VanCleef: i think so
AndrewJackson: Party at Bitfunder tonight?
Ukyo: sorry. tired. just poped to mind :P
mircea_popescu: i guess tha'ts true.
Ukyo: but hey.. one less exchange means the btc price to get on assbot goes down
Ukyo: it will only be havelock and mpex announcing trades in here...
Ukyo: this is kinda silly... he started prepping for shutdown weeks ago.. but still encouraged ppl to download the 'new iphone app' x.x
Ukyo: if nef at least let ppl login and let ppl transfer shit
Ukyo: i thikn a trade freeze site-wide wold have been better than .. this.
bobbabad: I guess, to be fair it might be more credibility to bitfunder that way then a bunch of random LTC-global voting with what makes sense for their personal fincacial benefit
Ukyo: btct raised from 2 or 3 btc to match mine actually
Rannasha: Do you also have a listing fee on BF? I reckon a listing fee keeps a large part of the hopeless ones away.
Ukyo: one today "I want to raise funds to buy mining equipment" .. .. "no."
gangplank: will it be easy to xfer assets over to bitfunder?
Ukyo: i avg 1~3 tickets a day asking about starting an asset
Ukyo: I got 4 new asset requests alone today
Ukyo: i doubt burnsy was wanting to shut down
bobbabad: uh.. really? i thought it was the opposite, everyones welcome
Ukyo: btct has good volume and trade fee income
Ukyo: apparently there is alot of scrutiny when applying at BF, and things dont move 'fast enough' :P
bobbabad: Ukyo, will labcoin be welcome to bf consider all the bs that has been going on with the issuer?
Ukyo: you cant cater to day traders.
Ukyo: Rannasha: then you had faith in the asset enough to pay the price
dexX7: what's your experience with such incidends? will this drive all prices down, e.g. am?
Ukyo: wonder how much of the trash will end up on HL
Rannasha: Ukyo: But what if you had a bid just below the current price for an asset that doesn't seem to have an easy way out when the exchange closes.
bobbabad: mircea_popescu the all mighty captain hindsight
bobbabad: Ukyo, I guess maybe now would be a good time to up the trade fee ;)
Ukyo: if movements stop, its bad news in too amny ways
Ukyo: i coudl care less which way things move, as long as they keep moving
Rannasha: I guess the reason to clear the books was for the people who had open bids. I reckon you wouldn't want to be stuck getting dumped on when the panic sale starts.
bobbabad: I would imagine the opposite should be happening
mircea_popescu: anyway, let's hope people generally are learning lessons and intend to listen better.
Ukyo: ppl are dumping on bf tho
bobbabad: people are panic dumping though so strategy did not work :P
Ukyo: bobbabad: true
Ukyo: then agian, its not the first time recently LC has been interfeared with :P
bobbabad: I guess he thought that it would be better then making the announcement and have people panic dump
Ukyo: thats a good way to hurt the price of an asset
Ukyo: still dont understand of resetting the books
Ukyo: mircea_popescu: depending on the circumstances
dexX7: so i guess you need some additional servers for the load, ukyo ;)
mircea_popescu: i usually tend to like giving a month, but two weeks is certainly not brusque or sudden.
Ukyo: the two week notice is somewhat odd dont you think?
mircea_popescu: o hey. so i guess that bet is yes huh
Ukyo: this is something that was obviously planned
mircea_popescu: so did they have a breach or what.
bobbabad: makes perfect sense, burnside clearly got layer fees to pay
gangplank: add to the confusion
Ukyo: makes _no_ sense to clear the books
gangplank: "Effective immediately, in conjunction with this release, trading will be halted, all order books cleared, and trading re-enabled."
Ukyo: "Effective immediately, in conjunction with this release, trading will be halted, all order books cleared, and trading re-enabled."
gangplank: yes but then reenabled after announce
Ukyo: it says all trade halted on the announce?
Ukyo: why trade reenabled?
gangplank: locked, book wiped, trades reenabled
Ukyo: how are there trades?
bobbabad: Ukyo, is bitfunder in good shape, any crazyiness going on there?
gangplank: so what happens to my stocks
bobbabad: I guess there ended up being blood after all....
bobbabad: what will happen when trading resumes on btct

mod6: this is for the gzip
thestringpuller: this is fo the gz
mircea_popescu: jurov now that's an idea.
thestringpuller: since you know, reading a book is too hard for them.
jurov: yeah, maybe not here..but starting "declawing cats for btc" thread on the forums may be worthwhile
mircea_popescu: the reason this sort of shit is on cracked is that the cool guys no longer give a shit.
jurov: should throw some of the other topics in here someday :)
ozbot: 6 Innocent-Sounding Topics That Are Guaranteed Flame Wars | Cracked.com
kakobrekla: the cherry truck was decently long
mircea_popescu: either they grow up or move on to greener pastures with more sex and less internet.
mircea_popescu: no because a good flamewar outlasts the participants.
jurov: does anyone keep statistics to find biggest/longest flamewar ever? granted, it's difficult to measure
mircea_popescu: in the sense people will still discuss it long after we bite it.
mircea_popescu: that thing still going ?!
Duffer1: gg they're still flogging that horse?
mircea_popescu: o the forum thing
kakobrekla: lol garr scammer left me a feedback > A person who believes SLANDER is acceptable. Should be removed from these forums.
mircea_popescu: is this diplomat's dice ?
Duffer1: bitbet on how long it takes paypal to gtfo?
mircea_popescu: "Mentula cum doleat imperio, tibi, lector, culus. Non sum diuinus, sed scio quid facias."
mircea_popescu: sooo... after many years finally a new tagline is added to the rotation of trilema taglines. it reads :
stasiomod: who wants to play prop hunt on gmod
mircea_popescu: "I do not want to take Telesina as a wife" "Why not?" "She is an adulteress." "But she mostly does it with boys" "A, in that case I will."
stasiomod: me? i went to google
thestringpuller: ^ question of the day.
thestringpuller: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=238628.0 - i remember seeing this
thestringpuller: http://bitcoinisland.org/ - this thing
mircea_popescu: that boat thing ?
thestringpuller: whatever happened to bitcoin island
stasiomod: that cant be true
mircea_popescu: you ever read the logs ?
mircea_popescu: from a preface on martial. in yo face, thestringpuller
mircea_popescu: "The epigrams are basically social commentary of the type that one might expect today from someone like the comedian Chris Rock, and you could also compare Martial's prominence in late first century Roman society with that of Chris Rock in current American society. But Chris Rock would never dare to tell these jokes!"
mircea_popescu: it will be going away later this month btw.
jurov: lol the good kind of error..already forgot it's still there
mircea_popescu: working at getting rid of the remaining issues.
mircea_popescu: hence mpex lag rather than randomwebroutelag.
mircea_popescu: (it measures how long it takes stuff to make it through the edge proxies to trade engine and back, not how long it takes you to connect to edge proxies)
