Namworld: what is
that supposed
to represent?
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller no, inasmuch as it's
the statjson of
that account.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: is
there away
to get
the STATJSON without mpex account?
mircea_popescu: in
the case of 310 breakeven is x, in
the case of 220 breakeven is y
mircea_popescu: i imagine you would get a bunch of people going
there daily just
to check
that
Namworld: then average
this weighted by
the volume of
that line << what do you mean by
that?
mircea_popescu: go into
the vwap json, calculate
the implicit breakeven of each option line
Namworld: So you can select options with
the most return per BTC, based on current asks
Namworld: You can change
the price you expect
the average
to reach and see ROI at execution.
mircea_popescu: and absent actual experiments (which did NOT occur)
the agreement is by definition agreement of idiots.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller
that's not how reality works i'm affraid.
Namworld: Seen my update
to my options calculator
tool, mircea?
thestringpuller: That's not for you
to decide, one scientist performs and experiment publishes results. Another verifies.
Namworld: I'm
the one who make
tools around here =/
mircea_popescu: consequently,
the headcount of "known and respected" is dismal.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller but you do bring an interesting point. in spite of 1mn words being written a week into
this channel,
there's an incredible dearth of people doing useful stuff, such as, keeping a blog with good quality research.
mircea_popescu: for
that matter
the owner himself can come out and make monthly statements like everyone else.
mircea_popescu: you wish
to propose something exists, you'll have
to do a lot better
than
that.
thestringpuller: with
that logic only yourself and smickles are elgible
to run
the study :P
thestringpuller: then pay someone
to make an estimate otherwise you can't discount
them as competition
Ukto: mircea_popescu: does
that person exist? someone you know and respect? ;)
mircea_popescu: otherwise, we might as well steal
the numbers off of RIAA/MPAA's piracy estimates
mircea_popescu: absent a statement from
the owner itself, i want
to see
the estimate of someone i know and respect.
Ukto: Produced br SR
themselves.
mircea_popescu: some clueless noob calling his farting "a study" is not going
to wash in
this conversation.
thestringpuller: 15k-18k btc per day in
transaction volume for SR based on 2012 figures
mircea_popescu: im
too lazy
to dig up
the data, but most of 2012
they ran in
the red.
Ukto: but not
THAT expensive
Ukto: beteen mark, his few employees,
the office
thestringpuller: but
the feedback is happening less now so most
the of
the
transactions are ghost
Ukto: gox's expendatures are not
that high
Ukto: with all
the bs going on
Ukto: although someone
told me
that
there has been alot more guns and ammo lately
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: lemme rephrase silk road is
THE
top BTC business atm
Ukto: thats including
the BTC earnings
tho
Ukto: due
tot he mass influx of cash
Ukto: the last 30 days
they made some 80~100k USD worth
Ukto: mircea_popescu: its not hard
to figure out gox's profits
mircea_popescu: they did monthly reporting
too for a few months but
then gave up
mircea_popescu: pizzaman1337
they'd be around
there, possibly, but haven't had a report out in like 18 months i
think
Ukto: you have
to wait for someone
to scrape
the data and make one
mircea_popescu: i don't
think it would be
too hard, just get
the parser and run it
fydel: mircea_popescu ok..thank you....so internet site where I can see it in real
time?
mircea_popescu: no, sdice made like 60-70k, mpoe made like 20k or so,
there's a reason
these are
the
top bitcoin corps.
mircea_popescu: i
think bugpowder has a copy
too, i don't recall where it is on github
Ukto: as of
that last post profit was: 67,956.41
mircea_popescu: Ukto it's not site data, someone wrote a chain
traverser
Ukto: oh, is douglas manually producing
them based on site data?
mircea_popescu: fydel it comes from dooglus, if you click
the link above it you'll see
Ukto: seen it before, not sure where its hosted
tho
Ukto: isnt
that
the sdice graph ?
Namworld: We wouldn't be able
to batch import option passthroughs
Namworld: yeah,
that kind of
thing just doesn't happen on BTCT.co with voting
Namworld: Both platforms would need more assets and users
tho. Not happening currently. No volume.
Diablo-D3: so I guess Im in a mostly good mood
today
Ukto: but once I finish
this project for BF, I will be knocking out a
ton of small stuffs
Ukto: when i get
tired of working on it and need a break, i do little
things
Ukto: as for notifications, I have a large notifications system partially developed. I am
trying
to get my big project for BF done
though
Namworld: Aye. Well honestly, it's not bad
to be split multiple platforms.
Ukto: Just like he's liked some of my stuff. It's all about making
things better for
the users.
Ukto: I have no shame in admitting
that lol
Ukto: Honestly, I do like some of
the features of btct, I added some originally with BF. he has had alot of good ideas
Namworld: But since I selected BTCT.co, I feel like I have
to get people
to use it more.
Namworld: Not
that your platform is bad =P
Namworld: I just like
the way bids and everything is handled on BTCT.co
too
pigeons: only place you can get
those 2 sepearate
things, a managed mpbor fund, and xdiff passthroughs, is bitfunder,
to clarify
pigeons: and
the prices aren't pumped by funds multiplied
to bid on all
the assets
Ukto: Namworld: bad selection? how mean. :P Why dont you help out and list a btc-bond or something. And
there IS a
trade api. just been working
to make it nice for everyone. and what 'not as nice features' are you refering
to? Might be on
the list. :)
assbot: I
thought I
told you not
to
touch me.
gribble: Next difficulty estimate | 4319163.31016 based on data since last change | 4308400.33984 based on data for last
three days
kakobrekla: well, what can i say, i
trully wouldnt be suprised.
