mircea_popescu: holding the btc or throwing them around in weird loan schemes etc does not.
mircea_popescu: Bowjob i think the argument is misplaced. unless you actually NEED the btc, having the shares produces future revenue. even one satoshi is revenue
mircea_popescu: which means it'll wait till options expire.
mircea_popescu: well... atm im trying to discern what tyhe fuck to do here, because price went up so much. i am guessing i'll do 15-150 by steps of 3
mircea_popescu: it was 1-35 last month, it was 1-20 before that
pizzaman1337: mircea_popescu: will the mpex bot start doing some market making on options above 750 at some point?
Bowjob: its the dude I told about BTC when it was 17, never bought any even though he expressed interest in buying some
error4733: i'm still in green but is earasing the btc rally :(
Bowjob: with the same intensity or even better
pigeons: who is a bigger sucker, the person still getting better than fiat dividends from her 0.0075 S.DICE shares, or the sucker playing a negative EV strategy?
Bowjob: the 0.75 came with the expectation that the whale would continue playing
error4733: true, they bought s.dice overpriced at 0.0075 :D
pigeons: error4733: that's good
pigeons: ok, i bet you are wrong and right a few times before its over
pizzaman1337: I want to keep being wrong
pizzaman1337: ok, I'd like to be wrong
pizzaman1337: pigeons: I'd like to hope with them as I'm a shareholder (just hold a little)
pigeons: pizzaman1337: people keep saying that and keep being wrong, but maybe
pizzaman1337: I think it's only a matter of time before the BTC price affects S.DICE bet volume
Bowjob: he said thers 2-3 private investors
pizzaman1337: pigeons: a month where S.DICE was lower and might have a grim-looking future compared to what it seemed it would be
pizzaman1337: of course he was, he probably foresaw this
Bowjob: erik was smart to sell those shares
Bowjob: for this month. dice is up about 3k
mircea_popescu: iirc this month div is going to be low, a few hundred or something
BitHub: they're divs are shit house too
Bowjob: i got out at 0.75 and 0.62, lets see where this goes
BitHub: sdice will myspace it up by end of the year
Bowjob: until dice goes back to 0.75
BitHub: its been going shit the last 2 months but okey
mircea_popescu: or else the concerns are legitimate and sdice is going to shit.
mircea_popescu: well... here's the thing. markets cycle. either this is nonsense and so the savvy will make a pretty penny buying it once the retail investors dumped
benkay: problem of trading stocks denominated in rapidly appreciating currency
Bowjob: but then he shorts it anyway
Bowjob: I like how ian says more people will gamble on dice the higher the price
error4733: yes, early today
Bowjob: I've seen S.Dice tanking honestly
Bowjob: 300 bucks at the end of the year
error4733: MP:not big diff b/t fickle et fucked. look at the book... just no way to sell if you want your money back.. :fu:
Bowjob: not as bad as that dude who called 23.98 the top of 2013
mircea_popescu: lol this could be a meme.
pizzaman1337: $12 diff from the 24h low and high

mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv yeah. in the uk it's more like 250 pounds iirc
tiberiusiv: who posted that
dub: you were the first person to donate in years, someone is taking that money and running
mircea_popescu: seeing how... well... there's some costs to maintain status but they're not THAT high
mircea_popescu: lmao. so wait, the few hundreds i donated were most of their fiscal income ?
mircea_popescu: Due to the massive reduction in financial support we found ourselves in a position where being an incorporated organisation cost more than what we were able to bring in in donations and after years of operating at a loss it was decided that we would apply for the dissolution of the corporation in order to drastically reduce costs.
