sina: hey mircea_popescu in the long list of things I have been meaning to ask, wasn't MPex listed on MPex?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-09#1667718 << hurr durr. they've been going on this whole "We shall not name MPEx because it only exists if WE say the name" for 5 years + now. ☝︎
sina: BingoBoingo: how do you get ownership of shares if you don't have an MPex seat tho
BingoBoingo: Well, not exclusively mine. For details see http://mpex.biz/?mpsic=S.QNTR
pete_dushenski: speaking of s.nsa, why does mpex not list website for it ? or for s.mg for that matter ? s.qntr lists.
asciilifeform: and 1,000,001 folx who could be author of 'mpex'.co , sure.
shinohai simply makes mpex.co point wherever he damn well pleases with his specially-crafted hosts file.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: can't be kako, site is too positive about mpex :D
jurov: wtf http://mpex.co/history_of_bitcoin_stock_exchanges.html ☟︎☟︎
Framedragger: whatever my gripes with teh mp-way, /me been personal fan of mpex design and opsec since day 1 ;)
mircea_popescu: Framedragger sane designs (such as you know, mpex has been displaying since 2012 say) do not even care as to what ip.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, but at the cost of, you know, http://trilema.com/2013/why-mpex-is-better-than-fiat-institutions-part-349085-we-dont-use-excel/#selection-31.16-31.118
Framedragger: ^ re. endpoint, oops no need for *challenge*, just a specific format for gpg-signed msg. (this is basically mpex interface, i guess.)
shinohai: New mpex security: S.ASS
asciilifeform: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1837136.msg18324180#msg18324180 >> 'Note back in 2013, MPeX sent me (@AnonyMint) a PM. It was something about his enemy @rpietila who he refers to as "tortilla". Since then Risto has had his laptop hacked, been put in a mental ward and subjected to forced medications, etc..'
mircea_popescu: ie, it's not ACTUALLY WORTH IT for valve ; because they're trying to cater to the imbeciles whoi "but mp, what do you mean mpex seats cost!" and those... have no money.
mircea_popescu: you will be the mpex sex symbol
shinohai: If I ever make a success in adult services and get listed on mpex, can I have S.EX as my symbol ?
a111: Logged on 2017-02-05 00:20 BingoBoingo: lel "A rabbit on a rebel flag? Horrible english? What the hell is this shit? oh god an MPex listing... this blog reads like the bitcoin equivalent of zerohedge"

jurov: because i'm not doing small withdrawals directly from mpex?
a111: Logged on 2017-01-10 21:17 jurov: mircea_popescu: ty for quick mpex service!
jurov: mircea_popescu: ty for quick mpex service! ☟︎
asciilifeform: mpex -- has www. deedbot. etc
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-26#1590742 << and in typical fashion of the utterly imbecile "average joe", the idiots wish to opine about the viability of mpex, where no issuer EVER diluted, and say nice things about pure and simple scams with free dilution a la twocan exchange. ☝︎

asciilifeform: fwiw i definitely wasn't fully 'tuned in' until after the mpex review thing
mod6: <+asciilifeform> but how the hell did i wander into #b-a, i still cannot remember. << you were invited to checkout MPEx right?
mod6: POP QUIZ: How much was the first MPEx fee after the beta period?
mircea_popescu: yes, but "ask.fm has 150mn users" and shopify trades as NYSE:SHOP for 40bux and then some guy wants to discuss things about you know, "MPEx has no volume you have been warned!!11"
pete_dushenski: if you mean the latest mpex debate as referenced in 'what lasts forever', ya the leclerc (pankkake?) feller and i had a little back-n-forth
a111: Logged on 2016-12-16 10:45 Framedragger just discovered http://trilema.com/2012/the-mpex-rota/ - pretty neat. i take it this expensive experiment had been thus discontinued :)

