smickles: i don't think it should mess with the basic definition of a bond tho
mircea_popescu: smickles everything'll end up called a spv
smickles: but the fact that there isn't a maturity, repayment of the principle, etc... bond is entirely misleaing

smickles: there's a little css
mircea_popescu: have a 4th a july one, etc
mircea_popescu: evoorhees your volume grew no matter what. if there was an ipo it grew, when btc went up it grew, it's a sickness.
evoorhees: this might be a fluke, but at least thus far, the rising price has not lowered the amount of BTC bet
MoneyIsDebt: mircea_popescu: Not enough of a comeback
evoorhees: if SD maintained a leading position in the market, it'd be making FAR higher dollar amounts, but not necessarily higher BTC amounts
evoorhees: a world where btc is $1000 each is a world where the bitcoin economy is booming, tons of money flowing around
JohnSmith777: evoorhees: Could a price of say $1000 a Bitcoin do damage to your IPO?
sgornick: Any way I can do !ticker in a PM w/ gribble to get that?
usagi: You need to be careful because some of these companies will do a deal with you with the intent to take you out
evoorhees: well in any case, inagi, it's good that people have a wide array of opinions on how to "advance" bitcoin
mircea_popescu: if i were a corrupt politician i'd prefer btc.
usagi: I bought a lot of shares of your company already
usagi: It's not antagonism, it's a warning :>
evoorhees: we're building infrastructure that is allowing the normal world economy to start merging into a Bitcoin world
usagi: Doing a deal with mastercard is insanity
usagi: For one, how are you going to explain that your company has sold a portion of itself on a virtual stock exchange? If you ever IPO'd for real or made a deal with a real world company those shares would become garbage
mircea_popescu: <Luke-Jr> SatoshiDice is nothing but a DDoS attack on Bitcoin abusing gamblers to finance its attack :D
BTC-Mining: seize a computer with wallet by force and you can seize bitcoins by force...
usagi: If you include the value of your bitcoins in it you will have a big problem one day :)
mircea_popescu: <usagi> Why the hell are millions of shartes being created when each one is worth less than a penny << same reason billions of satoshis are created, neh ?
usagi: The very first thing they will do is establish a dollar value for your bitcoins
JohnSmith777: It's amazing how much activity a profitable company gets.
evoorhees: Luke-Jr - if you have a recommendation, I'd like to hear it
Obsi: I'm in for a few BTC donation to make the network more robust.
Luke-Jr: evoorhees: if you're really NOT trying to kill Bitcoin, how about hiring a developer to fix this problem?
JohnSmith777: but reality shows when something becomes a significant problem for most people
Azelphur: I shall provide a useful video as usual, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6PZhONZ3Ac :D
Luke-Jr: but when you find a bug accidentally, you don't CONTINUE TO EXPLOIT IT
rg: while its just a bunch of nerds
Luke-Jr: SatoshiDice is nothing but a DDoS attack on Bitcoin abusing gamblers to finance its attack
Luke-Jr: rg: no, because including SD comes with a huge risk of orphaned blocks, losing both the fees AND the 50 BTC
usagi: the issue imo is that satoshidice should offer a less direct service
BTCHero: coffee filters wouldn't filter out the good shit, but i imagine running butter through a coffee filter was insanely slow/didn't work
rg: i was like brostaff we need a cheesecloth
rg: we made a ton fo butter too
rg: when you connect to a bunch of DSLs
BTC-Mining: Most modern games take more than that on a computer to run
rg: its kind of a lot to ask..
rg: asking someone whos new to bitcoin to download a program plus a 2GB block of data
rg: since most people pay a lot of tx fee for satoshidice
evoorhees: SD just makes the devs fix it sooner instead of a year or two later
rg: it'd be a real big issue
rg: the blockchain as a concept is cool
evoorhees: SD has exposed a weakness of BTC and BTC will get fixed
evoorhees: FYI - to address the comment from before, the number of shares is totally irrelevant, it's just a matter of notation. 1m, 10m, or 100m shares... doesn't matter. All that matters is price per share X total shares. 100m is a nice round number so I chose it.
BTC-Mining: Also, if anyone has shares with no volume to sell down into, query me, might be interested to buy them at a discount
JohnSmith777: They would just have to sell it at a lower decimal point
JohnSmith777: If somebody wanted a stable bitcoin price
