mircea_popescu: lmao. you are trying to hide behind the skirts of MY pr ?
mircea_popescu: smickles for my curiosity, what repay scheme do you use ? everyone who claims % equal to what you have liquid + settlement/final payment once 100% liquidates ?
mircea_popescu: yeah. was like... tech picked up, person said hi tech said "it's back"
mircea_popescu: im just agreeing lol. srsly, wouldn't surprise me if the girl missed out something, jsut on sheer volume
mircea_popescu: well mind you, what you understood and what it says may be different things.
mircea_popescu: so in general it's worth arguing things to their ends.
mircea_popescu: rdponticelli what we do, even if for 8 or 9 btc, has the value of creating precedent
mircea_popescu: rdponticelli gimme a quote ? it's possible girl might have missed it.
mircea_popescu: now that you're all in written form. what do you do, explain the court that you in fact DID pay
mircea_popescu: but wtf i mean suppose someone sends notice of non payment
mircea_popescu: gigavps i did notice you never actualyl said what you were doing with the claims once complete, so i figure it's because it's the obvious thing
mircea_popescu: i thought you'll go here is a final payment offer, lala.
mircea_popescu: gigavps da fuck. won't that even cost more than the payments to administer ?!
mircea_popescu: you seriously are going to be paying weekly btc after your claims are complete ?!
mircea_popescu: i thought the entire problem was you didn't have a way to identify owners that's reliable
mircea_popescu: it's impractical to keep fiddling with the shit forever.
mircea_popescu: i don't intend to make any more than one payment to claimants, which'd be final and negotiated.
mircea_popescu: Ukto i doubt it makes much sense for giga to pay dividends "normally". i would expect he makes some sort of final settlement.
mircea_popescu: all this is very fucking c ommon and veryfucking sane, except for people that really have no idea howfinance works.
mircea_popescu: alternatively, guy goes "here's a signed statement of no further claims, pay me X". if x is reasonable he'll also get it.
mircea_popescu: etf guy emails me going listen! i had 1000 etf shares. giga paid 0.15 btc! I should get something!
mircea_popescu: giga finally is done with his process sometime. say january.
mircea_popescu: well, not regardless. if the stuff giga does ends up having a value in fact
mircea_popescu: the problem with being friendly to small timers is that then you end up stuck with a horde of very silly people.
mircea_popescu: also, it seemed friendlier to smalltimers, as in, not have to require minimum x hundred btc investment.
mircea_popescu: it seemed logical at the time, simplify everyone's maintenance of it.
mircea_popescu: <pigeons> yeah i figured originally i would have an easier time getting GIGA divdends from MP than from nefario if GLBSE went south << this would be true. however, glbse going south + giga going taxid/etc is a different story.
mircea_popescu: <Ukto> pigeons: he removed all records of the asset from accounts though, is my udnerstanding << you srsly should read that 3 hour discussion. the shares were removed from current holdings. all historical info is still there, and also here, on the twitter feed, etc.
mircea_popescu: <pigeons> well mircea_popescu claims that "he always stated" that he intended the passthrough to be zero work/maintenance << should i quote ?
mircea_popescu: <Ukto> he bought shares of giga from giga direct? or on glbse << i bought bonds before the glbse ipo. they were transformed into glbse shares when giga decided later to put up with nefario's bs. i didn't want to, but i didn't make a huge point out of it either because at the time nefario hadn't yet quite shown himself for the huge cock he was/i didn't know better.
mircea_popescu: <jurov> if f.giga.etf is supposed to have some value, why nobody asked mircea to arrange buyback on december 1st? << why did it trade 3 days out of 30 for the 30 days BEFORE the announcement moreover.
mircea_popescu: if it ends up over 16 those c140t lose money for sure.
mircea_popescu: for i got lost reading in there for about an hour, that' for!
mircea_popescu: <Diablo-D3> and lying about the continued state of lying and shippingness <<< theyre the bitcoin flagship corp, neh ?
mircea_popescu: isn't 20 mission the thing tradehill people (mckenna et co) made with the money they stole off customers ?
