jurov: How a bitcoin technical question inevitably goes political: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=144895.0
jurov: funny how one can get psyched about it
DeadWeasel: christ, 17 pages on that post already?
DeadWeasel: i saw it start and just ignored it
DeadWeasel: seems like the right call
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 4167 @ 0.00063036 = 2.6267 BTC [+]
jurov: well, it shouldn't worry me as a prospective btc banker at all
jurov: but i just don't like having 1M limit and transactions with $20 fees
jurov: as some "members" imagine
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 3600 @ 0.00063036 = 2.2693 BTC [+]
jurov: cause they want to play with their nebulous off-blockchain schemes
jurov: they even propose to get funding from bitcoin foundation for it
jurov: as if it was more important than improving the BTC protocol itself
kakobrekla: makes me wanna spam the blockchain
jurov: they even told me that instead of having IPv4 with 64bit addresses proper and thus avoiding NAT,
jurov: IPv6 should have come sooner?
jurov: kako, we should just join btc foundation and introduce some healthy reason there
jurov: fortunately gavin has his wit together, but he seems alone
kakobrekla: hrm
mircea_popescu: <jurov> fortunately gavin has his wit together, but he seems alone << this.
mircea_popescu: being the bitcoin lead developer is part time kindergarten headmaster.
jurov: sauce: http://bitcoinstats.com/irc/bitcoin-dev/logs/2013/02/21#l5998176
jurov: ^ unlike btctalk, peeps are quite intelligent, you may find it bearable to read it
kakobrekla: phantomcircuit 1GiB blocks doesn't seem... practical
kakobrekla: yeah
kakobrekla: well no difference on the end
kakobrekla: if its 10 blocks 1 gig or 1 10 gig
kakobrekla: you can have n blocks in a minute
kakobrekla: so not really a fix

DeadWeasel: blockchain takes up 7.6GB on my pc.
jurov: don't you have terabyte hdd?
DeadWeasel: no, that's diablo, I have a 500gb and 60gb ssd
DeadWeasel: coupel of externals if I need
DeadWeasel: I get the best bang for the buck, and older drives are sellig cheap
DeadWeasel: would like to upgrade my ssd, but I'm not sure the OS will reinstall correctly on the the ssd.
DeadWeasel: Do you know if remastersys is a true ISO installation after you create it?
DeadWeasel: or does it retain partitions?
DeadWeasel: nevermind, that's for #linux
DeadWeasel: brg
Diablo-D3: I dont have a 1tb hd
DeadWeasel: brb
DeadWeasel: you have 2tb
jurov: lol
Diablo-D3: I have 2 400gb in raid 1, 4x750 in raid 5, and thats now being switched over to 2x2tb raid 1 and Ill have 2 spare 750s
DeadWeasel: send me a 750
Diablo-D3: and btw, are you on 0.8.0?
Diablo-D3: you have two copies of the chain
Diablo-D3: one leveldb, one bdb
jurov: i have one 1.5TB 5400rpm "WD Green" and two bitcoinds happily on top of it
Diablo-D3: you dont need the other one anymore
DeadWeasel: crikey, does that mean 14gb of blockchain?
DeadWeasel: oh, I have two copies now?
Diablo-D3: DeadWeasel: no, the blockchain isnt that big to begin with
DeadWeasel: why did I have 7.6 gb in my bitcoin qt directory?
Diablo-D3: okay I lied
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 2 @ 0.68 = 1.36 BTC [-]
Diablo-D3: apparently the chain IS 7.3gb now
Diablo-D3: what the fuck
DeadWeasel: damn
DeadWeasel: yeah
Diablo-D3: $ du -sh .bitcoin
Diablo-D3: 7.3G .bitcoin
Diablo-D3: when the fuck did that happen
DeadWeasel: i uninstalled that shit, I had to do a backup
DeadWeasel: i'll get it back later, thinking of multibit
jurov: while you were playing satoshidice
Diablo-D3: it was only like 3gb a month or tow ago
DeadWeasel: anyone used that?
Diablo-D3: jurov: I hate SD
kakobrekla: also on a side note, funny, i remember people saying "we are paying banks to hold a number in a db, ridiculus, use btc, be your own bank"
Diablo-D3: its bloating the chain with trash
kakobrekla: well there ya go.
iz: mo transactions, mo problems...
Diablo-D3: I wish I was friedcat
DeadWeasel: SD is doing that.
Diablo-D3: I'd solo mine and refuse tx for SD
DeadWeasel: but what options is there? it's an economy.
DeadWeasel: what do you solo mine with?
jurov: what are you all on? i'll happily accept 1TB blockchain.. its still little price for btc freedom
Diablo-D3: DeadWeasel: I dont solo anything, I use p2pool
DeadWeasel: oh, i saw that wrong
jurov: you really want btc to be usable off a floppy with 1200 baud connection?
Diablo-D3: jurov: becuase if SD keeps continuing at this rate, thats 1GB a year
DeadWeasel: that would be hilarious.
jurov: 1GB an year, go on!
DeadWeasel: my commodore 64 hashing the blockchain. 1 block every 15 years
jurov: we can manage 1TB a year, it's 2013!
jurov: someone is stuck in 1990's
DeadWeasel: it's true, storage technology is keeping pace
jborkl: I got a 32gb flash drive for 9 bucks
DeadWeasel: where?
DeadWeasel: jborkl^
DeadWeasel: you keep your cold wallet on there?
jborkl: with my external hdd, a coupon extra from best buy
DeadWeasel: nice
jborkl: storage is cheap
DeadWeasel: it is.
DeadWeasel: i just don't need anymore.
DeadWeasel: i've got all of 170GB including OS and video/music/docs/dev stuff
DeadWeasel: lean mean machine
DeadWeasel: but I'll glady take a 32GB key for $9
DeadWeasel: I feel like there is a manipulator keepng the price just under 30 right now
DeadWeasel: for the weekend, then use the lemmings and his own power to push past 30.31.32

