dub: I went
to fill in
the Paypal form, spent 10 mins signing up

dub: so much funny right
there
dub: The point
to Bitcoin is
that you can choose your own level of
trust in an external service. One of our group's members, Patrick Strateman, came up with a scheme whereby a wallet could be recovered algorithmically using an email and a password.

dub: im
thinking multiple personalitly disorder
dub: The sooner
they are regulated,
the sooner users can have legal assurances

their operations.
The negligence seen at MTGox would never have happened in a regulated market.
dub: My
team is already in contact with SWIFT which has operated for 30 years and is
the backbone of international money
transfer for over 9000 banks.

FabianB_: mircea_popescu: didn't u want
to spring scrub K.KBRL?
kakobrekla: hm,
that bitcointalk
thread should be in
teh wiki ;>
Bugpowder: do you know anyone
that speaks it?
Diablo-D3: esperanto is
the most widespread artifical language
Bugpowder: If I wanted
to claim
to be a speaker of a language, I would pick one which nobody else would be able
to confirm
that I can or cannot speak
Bugpowder: "Taaki is a speaker of Esperanto, which he promotes as an auxiliary country-neutral international language
to preserve local languages. "
dub: THIS IS
THE SIDE OF MY HEAD,
THERE ARE MANY HEADSIDES LIKE IT BUT
THIS ONE IS MINE
dub: I like
the pick of amir on
that page
though, looks like he's
trying
to make a facepalm but can't even manage
that
dub: letting fucktards and assgoblins run PR has been deemed
the best way
to keep us clear of
the mainstream

there.
Bugpowder: I have a friend
that is finally ready
to buy some coins $5k worth. What's
the best way right now? I used
Tangible Cryptography in
the past, and was great. Not sure if he will accept new clients right now
though.
smickles: Bugpowder: does blockchain display (what are
they called) coinbase messages now?
Bugpowder: Public Note:
The ghost of Satoshi will rip off your head and crap in your
throat.
thestringpuller: you're from romania...that's like
telling
the street urchin who
turned into a prince he doesn't know "street life"
mircea_popescu: and he's about
to graduate
the local agricaltural college
too!
mircea_popescu: heck, copying what betfair does got him all
the way
through highschool in rome wisconsin
mircea_popescu: "I have
to agree, I was
trying
to work out how
the odds are calculated and it makes no sense. Why not copy what Betfair or Intrade or something like
that do."
mircea_popescu: te of
the market, as you can with priced markets. 2. You should never bet until
the last second so you can know
the odds for
the bet. In fact, it would make sense
to create a sniping bot
that would programmatically calculate
the odds, compare
them
to your probability estimate, and only make
the bet if it is favorable.
There is another site called Bets of Bitcoin (
http://betsofbitco.in/) that has similarly dumb rules.
mircea_popescu: This betting site has a really stupid betting system. It appears
that
the amount of money you receive isn't based on a pricing of
the bet, as is done on all real prediction markets, but based on a simple payout of all
the bets received on
the other side of
the bet by
the end of
the bet date.
This system has
two practical consequences: 1. You can't determine
the markets current probability estimates from
the current sta
mircea_popescu: jesus, i am sick and
tired of
the internet opening up a global venue for each single imbecile who'd normally be locked away somewherhe among four walls.

time

the boards, but afaik
they were being produced concurrently
