mjr_: going on about 13% of the company defining its true value
mjr_: is silly
jurov: evoorhees indicated maybe 10-30% being held by other investors
thestringpuller: ;;bc,24hrprc
gribble: Error: "bc,24hrprc" is not a valid command.
mjr_: think its at least 2 others
mjr_: 3 total
mjr_: that make up 87% and he has said he doesn't have a majority i believe
mjr_: i personally am expecting some news from sdice at some point in the next few months...they have been quiet for quite a while
mjr_: diff is i expect some good news
mjr_: but that is pure speculation on my part
mjr_: Bugpowder: i should have been scooping up some calls during the lows
mjr_: Bugpowder: i typically do the same thing. at the money calls, hold till end of month...haven't had an option expire worthless yet
mjr_: and in fact made about 300% this month, though i exercised early at 71

ThickAsThieves: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=157789.msg1669605#msg1669605 scam?
Lyspooner: blockchain selling coinbase
jurov: from piuk? i think not
ThickAsThieves: i thought i had seen his name as trustworthy, but was unaware coinbase was for sale
assbot: [BTCTC] [SYNERGY] 6 @ 0.0099 = 0.0594 BTC [+]
mjr_: coinbase?
mjr_: the company out of san fran?
mjr_: they had 600k seed round
mjr_: didn't think it was from blockchain
ThickAsThieves: is that one of the sites everyone hates now?
mjr_: well...
mjr_: they obviously can't keep up with the demand
mjr_: so there is bound to be friction
jurov: both coinbase and coinlab are reviled
mjr_: don't leave gox out
mjr_: though people still use them
mjr_: not voting with their feet yet
Lyspooner: it's tough to be in a queue to buy bitcoins and see the amount of bitcoins you can buy halved
mjr_: amazing that anyone manages to get coins with how much the companies have fucked up in managing expectations
mjr_: yep i'll say
Lyspooner: piuk wouldn't be selling unless there were more problems than queuing
mjr_: so these june diff futures
mjr_: ooh
mjr_: this is a real pe deal
mjr_: anyone get details at all?
jurov: mjr_ were you around when i explained yest?
mjr_: rough pricing? denomination of payment?
mjr_: well...he is selling equity in a us company
mjr_: the shares you get will be denominated in dollars
mjr_: jurov: i had not seen, explained what?
jurov: the problem with idiffs
jurov: on mpex
mjr_: that they would need to triple the difficulty for me to break even?
mjr_: buying at that ask at least
jurov: not that. that they can combust spontaneously befre difficulty even gets to 25 million
mjr_: hows that?
jurov: collateral is 2.9 of something. or 2.9*2.9 of december something
jurov: no one is sure what the something is
mjr_: the difficulty at that point i thought
mjr_: its a function of the difficulty as of the last futures contract known
jurov: well, do the maffs yourself then
jurov: ;;calc 4.8*2.9
gribble: 13.92
jurov: for example for idiff created when diff was 4.8m
mjr_: no doesn't work like that
Lyspooner: another matonis forbes piece out: http://www.forbes.com/sites/jonmatonis/2013/03/24/cyprus-goes-cashless-the-hard-way/
mjr_: no your right
mjr_: sorry
mjr_: going off of march
mjr_: not off of january
mjr_: yeah so 13.92 * 2.9
mjr_: ;;calc 13.92 * 2.9
gribble: 40.368
mjr_: so you need to have up 40 million satoshi or 4 btc i think for each contract
mjr_: for sept
mjr_: for june only 1.4 btc
jurov: eee 40m is 0.4
mjr_: but you'll be autoliquidated in case of collateral being exceeded
mjr_: oops, moved the decimal
mjr_: so i don't see the problem
mjr_: you could be forcibly liquidated
mjr_: but at a profit to you of 2.9x i think
mjr_: for the person forcibly liquidated at least
mjr_: with the seller losing his collateral
jurov: let's start from the begin. you buy idiff.jun at 0.2499
mjr_: ok
jurov: and get autoliquidated at 15million = you get 0.15
mjr_: do both sides
jurov: that's quite a pe , lol
mjr_: ah ok...hold on
mjr_: collateral is....013?
jurov: maybe 0.13 or maybe more, depending on when the idiffs were created.
