Chaang-Noi: if i send you a gold bar and
tell you it is insured and you pay a fee for
that, but it is not insured
then its a scam
eeeCurrencyDotCo: Mircea, its' peter from eee - you sent me a link
to chat with you here.
mircea_popescu: what i got from
the digest was, customer paid, provider shipped, insurance blew up.
Chaang-Noi: he is saying he cant give
the silver because he would run out of money
mod6: "i hate it when its
too many niggas, not enough hoes,
too many rookies, not enough pros!"
Chaang-Noi: they cant send
the silver cuz
they will lose money
mircea_popescu: i liked
that line enough im now digging
to find who
the fuck came up with it
mircea_popescu: <mod6>
too many amatures not enough pros,
too many bitches, not enough ho's... << good one
Chaang-Noi: they are really good, have 3 females and a male, im breeding
them
mod6: rotts are supposed
to be awesome dogs.
Chaang-Noi: and i need a
truck for
the rotts... cuz 4 large dogs are big... but its good cuz
the rotts can gaurd
the
truck... fucking crazy
BitHub: i met
this guy maybe a month into it? no business plan, its crazy
Chaang-Noi: got 4 rotts
to garud
the house, neighbors start
to fuck with
the rotts... so i get video camerias
to protect
the rotts, fucking crazy
mod6: too many amatures not enough pros,
too many bitches, not enough ho's...
Chaang-Noi: yeah, had no idea it could do
that but hell, same price
mod6: BitHub: well, we all have
to start somewhere.
BitHub: its amazing
the amount of amatures
that i come across sometimes,
they dont even have a business plan or anything and
think
they're going
to land on an exchange or PT and be
taken seriously?
mod6: s.dice has had an interesting ride into divs, and even after... seems
to be doing
the inverse of what you would expect.
mircea_popescu: jumpin' jesus on a stick,
three months is now a
track record ;/
mircea_popescu: "I notice
there are some BTC bookies. So I
thought I would help bettors win more bets. I began betting on sports back in December 2012 with a nice record so far. "
aiball: do you know what's wrong with s.dice price? is
this just a dollar based stock?
aiball: mr. p. I'd say
that's
the biggest wild card at
the moment - a high profile hack. your shit is safe right?
mircea_popescu: o hey, it occurs
to me,
this is
the right
time
to get hacked right ?

mircea_popescu: question is, can
this be at all
traced based on some qualities of
the hash flux
mircea_popescu: obviously i can set up a mining pool account and proxy other peoples mining
there.
mircea_popescu: specifically, how
traceable is hashing based on
the reject rate ?
mircea_popescu: anyone rthat understands mining, how sensible is
that ?
mircea_popescu: I
think 67117 is proxy pool.
The hash output is always simillar
to SLUSH's. SLUSH has 2.6% rejection rate -they obviusly proxy pooling. Still not real proof of working ASIC.
mircea_popescu: you can sell calls short which would be doing exactly
that.
Namworld: I
think
the current success would be shorting your BTC for USD
mircea_popescu: no better way
to showcase btc success
than a successful exit for him.
maximian: yep, it's a possibility, and I believe he's
the kind of guy who could pull it off.
mircea_popescu: but i can see erik reasonably walking away from anything under 100mn
total
maximian: imo,
the best case scenario for s.dice is an acquisition by a big player looking for a quick entrance into btcland

maximian: It wasn't clear
that he was
talking about s.dice, but it would be nice if he's hinting at an acquisition or partnership
maximian: evoorhees has
to get cracking and start promoting
this
thing again!
maximian: s.dice not doing so well so far
this month, but
that's
to be expected now and
then
mircea_popescu: on
the strength of
the action so far, s.dice is ahead what, 2k yet ?
mircea_popescu: course
there's another
thing : on
the strength of
the book so far, s.mpoe could walk home with 20-30k btc.
Namworld: There's a few multinationals like
that with low yield and high demand. Safety and stability are good
to consider.
mircea_popescu: maximian i guess maybe
that's it, in spite of early explosive success people expect it
to flame
Namworld: I
think. Still great stock. Stable, very old company. Popular as ever.
maximian: not if everyone expects it
to flame out early
mircea_popescu: actually i'd be much surprised if
the average retail investor could even
tell you what dividend his portofolio paid
mircea_popescu: course if you
think about it, a corp
that issues 10% divs a year is not automatically better
than one
that issues 3%
mircea_popescu: but anyway, s.dice has so far paid ~50k satoshi per share in dividends
to s.mpoe's ~2k
Namworld: good
to know
that people with enough BTC
to
trade on MPEx can manage not
to screw up deposits.
mircea_popescu: ftr an incorrect deposit has yet
to make it
to shareholders.
there was a grand
total of like, 1 so far.
maximian: I
think people know
that mope is here
to stay, but
there's a lot of uncertainty around s.dice
mircea_popescu: Revenue from sales fee : 187.80380028 BTC (Total
trade : 93`901.90014227 BTC)
dub: Namworld: I didn't know fees contributed
to s.mpoe, its not just
the options?
mircea_popescu: tho
tbh... it doesn't seem
to account for
the disparity.
mircea_popescu: if people are
thinking "s.dice has consistantly been over EV" it may be a consideration.
mircea_popescu: i
think
the fact
that mpoe/mpex can't have a lossy month for shareholders may be a factor.
maximian: evoorhees could have done
the same
maximian: evoorhees, on
the other hand, sold way below market price for some crazy unfathomable reason, which was a big WTF
mircea_popescu: maximian actually more an attempt
to keep it from bubbling up
than anything.
maximian: actually, MP has regularly dumped mpoe shares as well, but he did it differently: he placed large asks well above
the market price
Chaang-Noi: asic miner is
the next big hot
trader i bet
Namworld: Well S.MPOE could dramatically improve with a majority of assets
trading moving
to MPEx
Chaang-Noi: dice at .003? id buy at
that price some...
dub: maximian: or
that
there won't be any more surprise share splits
Namworld: I guess if you consider MPEx's
track record and long
term, if people expect Bitcoins
to become mainstream and MPEx
to retain it's #1 position
to
trade assets...
maximian: it must be a confidence
thing. perhaps people have little faith
that s.dice will be around long
term.
maximian: even
though its divs performance is consistently worse
than s.dice's
Namworld: Of course, lots of options being
traded
maximian: MPOE is in demand, on
the other hand
dub: what is surprising about
that?
dub: DT going on 'holiday'
to italy
Namworld: Now everyone wants BTC in
their hands
maximian: that would have gone in a flash last week I
think
maximian: there's a big fat ask
there at 0.0047