DeadWeasel: coingenuity: you there?
Diablo-D3: Im thinking about selling my 100btc
DeadWeasel: why is my invoice from Cheyanne Wyoming, but you say you are all sleeping as if you ar eon the other side of the world?
Diablo-D3: and buy some shit I want
DeadWeasel: Diablo-D3: I feel you.
jurov: midnightmagic, what do you meant?
DeadWeasel: I sold to cover my investment, so my money is out, my other 150BTC is all profit if I sell
DeadWeasel: but I don't know what to do
coingenuity: DeadWeasel: yes?
coingenuity: what's cooking
Diablo-D3: DeadWeasel: people will probably bitch that Im stealing from dmc, but I dont give two fucks
Diablo-D3: its my money, and the money didnt come from dmc
Diablo-D3: so they can suck my nuts
DeadWeasel: coingenuity: Cheyanne WY
DeadWeasel: but you all sleep during the day?
coingenuity: no?
midnightmagic: jurov: What do you mean, what do I mean? I'm not trying to argue or anything, I'm just saying IPv6 kinda sucks for what it's become, and I'm not surprised at all it's not installed everywhere right now.
DeadWeasel: Weird, you said you were all sleeping when I sent my emails. I'm just making sure my shipments is coming from outside the US
DeadWeasel: BTW, thank you for INVOICE, makes my taxes much easier
DeadWeasel: you da man
DeadWeasel: and for putting up with me. I will likely work with you again. Also, if you have a particular area you need a review in, let me know.
coingenuity: NP, that's why i made it that way(with a lot of USD numeracy) :D
coingenuity: your order comes from the USA, but we ship worldwide with no issues excepting some rare countries
coingenuity: and with special customs forms to make sure you don't get charged taxes, if that is the case in your country
DeadWeasel: I see, that bitctalk thread was worrisome, felt as if it wsa coming ex-USA.
DeadWeasel: you might want to clarify on that thread that you are US based.
jurov: midnightmagic, i see, but it's not so obvious. you could have meant something "ipv6 needs nat too" :)
mircea_popescu: what's wrong with nat anyway ?
pigeons: fuck nat and fuck those people that want ipv6 nat
DeadWeasel: Also, never found anything in my spam. So gmail might be filtering on a higher level.
mircea_popescu: o.o
DeadWeasel: shitty.
coingenuity: DeadWeasel: we're pretty verbose about it, not sure why people get a different impression, but yeah- always ship from the usa, no matter what
DeadWeasel: fuck IPV6 altogether, the protocol is still shit
coingenuity: DeadWeasel: even set up our distribution network such that we're close to the biggest airports in the world for expedited global processing ;)
coingenuity: but yeah, i agree= it looks like a high-level filter to me
DeadWeasel: coingenuity: that's awesome. The most recent thread doesn't make that clear, and new customers will find that first.
DeadWeasel: I will update that thread since you've worked so closely with me.
jurov: mircea_popescu behind nat you are second class net citizen...just cuz some dumbass misallocated the bits
coingenuity: DeadWeasel: thanks, we do our best to be communicative despite being a small company with people working 20 hour days, lmao
mircea_popescu: jurov i don't get it ?
jurov: you share ip address with other users and nobody can connect to your computer directly, you have to initiate the connection or it has to involve third party
mircea_popescu: the fact that nobody can connect directly to my terminal is perfect.
mircea_popescu: why should they, why would they.
coingenuity: mircea_popescu: but i want to!
coingenuity: >.>
mircea_popescu: and i don't share the connection at all. i own the ip ranges and i use nat routers pretty much everwhere
jurov: mircea_popescu, firewall is for that purpose
mircea_popescu: lol coingenuity
jurov: mircea_popescu i pay 4 euros/mo for ip addy
mircea_popescu: jurov i trust a router more than some software solution.

mircea_popescu: well sure. but a router is an inexpensive, widely available, easily deployable well specified item
mircea_popescu: it's perfect, i don't see whythe hate.
pigeons: nothing wrong with routers, for routing.
jurov: it's like... when i got my first non-dialup connection (by putting computer with wificard to attic and scanning the ether lol)
mircea_popescu: well sure, as a solution to the ip limit problem they're kludgy
jurov: it was fascinating i can put anything on the computer
jurov: and anyone in the world can come and see it, use it
jurov: just, freedom
mircea_popescu: ya well.
jurov: behing nat you cant do it
mircea_popescu: i don't want to do it.
mircea_popescu: and i specifically get non-wireless routers at that.
jurov: cuz you can pay $$ to get the server elsewhere
mircea_popescu: the isp ppl were looking at me like i was a talking bear or something
jurov: my crazy ideas like public linux shell server aren't welcome at any hosting
jurov: at least not like at such price it earns
mircea_popescu: well wtf, why run a public shell
jurov: just for fun... and being able to do stuff from behind comapny firewall
jurov: that doesn't allow ssh

jurov: and were they so competent and serious in their 20s, too?
jurov: heck, even 30s. lol
mircea_popescu: actually most hackers give up hacking by the time they're 30
mircea_popescu: move on to more respectable endeavours like playing games and shit.