jurov: 0.13 is worst case
mjr_: thought it went off the last close
mjr_: quarterly
mjr_: did not know it changed intraquarter
mjr_: ah ok i see
mjr_: so you are saying that the current ask is ridiculous...no one should buy it
jurov: yes i think it comes form last close, i would be thankful if you enumerated all the options
mjr_: fair enough
jurov: but i think it won't be worth it in any case
mjr_: yes true
mjr_: but then again no one is forcing you to buy at that price
mjr_: last sale was .08
mjr_: well within a profitable range
mjr_: roughly double in fact
Bowjob: yawn
Bowjob: ;;ticker

jurov: ofc, nobody forces me since i made my own: https://bitfunder.com/asset/CoinBr.iDiff-E
jurov: hate to do commercial plugs but
mjr_: lol :)
mjr_: i think its great
jurov: that one has known collateral and shorter maturity
mjr_: so caveat emptor market orders may not even have chance at profit
jurov: yes
mjr_: so at .08 they look like a bargain for june
jurov: lol i bought some at 0.035 back in january... someone made an erroneous order
jurov: but was too ashamed to admit since
mjr_: fat finger lol
mjr_: nice trade :)
jurov: when they do autocombust, i'll report
mjr_: well, luckily their possible losses are known
mjr_: looking forward to april options
mjr_: and june
mjr_: going to try and sell some puts to buy calls
mjr_: dude, watching barings go under is kinda excruciating but this movie is great
mjr_: like they were epic...british bank selling louisiana to the US for France WHILE france and britain were at war
mjr_: largest land deal in history up to that point
Bugpowder: mjr_: The depost on the puts is large
Bugpowder: also, nobody is selling for .08, just buying.
mjr_: Bugpowder: how is that possible
Bugpowder: if you want some at .249 I'm selling
mjr_: who do they buy from?
Bugpowder: someone sold to their bid
jurov: Bugpowder, what does your IMMCover say?
mjr_: ok...so someone sold around .08
Bugpowder: jurov, where is that?
jurov: in statjson output
Bugpowder: mine were created a long time ago
Bugpowder: So much more than 2.9x current diff
mjr_: i was saying that i would simply place limit orders at the price i wanted and get filled or no
mjr_: wish i could calc how many puts per btc right now
jurov: bugpowder i think the only way you can sell the idiffs is to show proof they are well covered :)
Bugpowder: yah, it sucks
Bugpowder: ;;calc 19.84/70
gribble: 0.283428571429

Bugpowder: ok, I will lower my price a bit :)
assbot: [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 5 @ 0.83799 = 4.19 BTC [-]
jurov: i suppose i just confirmed that <thestringpuller> Jurov is a big meanie head
mjr_: is this at 70 strike?
jurov: what?
mjr_: Bugpowder: that is the deposit on a 70 btc put?
mjr_: <Bugpowder> ;;calc 19.84/70
mjr_: <@gribble> 0.283428571429
jurov: no, it's on idiff.jun
jurov: bugpowder is selling
mjr_: oh ok
mjr_: what is the collateral requirement for a 70 put
jurov: ;;bc,24hprc

jurov: ;;calc 70/68
gribble: 1.02941176471
jurov: something more than that
Bugpowder: its more than that
Bugpowder: yeha
Bugpowder: probably around 90
Bugpowder: if you want calls, buy calls
assbot: [MPEX] [S.DICE] 2000 @ 0.004004 = 8.008 BTC [-]
mjr_: 90?
Bugpowder: around there
Bugpowder: The formula is not known
mjr_: 90 btc per put?
Bugpowder: no about 1.2 per put
assbot: [MPEX] [S.DICE] 352 @ 0.004 = 1.408 BTC [-]
Bugpowder: create a single put and find out.
Bugpowder: report back
Bugpowder: calls are always 1BTC
Bugpowder: Puts are always more
Bugpowder: than 1 BTC
mjr_: thats not ture
mjr_: true
mjr_: it is possible to create multiple puts for 1 btc
mjr_: it depends on strike
mjr_: the only thing we know is that puts are a function of strike so you could get multiple puts per btc or fewer than 1 puts per btc
mjr_: at least that is how it was explained to me...i mean who needs more than a 1 btc for a put struck at $1?
jurov: my calculation was as per the faq, but there's some padding.
mjr_: now that put would be more than likely worthless to everyone
mjr_: but if you figure that's one end of the spectrum
mjr_: a put at $120 or so would be the other side (not sure max strike atm)
jurov: max strike is 75 atm, planned to be 200
mjr_: ah cool
mjr_: puts are tough
Bugpowder: mjr_: The minimum is 1 BTC. Any strike will go to infinite BTC value if BTC falls to $0.
