CheckDavid: Which platform do you suggest
to fund a startup?
TestingUnoDosTre: yes.
the bet was stated
that
the ratio of MMM
to BTC would stay above .2 until may or something of
the sort
mircea_popescu: TestingUnoDosTre i vaguely recall some discusison re a 3m bet a month or so ago, was
this
the same one ?
TestingUnoDosTre: MP, I
tried making a bet on 3M
that was worded very similar
to
the berkshire one, and
the mods rejected it because it was outlandish
VanCleef: i can list who else is in
the group
VanCleef: i'm sure fifa.com keep scores on
their website
VanCleef: i want
to bet
that Australia wont win one single group match for
the fifa world cup
☟︎ Mats_cd03: the next day i woke up early and had an XL jar of skippys...i
temporarily replaced blood with peanut butter for a few hours
Mats_cd03: when i was 8 a family friend
told me peanut butter was a preservative and i could live forever if i ate enough of it at once
mircea_popescu: and
the 1year berkshire based btc bond just went
to 3%
ozbot: BitBet - Bitcoin
to surpass Berkshire as an investment
mircea_popescu: what was
that shop
that'd deep fry anything ? butter, water, icecream
mircea_popescu: try
taking 100k out of your savings, buying gold bricks and driving
them
to mexico.
Mats_cd03: i still have 2 frozen
turkeys from
thanksgiving
benkay: firestartr are some no-names, iirc
ThickAsThieves
mircea_popescu: speaking of
turkeys in new york : "ground
turkey meat, was $2 for 20 oz. 2.5 years ago on sale ; it's $4.50 for 20 oz. on sale now."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sure you are, because
they CLAIOM
to be convertible
benkay: bitstamp's running fractional
too, right?
gribble: Bitstamp BTCUSD

VanCleef: 3 chinese bitcoiners were executed
today
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suspect
that
ties into my "dual currency" earlier :
ThickAsThieves: that would effectively recreate
the situation you are going for
Mats_cd03: i
think
the confusion here lays with
the recent depreciation of btc/usd and
the capital RS actually needs
to be denominated in usd
mike_c: topace said it can't, but also
that he isn't involved so he doesn't know.
benkay: welcome
to
this morning,
ThickAsThieves
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves do
they actually do
this as ppl claim or not ?
ThickAsThieves: <the20year3> HL will automatically suspend all buy orders under .0075, so all buys have
to go in at .0075 //// dafuck?
mircea_popescu: its been discussed in
teh at some point coupla months ago, i don't recall
the specifics
mircea_popescu: much of rent is predicated on its operator familiarirt with
the field,
that doesn't seem
to
translate
too well across a geographic distance
VanCleef: i
think he should just sell
the shares for 0.008 instead
benkay: cannot
touch both fiat and crypto at once
mircea_popescu: which incidentally begs
the question, why a merger with someone in a diff market ? does it benefit from equally good economics ?
benkay: they're crossing
the wires
though
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform apparently ohio or w/e
this one is has very advantageous economics for
this business
mike_c: asciilifeform: well, no strong indications
that it is run by scammers. just
that
they don't understand
their relationship with havelock very well..
VanCleef: i dont know just haven't heard from
them since
mike_c: ^ heh. "rent shares rose on news
that
they will soon be forced
to be worth 0.0075 btc"
mircea_popescu: VanCleef i have no idea, were
they due a report or something ?
benkay: the20year3: do please explain precisely how
this new
tranche is working
mircea_popescu: kind-of a pity in
that a well managed business on
those lines makes some sense.
benkay: who knows - maybe
there's
three more months of going short btc via rent
benkay: the bet would be does
the wall get eaten or rentalstarter fall apart first
benkay: topace: you can't make any claims about
the code
they're running if you can't make any claims about
the code
they're running.
benkay: mircea_popescu: explain it like i'm at least
twelve
topace: im sorry i can only comment on what i see on
the site, i dont see a new
tranche?
the20year3: I don't
think
they can put in an indefinite sell wall , and at any rate
there's no reason for us
to fundraise past $1.5m USD
benkay: massive sell wall at 0.0075
that never gets eaten?
mike_c: so what,
the block of shares is just released at
the same
time
that open market
trading continues?
topace: there's no "you cant place orders below 0.0075 in
the code"
topace: because i wrote
the code
mike_c: next "tranche" of RENT shares is going
to be sold at 75, but market price is 53.
benkay: well
then how can you make any claims about what can or cannot happen on
the exchange,
topace?
topace: (remember, im no longer involved in running
the exchange)
the20year3: USD price is
the same at .0075 as it was when we did
the last round at .0055
benkay: topace: how is
this next round at 0.0075 working?
benkay: the20year3: it is staggering
that you don't understand your own issuances.
mike_c: so enlighten us, how does a 2nd round ipo at a higher price
than
the market price work?
CheckDavid: You guys
trade stocks of companies on
these exchanges right with or without
the need for personal identification?
topace: the platform does not suspend orders below certain
thresholds
topace: ^ is what i was referring
to
topace: [12:40:35] <the20year3> HL will automatically suspend all buy orders under .0075, so all buys have
to go in at .0075
mircea_popescu: the general fate
to people
telling me my information is not correct is aptly represented by one
trendon shavers.
topace: im not sure where you are getting
this information
mircea_popescu: pankkake well other
than it'll likely never generate any capital, it would resolve
the problem yes.
pankkake: I mean do your second round on
the open market, not on havelock special IPO feature
mircea_popescu: but you should be somewhat more responsible, seeing how you're
tied down
to real estate.
mircea_popescu: topace is nutty enough
to imagine he's going
to escape
through some fraudulent sale
to a panama front,
mircea_popescu: the20year3 at any point you may seriously consider your involvement in
this scheme may actually result in criminal charges.
Mats_cd03: oh, i
thought
there might be a flighty finance
term
the20year3: I don't
think
they're allowed
to have an indefinite 2nd round, from my understanding we were required
to have a set 2nd round
