dub: I dont think aussie salmon has anything to do with salmon
mircea_popescu: if you figure your odds are 2:5 put 2 btc on the short odds then put .8 on the long odds and there you go.
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal: The site profits off total volume, not someone forking over a risky bet on one side << nobody prevents you from covering the short end after bet is approved.
Vexual: what are you trying to catch?
cazalla: Vexual: i always throw them back
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal: Example was. If Bitpay is worth 1Billion usd, FB forks over 1 Billion USD, FB valuation stays same << this is an example out of the "spherical chicken in vacuum" variety.
mircea_popescu: bloctoc: they would have to be sold at a later date since there are no buy orders yet. << actually that 25 was a buy order iirc

benkay: so how much did the rabbit go for?
cazalla: lol toby
Vexual: I'll have the Lapin Braisé
assbot: Savetoby.com | Only YOU have the power to Save Toby!
cazalla: i can't imagine it taste too different from chicken pate etc
cazalla: supposedly, i've never had or made it before, i've been keeping livers frozen as it didn't seem worthwhile to make a small amount and i butcher them as needed so it's not like i have a lot of livers at once
Vexual: rabbit pate is a thing?
cazalla: have a bunch of livers to make pate with on weekend too
Vexual: that sounds too good
cazalla: and some thai dipping sauce from coles heh
Vexual: he rolled up to parliment in his vintage silver shadow a few weeks back, van morrison blasting, hopped out and gave a speech to the waiting press about how politicians should pay for their own cars
cazalla: you would've loved dinner last night, crumbed rabbit, pan fried for 5 and then into oven for 30m
Vexual: well there are no details
cazalla: on his own dime or taxpayers?
Vexual: he flew gore in to stand next to him at a press conference and give the nod to repealing the carbon tax with a view to setting up interational emmissions trading
cazalla: what's he up to?
Vexual: it might make it harder to bet not chinese on the ladies tennis
benkay: i guess yours then as well
benkay: eh, that's his problem
Vexual: i think kako might anuerism
benkay: there's always tab-complete, Mats_cd03
benkay: ;;later tell TheNewDeal you had it right the first time
Mats_cd03: the bet is seeded. look at the first two wagers for each bet
TheNewDeal: Also, why is it said that BitBet "fronts" .1 BTC on the bet? I thought they split .1 BTC, some portion going to the original bettor, and the other portion is a wager that will pay the site
TheNewDeal: The site profits off total volume, not someone forking over a risky bet on one side
assbot: The results of the World Cup experiment. pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
TheNewDeal: Per the world cup article http://trilema.com/2014/the-results-of-the-world-cup-experiment/ . I think BitBet should allow zeroconf bets simultaneously on Yes and No, especially if they move to requiring a 2 BTC minimum.
benkay: no no, the market just falls over with one and not the other
Mats_cd03: nothing to do with law, this is how it works
bloctoc: you had me until "FB Stock is volatile". Meanwhile I understand the concept of hedging, I just didn't realize when I asked the question that there was such a thing as F.DERP
TheNewDeal: did my explanation make any sense about an acquisition type event?
benkay: maybe mircea_popescu comes by later to school me
benkay: for a second i was hoping to learn something there :D
assbot: Image tagged in lawgs - Imgflip
bloctoc: I see it - this whole hedging discussion makes sense now. thanks
assbot: BtcAlpha.com F.MPIF Tracker estimated NAV per share: 0.00021746 BTC (Total: 434.93 BTC). Last trade for F.MPIF on MPEX was at 0.00023849 BTC [+]
TheNewDeal: in reality, FB stock is volatile, could potentially have a large shift in the 30 day period
TheNewDeal: so the stock of the acquirer shouldn't really change
TheNewDeal: talking about an aquisition type here
TheNewDeal: in a theoretical scenario, a company pays for the worth of the startup
TheNewDeal: but the gist is this
bloctoc: I thought S.MPOE was F.DERP and I don't see F.DERP Am I Right?
benkay: what's strange about it, TheNewDeal ?
TheNewDeal: the strange thing is how the D pays out
benkay: hedging against their bringing something to market is betting that they do
benkay: yeah, F takes you short, D takes you long
TheNewDeal: F.Derp was made to short the basket of derps
TheNewDeal: against the group of derps
Mats_cd03: on the subject of bets, write a proper proposition and that can be your hedge.
TheNewDeal: F.DERP is the hedge
benkay: D.BPAY is a hedge against the fartup cirkus producing something with market value in the next year or w/e
benkay: D.BPAY or the actual shares?
bloctoc: they would have to be sold at a later date since there are no buy orders yet.
bloctoc: I don't see how anyone would be able to hedge bpay today
bloctoc: of course, it's probably more sophisticated than that
bloctoc: 25 BTC I can see not feeling too bad if you guess wrong.
mike_c: those are the shares mp is offering for sale
bloctoc: the detail page has 900 shares, the overview has 100 shares if I'm reading it right, then something's amis
TheNewDeal: I think it's slightly absurd because the whole F.Derp is just in its beginning stages
ThickAsThieves: it's not THAT absurd, if you can afford it
bloctoc: has anyone discussed how they decided to purchase 200BTC worth of BPAY?
moiety: i was marooned on the sofa for some time due to a rather fast large spider travelling around my livingroom floor
moiety: ya, i am so glad they cleared that one up
TheNewDeal: I'm getting really excited for this silk road auction. Can't wait to see how it goes down
assbot: New creationist museum explains how Noah managed to fit dinosaurs on the ark - Weird News - News - The Independent
ThickAsThieves: <+mircea_popescu> get out. they gotta be physically there too, it's not worth it /// until someone makes some AirbndUberApp that makes doublespending a crowdgoal or whatever
ThickAsThieves: <+mircea_popescu> http://a.disquscdn.com/uploads/users/9365/725/avatar92.jpg?1394547263 << tat avatar ? /// I think it's my disqus avatar
Naphex: but for signing a multisig not that bad
mike_c: "JavaScript-based cryptography" just sounds.. terrifying.
Naphex: i wouldn't care much even if 2nd key got compromised, since the raw pre-signed transaction delivered is already composed
Naphex: mike_c: its just for signing a transactions that is already composed and signed, multi sig also
mike_c: <+Naphex> maybe i can just roll something quick in js and leave it at that << famous last words?