Bugpowder: the 2% creation fee pays for 'insurance' on that possibility
Bugpowder: obviously if BTC goes to zero, you could just buy infinte BTC to pay the debt.
jurov: that's quite a philosophical exercise, since there will be only 21M BTC ever.
jurov: such debt would prolly be better repaid with pizza
jurov: :)
kakobrekla: lol
assbot: [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 6 @ 0.81 = 4.86 BTC [-]
Namworld: If Bitcoin was to permanently become worthless, I'd gladly accept a pizza instead =/
mjr_: Each PUT requires an amount of collateral equal to strike / spot BTC .
mjr_: using MKOPT
jurov: yes, but there's some additional secret sauce
mjr_: is that not for split?
mjr_: split doesn't tell you what margin requirements are exactly
jurov: according to my understanding, split jusr divides provided amount into half
mjr_: only that you will get a certain number of puts based on the strike/current
jurov: and for puts it uses same formula as mkopt
assbot: [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 2 @ 0.8 = 1.6 BTC [-]
assbot: [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 3 @ 0.8 = 2.4 BTC [-]
mjr_: but the MKOPT seemed straightforward
mjr_: ah ok

mjr_: the jacket he wore sold for 21,000X what barings was sold to ING for
mjr_: if that isn't fucked up, i don't know what is
cadsII: taub: my understanding is that the wall is a large amount of sell orders that were put on the upper margin by bears.
mircea_popescu: taub not much to explain

mjr_: its funny though
mjr_: because all those people who think that walls are conspiracies
mjr_: don't realize that the wallmakers have all the risk
mjr_: or should i say most
mjr_: price manipulators are usually fighting the market
mjr_: trying to maintain prices buy support buying or what have you
mjr_: or on the flip side trying to keep price low while waiting for funds to clear (stupidest theory)
mjr_: the bigger the market the harder to control
mircea_popescu: the entire manipulation thing is kind of nonsense.

jurov: mircea_popescu: deposits, please?
MJRIII: bitfloor last is 73.50
MJRIII: once its up around $100 i can't wait to just trade for fun
mircea_popescu: jurov thy wish is my command.
MJRIII: rebate is really nice at that price
jurov: thx
mircea_popescu: smickles my npd goes as such : yest told waitress she has a beautiful smile and it's a pleasure to talk to her which made her smile compulsively like an idiot every time she saw me and then gave her a nice tip. today cooked pasta and had jasmine tea (4 cups). so you tell me.
mircea_popescu: and also jasmine tea is the best tea there is.
mircea_popescu: also this chatlog is a riot lol. clockbluffers.
MJRIII: did you watch the tiberiusiv section?
mircea_popescu: im reading through iot
mircea_popescu: where it=log
MJR_III: it tends to repeat itself as tiberiusiv keeps circling back to his old flawed points
MJR_III: smickles really cut the argument down to its core though, so good job to him
Bugpowder: tiberisuiv is a little puppy, very excited about all these new ideas bitcoin has put in his head.
jurov: wait till mircea comes to what tibby thinks about his sdice opinion
MJR_III: i know yeah
mircea_popescu: for the record tho : the dividend-based corp valuation model is flawed.
mircea_popescu: i understand the value of dividends in decreasing risk
mircea_popescu: however, plenty of irl companies pay no dividends. hathaway paid no dividends.
mircea_popescu: or whatever, paid 1 cent once in 197x
MJR_III: mircea_popescu: that was kakobrekla's point of view
dub: I like monkey paw green tea
mircea_popescu: and YES, buffett COULD wire himself all their capital in uganda and run off.
MJR_III: AAPL being the best example
MJR_III: did not pay any dividends in steve jobs era IIRC
Bugpowder: dividends make sense if you have a strong income flow but not a good plan for applying that capital to company growth
smickles: i was a bit of a troll at some points MJR_III ;)
MJR_III: smickles: it was in that sense anti-troll
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder exactly. which is why i see why the cavirtex ppl wouldn't really want to pay dividends.
MJR_III: because saying evoorhees runs sdice and bitinstant is patently false
mircea_popescu: i don't think that necessarily speaks against them
mircea_popescu: MJR_III iirc evoorhees was pr for bitinstant ?
mircea_popescu: im pretty sure shrem runs it
MJR_III: mircea_popescu: i agree...but i don't like having to sell a position to take profits
mircea_popescu: MJR_III that's also a point, yeah.
