mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves well no,

the hindsight expertise is dumb.

ThickAsThieves: [10:40] <mircea_popescu>

the point <<< so

the case for everything
jurov: lol

the cigar on you?
ThickAsThieves: "Make a road bump with a broken palm
tree
to stop
the buses going into Cairo, and drench
the road around it with gas and diesel. When
the bus slows down for
the bump, set it all ablaze so it will burn down with all
the passengers inside … God bless."
ThickAsThieves: Please note
that
this week
the
ticker symbol for ASICM (on Havelock) will be changed
to AM100.
This will not affect anything about
the asset other
than
the
ticker symbol.
Thanks!
deadweasel: mircea_popescu, i knew it was bad when Clinton
talked about Glass-Steagall act....
then it just got worse with
the mis-reporting of unemployment and every other official number..
mircea_popescu: by
then it was probably an inside joke among us side accountants and whatnot i imagine
mircea_popescu: deadweasel i wasn't really watching in '95, but it started
to smell
to me sometime in early 2000s
pankkake: I just watch

deadweasel: nice article, mp.
the USG accountants have invented a myriad of
tricks
to mis-report inflation.
The misreporting ("adjusting
the figures"), I first became aware of in 95, and it's only gotten worse since
then.

ThickAsThieves: [07:22] <CryptoCyprus> Hi everyone, I am in
the process of launching a Bitcoin startup here in Cyprus,
that will allow for mass adoption. I am currently investigating
the various routes
to funding
the start up. Its going
to require around €1.5m dependant upon
the clarification provided by
the Central Bank on regulations we must adhere
too. Would €1.5m be achievable
through

San1ty_: Maybe he
tried
to pull a scam but decided against it because it seems some people realized I made a payment earlier.
San1ty_: If I look at his dividend address
there seems
to be only one payment by me.
San1ty_: he just sent me a statement but did CC me, so he might be lying. I sent an entire
transcript of our conversation
to friedcat.
ThickAsThieves: and why you ask people
to copy you on
the xfer request
San1ty_: don't know if he pm'd friedcat with my
transfer request or not
San1ty_: well I bought some shares from a guy, but he's
trying
to sell
the same shares multiple
times it seems.
ThickAsThieves: if you know

the list anyway
San1ty_: ah is

Skitchen: ASICM - any new news from
the cat of fried?
Skitchen: surely no one is
that... uneducated... about what
they're spending money on
cosmo: ertyctnseldom,
that was a good read, refreshing
cosmo: yeah, and work sucks, especially when 80% of what's out
there is retail, so i want my money
to work for me.
benkay: and
the food
to survive on
benkay: and
the guns
to hold it
cosmo: it'd be nice
to have a house
to read books in :p
benkay: read books while
the world burns?
benkay: are your litecoin winnings enough
to guarantee security
through
the great disjointing?
Skitchen: what do you mean going
to? it is slowly deteriorating.
benkay: how do you plan
to cope?
cosmo: well, personally i believe
the world we're in right now is only going
to slowly deteriorate
benkay: you are getting paid
to learn
benkay: find a role where your skills will appreciate in value faster
than your salary will appreciate
cosmo: benkay, no, but you have
to pay
to eat,
to have electricity, sometimes
to
travel, etc etc.
benkay: that's just
the dominant american paradigm.
cosmo: useful if you put it
to use
benkay: you don't have
to pay
to learn, cosmo.
cosmo: usually
the opposite :c
cosmo: jurov,
the best ways of doing
that
tend
to not get you money..
cosmo: that's what i was
thinking
cosmo: would like
to work 9-5 as little as possible :P
cosmo: nope, i'm some kid. which is why i want
to invest, while i'm young.
matthew_boyd: If
the answer
to
that question is yes, I am Matthew and I am pleased
to meet you.
cosmo: jurov,
tie
that in with money and you'll get people interested :p
Skitchen: I could be wrong but I
think
the winged cow market is skyrocketing atm
jurov: cosmo, if you like crypto,
try figuring out how
to kick start mass pgp usage instead
cosmo: i understand what you mean matthew_boyd, but what i'm
thinking is
that bitcoin is open source, and still kind of beta, i'm not entirely convinced it won't be dominated by a superior version
matthew_boyd: Yea, I have it in my head, finding it hard
to get it on paper
matthew_boyd: This is my reasoning: Some Bitcoin is a limited number,
therefore making
them rare. Rare
things usually gain value over
time, right? So
that is a small number / limited number. So are shares, so if you have say ASIC shares,
that you bought with Bitcoins, you are multipling a limited number by a limited number, which makes a smaller number (percentage wise) if you get my drift
cosmo: probably
the same reasons why one should hold bitcoins regardless but sure, i'll learn something
matthew_boyd: cosmo, can I
tell you why I
think you should invest with Bitcoins in bitcoin companies?
ertyctnseldom: and sadly, most bitcoin stocks are only related
to mining
matthew_boyd: Erm, cosmo,
the only
thing
that is coming
to mind right now is just-dice,
that would seem
to be up your street?
cosmo: well damn...
that's what i'm looking for.
ertyctnseldom: i'm not aware of any business related
to bitcoin, which could be invested into easily
cosmo: but as
there's still a huuuuuge amount of room for crypto's
to grow in.. i'd like
to find a promising startup company
to gamble some fiat in
mircea_popescu: your odds of investing in a start-up are nil, start-ups
take investment from people
they know.
cosmo: the way i see it, holding bitcoin is investment enough... using it
to buy stocks is, eh.. "rickety"
matthew_boyd: Wait, let's get
this straight, you have Bitcoins, right?
cosmo: lol,
thanks for
the reassurance matthew_boyd :p
cosmo: which is why i want
to invest in a group of people who utilize cryptocurrency, like bitpay.
cosmo: i understand how crypto's work and strongly believe
they'll have a huge impact on our future (who doesn't?) but with it being open source it's anyones guess as
to what system is most optimal