midnightmagic: jurov: Nope. I made a comment about it while you were talking with petertodd but I think it was lost in the scrollback.
jurov: ah now i remember
jurov: but i think wherther ipv6 is good or not, was besides the point
jurov: the point is, to allow extending capacity currently well working thing while it is possible
jurov: otherwise kludgy hacks ensue
DeadWeasel: anybody have any ideas for my shit site I put up with no original content? http://zeroconfirmations.com
DeadWeasel: I figure i could review all my dealings with bitocin related businesses
DeadWeasel: or something
DeadWeasel: help a brotha out with ideas
jurov: bitcoin business reviews would not be bad
pigeons: DeadWeasel: fake quote alert on the ben franklin
DeadWeasel: haha thanks pigeons
DeadWeasel: you never know with that shit
DeadWeasel: how did you know?
DeadWeasel: i'll deal with it later.
DeadWeasel: the Woman is yelling at me. Send me Ideas, they stored in the log
pigeons: cause its the declaration of independence not the constitution that mentions "pursuit of happiness (property)"
pigeons: well, really cause he never said that
jurov: quote Linus Torvalds instead: Bitcoin is user friendly. It just chooses who his friends are.
kakobrekla: DeadWeasel, you can change anon to pseudonymous to be more correct
jurov: or "He Who Shall Not Be Named"
kakobrekla: DeadWeasel and id put drugs on that list on the last place if needs to be
jurov: and third row should be "Virtual Private Shows"

DeadWeasel: my idea anyway
BitHub: ASIC.COOP owns a 3 BitForce Single SC order. The order date is July 14th 2012. - and they want 1btc a share?
DeadWeasel: reputation based currency, reputation directory
BitHub: are they serious?

burnside: deadweasel, I'd be interested in a review of btct.co
burnside: if you've used the other exchanges a bit, I'm always looking for ways to improve.
DeadWeasel: Only bitfunder and setup an account on btct.co
DeadWeasel: it would take me a week, since I ahve a full time job.
DeadWeasel: But I am going with the review angle. Just got ot sort it out. and the rest of the HTML
DeadWeasel: burnside: ^^
DeadWeasel: usagi: I'll check it out, add it to the list
burnside: sounds great, let me know what you come up with.
burnside: definitely check out cryptostocks too
burnside: and coinbr.com
DeadWeasel: it's on my to do list now.
burnside: usagi I think everyone has quality control issues. it's a huge challenge for all the exchanges.

burnside: That would definitely help
burnside: I was thinking about having a requirement that you actually have been in business for at least 6 months before listing
DeadWeasel: listing fees should be higher
burnside: at least for the stocks and bonds
DeadWeasel: make it an escrow kind of hting.
burnside: The escrow side of things I've thought a lot about. The problem is that if the goal is for them to raise funds, well then escrow completely negates the benefit of raising funds.
burnside: what's the point of selling shares if the company can't use the cash
DeadWeasel: i see. well, if they want to list, they have to put up the trust cash
DeadWeasel: they will make much more if htey are worht it. If they do well, it is returned
DeadWeasel: this is the real world. it can't always be run by the seat of our pants
pigeons: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Contracts#Example_3:_Assurance_contracts
burnside: one of the things we considered early on was having trading fees higher on the new assets. would deter traders who are not confident in the new asset.
DeadWeasel: to safeguard your good name as an exchange, that is totally worth it.
DeadWeasel: even if you have only 5 assets... it's better than 15 with 10 bad
DeadWeasel: more money for those 5
DeadWeasel: because more trust, more per person, maybe more people if the trust is high enough
DeadWeasel: quality over quantity, if you can prove that, you will be the #1 exchange.
DeadWeasel: proving that means high standards
burnside: that's very true
DeadWeasel: mirceaP is not nice, but he keeps out the riff-raff pretty well
burnside: that's largely why I put together the moderation system
DeadWeasel: i will have to check it out, sorry I haven't yet. Will do very soon.
burnside: hoping that XX voters in the community will be more eyes and ears into scams than just myself
DeadWeasel: cannot rely on that. You can trust them, but you MUST VERIFY with your own investigation, personal communcation
DeadWeasel: TRUST, but VERIFY
DeadWeasel: without that, btc users are fucked
DeadWeasel: all of us
DeadWeasel: and it's very difficult on here
DeadWeasel: OTC is good start, poor execution and easily games, but it's children may be better.
DeadWeasel: gotta see that for myself to even understand it
burnside: controls in which sense?
pigeons: burnside did sniff out a user transferring shares for the purpose of voting to get an asset approved and made appropriate changes to the system
DeadWeasel: the whole asset thing i feel can be gamed by someone with enough cash and know-how
DeadWeasel: ont he small exchanges, anyway
burnside: creating the account to vote you now have to wait 7 days, not impossible, but spendy and a pita
pigeons: i assume people will go to the url in your contract to look for the other side of the story

