mircea_popescu: bitesak_ well to a degree their market is a commodified or at least commodifiable one, so price competition will be a part.
mircea_popescu: taub a ok. yeah, it's all a quest to respect your market basically.
taub: then they can start charging (hopefully modest) rates
taub: they establish themselves as big players by letting trading happen for free
taub: oh jackig up, yea but i mean compared to it being at zero right now
mircea_popescu: taub this jacking up is what ebay did for instance
taub: because they have 0% fees right now
taub: volume wise they overtook mtgox
taub: once you're relevant you can jack up the fees becuse people will pay for liquidity
taub: first you have to become relevant = liquidity
taub: they understand a thing or two about marketing their exchange
taub: look at those btcn numbers
mircea_popescu: mike_c i guess you were right, whoever got those options made out ok.
mircea_popescu: jurov the start-up times are a legitimate problem tho, and so was the fact it took two weeks to sync a year ago.
mircea_popescu: more importantly, if you also put gpg on the system you can then go gpg --encrypt --armor -r yourkey and put the result in an email to yourself
mircea_popescu: b0n1 : you can have local backups in the shape of 2 or 6 or w/e drives.
ozbot: BitBet - Bitcoin price to rise above 750 USD
taub: make the big swing
taub: especially since i failed to like
taub: i'm quite unslettled by this rise

jurov: no, that won't protect from session hijacking or xss(although i hope there's no xss)
bitesak: despite the hassle, maybe a 2fa to login from the start would still allow for convenience in placing and cancelling
jurov: um, that's true. should add 2fa to orders.
bitesak: more speficially, how to steal from a protected (as in 2fa bitcoin signature for withdrawals) account
bitesak: and how relevant the current 2fa system is
jurov: ah, you have in mind how to *steal* from some other unprotected account?
bitesak: not if there is the 2fa enabled requiring signuature to withdraw coins
ThickAsThieves: [02:20] <Diablo-D3> is friedcat no longer processing direct share trades or what? <<<< one or two times per week
jurov: it can be done with one account altogether, too
bitesak: jurov: are there planned updates to coinbr ? I finally got round to adding the 2fa for withdrawal, but it seems that if I had access to someone elses coinbr acct I could rather easily/quickly buy some in the money options, and sell them at a slight discount to my main coinbr acct and exercise them. Is this correct?
jurov: unencrypted wallets fiasco is bound to repeat itself
jurov: well, with clowns like luke-jr focus on startup times instead of something useful for airgapped machines/cold storage
bitesak: right, like inputs.io "Cold storage system protects coins against server compromise" and 4'100 gone through email reset is as if we were 2 years ago
BingoBoingo: Well, might make sense. Seeing how web wallets are having a rough time of late.
bitesak: that and maybe a sizeable amount of bitcoins have left the exchanges in fear of losing access to them. that's what I did a year ago at least
BingoBoingo: bitesak: Indeed. Too many mother fucking gem chasers.
bitesak: BingoBoingo: the current order book is rather thin to 1'000

bitesak: and testing the keys with small amounts is probably a good idea first
bitesak: there is that site where you can download the page and run it on an offline computer but I am in no position to suggest that is a wise method
b0n1: yeah I am asking for a good source to exactly that
jurov: so get the parallel dotmatrix printer and print them
b0n1: but i only found sources that print you the private key online (wtf?)
b0n1: i think the paperwallet is a nice idea
b0n1: BingoBoingo, but its too dangerous without a backup that the drive breaks sometimes
BingoBoingo: b0n1: Get an old computer... Something with an intel 386 or motorola 68030... NEver connect it to the internet and force bitcoind to compile on it...
b0n1: is there a good source to read the necessary steps about doing that?
b0n1: yeah thats actually what i had in mind
b0n1: if the drive breaks its gone...
bitesak: do it a on a computer that has never been connected to the internet
b0n1: meaning to extract the private key in a way it cant be stolen directly
b0n1: is there a good and trustworthy source of creating a safe cold wallet
BingoBoingo: bitesak: Might be several. mircea_popescu is going to be pissed if this shit goes to 1000 while he's sleeping...
Diablo-D3: batten down the hatches
bitesak: seems it going to be a volatile month_

Diablo-D3: is friedcat no longer processing direct share trades or what?
BingoBoingo: That's a rare sight at the moment
dub: quite close to shoegoo though
mircea_popescu: then again it's about two degrees of magnitude heavier or some shit
mike_c: wow, mpoe only has two gaps all year (the outages). other than that, traded every day.
mike_c: yeah, looking at numbers it's not unusual. there have been a bunch of times this year that bbet went 3 or more days without trading.
mircea_popescu: mpex investors are traditionally the buy and hold sort.
mike_c: 0 volume on s.mg, s.nsa, s.bbet since sunday. bubble scaring investors maybe, turning them into hoarders..
kakobrekla: maybe he held the coins in inputs.io
mircea_popescu: yeah looks like the guy had some sort of personal problems or w/e
mike_c: let me spoon feed it to you :D "John K logged on, replied, and released the escrow funds today."
dexX7: ah, thanks for the link
dexX7: did johnk come back by the way?

chaang-noi: the goat is making sure everyone waking up is in the loop...
Apocalyptic: the goat is out of the loop
BingoBoingo: chaang-noi: Old news, happened hours ago. Barely a memory in bitcoin time
chaang-noi: for people who dont know, tradefortress was "hacked" and lost over 4000 coins
BingoBoingo: 3. Two people from that night haven't spoken to the others in years while the other two still drink together most every weekend.
BingoBoingo: In college late in the academic year the roommates and the self were having a discussion on the ethics of torture so we all took turns getting waterboarded. Some observations 1. It terrifies the most when the cloth is soaked. 2. It isn't very pleasant
nubbins`: well, it doesn't necessarily need to be people
mircea_popescu: sure, one day they too may be people. that day hasn't so far come.
mircea_popescu: just making the point that in the same way people might not want to call idiots "people"/
nubbins`: what do i care what they're called?
nubbins`: the same implication is there, but i don't have to use a miscarriage of a clumsy forced portmanteau to do it
nubbins`: it's condescending in the manner of a teenaged boy who thinks he's figured everything out
nubbins`: it's a cliched, trite, dull word that smacks of unsophistication
nubbins`: no, it makes me feel embarassed for the person using it
nubbins`: i fucking hate the word sheeple
mircea_popescu: KRS- yeah. sucks when whatever you trust betrays that trust.
mircea_popescu: quoted mostly for the "“I’m an educated, very well plugged-in person" girl sez.
