mircea_popescu: you put order A in. then B. then C.
jurov: but i mean order of trades, are they in any useful order?
mircea_popescu: is that problematic ?
mircea_popescu: you should be able to recognise them by the order you put them in
mircea_popescu: jurov the thing is tho, order of orders is preserved
jurov: the issue is that after desync is done, one ends up with bunch of only weakly identifiable transactions
Namworld: Ah, you will need to add a server or two maybe.
mircea_popescu: working to make all this smoother, but traffic just keeps going up.
mircea_popescu: something does happen, you just don't hear about it till the webserver resyncs
mircea_popescu: the result is new trades not being reported. they DO happen, you just don't hear about them.
mircea_popescu: that link can get broken, it shouldn't happen to often but it does happen
mircea_popescu: so about webserver desync earlier : mpex uses a (trade server) - (web server) architecture. you can't talk to the trade engine directly.
jurov: deadterra, i have uncredited deposits, too. stay in queue. :)

smickles: it's the same as a regular mpex command
mjr_: and then people see that it is viable
mjr_: so if i start a smaller thing
mjr_: a real etf will be very difficult and that is a sizable bet for something no one has heard of and dn't understand
Bugpowder: manage that is
Bugpowder: probably need to raise 50M to make it worth it
mjr_: i basically know how to join a group that's it
Chilca: I'm on the West coast
mjr_: just an employee at a financial technology company with a couple broker dealer subsidiaries
Chilca: mjr_: send me a DM, we can talk privately. Maybe I can help you
mjr_: but i don't have it at the moment
mjr_: and we have not even touched the issue of actually funding the fund
mjr_: um...to buy a company takes money
mjr_: stuff like that
mjr_: but that takes a little more regulatory work
mjr_: the easiest way to do ti
mjr_: and it would not cost much, there are a million ways to go public
mjr_: and put it up on the pink sheets
mjr_: you don't even have to talk to the SEC for pink sheets
mjr_: well this is my plan
Bugpowder: a typo
Chilca: I know a VC really interested to invest in VTC. so if you guys have a good plan, I can help you to introduce to him.
Bugpowder: how do you solve the regulatory issue?
mjr_: when they see it as viable
mjr_: cuz they don't understand it
Bugpowder: if you can create the product
mjr_: i'm not saying it isn't possible, i'm hjust saying no one is willing to take the risk right now
Bugpowder: I don't think it would be hard to raise millions
mjr_: but yes, you have to capitalize it very well
mjr_: i don't know what the SEC would make of bitcoins
Bugpowder: what is the main issue?
mjr_: what i am saying is that if i knew lloyd blankfein, i couldn't get it to happne
Bugpowder: you need to know some bigger fish
mjr_: but i don't think interest has percolated to an institutional level yet
mjr_: i am in the finance world, but i have no information about bitcoin etf's
mjr_: but they probably won't for quite some time
mjr_: i wish they would
mjr_: i think i can have mine up and running for 50k
Bugpowder: You would need to partner with an existing firm
mjr_: and that is just for lawyers and underwriters
Bugpowder: with the right connections and support
mjr_: good luck with the SEC
Bugpowder: I can only imagine the regulatory shit
Chilca: who is currently working to open a real ETF?
mjr_: but in the end after all, it will track the bitcoin economy
Bugpowder: I would like to open a real ETF
mjr_: so it won't be a TRUE etf
mjr_: the requirements to get on pink sheets is ridiculously low
mjr_: to channel demand into the bitcoin economy
mjr_: i told you my plan is to open a publicly traded company in the real exchanges
jurov: especially mpex futures need someone to marketmake them
mjr_: tbh...i am kinda glad that huge spike stopped, it was a bit scary
mjr_: hopefully giving investors an index of the entire bitcoin economy eventually, not just a currency index
mjr_: but i am thinking of also using options and sdice to pad the portfolio
mjr_: i think we talked about my plan last time i was on
mjr_: so i am thinking that the returns will be great...appreciation and dividends