burnside: I'm going to implement something that will show the public each mods vote history as well. it'll still be anon, but if patterns don't match up, then some abuse will get caught
burnside: working on a way to respond to the comments too, it'll be a generic shoutbox kind of thing, but should help out.
burnside: yeah, I'm not going to be a judge at a podium determining who passes and fails. I don't think I have the necessary skills to be fair about it.
burnside: I don't. I think just like GLBSE, it's going to end up being a fatal flaw in some of the other exchanges.
burnside: I do however feel like a pool of people with a vested interest in the well being of the exchange will do a better job.
burnside: Surely the decision to list or not list an asset on the NYSE does not come down to just one person. I need to look into it more, but I'm almost certain there's some kind of board that gets together and works things out.
burnside: Of course, money talks, but you get the idea.
burnside: I have the lawyer, that's why it's setup the way it is.
burnside: Belize I just have to do an annual report for taxes.
burnside: The rest of the reporting I'll probably be able to code into the exchange so you could pull a report automatically if you're a current shareholder.
burnside: We'll need to grow significantly before we can afford auditing, but it would definitely be a good problem to have. ;)
burnside: Yeah, I like that feature, very cool.
burnside: I get nervous about stuff like that though. 5 BTC and a user could attach a doc with a virus in it, guaranteed to reach all of the site mods. Dangerous.
burnside: Ahhh, I gotcha, that makes sense.
BitHub: there's two phrases that scare the shit out of me "Hi, we're the government and we're here to help you with your business"
burnside: The exchange fees for the asset issuers is a vector I hadn't considered. I'll definitely think about it.
burnside: yeah, jpeg, png, pdf, they all have attack vectors unfortunately
burnside: so while I love the feature, and would love to implement it, you kind of get a feel for the things I have to take into account.
burnside: I need like two different versions of a command line AV scanner in place first. heh.
burnside: even that wouldnt' catch hand-crafted attacks

Bowjob: why dont we get warren buffet here and ask him if btc will go up or down
Diablo-D3: warren buffet doesnt give a shit about forex
Diablo-D3: he invests in value not made up shit
DeadWeasel: Diablo-D3: damn right
Diablo-D3: so, according to goxlive
Diablo-D3: it'd cost a million to go to 36
Diablo-D3: which is only 25k btc
Diablo-D3: but to go to 26 it'd cost 40k btc, worth 1.2 million
Diablo-D3: so I think we're still going up
Bugpowder: Deep
Bugpowder: nope
Bugpowder: going down
Bugpowder: u no wat wuld be so fune
Bugpowder: if we crashed to 15 tonight
kakobrekla: well i admit it would be funny if we crashed hard now
Bugpowder: and my puts made money
Bugpowder: plz
Bowjob: no~
Bugpowder: somehow i doubt it
Bowjob: we are going to the moon
Bugpowder: so when do you start buying again/
Bugpowder: 25
DeadWeasel: someone big is still manipulating, possibly others too
Bugpowder: 20? 15?
Bugpowder: manipulating?
Bugpowder: do you mean trying to sell shares?
Bugpowder: err coins?
Bowjob: buying single digits!!
DeadWeasel: i mean manipulating. pump dump. then settle the price for a while, pump dump, settle the price. using bots, and everything else illegal in SEC markets
Bugpowder: lol
mircea_popescu: ugh.
Bugpowder: none of that is illegal
mircea_popescu: you know, that makes absolutely no sense.
Bugpowder: 2) markets do not need that to display their dynamics
DeadWeasel: mircea_popescu: it makes perfect sense.
Bowjob: Yes a dead bear!
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu nothign here does anymore :(
DeadWeasel: kakobrekla: ever more correct you are
DeadWeasel: i just have theories
DeadWeasel: just like the rest of you
DeadWeasel: twats
mircea_popescu: DeadWeasel listen. the theory whereby it is feasible to buy up a commodity in order to sell it later is nonsense.
kakobrekla: spam detected, manually.
mircea_popescu: you will spend more "fixing" the price than you'll make selling.
mircea_popescu: people keep trying. people always fail.
DeadWeasel: proof?
mircea_popescu: most recently the notable silver market cornering, read up on that. it wasted a billion dollar fortune

Bugpowder: ok read wikipedia
DeadWeasel: wiki, i can work with that, but none of it applies to BTC

DeadWeasel: meteors do not
DeadWeasel: you should know, it's your business
mircea_popescu: well anyway, this entire "someone is mainipulating by buying to inflate the price to sell later" stuff is the economic equivalent of the perpetuum mobile machine.
mircea_popescu: you can't pull yourself up by your britches.
DeadWeasel: no, but you can manipulate, or the SEC wouldn't exist for legit markets
DeadWeasel: haha, usagi, you were there