MJR_III: if i believe in the company i'd rather just buy and hold...but sometimes you need to take some profits to rebalance
mircea_popescu: well... here's the other side of that coin :
Bugpowder: fuck balance, buy calls
Bugpowder: :-P
mircea_popescu: the fact that stocks work as bonds (ie, they issue dividends)
mircea_popescu: makes the markets very illiquid
MJR_III: good point
mircea_popescu: or moreover, fractured : the big time holders who don't participate in price formation
MJR_III: i am in that boat now with sdice
mircea_popescu: and the 1-10 btc holders who move the price 30 to 70 to 30 to 70
mircea_popescu: creating a general; impression of disorder
MJR_III: that is my biggest problem
mircea_popescu: yeah.
MJR_III: it fucks up my performance sheets
MJR_III: and for no real reason
MJR_III: since volume is very low and spreads are wide
mircea_popescu: so in a very macro sense you are better off as a portofolio investor with the "have to sell ot realise" paradigm, as inconvenient as it is
mircea_popescu: because the alternative sucks more.
MJR_III: but again...valuation is the key, that is basically what caused 2008 crises
MJR_III: people not knowing what shit was worth
mircea_popescu: course corps like s.dice have no choice in the matter, as there's no practical way to deploy.
mircea_popescu: but corps that have the choice...
MJR_III: i was watching rogue trader today...they sold nick leesons trading floor jacket for 21,000 lb
MJR_III: sold barings for 1 lb
mircea_popescu: they should have sold his jacket for shares
MJR_III: hehehe
mircea_popescu: not for fiat
MJR_III: actually they should have claimed that it was a liquidable asset
MJR_III: and ING should have gotten it
MJR_III: i'm about to watch margin call...but that very word makes me feel ill
MJR_III: which is why i like bitcoin trading...i don't have margin calls to worry about
mircea_popescu: lol @ "unless there is legislation STOPPING you it is implicityly legal" "WRONG" part
mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv who told you this ?
MJR_III: you will lol quite a bit
MJR_III: it gets worse from there
mircea_popescu: but anyway, i don't get his numbers.
MJR_III: this is completely ignoring the matter of jurisdiction of said legislation

mircea_popescu: Bugpowder kinda meaningless figure tho innit.
Bugpowder: not totally
Bugpowder: the is the lower bound of cash on hand at mtgox
MJR_III: in some ways it makes more sense to think of SDICE as a private equity stake

mircea_popescu: "mjr: if satoshidice future was more certain, the price would reflect it, it doesnt." << well, this is fundamentally a broken argument.
mircea_popescu: a restatement of the efficient market theory, which is broken even in fiat.
MJR_III: yep
MJR_III: he is a HUGE proponent of efficient market
smickles: Bugpowder: it's not cash on hand at gox
MJR_III: as you'll see...i told him if market was efficient it'd be broken
MJR_III: no trading ever

mircea_popescu: wtf is it about bad ideas that makes them so irresistible to people.
dub: isn't dice price a reflection of random market killing acts by its issuer?
Bugpowder: they don't
Bugpowder: smickles is wrong
mircea_popescu: dub possibly.
MJR_III: Bugpowder proved that last night
MJR_III: dub: lol
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder don't they ?
Bugpowder: I tested it.
mircea_popescu: a ok. was about to blow up over here
MJR_III: the other orders only pop up when that one is canceled
Bugpowder: If you underfund your bids, your cheapest bids don't post to the market
mircea_popescu: so basically you can put it in, but it won't list it in the book ?
MJR_III: i think bugpowder said that they only show the closest to top of book?
Bugpowder: right
mircea_popescu: pretty clever way to do it.
mircea_popescu: kills both cats.
MJR_III: what about both sides of book Bugpowder?
MJR_III: for a market maker?
Bugpowder: Don't have coin at mtgox right now, but pretty sure you need to fund asks too for them to show
Bugpowder: I can test in a few days when I dump another batch at $97. :)
MJR_III: well that theory was busted for me...i guess their book is pretty accurate, as far as they actually have funds behind orders
Bugpowder: right, but what we REALLY want to know is the shadow pool of funds not on the book.
smickles: 'tis true m'lrd
smickles: it's why people say X wall is fake
smickles: ;;latency
gribble: 0.25 seconds.
MJR_III: been a trading movie kind of day
Bugpowder: people say X wall is fake because they are fucking idiots.
MJR_III: glengarry glen ross and rogue trader...now margin call
MJR_III: well...
mircea_popescu: glengarry glen ross kicked ass.
