drekk: glad i'm in germany.
a) we crash the few drones we have on own grounds - b) anti-terror harrasment is way more subtle - c) we keep buying foreign economies and therefore are doing ok, i guess
drekk: i guess you guys live on
a higher paranoia level than i do :P
PeanutPower: boonies4u: cool i'm working on
a few experimental things over at ltcgaming.tk
noagendamarket: I dont want anyone getting
a drone strike because Matonis writes an article about bitcoin
boonies4u: is basically confessing to being
a terrorist
noagendamarket: if they shut down bitcoin we just start
a new blockchain LOL
drekk: how can something like btc/ltc be "not political"? even the statement "p2p over centralisation" is
a political one
boonies4u: maybe I should set up
a dead man's switch
noagendamarket: its not
a tool to take down the state its
a tool against bankers :P
RogueAI: why did they let this guy be
a founder?
boonies4u: I don't want bitcoin to become centralized or regulated, but I also don't want it to be labeled as
a tool to be used against the state
RogueAI: payment processors, SSL Cert issuer, and
a supposedly secure email service
RogueAI: I don't doubt that there are plenty of idiot people out there who won't understand that no one can speak for
a inanimate trading unit
RogueAI: what
a dirty rag of
a media company
boonies4u: it's
a Forbes article by Jon Matonis
RogueAI: I once made the mistake of reading an issue at
a laundromat
boonies4u: RogueAI: I have
a problem with an organization politicizing bitcoin, which would be essentially throwing non-anonymous members and bitcoiners under the bus
RogueAI: boonies4u, you mean you have
a problem with monetary tyranny, correct?
RogueAI: The network is pretty safe as long as the majority don't adopt
a code release with centralizing features
boonies4u: I don't bitcoin to be an official currency by
a country
BTC-Mining: Make
a tribe with your own language, never educate the kids about any word of english. If the first generation dies along with english before you are discovered, the next ones when discovered would be
a completly non-english speaking, oblivious to technology, tribe of people from american descent...
boonies4u: you could make
a nice little border jumping hub
noagendamarket: people break in to houses inn Australia because no one has guns and you can sue the house owner if you break
a leg while stealing from them
BTC-Mining: True, plastic bottles degrade slowly. And are full of air. Perfect material for
a cheap fleating island.
BTC-Mining: They probably starting to have
a bigger picture of what happened and info about the passthrough issuers.
boonies4u: this could be
a good chance to buy stocks from panic sellers
BTC-Mining: I would easily see this happening: after the weekend, Nefario comes back, looks at all the talks and would be something like: "What the heck? I put
a notice not to panic! Look at the shiny new v3!"
boonies4u: we need
a live ticker on the number of hairs on nefario's head
BTC-Mining: People would all have gone cheering with expectations about
a shiney GLBSE v3
boonies4u: if I were him, I would have just put up
a bogus maintenance page
BTC-Mining: You would have to be
a very lousy and lazy thief to go away with just GLBSE's wallet.
RogueAI: that's to be expected, on
a USD exchange the exchange doesn't horde the funds
BTC-Mining: I hardly see it profitable to just steal that even if it's
a good few thousands BTC over going long term with GLBSE seriously.
RogueAI: Don't worry I didn't pull
a bitcoinic@40 guys ROFLMAO
RogueAI: delisted something in
a terrible fashion
RogueAI: "How to ruin
a business in minutes"
RogueAI: he should write
a book to fund the PR position
RogueAI: with
a decent PR person ;p
BTC-Mining: Nefario should provide
a way to submit
a BTC address to be given to OPs
RogueAI: BTC address or jump off
a bridge
RogueAI: if it's
a list, it needs to be
a signed list of bitcoin addresses linked to holdings
BTC-Mining: I think I'll own
a large portion of every assets.
BTC-Mining: So far I'm confident GLBSE will come back or
a list of holders will be released.
BTC-Mining: It had
a loan with one of the large serious miner, with an agreement for that hashing paying the dividends to be repurchased back at 100%
BTC-Mining: He can return them, but without
a list of BTC-MINING holders, I cannot return anything.
boonies4u: I only have
a few bonds lying around
noagendamarket: or sitting on top of
a skyscraper and thrpowing $5 notes off it
boonies4u: I'm glad I didn't do
a LTO or fund on GLBSE
boonies4u: BTC-Mining: I put up
a loan on btcjam, still being funded
drekk: otherwise it sounds like
a fun hobby if you have the time at your hands
BTC-Mining: Managing
a fund seems like the worst idea you could make.
BTC-Mining: And
a single big loss impacts everyone to top it.
BTC-Mining: I never created
a fund for that reason.
drekk: might be, i don't think the amount of trolls in
a thread is
a good indicator, tho. especially with usagi it looks to me as if personal/emotional reason were involved
drekk: depends on your ressources. and quality of the trolls. if you find yourself answering questions all day instead of doing business, you've got
a problem
BTC-Mining: Like I told him once, I believe he is
a great developer, but decision wise, he's not good at PR.
drekk: Smoovious, well... so did you presenting the "moving servers" theory as
a fact :P
BTC-Mining: As far as I know, nefario already has
a place to live.
RogueAI: which just doesn't match up with their ability to use
a computer
BTC-Mining: Not
a coincidence. Just someone also in the UK trying to pass as nefario. Or he just forgot to obfuscate that before coming here to see how people were going.
dub: yeah, im sure its
a coincidence
RogueAI: no ops in #glbse, that's
a bit ominous
Ignatius-otc: I have never gotten such
a call...I will prepare
a win virtual machine full of scat porn for the occasion
rg: WAKE ME UP, BEFORE YOU GO GO DONT LEAVE ME HANGIN ON LIKE
A YO YO
rg: dakid: can you do me
a favor?
rg: that's like calling the cops and asking them if they know about
a crack house
PeanutPower: i bet they wouldn't recognise it as
a real entity
PeanutPower: i think most people don't consider btc
a genuine currency if you read the popular press
dakid: i never thought glbse was
a 100% legal, i just assumed it was in the grey area of the law or was based out of
a place without such regulations
copumpkin: it's the reason most people can't invest in
a hedge fund
copumpkin: so
a lot of what you thought were legit shares might not be, if they were issued by people in the US
copumpkin: dakid: US issuers aren't supposed to be able to solicit investment from anyone but accredited investors, and accredited means you have
a lot of money or make
a lot of money :)
dakid: copumpkin: accredited? I had
a few shares spread around, nothing huge though
BTC-Mining: Yes, I keep saying this MPOE-PR keeps giving
a bad name to his fine exchange.
mircea_popescu: mm, you know it's reported monthly, there's
a thread in btctalk
mircea_popescu: it's just
a matter of, the bad guys have
a little cartel going and they're defending each other with empty words.
mircea_popescu: BTC-Mining mpex owns
a market. some idiots keep insisting in diluting that market with obvious scams. it's her job to point this out.
teek: quite
a shit pile we have turned this into guys
mircea_popescu: you don't close
a contract by offering people free bonbons unless you're selling cheap shoes for the mass market.
BTC-Mining: You don't attract investors by giving
a 360 degrees "FUCK YOU! TOLD YOU SO!" all around all the time.
sgornick: Oh .. .ha .. that has happened like half
a dozen times now.
BTC-Mining: It's your PR person mircea. People hate it. It's
a troll.
BTC-Mining: Well... I'm sure
a chair at any stock market is very costly...
jcpham: name
a place where it is free to trade securities
