Doffx: As long as you could sell at the 1btc and not lose it would be
a decent bond
Doffx: Its like ppt, only at 1.5% and matures in 3 months instead of 1 and you get
a div each month
Azelphur: sorta like
a passthrough, only all the banks
smickles: this would be, you pay 1btc to get
a bond, it pays 0.015 each month for 3 months, then pays 1 btc
smickles: Azelphur: nope, the shares get paid
a dividend
Ignatius-otc: oh,its
a good one MoneyIsDebt. where did I put that link...

a grand total of 2165 BTC over 4 separate transactions, each of those 4 requests being filled within minutes.
Chaaang-Noi: ill place

usagi: Seriously though, Goat, when will you put up
a bid wall for your insured bond? how will you ahndle it?
usagi: MoneyIsDebt actually I do, as I am
a fully enlightened buddhist master, I understand everything.
Chaaang-Noi: i know your
a girl and what not but i dont need to understand them to get what i want...
MoneyIsDebt: I'm planning
a trip to Thailand next month. Lovely place
Chaaang-Noi: i dont understand, are you guys saying sex is
a sin or something? cuz that is not the way it works in thailand, i love budhists...
mircea_popescu: rg : i haven't had sex with
a single woman yet this year.
rg: two wrongs dont make
a right
rg: because she lets you is
a terrible reason to betray your wife
Chaaang-Noi: 1, she is not here. 2, she understands im
a man. i love thai culture.
mircea_popescu: say. did bitlane request
a withdrawal from pirate which got no response
smickles: it's watching 'saturdaynight fever' 18 time in
a row
usagi: and will buy another 50 shares in
a sec
smickles: 'well, pirate wasn't
a ponzi, so this other guy offering >5% per week probably isn't either"
smickles: it will create
a lot of suckers
mircea_popescu: <Ignatius-otc> on the contrary chaang, I expect many

Ignatius-otc: on the contrary chaang, I expect many
a pirate clone to spin up many
a ponzi offering astronomical rates:)
dub: I would have had
a bunch
mircea_popescu: buncha gold digger jewish moms going in high pitch "o alfred ?! alfred's
a multithousandaire!!!"
mircea_popescu: for the first time in history we'll see thousandaire being
a big fucken deal.
Ignatius-otc: Where I live it will take me over 1m usd to live as
a middle class citizen for the remainder of my life, because of that I have
a potentially unique definition of "rich". I don;t think pirate got rich from this, but I guess its possible.
mircea_popescu: you know, actually, thinking about it... that's
a funny thing.
MoneyIsDebt: Who really knows? He could have been
a millionaire in USD already before this started
mircea_popescu: MoneyIsDebt well... actually... something
a lot like what happened earlier today lol
jcpham: more than
a car, less than house
MoneyIsDebt:
A bunch will be sold though. And I'm guessing, as it's gradually sold over the week, pirate can pick them up cheap, and repay his debt at big profit.
Ignatius-otc: ahh, so you think the funds are not even there to cover the outstanding debts. interesting. hell of
a day regardless gang!
Doffx: he made
a bet against it, made me lots of btc! :)
mircea_popescu: i still think it'll go badly, as in, no repayments. however, i'm very happy to see that there's
a definite solution to the problem now, so im kinda curious.
Ignatius-otc: It would generally be safe to assume that yes, 7% is far too high of
a return weekly.
Ignatius-otc: I was reading
a thread one day with numerous pirate ponzi attacks. One fairly respected poster said anyone can see what pirate does by simply reading his posts. Within an hour of skimming pirates posts I felt I knew what he was doing, and it wasnt
a ponzi. But again...just my opinion. It gave the impression those who called ponzi never even read the mans posts or checked his history.
Doffx: the rest has just been
a really cool conversation
Doffx: It has given me
a great bit of new knowledge thats for sure.
mircea_popescu: bitcoin has this great advantage, that it's quite
a cheap way to learn financials.
area: To be honest, the way it's bouncing around, even
a market-maker bot will be doing pretty okay
assbot: [GLBSE] [PPT.
