Neil: Feel sorry for anyone waiting for 6 confirms at
the moment.
Neil: Must be English
then.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller dude you've been hatching
this for
three days lol. relax, it's just
teh internets.
jurov: no,
tell mpoe-pr
to got into overdrive
mircea_popescu: the state collapsed,
the serbs showed up
to work as usual
mircea_popescu: take
the case of serbia, which played out, courtesy of
teh merican intervention.
Neil: Just means
that when
the SHTF, it'll be even more devastating.
Neil: Faith in
the bureaucracy is quite strong; surprisingly even amongst
those who are most skeptical about
things. Kinda sad really.
mircea_popescu: Neil purely cultural reasons. during
the azn crisis many years ago
the people were queuing
to give out
their family jools
to prop up
the governemnt.
Neil: mircea_popescu: Why do you say
that? Not saying I disagree; I suspect
they can hold on longer
than most.
jurov: as opposed
to us, where
the gold just went *poof* and can't be replaced by paper easily
Neil: Hmm, not sure about
that.
mircea_popescu: yeah, people said
the sort of crap 1-2-3 years ago, and i said 1-2-3 years ago
the us goes first.
Neil: I'm quite impressed at how long
the EU has managed
to keep
the farce going. I expected it
to collapse about 12 months ago.
mircea_popescu: Francis Place later wrote
that enjoyments for
the poor of
this
time were limited:
they had often had only
two, "sexual intercourse and drinking", and
that "drunkenness is by far
the most desired" as it was cheaper and its effects more enduring.
Neil: Feels like
the miners have given up.
gribble: Next difficulty estimate | 18937543.7152 based on data since last change | 20055302.1316 based on data for last
three days
Neil: mircea_popescu: Already buying your dinner I
think, what with all
the 1%s.
ThickAsThieves: ASICMINER dividend announced: 0.03628311 per whole-share! (before
TAT management fees)
Neil: Won 22 out of 23 bets on bitbet. Only 1.3 BTC
to show for it :( Lol.
ThickAsThieves: it's been pretty stable in
that range for most of
the year
Neil: You've probably been watching it longer
than me :)
ThickAsThieves: forever? I
think it consistently fluctuates from
the 60s
to
the 70s often
Neil: Curious; MPEX breaking below
the 0.72mBTC it's been at seemingly forever.
sgnb: is it related
to
the hacking?
davout: for quite a few reasons
that i won't go into right now :-)
davout: it's only a matter of
time now
Neil: I hope BTC learns from
the way
the lesser coins approach
this problem. Because one day, I
think BTC will face
the same kind of attack.
Neil: There's only so much "I wasted my whole day,
thought I'd got 4 blocks, and have nothing
to show for it"
that people can
take. All you need is gradual attrition and it's game over.
Neil: Namworld:
They can remine since whenever
they care
to (given enough
time, admittedly) -
that's a consequence of having over 50%.
They just remine from when
they last stopped mining, or from when it's enough
to cause lose of confidence (100 blocks should do).
Namworld: They can't just remine
the whole chain everytime. Albeit
the part since
their last deposit, maybe.
Neil: Nothing
to stop FTC 51%-ers dumping
their FTC on an exchange for BTC,
then after withdrawing
the BTC, remining
the whole FTC chain so
their deposit at
the exchange is invalid. How sad.
Neil: Dunno why people waste so much
time and effort on
this shit.
Neil: Funniest
thing is
that
the IxCoin dude, Nasakioto a.k.a. "oldminer", is back, hoping
to get a bid of a decent bid
to IxCoin so he can dump
the rest of his premine
that he's not dumped yet.
[\]: people used
to say
that about
the others
Chaaang-Noi: nvc or ppcoin i
think might be
the 3rd place, but really hard
to
tell
Chaaang-Noi: Altcoins will die off, I douobt any will last other
than LTC and maybe one other
Neil: Chaaang-Noi:
This FTC 51% is funny. Some dude sits
there, with > 50%, has mined like 100 blocks with
timestamps bunched around some
time in
the future. Waits for
the
time
to come,
then releases
them
to
the network, orphaning everyone else, making it look like
the network has
terahashes (coz all
the
timestamps are close) and collecting all
the money! Lots of unhappy people. I guess
this is how altcoins die.
Neil: bitcoin now has enough hashpower
to mine what were
the first 80000 blocks (21 months) in just 10 minutes
Neil: Apparently feathercoin has had 2 51% attacks
this month starting dozens of blocks deep?
jcpham: to

the rate of requests over

jcpham: of requests for
the hidden service descriptor per day (see
jcpham: and obtained

jcpham: Tor botnet,
the Silk Road hidden service, and
the DuckDuckGo hidden service. We

these for several days

KRS: this looks good jcpham
thanks for sharing i dig
this stuff
KRS: <Nerevar> It can get
to around 200 in
the next few weeks.

Neil: Chaaang-Noi:
Thx for
the free XRP;
they arrived! Sold all my XRP now apart from
the 125 you can't sell. Looks
to be drifting down ATM.
furuknap: C'mon I have a
transaction pending...
dub: jcpham: find
that e3 announcement?
furuknap: Who
the fuck pays LTC79 for 1kh/s mining?
That's like paying BTC2 for 1mh/s.
ThickAsThieves: looks like AM is switching
the rest of
their leftover hashing
to solomining atm
topace: ANNOUNCEMENT: Full API is now available for Havelock Investments - let
the bot
trading begin!
mircea_popescu: The EUR/USD/GPB balance is saved and will be rewrite
to your bitcurex.com profile.
mircea_popescu: To procede our works, we have
to ask you
to cancel your's cancel all bids and remove BTC collected in bitcurex.com profile (the balance must be 0.00000000 BTC) for about 24 hours.
dub: I guess its a good signal seeing bitco's on
that list
dub: given
the roundcube login Im going with b
mircea_popescu: b seems unlikely, seeing how bitcoin
tards
tend
to run everything off
the same box.
mircea_popescu: which makes little sense unless a.
they don't know how
to set zones or b.
they actually run a server off
the mailserver box
mircea_popescu: no, what i was saying was
that
their mail server figures in
the blockchain.info block relay list
dub: I can send mail
to you directly fine, from obama
dub: I
thought you were saying bitcurex was an open relay
dub: yeah rDNS is broken
thanks
to anti spam fucktards
dub: thats me
trying
to send you mail from obama
dub: rcpt
to: office@polimedia.us
ThickAsThieves: well i know i'd never give my address willingly
to
the bitcoin hordes
Gizmo: Yes, I was a believer until i seen a post where someone in his are asked
to visit him and he said he could n a number of weeks as he was moving
to new premises. Surely he would meet
the person
to help validate his claim of a legitimate enterprise.
mircea_popescu: Gizmo
true. on
the other hand most internet kids don't have enough edumancation
to be able
to carry a conversation outside of "that's cool" / "he's mean". so... could go either way.
Gizmo: he dosent seem
to awnser any direct questions.
ThickAsThieves: i mostly
think he intends
to run a large mining effort
