaws, it was fine when I worked with small amounts of investors, but it is not optimal right now
DeaDTerra: I am going to be starting up some other pass throughs and also launch GBF on GLBSE :)
DeaDTerra: I know people that have already made a lot from brokering (not sure how to bend it) and underwritings.
DeaDTerra: I will start working on the other stuff I need to do mean while :)
mircea_popescu: i think actually being a broker is the next revenue generator for btc
DeaDTerra: It's a bit time consuming but once you get the script I guess it will be a lot faster
DeaDTerra: I mean learning it is hard, and I think that the FAQ might need to be more specific for retards like me. But other then that it's not that hard.
mircea_popescu: (once you learn how to do it i mean :p )
DeaDTerra: Already tried to send in a buy order and it works, so I am all good on that part.
DeaDTerra: But how would I pay it back? Like during the next dividend?
DeaDTerra: I guess :)
smickles: even an interest free loan, as i have tended to do with the things i'm involved in
smickles: i do think that putting you own btc in isn't cricket, it should at least be a loan to the passthru
DeaDTerra: I don't really care much if I brake even or not.
DeaDTerra: I am not doing this to make money, I am doing it as a service to support the community and Eric+SatoshIDice :)
smickles: (i can't remember the value)
mircea_popescu: i guess you recoup on the first 1k worth of dividends
DeaDTerra: I will put in money myself if I notice that BTC are missing
DeaDTerra: I could throw in some of my money to the backing but I am worried that will start messing up my numbers xD
DeaDTerra: I plan to purchase shares to backup the shares already released then, sell more shares and repeat
mircea_popescu: DeaDTerra i'd say no permanent damage done, really. some people overpaid on glbse, but mmm... well... i guess their bad really.
DeaDTerra: Indeed, but I am a bit annoyed at myself as I had planned to do it last night. Then things went wrong, then the same this morining :P
DeaDTerra: I fucked up sorry. Now I am trying to fix it oki :)
ColdHardMetal: after some of what I've seen in that thread I'm not sure I'd give anyone the benefit of anything lol
smickles: ColdHardMetal: i would give the benifit of the doubt and think that we would exclude passthru volume from the mpex 'score'
smickles: heh, i'm not part of that flam war DeaDTerra
DeaDTerra: I don't want to end up oweing people shares and shit
DeaDTerra: MPex no, GLBSE Yes. I am getting the MPex resolved as we speak.
DeaDTerra: I am back
usagi: I bought 250 shares o_o
hctib: I wonder if s.dice will sell out before 12 GMT
hctib: I have
hctib: oh well, that's why I don't do this kind of stuff, it takes too much time.
usagi: Wheee I found a security hole
EmanuelDeOrtego: That's all I will say.
EmanuelDeOrtego: I just fear the unknown.
EmanuelDeOrtego: I will wait patiently then.
nefario: the last 3 days I've not had any sleep
nefario: you can see I've been busy the last couple of days
EmanuelDeOrtego: Well, I take back what I said.
EmanuelDeOrtego: I think that's very unprofessional.
EmanuelDeOrtego: I think Nefario is intentionally putting off my IPO.
mircea_popescu: This is a true risk that you face as an investor, and something that all game investors face. I've had a hardcore, mostly mainstream taste in games for 20 years, and believe I'm self aware enough to know when I'm enjoying something because it's fun, or I'm playing something because I've been skinner boxed.
EmanuelDeOrtego: You know, I feel insulted.
mircea_popescu: i'm in awe of the internets.
mircea_popescu: Previous to this I set up and ran a simmer sauce manufacturing business (www.ameetshomestyle.com) on a dime, so I do have experience in organizing complex problems into more manageable chunks to create a cohesive, commercial grade whole, all on a deadline.
mircea_popescu: i like "at the moment". it's like a whore, this expression.
EmanuelDeOrtego: It's like I went back to the 90s
mircea_popescu: This is an understandable concern, considering I'm essentially doing this on my own at the moment.
mircea_popescu: i like that they copied the trached system used for bvps/dice tho
MoneyIsDebt: I didn't know what the 1 parameter meant
EmanuelDeOrtego: I think my STANDARD.GOLD would classify as a turd in the eyes of some
EmanuelDeOrtego: That's all I have to say.
mircea_popescu: if i used an exchange i'd seriously pay people to nuke such assets.
EmanuelDeOrtego: All I know is that it will eventually be profitable.
EmanuelDeOrtego: I would agree if things were quicker.
EmanuelDeOrtego: Diablo-D3: I didn't pay him even more money?
EmanuelDeOrtego: nefario: To be even more specific, it's a security I paid for 3 or so days ago. Just looking for updates.
Diablo-D3: I use vim not emacs
Diablo-D3: I am going to get a fucking ibm model m
Diablo-D3: IT KNOWS I HATE IT AND IT WONT DIE
Diablo-D3: 1) I have a razor keyboard
Diablo-D3: now I have exactly two problems
usagi: Can I get a .name address with namecoins, rg?
Diablo-D3: but I said
Diablo-D3: I knew this up front
Diablo-D3: well, I knew razor was a shit brand
