mircea_popescu: seems
to have been "going
to" in 2012 and
then suddenly dissapeared.
assbot: Australian Company

AdamIRAway: 5. Australians can make BPAY Deposits (it's an Australian
thing), but we convert
this
to USD at around 2.5 % better
than most banks will. International clients can do a SWIFT
transfer direct into our USD account.
The other Australian exchange
trades AUD/XBT, but we chose USD
to provide greater liquidity.
AdamIRAway: 4. Most people, particularly Australians (but other nationalities also), can verify
themselves online within minutes, usually without having
to submit any identification documents. In some cases we can't automatically verify
that, we can still verify manually.
AdamIRAway: 3. We have a very rich API. I realise other exchanges have
this also, but not so in Australia.
AdamIRAway: 2. Rather
than launch something quickly, we developed an enterprise level
trading system over a period of
twelve months and followed best practice in software development
to develop a platform
that we believe is secure, robust and stable. My own background as well as
that of our CTO is in enterprise software development, and previously worked for many financial institutions in Australia.
AdamIRAway: 1. Rather
than rely on a
technology/IT focused
team (which is my own background), we brought onboard a lot of
the executive
team and investors with FX Markets, Investment Banking and Finance background, which I
think has helped in many of
the decisions we have made, and connections
that we have made, and gives better overall balance and credibility
to what we do.
AdamIRAway: I realise some other exchanges do some of
these
things, but some of
the ways I
think
that Independent Reserve is ahead of a lot of our competition is...
AdamIRAway: mircea_popescu...
there's a number of
things we do right, particularly compared with others in
the Australia-Pacific region.
mircea_popescu: cazalla yeah, i feel you. but should really be one paragraph at best. just
the details.
cazalla: mircea_popescu,
that's an idea, i like
to cover
them just so i know if/when
they close i have something
to refer back
to if
they change
their story at
that point
mircea_popescu: everyone OTHER
than ms has a year
to either discontinue
their business or fix it.
mircea_popescu: <undata> oh good, more legislation << asciilifeform has it. "everyone ever worked for microsoft, one year in prison per year worked, plus one year in prison per 100k in salary ever received. sentences over 20 years commuted
to death."
undata: asciilifeform:
they're going
to make hacking even more illegal; you'll see!
mircea_popescu: cazalla i imagine
these should really be all massed into one weekly post or something. X, Y and Z opened. K L and M closed."
AdamIR: mircea_popescu - I joined #bitcoin-otc. Will have a look in more detail later,
thanks.
undata: << "Our government and our businesses are in a daily fight against hackers," Pawlenty said. "It's getting increasingly concerning, and it needs
to be met with action by Congress." >>
mircea_popescu: AdamIR get in
the wot. actually why aren';t you in
there already ?
assbot: Independent Reserve -
The Bitcoin Market
AdamIR: Thanks for
the invitation and introduction cazalla.
cazalla: mircea_popescu,
that's Adam
Tepper from
that new aussie exchange
mircea_popescu: this was
the mechanism of
the previous hard fork : .8 miners included
tx rejected by
the network, moved on a different chain.
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> if 0.9 says "this
txn sucks!" but an 0.6 miner included it,
this
takes us right
to a hard fork << yep
bounce: ``In August 2012 we first announced
that we would downrank sites for which we received a large number of valid DMCA notices.'' --
they get flooded with bot-generated "DMCA notices". what do
they do
to make sure
they're "valid"? looking at youtube, not
that much.
assbot: Google
to nix piracy sites in search rank - Computer Business Review
ben_vulpes: if 0.9 says "this
txn sucks!" but an 0.6 miner included it,
this
takes us right
to a hard fork
ben_vulpes: no it's
totally in
the
transaction processing rules
ben_vulpes: so: isStandard() -
this is not related
to blockchain and
transaction processing rules, correct?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Nothing I said contradicts
that conclusion. At $900k/BTC a lot of
things become possibilities
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: And maybe people learn not
to visit datacenters uninvited...
☟︎ cazalla: irc.oz.org #ir but i've invited
them here
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well what protected
the Wasp's bag?
mircea_popescu: anyway, guy's prose is rather florid, but
there IS a news bit in
there.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you know
ther's really no diff
the site makes. if commentary went
to a special page you had
to click for
then i see it
BingoBoingo: I hit publish on Pete's piece, in
the Commentary category not
the news category.
cazalla: mike_c, which pete linked
to but it's a commentary and as news alone, i don't
think anyone cares what someone said regarding bitcoin so it could only be commentary on qntra
mike_c: nothing wrong with
this in a commentary, but I would also like
to be able
to read
the un-slanted version.
mike_c: "
the world's largest banks gathered
together
to hold hands and sing kumbaya in
the hope
that Bitcoin would be gentle"
mike_c: generally
the editorial
that is slanted is not
the only source of news on
the
topic.
mike_c: ok,
that is good. but
that is also news i would like
to have.
mike_c: i don't mean
to poop on pete, but his is
the one i just read.
mike_c: all communication has a slant. a news article should strive
to have less
than a blogger.
mike_c: or,
to rephrase. a news article shouldn't have as much of a slant as a blog post.
mike_c: should
the news have as much of a slant as a blog post?
ben_vulpes: does anyone in la serenissima have a copy of
the bitcoin repository of june 2012 vintage?

xanthyos: <@xanthyos> AND SB SAW MY PENIS, WHICH IS LIKE A GRANDMOTHER
TO ME, SINCE MINE DIED
mircea_popescu: "I am Ratna, 47 years, still having good figure, which is a result of satisfying fucking with different people during last 15 year. In my first 32 year I
took only one cock in my cunt whereas in next 15 year I must have
taken at least 3000 cocks in my body.
This all because of my only son."
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo hopefully you have footnotes plug-in
that accepts double brackets ?
BingoBoingo: Just needs
to work long enough
to pass "hello Wor[melts]" kind of like reverse moon probe

kakobrekla: shutthefuckup in
this metaphysical conversation
kakobrekla: even if you have a netpipe straight down its sill easy
to undercut it
BingoBoingo: But who knows? maybe drilling netpipe
to china will be feasible eventually
kakobrekla: isnt cutting
the net pipe
the first and
the last
thing ?
