jcpham: i hope coinlab succeeds
though
jcpham: coinlab is pissing me off for changing
their business model and delaying
things
pigeons: "Mt. Gox really wants
to be 100% out of
the US/Canada market."
pigeons: well its been
true. exchb was a good example.
ThickAsThieves: i dunno dont you
think gox is probably shedding 80% of
the work for .2% of
the profit?
mircea_popescu: pigeons
the sad news in all of
this is mtgox basically saying "the us market is not worth serving"
pigeons: mtgox has quite low margins anyway and coinlab has a reputation at not understanding how
to make money
mircea_popescu: i wonder if it ever will be
the case
that
total blocks mined by asicminer >
total posts made in asicminer
thread.
mircea_popescu: all
they need now is
the rabbit out of a hat and
they'll survive.
mircea_popescu: which all boils down
to jcpham being basically right :
mircea_popescu: course, fixing it in
their usual dodderingway, but at least
the attempt is
there.
mircea_popescu: well, i appreciate at
tleast
the part where
they read up on what
they fucked up and
try
to fix it
jcpham: if coinlab doesn't pull a rabbit out of
their hat, i predict
they are over
pigeons: nOgAnOo:
that makes no sense
pigeons: and in a horrible country for financial
transactions!
ThickAsThieves: because if
they did, everyone would know
that gox basically raped CoinLab investors for a chance
to make bitcoin available
to dummies
nOgAnOo: Easier for corporations
to buy mass amounts of bitcoins
mircea_popescu: pigeons yes but
then again
they never don't and usually don't even know what anything means.
mircea_popescu: "Liquidity requires symmetric information, which is easiest
to achieve when everyone is ignorant.
This determines
the design of many securities, including
the design of debt and securitization"
nOgAnOo: Sorry I'm 24 hours late on
the news post
nOgAnOo: I just rejoined bitcoin
today
mircea_popescu: lol as a result of
the discussions here, mtgox came out with a forum post in support of coinbase.

jurov: hm, i milked goats late in summer myself... and i know

jurov: we'll see when americans "wake up
to" it
jurov: but
then, 23.73 seems
too low
jurov: in
the parentheses are next month/this month?
jurov: yup it used
the graph as
thumbnail
mircea_popescu: Chips almost bumped, shipping on week of 4 - or 11 at
the latest
mircea_popescu: but srsly, i envisage
this being used as a replacement for satoshi dice random number generator
jurov: i stand corrected. i can now imagine
the hysteria on #assets "crash!! oix down 0.5 satoshi!!"
jurov: hate
to nitpick, but 10 decimal places?
two are sufficient for such index
kakobrekla: aha so its you, mircea and me,
the
three fucked yuropean
kakobrekla: jurov are you already or still up
this morning
jurov: And placing
the exchange's funds within US jurisdiction will make it harder for
the firm
to disappear with customers' cash.
jurov: ars managed
to put a foot into
their mouth as well
jurov: maybe after a while i get so confused so i'll mention coinbr along with
them it and havoc ensues :D
jurov: i did it awhile after
that
jurov: <jurov> [21:52:28 CET] what do you
think about bet: CoinLab will close or cease bitcoin payments by June ?
jurov: bet will resolve as YEs when coinlab.com will be unavailable
through 7 days straight,
too.
jurov: i'll
try
to reconstruct it from memory: CoinLab will close or cease bitcoin payments by end of
this year
topace_: nope.. just
the fingerprint
topace_: oo actually gnupg_verify() will return
the plaintext portion of hte message for me (but not
the signature portion)
mircea_popescu: (one after begin message
tag, one after begin signature
tag) and non-base64 chars you should be ok.
topace_: okay excellent, i
think
that gives me enough
to get
this implemented
tomorrow.. bedtime now!
thanks for your help!
topace_: becuase one stray \n would cause a different digest for
the same receipt
mircea_popescu: if you sign
the same
thing multiple
times
the sig will be different yes
topace_: if i was going
to do a digest of
the whole message, i'd have
to do it based on a post-processed data (removing
the comments and
the blank lines, etc)
topace_: if you sign
the same
thing multiple
times,
the signature will always be different
though, right?
jurov: interesting,
this signature stuff
topace_: then i should still
take a hash of
the signature, and use
the hash as my unique identifier?
topace_: on
the push receipt im using as a sample at least
topace_: yea.. okay
that makes sense..
mircea_popescu: 5. you look for an = and wipe everything from
that point forward (including it)
mircea_popescu: 4. you wipe
the first line after it no matter what it contains, and as many empty lines only after
that
mircea_popescu: 3. you look for
the -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
tag.
mircea_popescu: 2. you wipe
the first line after it no matter what it contains, and as many empty lines only after
that
mircea_popescu: 1. you look for -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----. if not found, kill
the
task. if found :
topace_: then using
that as my unique identifier
to ensure i never double-process
the same receipt?
