mircea_popescu: taub how you mean ?
mircea_popescu: mpex makes sure there's warm server soup on the table.
mircea_popescu: just like a successful marriage.
mircea_popescu: yeah
mircea_popescu: <Bugpowder> Mpex is a sideshow <<< if it weren't for mpex there'd have been no divs this month at all.
mircea_popescu: atm mpoe is a 0 capital venture, which is a good thing.
mircea_popescu: well, imo it would just muddy the waters.
mircea_popescu: what's a warchest ?
mircea_popescu: as in, i don't set a %, i just take whatever the max was
mircea_popescu: well ya on this month. i rarely participate in the actual market.
mircea_popescu: if that's true then bondholders have been mispricing their %
mircea_popescu: by a wide margin, with a lot of depth etc.
mircea_popescu: mpoe-bonds are pretty much the highest reward / highest risk actgion in btc.
mircea_popescu: thestrin1puller well they don't really. the idea is they're taking on risk for a high %
mircea_popescu: when a hurricane hits the insurer pays through the teeth.
mircea_popescu: it's sort of like insurance, if you will. you pay a little every month
mircea_popescu: for this service it charges.
mircea_popescu: so other people can sell their exposure and increase their safety.
mircea_popescu: but this is what it does. mpoe bot is in the market of buying exposure.
mircea_popescu: sometimes you'll take a beating.
mircea_popescu: listen, there's no way to make a bot so you always win.
mircea_popescu: thestrin1puller what'd 2.0 be like ?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves you send no less than 100 btc to 1JPvucRfu3ZzEvfBUQTJwsxMrZjeTqD6zR ending in 888 (so like 100.00000888) after you've emailed me stating your beneficiary addy and desired %
mircea_popescu: thestrin1puller they are lol. i hold most of mpoe and held most of the bond book >.<
mircea_popescu: then again... i guess i can see it. shareholders don't care, not their skin. made a 39 per which is not really much lower than usual
mircea_popescu: kinda incredible
mircea_popescu: wait it went up ?
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder girl said he was there to warn everyone about her shirt
mircea_popescu: it DOES make unignored people look like muppets when they're in effect talking to themselves lol
mircea_popescu: this is true.
mircea_popescu: OneMiner prolly ignore works better than banning people.
mircea_popescu: i tell you, running the options book is the worst fucking racket there is. when you get no trade you're depressed, when you do get trade you're worried.
mircea_popescu: fucking hell am i going to be paying .6 btc worth 200 each on these ?
mircea_popescu: http://www.youtube.com/embed/LJP1DphOWPs << this guy...
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder anyway, the variance would be fucking high. +400% a month fml.
mircea_popescu: if not enough bonds sell i'm covering.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i've always backstopped the bot, since day one.
mircea_popescu: not for me to dick around in the fabric of the universe.
mircea_popescu: the correct fix is for bond ppl to set appropriatge interests
mircea_popescu: any tweak is fundamentally market intervention
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder the issue is that people make assumption based on the algo as is
mircea_popescu: bot hasn't been altered fundamentally since 2011
mircea_popescu: <ThickAsThieves> my only question is, has the bot algo been adjusted to mitigate this exposure in the future << no.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves why not just put a bid ?
mircea_popescu: lol
