ThickAsThieves: when they could be holding S.MPOEs

mircea_popescu: at any rate it scales with the macroeconomical conditions and market needs like a fed note rather than with the underlying like a stock would.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves seems to work more like the reserve currency of bitcoin than any actual stock.

bitesak: in my experience it has changed. in spring time, it was easy to buy call options at 0.05 for the current month typically from 10 to 100$, currently it flattens out at roughly 5x times that price around 0.27. it has become more cautious it seems
bitesak: what market conditions are you referring to for example?
random_cat: always good to leverage your pain :D
random_cat: oh... well.. cheaper than outright, then
mircea_popescu: yeah, top of the market too

Guest53198: I have an unconfirmed bet , and I'm still waiting the refund
benkay: you have jokes about milk on the faq
benkay: but very definitely in the realm of "taking this drug may alleviate your psychosomatic symptoms by way of killing you" read extremely quickly and printed very small on 640x480 screens
kakobrekla: go and request a deposit address for a bet and read around the address you are give in the last step
benkay: kakobrekla: please point to where on faq or proposition page 1 confirmation is referred to.
mircea_popescu: anyway. don't break anything darlings, remember, we want to fuck this babe for many years to come rather than bukakke her to death today.

kakobrekla: umm if this is bout bbet, it says it will show up after 1 confirm when you request the deposit address
mircea_popescu: and perhaps the faq would benefit from a clarifying statement about when transactions are recognized as having bet. << afaik one confirm is good enough to put you on the rooster.
mike_c: can't find ascii's hint, guess i'll have to wait for the update.

mike_c: looking forward to it.
mircea_popescu: mike_c you will probably love the product update :D
mike_c: i keep thinking.. the rng on that thing should be saleable in itself.
mircea_popescu: so cardano rng board was successfully populated, there's like oscilloscope illuminated randomness and general entropy pouring out of it. i'll be making a post with pics and whatnot once the lot of you stop hawking over the exchange.
mike_c: today was a good day to grab a bag of popcorn and watch the ticker.
mircea_popescu: considering i spent the entire day being entertained in the first place... it's not so bad.
