dub: no,
a nefario quote would have at least 17 'like's in it
BTC-Mining: No problem Ignatius. Just trying to keep what's known/claimed posted somewhere instead of people having to scour the forum. It's really

a while

Luceo: I actually like mpex but the fee does keep out
a lot of the smaller traders which can hurt liquidity in such
a small market
mircea_popescu: are we going to go into
a politically corect spiral nao ?
mircea_popescu: leaving aside the fact that i never heard of
a place with no idiots.
Diablo-D3: yeah well, I have trouble giving
a shit anymore
mircea_popescu: trying to invest in the sense of "exploting idiots" never works aout, it's pretty much the same thing as trying to time
a ponzi.
mircea_popescu: except... if he gets nothing back off glbse now, is he actually
a winner here ? or
a net loser ?
mircea_popescu: take BTC-Mining as
a fine example. he thinks he;'s been exploiting idiots
mircea_popescu: heck, the pr girl even got
a signed document to that effect.
mircea_popescu: Oct 04 18:38:35 <DeaDTerra> I got

Doffx: I need to add
a bitcoin address I spose
asa1024: I still have
a page up from there
matthewh3: I know Nafario, I've met him, have him on my Facebook and have his phone number but I'm not calling him yet. As I imagine he is very busy and answering lots of calls. I have sent him
a message on Facebook tho.
FledNanders: anyway you know what i know. good luck to us all. i've got
a couple grand i would like to see again.
FledNanders: he could have been in
a panic that his number was published or just trying to throw people off
FledNanders: "he" sounded to me like
a very professional young asian man.
hctib: And if you do
a good job avoiding scams there's always the ..... government. duh duh duh
mircea_popescu: FledNanders he sorta sounds like
a 50 yo lesbian on her last period.
hctib: And if you do
a good job running scams there's always the ..... government. duh duh duh
FledNanders: Most likely it won't come back up on Saturday, but Monday after
a weekend of bug fixing.
FledNanders: vampireb - Nefario is updating to GLBSE 3.0 and adding
a claim codes section to relclaim Goat assets.

a retard always dropping keystrokes
rg: i did
a withdrw, i tin i did t properly

FledNanders: make sure to tell dreadpirateroberts to just go ahead and put silk road on
a .com and hire your legal team.
mircea_popescu: but on
a serious note pigeons, this is very useful info.
FledNanders: SEC contacted Nefario. I'm confident that is
a fact.
FledNanders: GLBSE should be migrated to
a .bit site. Should have been migrated
a long time ago.
Anduck: it was
a major source of pirates bonds
smickles: Doffx: if you have shares of gsdpt (or whatev) you could give DeaDTerra
a signed doc that says you'll give X shares to him as soon as is possible
Doffx: Well I guess its
a good thing I mostly own that asset
FledNanders: milk isn't
a scammer. milk does the body good.
mircea_popescu: (the duck also weighs the same as
a witch, which is virtual)
smickles: i don't think bitcoin is
a virtual currency anyway
asa1024: the media will love that one "FIRST MURDER OVER
A VIRTUAL CURRENCY!!!"
smickles: of all things, when I learned that guy died in
a train crash, i laughed
pigeons: well, compared to
a few months ago
pigeons:
a couple truledger servers on tor are getting popular
knotwork: once there is some easy way to use it through Tor there are
a few groups who want to have OT servers as Tor hidden services
pigeons: ErebusBat: knotwork has
a server with btc, i0c,ixc, ltc, CDN, etc,
a handful of other servers, i'm not sure which of them want to be announced yet
smickles: ErebusBat: you could setup proxy assets to glbse assets and make
a killing
ErebusBat: asa1024: dont forget that your eyes will bleed too… how can you put
a price on that.
mircea_popescu: im not gonna be the first taking 15yo's to be thrown off rocks, but i can't deny sparta had
a point somewhere in there.
Luceo: mircea_popescu: Hmm, you make
a fair point
smickles: knotwork: well, today may be
a good day to attract more players
knotwork: or match up folk selling
A for price in B with people selling B for price measured in
A knotwork: so like at 100 scale, offering to sell 100 of
A for x many B per 100 is separate market from offering to sell 100-lots of B for y many
A per 100
knotwork: because of those scale factors it treats both ways round of
a pair as distinct markets
knotwork: I have scripts that take the computed value for an asset in terms of another and place offers to buy by the one at
a time at 97% or by the ten at
a time at 98% or by the 100-lot at 99% and to similarly sell at 103%, 102%, 101% stuff like that
knotwork: so we put
a limit of only 36 open offers per nym for now
knotwork: right now we had to put
a limit to the number of offers
a nym can have open because nyms issuing 72 offers 3 times
a day without clearing their inboxes were blowing out the inbox download timeouts
smickles: glbse would have to get
a lot of info from its users to comply with us regs, and serve us users
knotwork: and of course it could do with prettier clients if it actually makes any sense to let grandma have
a seat on
a stock exchange
ErebusBat: ^^^ I don't nessecarily disagree, but taken out of context that is
a very bad thing to have in
a news clipping (or courtroom)
smickles: Luceo: OT seems like it could work, it just needs
a bit more dev
smickles: Luceo: congratz on being the umteenth person to suggest and not yet impliment
a decentralized bitcoin securities exchanges. next action, find Open Transactions
Luceo: Maybe what we need is
a decentralized exchange?
mircea_popescu: no, the main safe thing about mpex is that i'm
a hardass.
mircea_popescu: the safe side,
a dump of all users' final STATs, encrypted with their keys and clearsigned by the exchange will be released before closing, in whatever manner will be deemed at that time efficient, as for instance on
a p2p file sharing system.
mircea_popescu: In the unlikely case that the continuation of MPEx becomes impossible, all issuers will be provided with lists of their shareholders.
A successor system would have to be constructed (either centralized or maintained independently by the respective issuers), but no information is lost : since people can still sign with their keys, it is trivial for anyone who is in fact
a shareholder to identify himself as shareholder. Just to be on
mircea_popescu: Should the systems be confiscated or otherwise lost the service will failover to different systems, possibly on bulletproof hosting if need be. If sufficient pressure is put on this side MPEx will be recoded as
a p2p system.
mircea_popescu: In case the domain is confiscated or otherwise lost MPEx will move to
a different domain, in
a different jurisdiction. Should the same happen again, MPEx would move to what will at the time be
a solid alternative for
a free Internet, be it the TOR network, namecoin or some equivalent DNS or any comparable solution. No government will ever be able to stop the Internet, in general. We're prepared to show this in the particular.
