mike_c: my understanding is
the cp risk is
that jurov will run off
to antartica with
their assets.
jurov: not a concern, just
thinking loud
mircea_popescu: jurov
the point is not
to give a n accurate list of accounts.
the point is
to have checkpoints showing you're not spending it on booze.
mthreat: I
think it was on HN, oddly enough
mthreat: nope.. just saw it on
the news
jurov: and it can change substantially in
the course of month, maybe it should be published more often
mircea_popescu: jurov what's
the concern,
that a bid gets hit just as you post ?
assbot: Former Goldman Options

Taxi King - Bloomberg
jurov: mircea so you have no problem
to compare stuff in past point of
time?
godovo: they used gribble auth
to prove
the nick really was him
mike_c: looks like
the localbitcoins florida case?
mircea_popescu: jurov
this could work. you publish
the list once a month on your blog, as mike describes,
then i verify
the
totals.
mike_c: that way you can verify your account_id is on
the list without it being public
mike_c: depositor insurance:
the insurer publishes a list like
this: coinbr insured accounts - sha256(act_id): amount, sha256(act_id): amount
godovo: fluffypony just as important as
the dude part
unseen: mike_c seems
to have a different quality
than anything else in
the bitcoin sphere. kinda like it.
unseen: mike_c I decided
to
trust MPEX.
mircea_popescu: how
the heck does one structure a depositor insurance
thing in btc ;/
mike_c: well of course. mpex could
too.
unseen: mike_c any company may run off with your BTC. Even if
they looked legit for some
time.
mike_c: jurov:
that might not be prohibitive. can't do hft anyway.
jurov: mike_c whole setup makes api unfeasible. unless i limit it
to 1 call/user/ 5 seconds
mike_c: or, maybe he needs an interface like mpex. might be a bigger market for
that
than one would
think.
assbot: EU Aims at Russian Banks,
Technology in Widest Sanctions - Bloomberg
unseen: mike_c counter-party risk. I like
the PGP signed order system.
mircea_popescu: (i know you
think you know how it works, but srsly, read
that
thing)
assbot: What
the WoT is for, how it works and how
to use it. pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: but essentially,
the barriers are
there
to help you not
to hinder you. like railings on mountain roads.
mircea_popescu: maybe buy a safe vehicle build with you in mind, like mpif,
through a broker
mircea_popescu: it's really a bad idea
to get involved in bitcoin investment if 30 btc is a major hit
to your holdings.
mike_c: unseen: if you
think mpex is going
to continue
to be relevant and an account would be useful
to you,
then it's not expensive.
mircea_popescu: much like irl sovereignity is invested in
the king, personally.
mircea_popescu: there's no such
thing as "a business account". businesses exist as declarations from people in
the wot. sovereignity in business is invested with
the principals,
the business is just a wrapper.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: my result is we need a new wot <<< what nonsense is
this ?!
mike_c: the mistake is
the "just"
unseen: mircea_popescu
true
that.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: i dont understand why
the line was ever
there
though really << because children, essentially.
mircea_popescu: unseen you know what
they say, best
time
to open a mpex acct was when it was free. 2nd best is now.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: probly removed cuz
they wanna use whatever
the fuck amount whenever
the fuck << well it looked funny cycling it 5k at a
time.
unseen: 13.5k € just
to open an account, dang.

mircea_popescu: fucking
trolls
these people. Subject: IMMEDIATE VERIFICATION required ; Body : [blablabla] You have a 15 day window from
the
time of
the original registration
to verify
the email address.
mircea_popescu: you could offer 13 + 0.1 btc if
they write
the domain on
their
tits...
kakobrekla: whoever doesnt
take my 13 bucks offer is an idiot
mircea_popescu: which it has btw, 12.9 by now,
this baby's gonna default.
mircea_popescu: unseen well you can do whatever you want, but imagine i wrote
to
the new york
times
to ask
them
to revalue
their subscripton costs because
the "value" of
the dolar in argentine pesos has changed.
unseen: mircea_popescu i still convert BTC
to fiat in my head before spending, bad habit I guess. ..
mike_c: hell, i would
take it for $200 for
trolling :)
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla how many people call you a faggot in
the averagde week ?
fluffypony: if
the fee was set in USD but BTC was accepted as payment it would fluctuate (in BTC
terms), but if it's set in BTC it stays in BTC
unseen: (noob prepares
to get flamed)
mike_c: unseen: yup. coinbr lowered its pricing
though
kakobrekla: mike_c iirc someone
tried
to sell it
that
to me
unseen: so it is still 30BTC
to join MPEX? used
to be
the same when BTC value was a lower?
mike_c: speaking of dashes in urls. feels wrong
that some squatter has bitcoinassets.com
mircea_popescu: anyway, i readily grant fluffypony's much better
than bitcoinpete.
mircea_popescu: and i'll be like... hey
this here is ben vulpes, master of
the vulpes. and
this is pete d from canada
mircea_popescu: dude we'll be like, in an airport with some russian doods one day,
to watch how obama's plane is being shot down
unseen: General interest in MPEX, also you blog is fun
to read
mike_c: bingo is
the bash master. he must have hotkeys.
unseen: mircea_popescu: been lurking here for some
time.
fluffypony: kakobrekla: change yours
to kako_brekla
fluffypony: it's going
to
take me weeks
to get used
to
this
gribble: pete_dushenski was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 13 hours, 32 minutes, and 24 seconds ago: <pete_dushenski>
thanks be
to nanotube !
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski hey get in
touch when you have a moment
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell pete_dushenki hey get in
touch when you have a moment
mircea_popescu: trixisowned:
they removed
this line <<< somehow one's unsurprised.
mike_c: (hello
to my children from
the past)
ben_vulpes: lady v's already pretty set on
tallulah for a female name
mircea_popescu: the horror of
the interwebs you know, imagine you're 40, just got divorced, and while going
through some old websites find a convo where your parents decided your name 2 years prior
to birth in an irc chat.
mircea_popescu: it's like
the best girl name anyway, but like
this... omfg, i'll pay.
kakobrekla: you still
think
there is a risk of
that eh
mircea_popescu: you never want
to
take away consumer fucktard's excuse. he gets pannicky and all
the injured vanity yields rage.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla because consumer fucktard would really rather wait
than do anything else
mircea_popescu: totally
their occuring in separate geographic locations has ntohing
to do with
the fact
that well, so did myths, pre-internet.