MJR_III: hehehe
MJR_III: yeah
MJR_III: coffee is for closers
mircea_popescu: ;;google trilema glengarry glen ross

mircea_popescu: dude google is so borkt.
Bugpowder: lol
Bugpowder: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kZg_ALxEz0
dub: I was trying to think of a way that gox can be gamed through its shithouse engine
MJR_III: spammy orders
dub: you could basically stop trading with a handfull of accounts
Bugpowder: third prize is... your fired!
MJR_III: doubt they have toxic flow preventers
MJR_III: you could use the api to send many orders at tiny amounts
MJR_III: their minimum
MJR_III: filling their queues
dub: if you could work out how to reliably control timing..
Bugpowder: to some extent bots already do that
MJR_III: it is almost certain that they are doing reads on an HDD
MJR_III: well bots do it intentionally to try to place orders
Bugpowder: I would imagine they are using SSDs.
MJR_III: you could do it far outside the money
MJR_III: you wo9uld imagine wrong i think
Bugpowder: and that the whole book is kept in RAM
MJR_III: 2 minutes lag with an ssd?
MJR_III: lol, i wish
MJR_III: no way its that slow if that were the case
MJR_III: DB programming is one of the biggest areas where this space needs help
Bugpowder: They are not hitting the disk.
MJR_III: you are sure?
Bugpowder: nope
Bugpowder: But the book isn't very big
MJR_III: how could they be so slow in RAM
MJR_III: even more reason they can't have it in ram
mircea_popescu: MJR_III because they run a webserver on the same machine
mircea_popescu: and when apache gets flooded it slows down
MJR_III: they list "improving the matching engine is one of our biggest projects right now"
MJR_III: apache is not the matching engine...though that very may well exacerbate the problem
mircea_popescu: they're prolly going to move it on a separate machine seeing how i the "how mpex does it" article made the rounds
mircea_popescu: which thanks god already.
mircea_popescu: MJR_III apache slows down the entire machine.
MJR_III: ah could be true i suppose
MJR_III: not a big fan of apache...its ok
MJR_III: nor am i a fan of php
MJR_III: they should have gone nodejs, nginx, and mongodb
smickles: < Bugpowder> smickles is wrong << i guess they finally gave that up, huh? (also, i'm laggin out like mad cats)
MJR_III: but mostly for the cool factor
mircea_popescu: well... most webservers come prioritised out of the box
dub: smicklescorp under ddos?
mircea_popescu: "Most open tickets have a resolution within 20 minutes. Remaining cases are when there is not enough information, or when issues are not simple user-specific issues (or linked to an outage)."
mircea_popescu: sez tux.
smickles: dub: yeah, by the damn baidu bot
smickles: it hits me about 12 times a day
MJR_III: btw... mircea_popescu did you see the Private Equity deal for CoinBase?
Bugpowder: mircea_popescu: They raised my withdrawl limit two hours after I emailed them
jurov: interesting, bitcoin-central does accept unfunded asks too, but shows them in book with zero amount
mircea_popescu: MJR_III i have nod.
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder that's cool.
mircea_popescu: as far as i know you're the only person with a positive experience with them.
Bugpowder: yah, I was afraid it would be a PITA and I'd be behind 5500 accounts waiting verification
mircea_popescu: not discounting it, but it IS exceptional.
Bugpowder: I was already verified so it must have been easy
Bugpowder: so many reddit posts about how hard it is to buy bitcoins
MJR_III: lol, i am loving bitfinex
MJR_III: put $170 in on the 19th...$175 today...
MJR_III: crazy to see compound interest at work...usually its fractions of pennies
Bugpowder: its really a system of haves and have nots. People with verified gox accounts that aren't scared by filling out a wire form or put off by paying a $30 fee, or have a bitcoins direct account... Those are the haves. Then there are the people that use coinbase or are sitting in the verification queue.
nanotube: jurov: i updated to use the new data.mtgox
Bugpowder: Bitcoin is just such a stunning example of how profitable it can be to be an early adopter of something, on some many levels.
Bugpowder: so many
jurov: can i resell my verified acct somehow?
jurov: or would it be suspicious that guy from yurp suddenly gets bunch of ach,dwolla and such stuff?
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder then there's the people with 50k waiting for 3 months for the "developers" to look into it
smickles: http://blog.smickles.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2013/03/scary-batman-double-top.jpg
Bugpowder: mircea_popescu: Did they wire in over $10k at a time?
jurov: let's finish the drawin together
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder long time user guy, im sure he didn't step into anything obvious.
