jborkl: SD about to cross 3 million bets
mircea_popescu: kakobreklaa last time i heard of him he was getting owned by the girl
kakobreklaa: last time i checked inaba was making exuses they will likely fail their power req. and lose the bet they made publicly
mircea_popescu: once btc takes over, these fabled early asics will sell at sotheby's
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves one angle i think most people fail to grok is that
ThickAsThieves: I surmise that over time theyll be worth it anyway
ThickAsThieves: i ordered a couple a month ago, I just wanna own em, not worried if they make the money
mircea_popescu: but yes, if they specced 66 and deliver 73 they lose.
mircea_popescu: as the things were supposed to come out in november last or something like that.
mircea_popescu: anyway, if they deliver by 1st of march they're grossly NOT on time
ThickAsThieves: *deliver on time
ThickAsThieves: so if their devices all have a bonus speed of 11%, and ship on time, they still failed to meet the qualitifications?
mircea_popescu: they deliver what they say or they fail.
ThickAsThieves: what if BFL makes them FASTER
mircea_popescu: i defy you to deliver any sort of item, no matter what it be, from potatoes or crude oil to combustion engines or lcd monitors
ThickAsThieves: what if the devices are 11% faster than spec'd?
mircea_popescu: what's weird about that ?
ThickAsThieves: Devices must be in scope of +-10% of advertised performance in order to be accepted as valid.
Chilca: Yea, I saw in the forum!, Thanks mircea_popescu
ThickAsThieves: info on their forum says that the chips will arrive at bumping facility today or tomorrow
mircea_popescu: wtf is this thing. seriously.
jcpham: you can tack on enough extra to make it not cheap though
jcpham: yeah i was going to say a sportster
mircea_popescu: is a harley that cheap ?
ThickAsThieves: mp, that guy on your link's last post is inquiring about buying a harley for 450btc, maybe he IS a whale
DeadWeasel: let them OD or not, either way, drug issues sort themselves out.
DeadWeasel: Imagine the organization it would take to determine exactly which package is was.
DeadWeasel: they're stopping due to a lack of budget. I doubt they'll hire drug dogs to hang out on weekends.
mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77870.msg1519243#msg1519243 one of the sd whales ?
ThickAsThieves: many of the drugs could be sniffed out
ThickAsThieves: all those drugs just sitting all weekend
DeadWeasel: ThickAsThieves: it also can't be stopped, unless they open every package of mail, which is illegal if it's US POST
ThickAsThieves: at least not in the US...
jurov: where does that "if bitcoin goes up,gambling/sd will subside" come from?
ThickAsThieves: the SR thing can't last
DeadWeasel: it is, that's why it's another solid corner of the pyramind
DeadWeasel: gambling is huge too, but they are more likely to stop at a certain point
DeadWeasel: there is more activity on SR and their forums than any other bitcoin related activity
ThickAsThieves: the best part about SR users is they dont care what the echange rate is
ThickAsThieves: it's certainly "helping" tho
mircea_popescu: this entire "sr drives bitcoin" is about as stupid as people thinking cowboy movies drove the us west.
DeadWeasel: i think that's as good as it gets. If porn can create the internet then addicts can create a new currencyu.
DeadWeasel: addicts, the foundation of bitcoin.
DeadWeasel: i know they are out of Oxycotin already. 3 day weekend.
DeadWeasel: I wonder how many SR users are waiting to get to the bank today, after being snowed in all weekend.

DeadWeasel: and it looks like there is .5 BTC bot pushing down on the price....

Diablo-D3: might as well start bidding on those asicminer shares then

Chaang-Noi: they waited for pirated to pay, and then either gave up or joined the SEC
Chaang-Noi: and when i say we i mean myself and my lawyers, no one else wanted to join in.
Chaang-Noi: we were active until the SEC made it clear they were doing their thing
gribble: A market order to buy 25000 bitcoins right now would take 673080.6320 USD and would take the last price up to 31.3000 USD, resulting in an average price of 26.9232 USD/BTC.

BitHub: hoping to buy some custom fitted clubs this year
Bowjob: i have the best blanka around!
jurov: snow and frost here too...but also full sunshine :D
knotwork: If you are pretty confident bitcoins are just going to generally keep going up and up, are options of much use, or are they generally mostly useful if you are uncertain thus want to hedge against your uncertainty?
mjr__: so no one has used camp bx? they have a pretty cool platform
mjr__: i can't wait for the end of this month
jurov: i think mp recognized that and set diff futures expiration in the middle of week instead
jurov: not exactly the brightest idea , if you ask me
mjr__: options expire almost a week before month end this month
jurov: that way i bought 40BTC worth of s.mpoe below 0.00062 this night
mjr__: the last assbot message was my order going through :)
mjr__: since they have an ING direct checking, if you have one, you can move money to their account same day
