jborkl: They said they will have a datacenter in Dallas, TX
mircea_popescu: well that's good, cause I can make a bet,.
pankkake: because the pico guy said "maybe or maybe not"
dexX7: well. i'm still not 100 % convinced. tytus is the one who created the listing, that's no new info, so i'm not surprised that he confirms the listing.
pankkake: so do they really plan to mine too?
jborkl: They say, shipping is December - Remember I am not promoting or pumping anything- just telling you what I went by and saw
jborkl: The listing at Pico is Cointerra, I can tell you that
mircea_popescu: tapeout 28nm... so what's this, march ?
pankkake: communication is terrible though
dexX7: wait, the listing there is legit?
jborkl: What they said made sense, for the US- Pico is a holding co and buys a block from them. You actually buy Pico holding and not Cointerra
mircea_popescu: what'd they say ?
jborkl: I asked them why they listed with Pico and not MPEX
jborkl: yes and I have access to preferred pricing for interested parties
mircea_popescu: anyway, article incoming i trust ?
jborkl: There was 3 of them, I got to see renderings that are not published yet- talked for about 1.5 hours- I also told them the advantages of listing on MPEX
jborkl: I stopped by and talked to Cointerra in person
b0n1: you mean the liquidity problem?

ozbot: Least likely to succeed character : The upseller pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.

b0n1: is there any back and lay betting exchange for btc?
mircea_popescu: i think that horse was underage anyway.
mircea_popescu: resulting in all of fox news being put on the sex offender register

ThickAsThieves: and now that guy is out there
ThickAsThieves: and that he wasnt paranoid enough at the start
ThickAsThieves: and realized quickly he was too deep
ThickAsThieves: maybe Ross is the original guy
ThickAsThieves: i find that not believable
pankkake: the issue is that he wasn't nerd enough. he made technical mistakes, and then wasn't paranoid enough, thought he has the street smarts or whatever
ThickAsThieves: isnt the story that there is an original and a 2nd owner?
benkay_: then btctalk can add drug dealer to the list of epithets they spit
ThickAsThieves: probably just a whim, coder says oh i can make a thing!
mircea_popescu: it's so stupid this shit. im torn as towhether to do a write-up of why it's stupid and in the process prove i understand the drug trade all too well or just stfu.
mircea_popescu: why did he get involved is what i want to know.
benkay_: it's not unbelievable that the nerd running the SR show would know nothing about actually moving product
mircea_popescu: my bet is that as the feds get enough of being humiliated it quietly drops into oblivion.
pankkake: a drug dealer is usually more honest than a car salesman though
ThickAsThieves: there will def be more to thi story
mircea_popescu: likely for a better cut, too.
pankkake: why would the megaboss of the internet mafia do that?
pankkake: indeed that thing is weird
mircea_popescu: this is the definition of small timer.
mircea_popescu: he struggled for three weeks to move a kg of coke.
mircea_popescu: he didnt have that much money.
ThickAsThieves: you leave the US too
ThickAsThieves: if you have that much money
pankkake: when I'm a trillionnaire I'll still live in a small appartment, but with people? no way!
pankkake: yes, that is weird indeed
mircea_popescu: lewicki yes, yes they are.
ThickAsThieves: an apartment tho?
pankkake: not everyone needs to live in a mansion with two pools
lewicki: Even if the FBI only found out where the coins were stored. Eventually those coins would have to be used somewhere that could be "backtraced". Those mixers are not infallible
pankkake: and they asked the vpn
pankkake: he used a vpn to connect to the server
pankkake: and why would criminals crime if they thought they couldn't get away with it?

mircea_popescu: he didn't plan on tor being a surveillance tool.
ThickAsThieves: i just find it hard to believe that DPR would be this sloppy
mircea_popescu: they can't prosecute you for something they already convicted someone else for.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves here's a simple plan : pay someone a little coin to be the fall guy.
lewicki: If the FBI confiscated all copies of the private key, then maybe.
ThickAsThieves: i'm still hoping that Ross isnt even the guy'
benkay_: mircea_popescu: you refer to the debt ceiling?
mircea_popescu: at which point, watch the bitcoin foundation go in overdrive.
mircea_popescu: m,aybne two

ThickAsThieves: the article also notes how since the fbi has his wallet, the coins cant be spent
mircea_popescu: so they're trying :D
mircea_popescu: jurov the point about how im lolling at them for not making any forfeitures this turn around burned.
ThickAsThieves: isnt that amount extrapolated from their guess of commissions on their guess of all sales to date?
ozbot: FBI struggles to seize 600,000 Bitcoins from alleged Silk Road founder | Technology | theguardian.c
