SubCreative: so scam or pump/dump is kind of out of
the question by now...
SubCreative: danielpbarron: You can
try
to
think of it any way you want, we've been around for ~6 months already with no premine and no serious pump/dumps
TheNewDeal: lets say I'm a dispensary purchasing 2kg of medical grade cannabis from a supplier. Is bitcoin
too slow?
danielpbarron: SubCreative, a Bitcoin
transaction is practically instantaneous -- you'll have
to come up with a better pitch
than
that for your scamcoin if you want
to attract any suckers
gribble: Error:

decimation: in
theory one could operate a bitcoin<-> usd atm in a pot shop
SubCreative: Just for our merchants in
the industry of cannabis.
SubCreative: Im currently developing an entire merchant processing solution and custom
trade service.
SubCreative: And it's not just a currency, we're a network offering
tools and services.
TheNewDeal: it's easy enough
to stick an atm in a weed shop
SubCreative: Bitcoin is
too slow for real world
transactions.
decimation: cannabis in
the us cannot be purchased with 'bank dollars'
SubCreative: Im from Seattle, WA one of
two legal recreational states for marijuana.
danielpbarron: what?
the industry needs it's own curreny
to debase? What "needs" does Bitcoin not fulfill?
TheNewDeal: on a scale of 1
to 10, how is cannacoin's usability?
kakobrekla: will you make
the password unforgettable?
jamesonwa: It's not industry specific
to our needs.
kakobrekla: why does
the cannabis industry need a coin of its own?
danielpbarron: why shouldn't
the "cannabis industry" use bitcoin?
kakobrekla: actually i dont
think its paid since if you want
to get anything done with kraken you must post a some sort of 'complaint'
to ze forum.
TheNewDeal: looks like all
the bitstamp bots have gone
to sleep
kakobrekla: and
the response re bug: Dargo,
thanks for your fast reply.
That speak loud. Many other exchanges are run by monkeys with funny hats! I'll sure look up for unleashing
the kraken Smiley
TheNewDeal: is
this just a raw
translation of bitbet, or is it some scamsite?
kakobrekla: security measures so complex
they cant understand
them
them selfs?
kakobrekla: >We have a lot of security measures designed
to prevent
theft of Bitcoins, and recently we've had a bug with
the security measures
that sometimes causes withdrawals
to get stuck. It's been hard
to diagnose, because often it's just a handful of withdrawals
that get stuck, which doesn't give us a lot of diagnostic data. We actually did an update
today
that we
think might resolve
the issue, but we won't know for sure until
time passes and
tokyopotato: i really need
to figure out
this WoT
thing
decimation: asciilifeform: your algorithm is a simple version of
the "cordic algorithm" which is in use by nearly all dsp pros
mike_c: big lol.
ty for pointing
that out.
TheNewDeal: oh my,
the hidden
text is quality on
that one
mike_c: i don't know how resistant yandex is
to black hat seo.
mike_c: depends where
they get
traffic from. if
they are pushing seo hard maybe
they will be ranking higher
than you.
mircea_popescu: there's kinda 0 incentive
to report
them from a game pov.
mircea_popescu: actually
them being obscure is
their main advantage, which is a large part of why i wrote about it
mike_c: of course. you can report
them
to google (and maybe even yandex?)
mike_c: my
thoughts go down
the path of: 1) start pinging
their site, see when it updates. 2) correlate with my server logs and see where
they are scraping from
mike_c: unless you just want
to put
them on
the ignore list.
mike_c: depends on what
they said. more communication = more opportunities for slipup/information.
mircea_popescu: mike_c here's
the problem : would you credit anything
they said ?
mike_c: i was
thinking more like 'i c you are valuable affiliate partner, who are you?'
kakobrekla: yeah, i have been degraded
to secretary and now i
take it up
the ass
too.
mircea_popescu: email is kako's dept, and i
think he prefers
the passive role.
mike_c: also, did you
try emailing
them yet?
mircea_popescu: you have no idea how fast bums can go
through widnfalls.
mike_c: must be crappy machine
translation. ascii?
kakobrekla: my guess is
thermos is not a bum with
the forum coins.
mike_c: any of
those guys russian?
theymos, nefario, etc.?
kakobrekla: <mircea_popescu> what i don't get is
the partial russian
translation here and
there < my guess is it wants
to justify its legitimacy by providing
translation service.
mike_c: oh, derp. ic on
trilema
mircea_popescu: what i don't get is
the partial russian
translation here and
there
mike_c: they get bored quickly. how did you find it? usually
they don't get much
traffic
kakobrekla: btw
the content on .su is like 10 days old
assbot: SHRTURL -
The web editor
mike_c: heh, me doing
the scam site? plz. btcalpha is more up
to date
than
that
thing.
mircea_popescu: except no bitbet scam reports exist, but for libertard heaven
there's no need
to actually have anything at all. you can just make a sum of all
the
things you don't have.
mircea_popescu: lol at
that glowfrost redditard. "oh, all
the bitbet scam reports".
mircea_popescu: so if he's
that dumb how did he manage
to make
the clone work.
ThickAsThieves: seems like a great setup, he can copycat while getting referrals and
then one day cash
that in by selectively scamming
kakobrekla: its a good idea really. he gets all
the money, bitbet does all
the work. i wish i came up with it!
mircea_popescu: i mean... for any conceivable goal
there's a better approach
ThickAsThieves: why does something have
to be going on other
than a guy
that wants
to get as many referrals as possible (insecure methods aside)
mircea_popescu: cue six weeks campaign about how "bitbet is a scam" and
the burial of
the actual scams, from high
to low.
mircea_popescu: once
the divergence between bitbet and
the rest was painfully obvious, bfl put 500+ btc on bitbet,
then failed
to deliver. bitbet didn't cancel
their bet.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform bfl scammer, had a deal with betsofbitco.in and other similar junklets
to make a fake bfl will deliver bet,
then call it "unresolvable" and cancel if
they don't.
assbot: Here’s a mystery
the Internet may wish
to help elucidating. pe
