the velocity of money. Both M and V are easily computed in
the case of bitcoin
jurov: mpex monthly profit would

the bitcoin economy should get its own GDP and we can bet on
that

nubbins`: was about
to say
that's
the same problem ;p

the images
though
kakobrekla: nubbins` prolly still best coffe
table book, ever.
mike_c: 100:1 readers

herbijudlestoids: when i said "the response was underwhelming" what i meant was
that for ~200 pageviews,
there was only a couple of comments from parties and only some of
those comments were interesting
nubbins`: kakobrekla: not
to mention
that most of log isn't worth saving in
the first place ;p
dub: I used
to maintain a private wiki for
that
benkay: mp suggested blogging as a series of notes
to self, as one can't actually remember all

time.
benkay: also, herbijudlestoids
think bout blogging as a long
term
thing you do - not one-off shots
that might bring some fame
dub: thousands of years after
the great climate change cleansing a future civilisation will find it and build a religion
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: Maybe do
that with
the Federalist Papers? For
the lulz of selling fancy copies
to gringos in
the Estados Unidos from Canada.
nubbins`: bonus points if it's something
that a person might want
to purchase at some point
herbijudlestoids: benkay: hmmm is
there a page on fpcomplete.com which explains what exactly fpcomplete is? :P
pankkake: maybe but still boring… maybe let
the users "vote" on what should be
the reward
nubbins`: 'through
the looking-glass' isn't long enough, know what i mean?
nubbins`: not being religious, i can't
think of a book i care enough about
to put such an enormous amount of effort into
nubbins`: i'd like
to
take a public-domain
text and
then
typeset, silkscreen, and bind
the entire
thing by hand, but i'm having
trouble choosing a book
BingoBoingo: pankkake: For Yellencoin increase block reward as
the square of
the increase in mining difficulty?
mike_c: data is culled from monthly reports on
trilema. if you want
to verify yourself,
there are links
to all
the monthly reports on
the left rail of
the stock page
herbijudlestoids: mike_c: not a question so much as i dont know who runs/operates
the website so i dunno if i can
trust
the data...just wanted
to verify it myself
pankkake: I'll
take better ideas for YellenCoin
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: lol well its not
that nobody noticed,
the post is *still* getting hits, was referring
to a couple of
the comments left on /r/BitCoin
pankkake: kakobrekla: for now you have
to bail yourself out by printing more
mircea_popescu: did you just stick with braindamaged blogspot and
then whine
that nobody seems
to have noticed ?
mike_c: herbijudlestoids: you have a question about
the data on btcalpha?
herbijudlestoids: im not doing
this for an audience or anything, its all a matter of incidental curiosity, but i
thought your suggestion was nice :)
Duffer1: yea lol
that'd do it, even if your blog was hokus pokus magic it'd still be popular
herbijudlestoids: well, i did implement one of my simple mean reversion models for MPOE
too, maybe a "trade
this and get rich quick" blog post will be more persuasive :P
Duffer1: i don't know if
the audience for
that manner of analysis is here yet in bitcoinland, but i bet it will be sometime
herbijudlestoids: Duffer1: i am
thinking of writing a piece on
the "market implied EPS growth rate" of MPOE, but want
to verify
the data
that i can see on btcalpha
dignork: somebody wishes
to co-rent with me seedbox account? it's 14EU/mo, but I want
to pay only half of it.
Duffer1: herbijudlestoids sorry
to hear
that mate, do you plan
to keep up with
the blogging?
herbijudlestoids: if you started on
the fixed income 10y ago, much better
than 5y ago
nubbins`: whenever bill nye mentions science, he makes a gesture
that indicates he's
talking about
things
that happen outside
the building he's in
herbijudlestoids: its worse
than
that mircea_popescu because not all granpas get it equal
mircea_popescu: and
the fact
that
this will continue happening i nthe future, arbitrarily, is like... splendeed.
mircea_popescu: fuck you granpa, so you've worked for
thirty years
to make
the us work ? here's some inflation. enjoy your fixed income.
mircea_popescu: this happens, of course,
tol ALSO be exactly how "normal" fiat currencies like
the dollar operate.
mircea_popescu: pankkake it's fascinating how
they completely gloss over
the part where one group (the scammers behind it) stole
the resources of
the rest of
the people involved (every idiot
that bought some, mined some, or pumped it up until
two days ago)
☟︎ pankkake: "Money, like every commodity, works best when
the supply can adjust efficiently
to
the demand."
that is EXACTLY bernankoin
mircea_popescu: "
That's a lot
to pay for a single Bitcoin for someone just entering
the market. "

them up in facebook polo shirts.