DeadWeasel: it used to be.
DeadWeasel: not anyomore.
DeadWeasel: but the priciple applies
DeadWeasel: all the institutions have be co=opted by twats
DeadWeasel: that's why i like the blockchain
DeadWeasel: ain't no co-opting of that
Bugpowder: http://images.uncyc.org/en/3/3e/LeeWall_Destroy.gif
mircea_popescu: ok, ok, but natural laws still apply.
DeadWeasel: can't argue with that

mircea_popescu: error4733 you know one of these days its going to go well under ev.
mircea_popescu: it has to.
Ukto: BitFunder is now trading backed AUD/USD/CAD. https://bitfunder.com/asset/FIAT.USD for example.
Ukto: Have a nice day.,
error4733: not with small bet
error4733: you can't beat house edge on long term
error4733: obv with 3 whales & a bad run... it's possible
mircea_popescu: listen, you can't beat house edge on INFINITE term.
mircea_popescu: it's possible to beat it on a term of any arbitrary finite length
error4733: sure, but more small bet mean you reduce variance i'm a math genius, i know
mircea_popescu: :p
jurov: hi Ukto, what's your plan with FIAT.USD? you will offer the shares yourself?
Ukto: I dont offer the shares
Ukto: you do
Ukto: or rather, any user
Ukto: any user can deposit their USD from weex into bitfunder
Ukto: which are auto converted to 1 share FIAT.USD per $1 USD
jurov: what's the advantage over buying bitcoins directly?
Ukto: this is buying fiats
Ukto: with bitcoins
Ukto: not buying bitcoins
Ukto: :P
Ukto: these basicaly make a reverse market
Ukto: withdrawing any number of shares of FIAT.USD (or other currencies) to WeExchange automatically converts X shares to X dollars of that currency
mircea_popescu: so basically like an exchange.
Ukto: yes, its a reverse exchange
Ukto: for those assets
mjr__: guys! only $969 to go :)
mircea_popescu: ok, so you're merging bitfunder and what was it called, uex ?
Ukto: weex
Ukto: and not merging
mjr__: lol jk
Ukto: :P
Ukto: BF is just taking more advantage of the merchant system offered by weex
jurov: i mean, selling FIAT.USD is fully equivalent to buying bitcoins, no?
Ukto: sure. You can look at it from that point of view.
Ukto: You could also say buying FIAT.USD is selling bitcoins.
Ukto: But in fact, you are buying USD with btc.
Ukto: If you follow the terminology.
Ukto: :D
Ukto: Either way, someone asked for it, i said sure why not, and did it.
ThickAsThieves: so it's an exchange on exchange
Ukto: No... it's an exchange.
ThickAsThieves: :)
Ukto: No one said it could only be 'assets'
Ukto: and the currencies ARE assets in this form
ThickAsThieves: will you also make it possible to buy shares of any stock with USD?
Ukto: they DO have a name.. its not liek they are done to the cent
Ukto: No
Ukto: You cannot buy shares of an asset, with shares from another asset
ThickAsThieves: why not just support USD within BF?
ThickAsThieves: directly
Ukto: Legal reasons.
ThickAsThieves: word
Ukto: also, BitFunder is not there to support USD, etc
Ukto: it is there to support BTC.
BitHub: word fiat scares me
Ukto: If asked "What do you do with mined bitcoins?" 'I can BUY USD with it.'
Ukto: That is an accurate statement.
Ukto: Rather than the previous limitation of 'I can SELL it for USD'
ThickAsThieves: seems like a thin court defense, but i know nothing of the laws
Ukto: defense for what?
Ukto: and what court?
ThickAsThieves: well you said not supporting USD for legal reasons
ThickAsThieves: but this isnt much different
Ukto: Correct.
ThickAsThieves: like i said, i'm no lawyer
ThickAsThieves: but it's effectively the same
Ukto: You misunderstand.
Ukto: BitFunder will not let you hold USD as an eWallet.
Ukto: to use/spend as you please
Ukto: you do not have USD in your account on BF
ThickAsThieves: but 1 FIATUSD = $1 constantly
Ukto: you have shares that may be traded out for USD by another entity
Ukto: yes
Ukto: we are not breaking any eWallet laws
Ukto: you cant spend FIATUSD can you?
ThickAsThieves: although i suppose i could sell 1 FIATUSD for more or less than $1 worth of BTC
Ukto: the market can valuate the usd aginst the BTC however it wants
Ukto: as it does currently.
ThickAsThieves: word
Ukto: My comment about legal reasons, was ment to be very broad, not specific. :)
ThickAsThieves: is this the only asset exchange that has somethng like this?
BitHub: so if i have a few g's in a certain currency can i float it as an asset onbf?
Ukto: Yes.
BitHub: of
Ukto: BitHub: you could try.
Ukto: I wont stop you
BitHub: is this kind of what this is? i've been following but a bit lost
Ukto: The diffrence is that people can instantly exchange the FIAT.*'s for real currency via BF/Weex
Ukto: for example, on BF, if you goto the transactions page
BitHub: ahh okey so instead of sending btc back to weex i can send these fiat.usd or buy em and it'll instantly show up as fiat on weex
Ukto: you will see you can withdraw AUD,CAD,USD shares
Ukto: yes
Ukto: you can deposit 'shares' from weex of any currency, or withdraw them
BitHub: cool
BitHub: only these shares or all the ones on bf?
Ukto: yes.
Ukto: for example, if you have 10 AUD in weex
Ukto: you can deposit it into BF for 10 FIAT.AUD shares
kakobrekla: ;;bc,convert eur
gribble: 1 BTC = 31.29999 U.S. dollars = 23.6941635 Euros
Ukto: you can then place them for sale at whatever rate per AUD you want.
Ukto: if I buy those 10, I can choose to withdraw them to weex, and have 10 AUD in weex.
BitHub: nice
BitHub: so when you going to hit up all the countries that have a closed exchanged? :P
BitHub: that would be pretty amazing
Ukto: now think about that, with the big project for BF I am working in. ;)

mod6: ThickAsThieves: the diffiulty went up that much or just the btc spot price?

