assbot: Logged on 31-08-2014 18:52:01; asciilifeform: so, formula is: 'don't own. if you own, don't admit it. if you admit it, don't write about it. if you own and admit and write, don't sign your name. if you own, admit, write, and sign name, don't be surprised.' (apologies to rev. t. reese.)
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: but mircea_popescu once confessed that he suspected.

babbys_first_bit: Why haven't the devs or the general userbase demanded we switch from BTC to micro BTC or whatever
kakobrekla: ill tell you for a buttcoin.
babbys_first_bit: how many bitcoins will i need today to be a millionaire in 10 yrs
BingoBoingo: There's ways they can run off with coins too
dignork: babbys_first_bit: they can.
babbys_first_bit: is blockchain.info the only online wallet where the website owners can't just run off with my coins
BingoBoingo: He prolly ate them. Maybe Jed from Ripple/Stellar/WTFBBQ stole them after he sold Gox to Karpeles. hard to know.
babbys_first_bit: so that fat fucker from mt. gox, do u think he stole everyones coins or were they just "lost"
babbys_first_bit: what happens to the channel if you automatically get to speak upon arrival
BingoBoingo: But there's two of them and they are in shape from all of that rowing at indistinguishable northeastern school. You on the other hand have baby in your IRC nick and infants suck at avoiding abduction.

babbys_first_bit: I suppose unless I go around telling people IRL i've got a paper backup with my bitcoin wealth tied to it, nobody who happened to find it would even know what it meant. It's not like i wrote "ARMORY BACKUP FOR EXTREME BITCOIN WEALTH" on the backup
mike_c: or ask BingoBoingo to stick it in his mountain.
mike_c: if that bothers you, encrypt the paper wallet and then print it out.
mike_c: it's kinda the point
babbys_first_bit: I find it kind of odd how I'd need to use a USB stick combined with accessing my offline laptop with the password before I can send coins, yet if someone were to get my paper wallet and knew what those four letter words meant, they suddenly have the keys to the kingdom
mike_c: babbys_first_bit: the paper wallet gives access to coins sans password.
babbys_first_bit: Those paper wallet backups I made, if someone were to get a hold of them , and somehow know what they meant, could they steal my coins, or would they need my password?
babbys_first_bit: i have a shitty laptop that I've devoted to my cold storage, disabled wifi etc
babbys_first_bit: I've migrated from bitcoin core to Armory
BingoBoingo: Just make sure you can actually move them to an address you have sole control over
babbys_first_bit: these sub 400 coins, they're cheap right
The20YearIRCloud: Well, today we closed on another loan, putting the company back to a state with plenty o extra cash laying around.

mircea_popescu: NAT. We also show that a natural countermeasure of using Tor or other anonymity services can be cut-off by abusing anti-DoS countermeasures of the bitcoin network. Our attacks require only a few machines and have been experimentally verified. We propose several countermeasures to mitigate these new attacks.
mircea_popescu: We present an efficient method to deanonymize Bitcoin users, which allows to link user pseudonyms to the IP addresses where the transactions are generated. Our techniques work for the most common and the most challenging scenario when users are behind NATs or firewalls of their ISPs. They allow to link transactions of a user behind a NAT and to distinguish connections and transactions of different users behind the same
fluffypony: cazalla: it just looks like a rehash of the first movie but with better CGI
cazalla: fluffypony: Jurassic World trailer is out <<< i could not be more disappointed
mircea_popescu: outside of biochemistry and perhaps some aeronautics, i struggle to think of a field where research is done in english
