mircea_popescu: a GANG of weaboos ?
this reminds me of
the old mp skit about
the evil grannies.
ThickAsThieves: seriously, at
this point i wanna beat him down just because
nubbins`: it's a wonder
that a gang of weeaboos hasn't violently assaulted karplelelel yet
Mats_cd03: they prob emptied a cold wallet or five before
they knee about
the bug
Bugpowder: what was
the last wallet address
they signed from?
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder lolsuit. remember
they still owe
the bitcoinica btc ?
Bugpowder: Any actual lawsuit shutdown payout will probably come up with a market valuation for
the BTC and disburse assets accordingly
dexX7_: almost 3k
traded
today on bitcoinbuilder.com, no idea how much went
through -otc
nubbins`: lelling at
the goxbtc-for-realbtc
trade in -otc
these days
mircea_popescu: that's a modest server really spitting out all
that shit.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how clearer
than "we're only executing sell orders if
they're over XXX arbitrary value" you can get.
jcpham: i still say masterful manipulation on mtgox's part for not being proven
to do it yet
jcpham: unless you guys know of some specific citable proof
that mtgox internally is doing
this
mircea_popescu: it usually fucks him in
the ass, but he keeps a stiff upper buttlip and limps on.
mircea_popescu: that's ok, jcpham just has
this insane british passion of arguing for
the dead underdog.
jcpham: i've always
thought it was gox
jcpham: very interesting
to see if it stops and where
jcpham: i can't
tell which yet
jcpham: either masterful manipulation of
throngs of users who expect insolvency
jcpham: goxfail is an interesting dynamic
to follow
ThickAsThieves: lawsky: "I
think new, careful regulations, especially related
to preventing money laundering, will make banks more comfortable with Bitcoin-related activity over
time."

Mats_cd03: certainly not
trillions but i could see hundreds of millions being feasible
ThickAsThieves: well
this is a guy
that has an arsenal of red
tape and idiocy at his disposal
Mats_cd03: i
think its relatively easy
to launder bitcoin
mircea_popescu: so far bitcoin's been helped more by people
that hated it
mircea_popescu: tbh i kinda like
the guy. i mean he looks uncomfortable as all hell and plenty clueless,
ThickAsThieves: "there is no evidence
that money-launderers , South American Drug Barrons or international
terrorist have , of have any intention of EVER using Bitcoin (
The
transaction logs on
the blockchain will render
them
traceable ) So
they will stick with
the good old fashioned Dollar ( latest estimates is
that
there is over 1.5trillion Dollars involved world-wide ) any comments Ben ?"
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves bad medium for
that approach. i can afford it with noobs here cause
they're stuck with me. amas
tho...
nubbins`: the other 1 in
ten have heard of me
ThickAsThieves: it's more putting
the
topic on
the
table
to see what he says
mircea_popescu: ask some chick you met in a bar if she'd agree she's never going
to get satisfactorily laid ever again in her life.
ThickAsThieves: couldnt
think of anything i actually wanted
to know from him
ThickAsThieves: i did ask "Would you agree
that money laundering is now impossible
to stop due
to inter-cryptocurrency exchanges and a global market outside of
the US?"
ThickAsThieves: "you are doing
that
too much.
try again in 8 minutes."
pLambert: more
that
the computer is
there for show
mircea_popescu: pLambert so your
theory is basically scamcomputerdesk ?
pLambert: see, he never actually uses
the computer, he has another desk
to his right
mircea_popescu: and meanwhile
the ny bureaucracy is stuck nosedripping past
the screen
mircea_popescu: here i am harranguing you people about letters
too smal
mircea_popescu: i don't get
these people with
the
top of monitor alligned
to nostril arrangements.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves it's a power
tie. it's what real high power business execs do.
nubbins`: his back must hurt all
the
time
nubbins`: confirmed, his knees don't go under
that keyboard
tray
mircea_popescu: desk
too low,
that
thing actually looks like he's moved into his master's house as a junior slavegirl and
they didn't have a spare room so he got
the closet.
nubbins`: need
to do some more reading but IIRC macports lets you specify one of many versions of gcc
nubbins`: lots of compile errors. i
think i'm gonna
try
to install it via macports
nubbins`: ran into
the same issues as before, likely related
to apple's bundling
their own fork of LLVM
nubbins`: altho
TBF if you can't figure out how
to use jam, instructions are going
to be of minimal help
nubbins`: i suppose
that's a form of instruction
nubbins`: your post mentioned something about
the source including instructions for building
the client
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: not
too crucial, but i don't
think
the new src actually does come with instructions

ozbot: Doug Kass Doubles Down on
Tesla Short - MoneyBeat - WSJ
TwinWinNerD: If
the bank actually sends out
the SEPA it is
there within hours. But banking...
AndrewWhatsUpppp: especially if your whole country has adopted
the IBAN standard
