BTC-Mining: So if you make
a split, price moves and you don't sell any contract like you wanted, at the end of the month, it results in
a 0 BTC loss or gain.
BTC-Mining: oh... so by making
a split, I get twice the BTC put up front in escrow with no fees.

a guy keeps making huge bulks of c10t s
BTC-Mining: Suppose I sell it for
a fraction of it's value on the market. What happens with the escrowed BTC?

a row is so far less than 1;4

BTC-Mining: [16:29] <mircea_popescu> the false notion that glbse was
a btc-financials related website is fucking us over

a hike.
