Rulother: I find it must easier
to deal with, if I just dont go
to BFL's website lol
Vbs: BFL is still shipping "Day 1" orders of
those
Rulother: Everyday I see
the investment in
those damn
things dwindle more and more
Vbs: I really like
the "soon" part
Vbs: "Our hashrate after
the BFL units are delivered (soon): 573 gh/s"
Vbs: "Our hashrate at
the end of
the week: 153 gh/s"
Vbs: where did I heard
that before... xD
mjr_: i
told him "drop
the
The, it's cleaner"
mjr_: so I was
talking
to a guy who is starting a site called "TheBitPages.com"
mjr_: or it could just be a fun place for small
timers
to
talk about nonsense, who knows
mjr_: google "chrome" a browser with no browser chrome, google "pixel" a high def display where you can't see
the pixels, etc
Vbs: grass is greener
there?
mjr_: got my first visitor
to #smalltimer-nonsense
mircea_popescu: i wasn't understanding wtf got into
the matthew_boyd kid
mjr_: insider
trading \()/
Vbs: mircea_popescu: I
thought ideas were overrated! xD
mjr_: we will be discussing
the best investment strategy for your .2 bitcoins
mjr_: feel free
to join me in #smalltimer-nonsense if you like anyone
mjr_: ooh, has anyone claimed
that chan?
mircea_popescu: when
the fuck did
this
turn into #smalltimer-nonsense anyway
matthew_boyd: are you going
to continue
to pump, if so I will stick 1 btc in
there
ChaangNoi: we had
to clear
that .62 wall,and we did
that
mjr_: is
the next step a dump?
ChaangNoi: i made it public what i was going
to pump next, posted in
this chan
matthew_boyd: Dammit ChaangNoi :( Please
tell me
the next
time you intend
to do something like
this, I want
to make millions \o/ Also, have you
thought about BitVPS, I have like 39 shares in
there and wouldn't mind
to profit off of it! :P
ChaangNoi: yeah,
this will have been a fun project, i also bought higher
than .11 but still
Rulother: I see it getting
to .8 and staling for a bit
matthew_boyd: Damn, you could all ways drop
the amount and
then I could buy ;)
Rulother: I moved my basic and am shares
to cog
ChaangNoi: so you will have
to look into it yourself lol
ChaangNoi: i dont know, i was saying yes when it was under .3 now i would have
to do
the maths again. im a large holder and going
to do a pump
that might not work
mjr_: guess i'll randomly
try some rooms (#futures, #options, #trading)
mjr_: you
told me about oil
daybyter: are
there any forex channels, or so...
mjr_: oh, you used
to
trade other stuff right?
mjr_: ChaangNoi: you know any channels for
trading
talk?
ChaangNoi: okay
the cog pump is now in full swing
gribble: mircea_popescu was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 26 minutes and 27 seconds ago: <mircea_popescu> make sure
the other side is in
the same situation and
then yeah, pretty much
mjr_: anyway, its just an idea, and we'll prove it out in practice not
theory
mjr_: yes, and
that is what is great about
that
mircea_popescu: make sure
the other side is in
the same situation and
then yeah, pretty much
mircea_popescu: this is why mpex positions are fully collateralised, once you've opened it you know you can rely on it for a fixed
term no matter what.
mjr_: when
the bitcoins are in play
mjr_: well, we are almost at
the point where we actively
try it out,
that is when
the rubber hits
the road
mjr_: i'm long a future here, short a future
there
mjr_: but,
technically speaking, if i have
the synthetic future on mpex, and
the opposite side of a future contract somewhere else
mjr_: no doubt,
that is why i want
to do all
the math myself, which means learning a bit of calculus, and pulling out
the old graphing calculator lol
mjr_: oh, i remember
that
mircea_popescu: what i'm saying is
that quants regularly fuck up
the math
ozbot: Why MPEx is better
than fiat institutions, part 349085 : we don’t use Excel. pe
Trilema - Un blog
mircea_popescu: yeah, well, possible it may well be but
this is where banks are broken.
mjr_: so, unfortunately, my ability
to show
the maths is not yet caught up with my instinct
that
this is possible
mjr_: there is some basis risk with
this strategy, but i plan on managing
that
mjr_: basically, a "synthetic future" would be buy a call/put, sell
the other
type
ChaangNoi: nvm, i
thought you were doing something else, my fault :/
ChaangNoi: oh, you are doing
this on mpex :/ never mind lol
mjr_: if i hold
them
to expiration
mjr_: now,
the calls i have just created
ChaangNoi: okay, but what MP and i really care about is your options
thing, how is
that going?
mjr_: the one question i have is in regards
to a "SPLIT"
mjr_: ChaangNoi: you were asking about sdice, i am not really into equitites at
the moment
ChaangNoi: what?
that is not options,
that is just selling coins
mjr_: eh, still working on a few
things
ChaangNoi: glad
to see more players in
that market
mjr_: i'm building my options writing strategy, no
time for equities right now
mjr_: maybe if you
take into account wire
transfer fee...not sure, but it was pretty close
mjr_: gox was around $98.50 at
the
time
mjr_: i actually
think he may have gotten a better price
than he could have gotten from gox
mjr_: i
think over
the last 30 days, we have done $30,000+ in volume, which is not much for an exchange, but for a local meetup, I
think it is growing quickly
mjr_: we always meet
to
trade in union square, nyc
mjr_: we were all
there in person
mjr_: related, but not exactly
the same
Scrat: is
this related with your website? buttonwood something
mjr_: one guy walked up wanting
to buy 100 coins, and we filled his order at around 100
Apocalyptic: " // read after a day i realize
there is no way i'm giving 1300 btcs from my pocket, so you were right
Apocalyptic: "I've
taken
the day away from
the computer
to
think about
this, and you're right.
TradeFortress: Apocalyptic, after
thinking about it more, I don't
think it's exactly scamming. it's like
the gox rollback
Apocalyptic: TradeFortress, "To rollback it now after making
that promise would be scamming, regardless of who's fault it was", did he just do
that ?
ThickAsThieves: this all presumes
that
the error is real and not a money grab
ThickAsThieves: and hurt everyone else by whatever portion of
those divested profits
ThickAsThieves: other
than
that it would also benefit anyone who already divested