Bugpowder: sux. that's like 0.65 Teslas.
mircea_popescu: "MagicalTux already explained that he is writing a entirely new site that is decent and not a stupid magic the gathering trading script. "
mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=20572.msg263943#msg263943
mircea_popescu: june 2011.
Bugpowder: So... On wednesday, thursday and friday of last week, 10,000-20,000 BTC buys went off between 15:00-15:30 GMT each day. So, we may be thru $75 within the next 15 hours.
dub: ;;market buy 20000
gribble: A market order to buy 20000 bitcoins right now would take 1477023.0224 USD and would take the last price up to 75.1364 USD, resulting in an average price of 73.8512 USD/BTC. | Data vintage: 0.0011 seconds
Bugpowder: correction TuesWedsThurs
MJR_III: mircea_popescu: did you see the car i want to get once bitcoins make it possible lol
MJR_III: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z39jXZfCpf0
MJR_III: such a beast
MJR_III: its nice to dream
MJR_III: but anyways...this PE deal could be good i think
MJR_III: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=157789.msg1669605#msg1669605
MJR_III: could probably use some activist investors lol
MJR_III: fix whatever stupid model they are using
mircea_popescu: what's with everyonebuying cars already
dub: I was gonna dismiss that based on its european decent but its actually pretty badass
mircea_popescu: "Hey All I Am a long time miner with a low budget. My 1 Gh/s isnt cutting it anymore, or has it for a long time. I need our Help to Secure a Batch #3 Avalon. I Have A Listing Up On BTCJam"
mircea_popescu: gotta love these.
MJR_III: i haven't gotten one yet
MJR_III: but maybe at $1000 per btc
MJR_III: basically military model
MJR_III: 250 btc then i think...
MJR_III: but that was not the cool link...what would you price that block of coinbase shares at?
mircea_popescu: i don't see that coinbase is worth money.
mircea_popescu: i would sell.
MJR_III: well...
MJR_III: while i agree coinbase is fucking up their opportunity
MJR_III: that just changes the price
MJR_III: they have users
MJR_III: and could turn around
MJR_III: in fact, i think that is not a good sign for them
mircea_popescu: sure.
MJR_III: looking for liquidity options ON A FORUM
mircea_popescu: but you asked me.
MJR_III: not second market
MJR_III: not an otc thing, or not another internal investor
tiberiusiv: if voorhees has 90% of sdice shares, what stops him from playing on his own site everytime he wants to dump more shares, in order to increase "profits" thereby introducing more motivated bidders to buy them
Bugpowder: mircea_popescu: A car is a functional object of desire that feels like it just might actually be in reach, even if you have only a few hundred coins.
Bugpowder: tiberiusiv: ffs
Bugpowder: read the trilemna
mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv this is a recurring topic, http://trilema.com/2013/the-question-of-the-year-in-btc/
mircea_popescu: there's even a bounty out.
Bugpowder: http://trilema.com/2013/the-question-of-the-year-in-btc/
tiberiusiv: thnx
Bugpowder: ya
Bugpowder: it is an interesting idea though
Bugpowder: (87%) now
Bugpowder: minus the mystery investors shares
tiberiusiv: if sdice had that level of profits why is mpex worth more then sdice?
mircea_popescu: omg i beat Bugpowder tyo the links once
mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv also an amply discussed topic.
Bugpowder: we need a FAQ for bitcoin-asstes
mircea_popescu: lol
tiberiusiv: the article doesnt answer the question
tiberiusiv: simply you cant prove it
mircea_popescu: something like "read http://trilema.com/category/mpex/ and then http://trilema.com/category/bitcoin/". when you're done you can't look like a fool anymore.
mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv any field of human activity will have open questions.
tiberiusiv: ever watch boiler room.
MJR_III: yes
mircea_popescu: i haven't. is it worth it ?
tiberiusiv: bitcoin enables you to run boiler room scams all day long
Bugpowder: Also known as the bitcointalk forum
tiberiusiv: mircea: its more entertainment then anything
Bugpowder: yeah its a pretty decent movie
mircea_popescu: mkay, was looking for something.
Bugpowder: I cannot freaking wait to see the MPOE results for this month
Bugpowder: I suspect a disaster is brewing for the bondholders
tiberiusiv: well why cant mpex do the same thing?
tiberiusiv: create bids to sell the 1bil shares too
Bugpowder: I assume this is what mircea_popescu is doing. Why else would S.MPOE be worth so much?
tiberiusiv: lol
tiberiusiv: mircea IS the market
MJR_III: well...think about this
Bugpowder: Not really though
Bugpowder: People have deposited a LOT of coins into the recieving address
MJR_III: investing in a company that loses value in bitcoin (as long as its not too fast) just slows your rate of gain for now
mircea_popescu: dude, i have no idea. there's an old article discussing this, i'm no better.
mircea_popescu: one idea may be that s.mpoe shareholders can never make a loss.
