mircea_popescu: Namworld well
the appeal is
this : if you go
to iran and say hey, don't be stupid moving your dough on aplane, move it in bitcoin
Namworld: Maybe... I don't see
the appeal in higher prices
tho
ThickAsThieves: finally caught up on
the chat log, mp,
that stripper
thread is great
mircea_popescu: so i
think one of
the reasons price is going up is
to give space for various interests.
mircea_popescu: the
thing with bitcoin is,
the larger
the
total value
the more appealing
they are
to people.
Namworld: It's just
that now, we're way
too high.
Namworld: It just seems like
that price is not sustainable
to me. Although I
think Bitcoins are worth more
than last year and will continue
trending upward.
Namworld: Now in
the last days, no asks almost. Price skyrocketed, no one was selling.
Namworld: The price raising fast over
the yearly
trend seems
to be near pirate end, when lots of people got burned. Dropped a bit afterward.
Then everyone started
to load up for some reason.
swhitt: is
there any way
to see 2nd derivative of
that
trendline?
Namworld: yeah, uptrend. But
the current price? Might be a bubble.

swhitt: so I might do a combination of
twitter+irc
swhitt: well, I'd want redundancy if it wasn't
the "official" feed
swhitt: yeah, I completely understand.
That makes sense.
mircea_popescu: you can probably configure a listener bot in
this chan and it can push
to you wherever
tho
mircea_popescu: ya but you'd have
to be strategically important. in general what im
thinking is push
to some high uptime strong distribution networks and everyone can poll
those
swhitt: that might be easier
to ensure
that everything is up
to date.
swhitt: no way
to subscribe
to a push at
this
time?
mircea_popescu: you can also get
the
twitter feed, if you have a
twitter api key
swhitt: mircea_popescu: oh, ok. I won't be anything near
that. I'd let you know before I did anything close
to
that. How often does assbot poll?
swhitt: if I were
to be polling for changes
mircea_popescu: <Bugpowder> I wish I had enough coins
to destroy
this rally <<< one doesn't simply destroy
this rally.
mircea_popescu: methinks
the mtgox book may be as meaningless as
the mpex book.
Namworld: But now
the bids depths are very short
Namworld: Some bought back a few
thousands...

Namworld: I
think
the odds of
the rally going down before
the 22th are good.
That first drop and more bearish ask is good enough
to me.
Bugpowder: I don't
think it was a bad call
though
Namworld: Better stick
to your decision.
That 10% will be no consolation.
Bugpowder: That dude
that covered his put short
Namworld: people bought... but
that was because
there's no market depth.
Namworld: Dropped a lot,
then it started going back up fast
Bugpowder: there was a 5k green candle on
the bounce now
Namworld: But I'm not 100% sure
that soon will be before
the 22th
Namworld: One of
the larger player off
to sell off a good chunk soon before it's
too late.
Bugpowder: I wish I had enough coins
to destroy
this rally
kakobrekla: i am aware of depth, lookin at same
thing since 2011 or what was it
Namworld: wow, did it bounce back
to 26?

DeadWeasel: if you constantly watch
the different charts, it's possible, but i work and eat and poop.
DeadWeasel: i love
the speculation
thread on bitcointalk
DeadWeasel: shoulda waited for
todays dump
though, but bugpowder is right
Bugpowder_: Show me a 5k volume candleon
the 15m and I'll believe it

BitHub: do you
think bbet would exchange some shares with me for some domains?
Bugpowder_: despite
the very resonable sale price on
the current MAR futures
BitHub: i don't understand
those enough
mircea_popescu: and
the div was calculated on ~400 btc
that closed in january.
mircea_popescu: well, bitbet made ~1400 worth of bets in jan.
there's already like 1300+ and it's half february
BitHub: long
term play as well
Bugpowder_: so shares are very expensive relative
to current div
Bugpowder_: S.BBET has potential, but got bought really high in
the IPO
Bugpowder_: until I see more money flowing into
the big betting accounts
BitHub: i
think it might be
the myspace of
the bitcoin world
Bugpowder_: but I have concerns about
their revenue staying up
BitHub: every share i have pays a div, which is nice, long
term play
BitHub: so buying and selling shares is much better
than just waiting on divs?
mircea_popescu: because
the listed busiensses are MUCH better at
their business
than avg btc person at allocating capital
mircea_popescu: there's actually perversely more room for stock appreciation
than for dividends
Bugpowder_: good, keep
that positive attitude and you'll go far son.
BitHub: just need
to get
that first n00b year out of
the way