ThickAsThieves: Est % Change
mircea_popescu: jurov i find that so odd, im still measuring the output at like 27th

jurov: and not difficulty but hashrate to be exact.
ThickAsThieves: i'm missing something, but why would the hashrate change so much overnight?
mod6: maybe the asics made it out of tennekey
ThickAsThieves: but it went down
jurov: it does normally, it's variance
jurov: miners get more successful in finding blocks -> hashrate increas is inferred
ThickAsThieves: ah i see
pigeons: "he reason I take the time to type out a response like that is because I enjoy treating people I don’t know like they’re actual human beings, take them seriously and so forth."
pigeons: who said that?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves estimating hashrate is a very noisy process
mod6: mircea_popescu just did in his blog
jurov: i don't think bitcoincharts meticulusly gathers stats from the pools how many hashes got computed actually
mircea_popescu: there's no actual way to measure it
ThickAsThieves: i was forgetting about the "luck" aspect i guess
mod6: well, "just" meaning like an hour ago in here: (09:58) < mircea_popescu> http://trilema.com/2013/least-likely-to-succeed-character-the-upseller/
swhitt: it's a poisson process
swhitt: you can estimate what lambda is by the number of occurrences per unit time
jurov: dunno if it's a poisson.. we just infer from very few data points
ThickAsThieves: so does the difficulty prediction get more stable the closer to the end of the current diff level?
swhitt: and the difficulty adjustment is to get lambda back to the average time of 10 minutes
jurov: if the pools exported stats about work submitted, that would be more reliable
mircea_popescu: its a poisson process by definition neh ?
swhitt: yes it's a poisson process by definitions
mircea_popescu: jurov there's no practical way for the pools to do it either, not as hashes
mircea_popescu: they could perhaps report shares, but there's issues with that too (i am told, i don't really understand this)
swhitt: it would be more reliable but you have 20160 datapoints
swhitt: good enough for gubment work
jurov: lol
jcpham: normalize it, same chart
swhitt: mircea_popescu: well, each pool has a different difficulty for the shares
mircea_popescu: exactly.
jurov: the pools must have a way to measure the work semi-precisely.. to be able to sanely compute payouts
swhitt: and many pools adjust diff for each user
mircea_popescu: ya hta'ts what i meant, they use the per-user diff thing
jurov: in the end difficulty really only takes into account really issued blocks, not the work behind them... so the point is moot
mircea_popescu: probably wuile's estimates are the better thing to go by

lyspooner: oh, mircea_popescu, i see you already posted a comment on that site
mod6: yeah, no one really gives a shit about government until it gets in the way of feeding yourself and your family.
mod6: then the torches+pitch-forks come out.
mircea_popescu: lyspooner i have ?
mircea_popescu: i mean i did just now
lyspooner: gwern right?
iz: what's that mtgox page that shows bid ask walls?
mod6: (11:15) < mircea_popescu> mod6 ya but against the machine ? i imagine it'll be more against each other. << not sure this can be avoided any more. people are wholly divided.
mircea_popescu: no ?
jurov: iz ,mtgoxlive.com
mod6: I guess I hope that people can come together and clean house entirely at all levels of government.
iz: i'm thinking of that static page..
mircea_popescu: never gonna happen mod6.
mod6: I would think that all politics are local, so it just depends on where you're at. But there will be two sides.
mircea_popescu: romanians for instance had a much better shot in 1989, and still we didn't round them up and shoot the lot.
mircea_popescu: which i still say would have been the correct solution.
mod6: you did get the president and his wife thought right?
jurov: exactly
mircea_popescu: mod6 ya.
mod6: *nod* i remember that.
mircea_popescu: well, the president and the vice president or w/e
jurov: mod6, forget the president.. here whole secret service turned into "entrepreneurs"
mod6: ah.
mircea_popescu: wasn't on the grounds of being the wife, was on the grounds of being pretty much the #2
mod6: ahh i see.
mod6: i remember it on tv. it was like, quick trial, then outback to the woodshed.
mircea_popescu: on christmas eve
mod6: Ahh thats right!
mircea_popescu: half hour before abolishing the deathpenalty.
jurov: mod6, and the same will happen everywhere... intelligent people will see the system as unsustainable, they'll plan exit routes accordingly
mod6: merry christmas, you are free.
mircea_popescu: the trial was a monstrosity tho.
mod6: i don't remember the details.. i guess I was only 9.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2011/procesul-ceausescu/ there's the full thing adnotated. (in romanian)
mod6: oh cool. :)
mircea_popescu: possibly the worst kangoroo court i ever saw.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 11450 @ 0.0006434 = 7.3669 BTC [+]
mod6: yeah, it was def. a kangoroo deal, i do remember that. I think they typically are after the revolutionaries take over.
mircea_popescu: ya but this was a brand apart.
mircea_popescu: the judge was prosecuting from the bench for crying out loud
mod6: oh.. yeah. that doesn't seem like it should make sense. couldn't the people put a good enough case together?
mircea_popescu: nope.
mircea_popescu: you couldn't find five people who could actually argue a case atthe time.
mircea_popescu: and i mean that literally.
mod6: well, that happens sometimes. im not sure that we have a lot of lawyers who could successfully prosecute any of the banksters or government officials who've broken the law.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, it was something like Francis Biddle or whoever being Indian and going "you're a bad man, you're a very very bad man" at Goebbels.
mod6: i mean, it is a raquette<sp?> and a mob of sorts after all.
mircea_popescu: racket ?
mircea_popescu: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VN29X2HCKpU this guy.
jurov: mircea, and you think if you started to shot communists, would that happen anywhere near accurately and effectively?
jurov: better not think about it
mod6: yeah, for some reason i thought the crime related racket had a different speling.
mod6: *spelling... damn i suck at spelling
mircea_popescu: jurov anyone who ever worked for either the party or the state, bang. simple solution.
mircea_popescu: be left with half the population maybe, and a clear point in mind. don't do that.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 15657 @ 0.0006434 = 10.0737 BTC [+]
mod6: hmm.. yeah there are a lot of people who work in goverment here, and its getting larger.
jurov: hm, last time such thing happened with any success was probably when israelites fled egypt
mod6: it used to be that you didn't want to work for government ever, unless you were already rich and "heard the call of duty"
mircea_popescu: hey, im not saying it's practical.
jurov: and torah was written by winning side anyway
mod6: now its like people aspire to work for big bro.
mod6: its crazy.
mircea_popescu: it never is practical.
mod6: (11:29) < jurov> mod6, and the same will happen everywhere... intelligent people will see the system as unsustainable, they'll plan exit routes accordingly << some might.
mod6: people are waking up to all of this (four years later I'll add) but there is so much disinformation out there... think frog in pot
jurov: not might, they will do. and even if not, in the chaos the'yll have advantage of web of contacts.

