jurov: "do you have the shares safely stored?" "yes, i have whole mpex database in cold storage"
mircea_popescu: jurov i'd argue that making copies of the mpex_db is pretty safe.
mircea_popescu: but none of the current nonsense.
jurov: and i personally wait for someone to aptly and comprehensively blog about them
mircea_popescu: eventually mpex will be p2p too im pretty sure
jurov: well, there are tries to make p2p exchanges... but so far it looks they are not usable for anything near mpex volume/speed
Bugpowder: I think the shares are probably safer in MPs machine than in mine :-P
mjr_: but for the coins, i was thinking paper wallet in safe deposit box
mjr_: so probably better to leave them there
mjr_: yeah no big deal, it is the most secure i've seen really
jurov: there is none known way to take shares out of mpex and nto safe if that's what you mean
mjr_: and was wondering if there was something similar for the shares etc
mjr_: i was planning on a paper wallet that i could continue to pour coins into, but would not be connected to anything
jurov: they have to be there, for online trading to be possible
mjr_: where do you hold the shares that you buy? are they in an account on mpex?
jurov: btw, i think i left there commented js code to read mpex rss feed... so if anyone wants an example
mjr_: doesn't even show all of that, weirdly enough it works in IE so maybe issues on my end
jurov: if on the screnshot is anything beyond [Back to CoinBr] [S.DICE] [S.BBET] Show trades for last:
mjr_: i can try other web browsers if that would help
mjr_: i have to do it in the tiny sliver at the top in order to get to inspect element
mjr_: weirdly enough i can't right click on the area where the chart would be
jurov: dunno then
mjr_: at least all the scripts seem to have loaded properly
mjr_: does not appear to be js related
mjr_: it's the chart that is not loading so it could be a problem with my handling of svg i guess
mjr_: but if i close the inspect element, it doesn't load
jurov: mjr_: try sending screenshot, i'll look what else it can be
mircea_popescu: ahahah this is good
mjr_: is that not supported?
mjr_: and i have not seen any way to change those settings
mjr_: as far as i can see it just takes mt. gox
mircea_popescu: i thought it was pretty much user configured
mjr_: i really like the layout and design of clarkmoody
mircea_popescu: if you make something a buncha people like/use there may be a market for you in it
mjr_: i think there is some image which doesn't load and it blocks the actual symbols
mircea_popescu: pretty much everything else you have to make yourself
mircea_popescu: raw data is in the jsons/rss
mjr_: oh yeah i think i have been there but it never renders correctly
mjr_: i have not, i will take a look at it
mjr_: is the json feed the only way?
mjr_: ok maybe a silly question but i don't think it was in the faq (i'll double check) is there a way to see level II info for the stocks?
mircea_popescu: ya by the looks of it
mjr_: cool stuff, was that a market order that took a few levels?
mjr_: about how maybe strong encryption should have been classified as a weapon so it'd be protected by the second amendment lol
mjr_: there was a great xkcd about that...
mod6: But still, people have this kneejerk reaction about PGP. But I'm always like "But PGP is your friend!!"
mod6: those files will have to be copied onto the device in the manual way, and then they'll be able to be read in and secured, etc.
mod6: (that along with their public key)
mod6: At minimum they'll have to export their private key from their keyring to an asciiarmored output, so that at least...
mod6: Even with BitOTTer, the users will have to know how to use PGP (gpg) tools to use it though. So learning this is still required.
mircea_popescu: this is true, yeah.
mod6: So that's an awesome way to do manual orders or do some testing.
mod6: I was going to add though, it is great to have a way to submit orders right through the textarea with the submit button. I used to do a lot of orders by hand until I wrote the perl thingy.
mjr_: i see no reason not to just hold it, but you could just get in and out on dividend day]
mjr_: especially if the market doesn't seem to want to price them in
mjr_: i think its awesome that you can buy shares literally right before the dividend and still get them
malaimo: maybe to pick up some "cheap" shares from people who want out after the most recent dividend...
evoorhees: yeah I don't know why people would wait to buy until after the dividend lol
maximian: amateurs who don't get the whole dividends thing?
mircea_popescu: why not buy 6 hours earlier get divs too ?!
JohnGalt49ers: yes, 7 btc to 500 something
error4733: please you'r welcome this month again
JohnGalt49ers: I took 6k from him
mircea_popescu: it may become that, who knows.
maximian: this should be evoorhee's full time job… he's going to be fabulously rich
mircea_popescu: no but in seriousness, they're pretty smart guys, survived the recent doublespend attacks that wiped a few of the betting people
mircea_popescu: if that.
maximian: the whole thing is what, two guys and a server?
maximian: Just looking at the Jan s.dice statement. 1.2M BTC in handle is stunning… wow!
mod6: oh and MOAR CAPZ too
mircea_popescu: even giga is trolling them
mircea_popescu: this avalon thread is so full of win
mircea_popescu: 80 made the most sense
mircea_popescu: course, since i was gonna have to pipe orders in somehow
jurov: also that would fall nicely into the plan to tell noobs coinbr is all there is, mpex is the old version
mod6: but, it is totally not required.
mod6: I mean, it exists as a way for people to go, "Oh hey! It exists!"
mircea_popescu: im seriously thinking of eventually taking the website off entirely.
mod6: I've never quite understood why people feel so but hurt about the website. I mean, its really just a formality. It doesn't even need a website! lol
mircea_popescu: All of the firmware and software we develop for our devices are completely opensource."
smickles: that's the max
smickles: or wait, what's the current diff
mod6: pizzaman1337: it'll be availble through the MPEx affiliate program.
mircea_popescu: but do they trade x.idiff ? no they don't.
mircea_popescu: dudes sit around writing that shit on their blogs
mircea_popescu: Depending on BFL's shipping schedule, the network hashrate could be from ~ 120 Thps to ~ 290Thps, with Difficulty reaching between 15 and 40 million before mid May.
jurov: why all the trouble? just use throwaway key. scan iris, pay 30 bucks, trade on teh mpex. problem solved.
mod6: ate up a bunch of time too, now the code reads in the private key, will ask the user for a passphrase to encrypt the private key with, then that will be used to decrypt when needed to read in the priavte key upon launch. this will be a different passphrase that is used with the PGP private key itself, of course.
pizzaman1337: mod6: just curious, how do you plan on monetizing that? (if at all)
mod6: pizzaman1337: yup, i've implemented a way... i started off trying to do some other ways, like a keystore, etc.. but that didn't work out.
mod6: pretty l33t there, verdad?
mod6: which leads me to mircea_popescu's thing that he posted on trilema about the eyescan2pgpkeys
mod6: but.. its kinda rough with some of the encryption stuff - and making sure someones private key is secure is a challenge.
mod6: i have a ton of work done already for an Android version. its called BitOTTer... http://www.bitotter.com
mod6: one thing im gonna work on today is wrapping up json stat stuff. but then i gotta get that encryption stuff wrapped up.
mircea_popescu: smickles i think racist is what pinkos call people who call them pinkos
mircea_popescu: dude if you don't launch soon ima start sending escorts to your door at like 2am
smickles: hmm, i don't recall that article being much about race
mircea_popescu: anyway if mod6 evergets the iphone app out that'll be funny
mircea_popescu: maximian i think a few people
