smickles: BTC-Mining: 20:16 < Lyspooner> give me some sort of bitcoin friday 25% guarantee <<<
that's how so ;)
Garr255: That would be cool, but I
think it'll be best
to keep it as straight forward as possible.
kakobrekla: "fun and profit" seems like something is missing in
that phrase... aa i got it "fun, profit and milk"
jurov: Garr255, you can incorporate mpex bonds in
the game.. for fun and profit
kakobrekla: not gonna stand in
the way just a word of warning
kakobrekla: add "for you" at
the end of first statement
Garr255: definitely don't ever
treat a game like
this as an "investment"
Garr255: kakobrekla, for some people it won't, for others it will.
that's how
these games work.
kakobrekla: i dont see how
this could possibly end well
Garr255: but
the game is going well, off
to a bit of a slow start
though
jurov: the K.KBRL plot
thickens
jurov: if btctalk enabled instant candy
transfers, it would melt down
jurov: more useful is
trading passwords for candy
smickles: thestringpuller:
that is likely going
to be 90% or more for 'mericans
Lyspooner: is
that why you have such great PR work on
the forums
mircea_popescu: not really. you need a lot more credibility
to make a mpex
than
to
trade usd for btc or back
Lyspooner: ok, but for
the same reasons
there may be many stock exchanges
to compete against mpex
mircea_popescu: understand, it's not like i have a deathwish for mtgox or anything.
they're doing something valuable and so on.
Lyspooner: mtgox merchant solutions is a nice component of
their business
mircea_popescu: for instance, irl an exchanger is bled
try in
taxes and reg costs, but also protected, because you need a license
to do it.
mircea_popescu: and also because irl currency exchanges are in a much better relation
to
the respective govts
Lyspooner: well if it is a fair analogy
then it has been a fair analogy for
the past
two years
Lyspooner: i could compare
their earnings, yes
mircea_popescu: ok. do you see how one of
them would compare
to
the stock exchange ?
mircea_popescu: <jurov> cause mircea is exponential <<< lol phrase of
the year.
Lyspooner: from BFL apparently: ""We'll notify you at least a week before your order is ready and you can send your FPGA in. We are working on a way
to cross ship you
the device, so you don't have any downtime. It will probably involve you sending us BTC for
the amount of
the device and we'll refund
the BTC when we get your FPGA unit back."
Lyspooner: so why should you be worth more
than mtgox?
jurov: i'm just poking some fun
to lyspooner
jurov: and
that noisy exhaust...
too, prolly
jurov: uhm, i was ging
to fix slightly recessed roof
tomorow... perhaps
that can wait a month
jurov: so, i just sold my 14yr old daewoo
to lyspooner
jurov: okay. and if fsa gets you,. i'll send it
to
them.
jurov: so
that means 53BTC due on 11 December 2012?
kakobrekla: well ... its not
terribly attractive yet not something
to pass along
jurov: sorry kakobrekla, you're right, i confused it woth
the loan we did w/smickles.
jurov: smikles, before. but i also have > 100k sell orders
there and
the collateral isn't counting
them
smickles: mircea_popescu: you so sure we were calcing
the same
thing?
smickles: damn jurov was
that stat b/f or after our
thing?
kakobrekla: hm, 2.9 is per 14 days or 11
that is remaining
jurov: mircea, no , on 1st dec i am
to repay 102.9
Lyspooner: 2011 was a scary
time
to be in euro
mircea_popescu: for anyone
that still remembers april
times
tho... it was a really scary
time
to be in bitcoin.
jurov: there's final amount shown
too
smickles: on btcjam,
that %, is
that
the
term % or a yearly %?
kakobrekla: jurov if you need 100 btc i can lend it
to you for a month
jurov: kakobrekla, you want longer
term?
smickles: 25% sounds reasonable considering
the recent losses
jurov: kakobrekla, you mean
the loan? of course
Lyspooner: i don't know. with mpoe loaded up short calls, i can't expect mircea
to not mess around with mtgox on final settlement day
smickles: Apr 05 22:50:39 {Cusipzzz}i, for one, welcome our stable bitcoin overlords << lol, good line
to end on
smickles: Lyspooner: you lookin'
to
throw some btc at MPBOR?
jurov: it did not occur
to me
to check
the signature :/ and it's
true user's pubkey is used, so it's necessary
smickles: jurov: you use pympex
too, don't you?
jurov: put my whole opinion
there.
kakobrekla: There were no results matching
the query.
kakobrekla: not what i heard for measuring
trust mp
smickles: and, mircea_popescu, didn't you pledge
to never release control of 50%
the
total shares during
the initial offering?
mircea_popescu: jurov but i
think in a world where absolutely NO OTHER measure exists or is used,
this measure, flawed as it may be, is much better.
mircea_popescu: but anyway : obviously
the value of all items in btc will be more
than
the
total btc.
smickles: shouldn't we be calcing
the free float market cap (or as close as we can get
to it) rather
than implied value?
jurov: mircea, it's
too much uncertainty... and if all major btc companies extrapolated
this way i suspect we'll ended with number several
times beyond btc in circulation
mircea_popescu: why do you
think 14k bitcoins aren't enough
to extrapolate based on ?
jurov: now I guess it's 1-2% at most...
then it's quite exaggeration
to extrapolate mkt value from it
jurov: mircea, how many mpoe shares you actually sold?
the IPO was only 1 promile, and
that was
twice I
think
jurov: i'll pay someday... when i decide it's necessary
to support poor romanian kids