mod6: and since this is like the matrix, anyone who has any wealth left defends the system.
mod6: they're so hoplessly dependant upon easy credit and the system they'll fight to defend it.
mod6: until it all comes to a screeching hault.
mod6: then RATM
lyspooner: mod6, what timeline do you expect this to happen
jurov: mod6, read this: http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/060105_soviet_lessons.shtml
jurov: and get inspired. some things will come to halt, some do not.
mod6: lyspooner: i figure 3 years or less.
mod6: as soon as they cut off the SNAP cards.
jurov: What happens when a modern economy collapses, and the complex society it supports disintegrates? A look at a country that has recently undergone such an experience can be most educational.
jurov: it's quite long but i thoroughly enjoyed it
mircea_popescu: jurov it will be horrible for many of the tense spots. new york, largely boston, most of california
mircea_popescu: the midwest will be mostly fine, even make a pretty penny.
jurov: maybe. barring any serious climate problems
mircea_popescu: the problem with california is water really.
mircea_popescu: the problems with new york are too many to list.
Bugpowder: Whelp.... Guess I shouldn't be moving to LA
mod6: yeah, they wanted me to move to mountain view this year. i was like "LOL yeah right..."
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder it's a tense place to be in, if shtf.
Bugpowder: oh boy
Bugpowder: big wall
Bugpowder: at 31 now
Bugpowder: Well... I don't think the fan will be hit
Bugpowder: Time to buy some fresh real estate in downtown Santa Monica
mod6: hmmm.
Bugpowder: and ride the next asset bubble
mod6: Maybe I'm way off and this comedy will continue for 50 years...
Bugpowder: while you guys are all stressing about the end of the system. I'm going ride it up again.
mod6: all ponzi schemes do come to an end though...
mod6: Bugpowder: enjoy it while it lasts dude.
Bugpowder: yes but there are many ways it could play out
mod6: but when the music stops, I hope you're not long.
Bugpowder: Are we talking about global debt crisis or bitcoin prices, BTW?
Bugpowder: I came in late
mod6: hhaha, even if you are and your portfolio is worth 100bn, you won't be able to buy 6 eggs with that.
Bugpowder: uhhh....
Bugpowder: no
mod6: lol no!?
mod6: think zimbabwe
Bugpowder: yes
Bugpowder: how is that relevant?
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder topic was us collapse not btc.
mod6: im like wtf
mircea_popescu: and ftr i didn't start it.
mod6: ok i gotta get some thing to eat.
mod6: brb.
mod6: i started it.
mod6: bbs.
Bugpowder: short term top?
Bugpowder: in BTC?
DeadWeasel: sounds like society collapse
mircea_popescu: the end of the world is nigh!
mircea_popescu: eat your girlfriends and fuck your wine for that's all you take with you!
Bugpowder: The society collapse narrative is really driven by people that want to sell you gold, guns and ammo.
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder nah
mircea_popescu: the society collapse narrative has been a mainstay of human culture for as long as such existed
Bugpowder: yah
Bugpowder: ok
Bugpowder: tru
mircea_popescu: it was discussed in the same terms and with the same motivs in like 1400
mircea_popescu: we have records.
Bugpowder: instead of sacrificing people to the volcano
Bugpowder: to stave off destruction
Bugpowder: buy gold and bury it in your backyard
Bugpowder: or bitcoins
Bugpowder: buy bitcoins
mircea_popescu: the thing is tho, human society does collapse periodically.
jurov: i don't believe in some value tokens so much. i think rather having web of out-of-box thinking people is the key to survival.
mircea_popescu: also a very good point
jurov: by the way, you'll come around some tokens, too
mircea_popescu: jurov now you know why the secret service people ended up entrepreneurs
mircea_popescu: in catastrophic situations knowing the right people is most valuable.
TomServo: mircea_popescu: what are a couple example of societal collapse?

