mircea_popescu: and didn't
the hack force
the guy
to wipe
the equity of his investors, as he had no other resources ?
knotwork: its still an anonymous-owner exchange I
think?
Apocalyptic: it still exists and people
think it's legit
knotwork: It seems
to be more picky about what altcoins
to list
than any others I came across, and I have been into merged mining since it was invented so wanted someplace
that had at least some of
the merged mined coins
mircea_popescu: this is like ghostships on
the sea of forgotten memories
knotwork: which seems
to be working so far, my highball sells are still being gobbled higher and higher
knotwork: Vircurex listed DOGE so I made a choice between abandoning Vircurex and
taking a flutter of
trying my devcoin strategy on DOGE
mod6: haha, drop
that baby on its head.
mircea_popescu: yep. mpex supports dogecoin by helping all
the dogecoin owners stay out of
trouble.
knotwork: jcpham you stored your "wallet" only on
third party storage not on your own disk?
Namworld: That's poor website security.
They could have hosted it on any platform, even
the most secure, it doesn't fix incompetence.
Namworld: doesn't matter if you can fetch records without even hacking, just by going
to an url
jcpham: well if i had 75k ripples
the last
time i logged in and now
the account is gone
jcpham: i keep reading about on
the interwebs
jcpham: who
the fuck is
this billionaire romanaian
jcpham: i didn't
type it wrong
Namworld: ripples are worth a good chunk.
They were worth even a lot more earlier, like 5000 ripples for 1 BTC. Now 40k ripples for 1 BTC.
kakobrekla: i just dont want
to leave extra money
to
those fuckers
knotwork: or are you saying
they wiped your accoutns from
their ledgers?
ozbot: It’s not
the sauce, it’s
the poultry and other metamathematical considerations pe
Trilema - Un b
kakobrekla: i just found out i have btc change
there and want
to get it out
Namworld: For like
two months where
they made 10-20k BTC profits I
think
knotwork: actually I sold
the first 20000 or so
they gave me for bitcoins, at way better price I
think
that I have seen since
Namworld: You could have accrued dividends on SD in
the range of up
to ~0.0002 per month per share at it's highest I
think, or close
to
that
knotwork: maybe a couple of grand USD worth or a grand or so depending on when I check
the price
knotwork: I have
the giveaway ripples
they gave out early on
that were much bigger
than later giveaways
jcpham: are
they worth something yet?
knotwork: the charts indicate nothing about dividends
though
kakobrekla: anyone has any monies on
that
thing called ripple
Namworld: At buyout, each share was bought 0.0032 I
think
Namworld: SD went from 0.0022 - 0.0027 IPO slices
to 0.007 and
then back down or something
Namworld: SD started much lower
than
that
knotwork: but maybe
the bonds behind
the options were better earnings historically?
knotwork: not impressive growth
though not a skyrocket, at least in
that period, but maybe it was more impressive in
the early days
Duffer1: i don't know how far back
the data goes
knotwork: and maybe
that would have made quite a chunk
too? Are
there historic plots/charts etc somewhere?
knotwork: If was going
to bie at all back
then I would have gone for S.MPOE itself or whatever it is called
knotwork: I wasnt about
to risk precious bitcoins on some
third party site let alone on fourth party offerigns on such a site
Namworld: Would have been enough
to make a good chunk
knotwork: Maybe less
than 100 bitcoins as it mgiht have been before I got
the bounty for helping
to create DVC
Namworld: You should have bought a
ton at IPO
knotwork: I didn't buy into Satoshi Dice since I figured it was only a matter of
time before it ran into legal problems. Didn't
think oh yeah it could get bought out by someone who has all
the right licenses and jurisdiction (did it?)
jcpham: i
think i just broke my nose
that
time
jcpham: everytime i see
the word doge i facedesk
knotwork: Nice question. Maybe it is
time for me
to start looking into actually making some use of my MPOE seat assuming such
things do not expire
thus
that I still have it.
knotwork: much profit on
tiny amount of capital :(
knotwork: I should have bought more
than just a few million DOGE
to scatter across a huge range of highball sell offers, my selsl are being eaten up like crazy
Namworld: It's nothing new, been going for a long
time
knotwork: How much (ballpark) would an option
to buy bitcoin in say six months or nine or a year for
today's price cost?
knotwork: you pay a little each
time BTC dives?
knotwork: maybe pick up and refurbish
the other couple of places I have been looking at first. Go at
them in cheapest place first sequence.
knotwork: It does sound more and more like
the place is probbly going
to remain available for quite a while yet so I guess I will check it out every month or few and see how desperate
that become
to get rid of it
the20year1: BTC>USD , get a cashout refi ,
then put
that back into bitcoin
knotwork: and I wouldnt want a bitcoin-denominated one
that would be crazy
knotwork: because anyone who believes bitcoin is good as collateral isnt going
to want
to issue a fiat denominated loan
knotwork: but land can be appreciated in other ways
than by looking how much money it is worth
knotwork: even
though anything other
than cryptocoins would likely appreciate much slower
knotwork: I
think even when it reaches only $2000 or $2500 or so I would start wanting
to hive off 500k CAD or so worth into something other
than cryptocoins
knotwork: maybe it will afterall still be available in november when bitcoin is $10,000 (i guess I was wrong about how long people
think
that might
take
to reach) and it will be cheaper
then
too as
their desperation increases
knotwork: offer
to
take it off his hands for a nominal dollar
to save him
the cost of demolition
knotwork: Or figure out
the cost of just
the land, subtract
the cost of removing
the buildings etc etc and make crazy lowball offer
to see how eager
the seller is
to sell
KRS1: i'm sorry i gotta step away for
this
Namworld: If
that happen I can rebuild it mad an indestructible unobtainium shielding.
KRS1: ah shit i didnt
think of
that =/
knotwork: Well first I will just get my 400 amps into my country-house I might feel a lot less stir-crazy cabin-fever starved for outlets
to plug machines into
then
KRS1: Namworld you could have
tons of fun with
that..it would never get old.
Namworld: With giant laser cannon directed at
the "ants" (people) on earth? So you can direct
them around or randomly blast
them?
KRS1: make sure
to have a greenhouse and recycle your water
KRS1: find a way
to live in orbit
Namworld: Now people need
to drug you/knowck you out
to get
the private key.
Namworld: You could
tattoo
the private key on
the underneath of your eyelid. Pull and read in a mirror.
KRS1: Just buy a ship. Done. imo choose
the caterpillar diesel engines option..well worth it.
knotwork: See
this place is a great resource for discovering whether one is oneself a great(er) fool.
knotwork: Maybe right in a city next
to a police station could be more secure
than out in
the middle of no-where with gosh knows how long an RCMP response-time
Diablo-D3: the only machine
that can be on you at all
times is a cell phone. cell phones are not secure.
Diablo-D3: unless
the machine is on you at all
times and already secure,
there is no such
thing as a secure private key
knotwork: I coudl maybe put
the keys in a machine in a vault or something
Diablo-D3: if you're not aware of how datacenter security works, go research
that
Diablo-D3: it'd require no more physical security
than an actual datacenter.
knotwork: though I could lock
them out of
the actual datacentre part maybe
knotwork: one problem really with
the military base idea is it would need a guard or groundskeeper etc
Diablo-D3: if
the NSA is going
to spy on me or my customers
mircea_popescu: you know sooner or later you will have
to
take employees.
Diablo-D3: the farther you go down
the chain,
the more you get fucked with