Bugpowder: the coins need to go into some security
mircea_popescu: s.dice can.
tiberiusiv: bugpowder: you can send coins to yourself.
MJR_III: i have always wondered why you put bondholders before shareholders
MJR_III: which is fine, but just opposite
tiberiusiv: um every business does that
MJR_III: huh?
tiberiusiv: bondholders come before shareholders.
tiberiusiv: even in bankruptcy
MJR_III: to get PAID
MJR_III: not to take losses
tiberiusiv: what losses are the bondholders taking? he didnt default
MJR_III: read the faq please
MJR_III: i'll paste it, but srsly
Bugpowder: there are many financial instruments that are concievable
tiberiusiv: he probably placed bondholders before shareholders since hes the largest shareholder
mircea_popescu: ...
Bugpowder: one should read the contract, not the name.
mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv srsly, read stuff. it's fun to read.
tiberiusiv: i did read your post, there was no answer about mr voorhees
tiberiusiv: fact is nobody knows.
mircea_popescu: you are nao discussing a different topic tho
Bugpowder: tiberiusiv: correct
mircea_popescu: which is also documented at length
tiberiusiv: voorhees has massive incentive to manipulate sdice and get rich dumping stock
Bugpowder: nobody knows, and everyone knows nobody knows except those that do not yet know that everyone knows that nobody knows.
mircea_popescu: haha
tiberiusiv: you can easily put together $5-10mil
Bugpowder: but now you know
Bugpowder: and knowing is half the battle
tiberiusiv: lol bugpowder
mircea_popescu: how much is a 2 carat, sdlightly yellow, princess cut no impurities diamond worth ?
Bugpowder: what do you mean by slightly yellow?
MJR_III: (k)In the case where MPOE, after having paid the interest as detailed above as well as all costs and fees resulting from contracts purchases and executions will be found to have a shortfall, that shortfall will be applied to the capital of the bonds deposited that were accepted proportionally, so that each bond is reduced by the same ratio as the ratio between the shortfall and the
MJR_III: calculated capital reserves requirement. Bonds that were not accepted as well as the unaccepted parts of partially accepted bonds are extempt from this reduction.
Bugpowder: $12k
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder HA!
Bugpowder: assuming its a J color, and lets say SI2
mircea_popescu: diamonds are not scarce and debeers is just manipulating the price.
Bugpowder: yes I know that you know that
mircea_popescu: it's worth $45
mircea_popescu: lalala
Bugpowder: are you using a cost based pricing model instead of a price based costing model?
mircea_popescu: hehe
mircea_popescu: just showing that speculative thought is not always economically relevant.
mircea_popescu: as enjoyable the indulging of it may be.
Bugpowder: if the diamond cost $45 to dig out, you need to spend $2000 in ads to make it worth $12000
mircea_popescu: o, we're not considering the cost to dig it out
Bugpowder: cartel is pretty much broken now right?
mircea_popescu: we're armchair economists, so we get to pick our cost model.
MJR_III: i guess the overall point to take away is invest what you want and get the returns you can...try to learn the risks, but you will NEVER have a risk free investment and you will never have perfect information
Bugpowder: why haven't prices dropped?
mircea_popescu: we'll use a copper mining model for diamons.
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder actually... the russians found something like three tons under a lake.
mircea_popescu: and i mean that, like 54734897598347985739847 carats
Bugpowder: MJR_III: yeah, to the point of tiberiusiv, this is just one more datapoint for the risk matrix. Get more datapoints and connect the dots better then everyone else and you will make money in this bitcoin shit.
mircea_popescu: just like irl,
mircea_popescu: but with bits
MJR_III: yep
MJR_III: efficient market is bullshit
MJR_III: you get what you can
MJR_III: try to know a little more than the next guy
mircea_popescu: anyway, the "it's all just one great conspiracy" argument is never disprovable.