Bowjob: Oh shit
Bowjob: Drop!!!
Bugpowder: yeah
mircea_popescu: TomServo the obvious one is the fall of the roman empire.
jurov: TomServo, http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/060105_soviet_lessons.shtml
mircea_popescu: the old south collapsed as such after the civil war. the british empire did the same.
mircea_popescu: napoelon's france collapsed, royal france collapsed before that
Bugpowder: It's driving the 24vwap up though
Bugpowder: :)
mircea_popescu: chinese society collapsed like 6 or 7 times
mircea_popescu: germany collapsed end of ww2, soviet empire end of cold war
mircea_popescu: how many so far, a dozen ?
DeadWeasel: aztecs
mircea_popescu: list is pretty long.
Bugpowder: Societies do collapse
mircea_popescu: the hittite empire collapsed completely. the hellenistic empire (larger than any other, incidentally) did likewise
DeadWeasel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Societal_collapse#Examples_of_civilizations_and_societies_that_have_collapsed
TomServo: All good examples. I guess the difference this time being the 'shrinking' of the globe?
Bugpowder: BUT... the probability that in any given generation a collapse will occur rather than a muddling through is pretty low
mircea_popescu: TomServo i wonder why'd it be a difference.
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder black swan events. fat tail. all that jazz.
Bugpowder: I would think that the collapse would be more obvious ahead of time.
mircea_popescu: nah
TomServo: mircea_popescu: well, the roman collapse didn't affect anything going on in america at the time.
mircea_popescu: i am pretty sure the correct model for understanding them is financial crisis.
mircea_popescu: TomServo so ?
Bugpowder: Like, the metro to Santa Monica is almost complete and there are some really nice parks being built.
Bugpowder: that does not smell like collapes
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder some of the best surviving roman architecture is from right before and right after collapse.
Bugpowder: How many of these collapses were due to outside influence 'changing the game'
mircea_popescu: in general arts trail.
TomServo: mircea_popescu: so america collapsing isn't going to just affect america
Bugpowder: vs internal collapse due to debt/corruption
mircea_popescu: TomServo this is a theory. we have no actual history to back it yet.
Bugpowder: 50%
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder i don't see why you think those two are categorically distinct. seems the same thing to me.
TomServo: mircea_popescu: correct I'm just speculating - it just seems like common sense though.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing common about sense :D
TomServo: with USD being the reserve currency
Bugpowder: well, getting conquered, new disease vector, etc
TomServo: true.
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder so has china conquered the us ?
Bugpowder: no
mircea_popescu: hah.
mircea_popescu: if we were archeologists we'd look at the items we find and say yes it was.
Bugpowder: In 1986 everyone thought Japan owned the US and soon the world
mircea_popescu: not my point tho.
jurov: and germany won the WWII
Bugpowder: Perspectives can change quickly
mircea_popescu: the way "conquest" is established is look at item production and distribution sources.
mircea_popescu: like, buncha minoan pottery in mainland greece? minos conquered mainland greece.

mircea_popescu: so basically... i need to add more option lines.
mod6: jurov: thanks for that link
mod6: Each half-liter bottle of vodka was exchanged for ten liters of gasoline, giving vodka far greater effective energy density than rocket fuel.
mircea_popescu: mod6 there's an old joke, goes something like this :
mircea_popescu: buncha people inside a train car stopped in the middle of nowhere. they ask the conductor why aren't they moving ?
mircea_popescu: "because the engineer is changing the engine".
mircea_popescu: after a few hours they get impatient
mircea_popescu: "well... why are not moving still ?"
mircea_popescu: "because the engineer changed the engine for a bottle of vodka.
mod6: haha
mod6: awesome
Bugpowder: more option lines are definitely needed
mod6: i've read a lot of russian lit, and someday if things are ever better in this world, I'd like to visit.
Bugpowder: BTW your analogy about china conquering the US reflects more upon the folly of inference from archeological scraps that on the reality of the current power structure.
Bugpowder: than on
Bugpowder: Does BTCe have a deposit problem or what?
Bugpowder: http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/btceUSD.html

lyspooner: why are the next months' volumes so low? usually by this time there's some open interest worth talking about

mircea_popescu: lyspooner ikr?
Bugpowder: lyspooner: there hasn't been that much volume this moth
Bugpowder: me, Namworld and unknown other party
Bugpowder: I think were most of the action
Namworld: oh yeah... apparently I chose the wrong time for those options
Namworld: Unless someone drops 500k BTC on the market RIGHT NOW
Bugpowder: it could happen
Namworld: Unlikely, but...
Bugpowder: Give me an hour... :-P
Namworld: maybe if I drug some bitcoin big shot enough...
mircea_popescu: lol
Namworld: I can make that person believe the price is currently 0.30 USD/BTC and he should stop loss...
mjr__: lol
mjr__: it would take a million and a half to move it to 28 i think
Namworld: Looks like we might have a good month for S.MPOE
mjr__: nice
Namworld: sure, lots of low calls...
Namworld: but 70k puts bought at 33-35... these are worth almost nothing by now.
Namworld: They were bought for 1+ BTC each...
Namworld: major burn
DeadWeasel: .
Namworld: maybe...
Namworld: might have been exercised at some point between then and now.
mircea_popescu: Namworld i think that was covered tho
Namworld: probably at some point, yes