pete_dushenski: mya. dunno why he thinks ~i~ should be tasked with defending mpex instead of presenting his limp challenges here but... ya.
pete_dushenski: http://www.contravex.com/2014/05/11/mpex-vs-the-play-bitcoin-exchanges/#comment-53154 << multi-comment thread between rando and yours truly. mircea_popescu may be (very) mildly interested. looks like vague reader of logs has decided that mpex is no longer a viable business because... trading volume.
asciilifeform finished, afaik, swapping all of the mpex links on nosuchlabs to new .biz
asciilifeform: i've monumentally nfi, why. possibly for historic reasons (not everybody is mpex and happy to have links die every 6 months)
jurov: O.o mpex isn't dead?
phf: i checked b-a log because somebody mentioned activity, a few weeks ago and it's literally the same conversation. i remember he tried directly intervening, "warning" cockli guy i think, and cockli's reaction was "you seem like a crazy dude with an agenda", but i guess a strategy of "mpex is long gong and nobody heard from mp" probably works better
asciilifeform: ( d00d lives in a parallel world where , e.g., mpex is dead, and ready to tell any old-timer randomly reappearing in his chan - as they sometimes do - that it vanished long ago, etc )
mircea_popescu: oh btw - people looking for mpex domains can now use mpex.biz mpex.xyz
asciilifeform: lel re oldtimerz reappearing in ruins of #b-a and kako 'helpfully informing' them 'mpex is dead, mp ran with the money'
thestringpuller: mpex proxies rotating? >> http://archive.is/HYDXX << via link from qntra.net
mats: https://www.rentec.com << heh, the spartan homepage reminds me of mpex
asciilifeform: notice how 'civilians' (reddit folk etc) still react in disbelief when they read about mpex having worked as-described ? they will sooner believe in telekinesis, ufo proctologists abducting 50yo d00dz, divine healings, etc.
mircea_popescu: but the important point here i guess is that mpex is a service ; not a publisher. you're essentially asking "how do i include some pigeons in my book"
Framedragger: or is it not supposed to be reachable by non-mpex-users?
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm putting up a webpage which mentions phuctor, and i want to give reference to S.NSA as the corporation which produced phuctor. how do i link to mpex?
a111: 59379 results for "mpex", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=mpex
Framedragger: !#s mpex
asciilifeform: and, to continue to rain on the parade, if every www site has to be run like mpex, it will cost. and the range of things that can be provided 'for the public', 'for phreeee', will correspondingly shrink.
jurov: and i'd congratulate to 1500 btc mpex seats, as long as someone is actually seen paying :)
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm curious, why don't you do mpex.trilema.com ? or would that link the two explicitly and hence would not be favourable?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo try say http://mpex.biz/ ?
pete_dushenski: mpex missingness probably related to the issues with internetbs.net not accepting btc anymore
mats: http://mpex.biz http://mpex.co http://mpex.re http://mpex.site are all expired
shinohai: mpex.site last time I checked
BingoBoingo: Also anyone recall the current url for mpex web?
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'd imagine making any changes to domain records to be a matter of sending a pgpgram, like you said and like mpex works.
mircea_popescu: the bid is 0.00021367, the ask is 0.0003418, there's no open bids, there's no daily range, the average volume for the past 30 days is 139, worth about four bitcents give or take, or in other words a tiny fraction of qntra';s (MPEX:S.QNTR) 1.1999952 btc.
jurov: mircea_popescu: pls to mpex
mircea_popescu: tis the correct design, what. mpex works the same way
mircea_popescu: note however that the whole "domain is valuable" bullshit this entire scam is predicated on doesn't carry any water. i expired mpex domains, polimedia.us etc. cost =0.
mircea_popescu: then idiots want to know if mpex is for real. not you know, if nyse & nasdaq are.
shinohai: mpex. powered by bees (tm)
mircea_popescu: guy writes trading bot, spends half his time explaining how mpex is broken because he's making a living, has to crowfund a probe. nuts.
adlai: i never got this when dealing with mpex, but mpex moves slowly enough that parallel queries weren't a concern
Framedragger: wasn't the whole point of it that kako disagreed of you attempting to charge bbet money for spending money twice (ironically, zero fee tx will be more difficult with no block size increase - which i'm against, too). that this was not in the gpg contract. so he did not sign bbet statement. and then bbet proceeded to be liquidated. you also disabled his mpex account for an unsigned comment on qntra or wherever which did not breach any clau
Framedragger: ‏‎punkman:flimflams: "oops flushed the orderbook again", "oops mispaid dividends again", "HELLO I AM THE CEO OF BITCOIN, HERE IS THE BITCOIN EXAM, oh what do you mean btc addresses don't keep a balance?" "it's not socialized losses, it's btc cartelisation research" "you were being an asshole so I banned your mpex account"
jurov: mircea_popescu: pls to mpex
pete_dushenski: in other sexy news, the mpex 'speed bump' feature is catching on beyond iex. http://archive.is/0xOrx
asciilifeform: aaaaaand how long has http://www.mpex.ws been a spam farm ?
Framedragger: asciilifeform: trb and mpex don't make themselves easy to be used by everyone. which YES is a great thing. but it's not because an angelic light shines upon them, repelling all evil.
asciilifeform: they aren't flocking to trb, or mpex, etc.
danielpbarron: gabriel should make his case to get listed on mpex
asciilifeform: ( i do not have an mpex acct. )
asciilifeform: mpex proxies are a reasonably good analogy for this.
deedbot: PeterL rated mircea_popescu +1 << Runs MPEx and Eulora and stuff.
mircea_popescu: nah. the original colored coins was a "let's do mpex over bitcoin network because mp is something you can replace by a napkin sketch of a protocol"
gribble: felipelalli was last seen in #trilema 3 weeks, 5 days, 11 hours, 44 minutes, and 37 seconds ago: <felipelalli> mircea_popescu: why mpex isn't listed on Google anymore? https://www.google.com.br/#safe=off&q=mpex I just realized that yesterday, is that purposeful?
mircea_popescu: anyway ; it's pleasant to see fiat exchanges migrate to being more like mpex.
thestringpuller: trinque: lemme rephrase; MPEx::Bitcion as X::USD what is X? Obviously no bank qualifies there.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski a guy by that name was active back in 2011-2012 ; he made some corrections to mpex faq verbiage ; we've not kept in touch hence nor have i heard anything of him for a few years.
mircea_popescu: and amusingly enough, it would be perfectly fine for mpex, or any other "financial" site built correctly.
mircea_popescu: specifically in 2013 MPEx gave a sort of soft ultimatum to the public : either you rally behind us, and push the world into the future, or you rally behind either of these two options and get raped.
mircea_popescu: back when mp was saying this while mpex was a public company, the idiots knew better.
asciilifeform: because, e.g., mpex had not
shinohai builds a printing press that makes wptrons and gets listed on mpex
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: are you familiar with MPEx CDO? And how the derpage was so bad it was like a 60% default rate.
shinohai: mpex.site?
PeterL: mpex.co not responding, what is the correct tld?
shinohai: derp shares may rise again on mpex yet
BingoBoingo: I like the title tag on new mpex.ws

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-27#1510297 << probably because google isn't listed on mpex. ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-20#1506889 << he wanted a repl that can shit graphics. which is something that to this very day is ~monopoly of a gargantuan closed commercial item, 'mathematica'. except that most 'i want a graphical repl' folks don't know this, and think that their imitations (which are roughly what glbse was to mpex) are the real thing. ☝︎
