mircea_popescu: before anyone thinks the data is valuable, the data is not valuable.
mircea_popescu: as soon as someone thinks the data is actually valuable, the service will exist
mircea_popescu: certainly end up stronger that way (even if some fail along the way)
mircea_popescu: i don't want to be a broker, or a data provider, or a whatever myself. rather than try and do everything i'd much rather see a lot of people each do something.
mircea_popescu: mpex is about creating more or less the correct niching of the space
mircea_popescu: the idea is that someone should start a service offering all that.

mircea_popescu: its funny how them kids work, mentally.
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: basically... he's not sensitive enough for the liberal club. what now ?
mircea_popescu: n bitcoins hard enough and that he's glad that the guy sold his bitcoins because that means that there would be more available for Erik to purchase. He said something like, "This just shows that money always flows from the weak hands to the strong hands," and that his strong hands would be ready to snatch bitcoins from unfaithful bitcoiners. It's some of the stupidest poo poo I've ever heard."
mircea_popescu: "Honestly, from what I've seen of him, he's bad but he's no worse than Erik Voorhees, who posted above him. Erik says the stupidest true believer bullshit all the time. He spews Bruce-level garbage. My favorite is when, during the last crash, a distraught bitcoiner was whining about having to sell his bitcoins for less than he paid for them in order to not be living on the street. Erik told him that he didn't believe i

mircea_popescu: evoorhees prolly has a lot to do with all the people giving him attention this way
mircea_popescu: still plenty of potential upside...
mircea_popescu: ;;ticker
mircea_popescu: not all of the large mpex withdrawals are erik, fwiw.
