mircea_popescu: Nov 17 19:57:25 <_Fireball> honestly, by reading your blog post, I see
that you have little idea how futures exchanges work
smickles: it's certainly plauseable
that
they were
trying
to pop
the longs
smickles: < smickles> so a clearing house... it basically holds stuff and keeps a record of who owns it and makes it easy
to
transfer ownership of
the
things? <<< i'll add requiring collateral
to
this
smickles: so
the icbit situation speaks directly
to
the need for a btc clearinghouse
smickles: so a clearing house... it basically holds stuff and keeps a record of who owns it and makes it easy
to
transfer ownership of
the
things?
smickles: thestringpuller: do I know any basic linear algerbra? I should
think so

Namjies: mircea_popescu: fancy. I say
the change.
EskimoBob: rbenzaquen:
there are "brokers" who can execute your
trades for you, so you do not have
to cough up
the excessive account sign up fees :)
mircea_popescu: rbenzaquen well if you signed
the key it should be ok.
EskimoBob: so, who is going
to do
the PT for ART? :)
rbenzaquen: I did not send 30BTC, I don't know
to where.
rbenzaquen: Couldn't decode
the reply from MPEx, perhaps you didn't sign
the key?
try running
rbenzaquen: Invalid Signature, do not
trust
this data.
rbenzaquen: I'll look fwd
to learn and start operating.
rbenzaquen: ok, So , I'll start creating my gpg pub key. and start playing,
thanks very much for your help!!
mircea_popescu: say you want
to deposit 100 btc. it says "deposit 100.48973984 BTC"
rbenzaquen: mircea_popescu: If I want
to make an order, how do I pay it?
rbenzaquen: mircea_popescu: great, I'll do
that now. something I don't understand, how you co-relate your gpg public key with BTC public key?
rbenzaquen: mircea_popescu:
Thanks, I have installed gpg in my linux box, do I need
to generate a pub key?
rbenzaquen: mircea_popescu: Hi , Is
there any place
that help me
to understand how can I start working with mpex.co?
thestringpuller: i
thought
the settler and buyer were usually
the same or am I confused?
mircea_popescu: when
the
time comes, everything outstanding you deliver.
thestringpuller: i have a question about 1: upon
the settlement date,
the clearing house would immediately purchase said physical assets immediately (whatever
total volume dependent on
the list from 1 and 2), from money on hand, however would mpex reimburse
them (in btc
that is)
thestringpuller: for instance if
this were barrels of oil and not crates of cocoa
mircea_popescu: we're not discussing any volume yet, haven't gotten
to
that
thestringpuller: if all contracts are coming from a geographic convergence point (close
to
the same area) rather
than a divergent one,
the cost is significantly lower
mircea_popescu: well, if beneficiary fails
to state you don't deliver.
mircea_popescu: 3. you execute within a fixed
timeframe, possibly for a fee.
mircea_popescu: 2. people on
the list send you signed messages stating disposition of
their cocoa
mircea_popescu: 1. upon settlement date all held contracts are
to be delivered, mpex prepares list of fingerprints and amounts, signs
the list and sends it
to you.
thestringpuller: well ISYS/logistics engineer like
those guys who yell at
the warehouse packers
to make sure UPS is "moving at
the speed of business"
thestringpuller: mainly all I need is a good delivery egineer,
the fee would depend on volume
thestringpuller: if he just wants
to pick up said asset, and store it in his house from port or whatever delivery
terminal
that can be arranged, but given we're dealing with
the internet (this person could be any place on earth),
then
there has
to be some kind of shipping network