MJR_III: hehehe...what if aliens
tiberiusiv: at the end of the day, major players hold substantial bitcoins and need bids to dump them. bitcoin has worse wealth distribution then even fiat currency by a massive margin
mircea_popescu: it carries a little more apparent water in btc than irl because there's fewer people in btc
Bugpowder: mircea_popescu: and with competition that is significantly underpowered relative to irl finance.
mircea_popescu: but then again, we KNEW there's fewer people in btc at the onset.
mircea_popescu: tiberiusiv how do you know this ?
tiberiusiv: just add up even the top 500 adresss which probably belong to 50 people.
Bugpowder: yeah, I actually doubt tiberiusiv statement is true
mircea_popescu: ...
mircea_popescu: so what, add up some fact with some assumption ?
mircea_popescu: why haven't i thought about that! you mean this can prove ANYTHING ?
mircea_popescu: wow.
Bugpowder: add up the top 50 people IRL net worth
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder i have no way of knowing. i'm one of the major holders and my addies aren't on the list.
mircea_popescu: what nao
tiberiusiv: bugpowder: none of the top 50 hold even 1% of oustanding dollars.
Bugpowder: O?
mircea_popescu: trivial to hold 1mn btc in 100k 10 btc addies.
mircea_popescu: and arguably much better safety too
tiberiusiv: yes exactly
mircea_popescu: (admitting someone cracks an address)
Bugpowder: Who owns Aramco
tiberiusiv: the top 500 adress's probably belong to 50 people
tiberiusiv: that doesnt even count the spread out individuals
error4733: ?
mircea_popescu: is this where someone whips out a "the richest 50 famblies own 547834987593485 dollars" ?
tiberiusiv: the richest families dont own the money.
tiberiusiv: they own illiquid assets they can never sell
mircea_popescu: o ic.
mircea_popescu: this because fiat is broken
error4733: dont thinks big holder keep in big wallet, u made 100 address in a second
mircea_popescu: btc not being broken... we focus on that.
MJR_III: Think big, think positive, never show any sign of weakness. Always go for the throat. Buy low, sell high. Fear? That's the other guy's problem. Nothing you have ever experienced will prepare you for the absolute carnage you are about to witness. Super Bowl, World Series - they don't know what pressure is. In this building, it's either kill or be killed. You make no friends in the pits
MJR_III: and you take no prisoners. One minute you're up half a million in soybeans and the next, boom, your kids don't go to college and they've repossessed your Bentley. Are you with me?
MJR_III: lol
mircea_popescu: such bs.
tiberiusiv: yea MJR im sure your selling low and high with your 25 btc's
tiberiusiv: you a player
mircea_popescu: why ? chix in the pits are some of the hottest sackpanthers you'll ever befriend
Bugpowder: tiberiusiv: if you a baller why not flash some addresses up here
tiberiusiv: channels logged.
Bugpowder: so what?
mircea_popescu: lol. let the kid be.
tiberiusiv: make the cash without the flash
Bugpowder: what evidence do we have that you are a baller
mircea_popescu: he's taking the boy approach to learning, challenging stuff.
Bugpowder: you could just be pretending...
tiberiusiv: learning what? so far what ive seen in here is massive misunderstandings of markets
mircea_popescu: yeah, that.
tiberiusiv: no understanding of liquidty, bid/asks spreads. confusion over the fact that a tiny group of bitcoiners has massive price influence.
Bugpowder: that too
tiberiusiv: the major holders are all to happy to get coinlab to accept wallstreet bids.
Bugpowder: why wouldn't we be?
tiberiusiv: since they need HUGE bids to be able to effectively cashout
tiberiusiv: bugpowder sush you are small time
mircea_popescu: i wonder if annoyed ddos person manages to take off freenode
tiberiusiv: you were crying over $4k lost in papergains
Bugpowder: ??
Bugpowder: show me the log
mircea_popescu: anyone wanna bet on that ?
Bugpowder: I cry over ever missed bit cent.
MJR_III: tiberiusiv: it was a quote from trading spaces btw
MJR_III: tiberiusiv: you usually sound like a person who has no real experience beyond a textbook
MJR_III: anyone who believes in the efficient market theorem sounds like a freshman economics major
Bugpowder: tiberiusiv: here is why we wouldn't be... Coinlab is more likely to get hacked than to get wall street bids.
mircea_popescu: actually the more amusing part is this "coinlab wallstreet" business.
mircea_popescu: hot damn!
mircea_popescu: this guy keeps being a half second ahead of me.
Bugpowder: that's why I'm making money off you
mircea_popescu: haha i see
Bugpowder: or at least off your bondholders
Bugpowder: you have cleverly firewalled the risk
tiberiusiv: well coinlab does seem like a joke
tiberiusiv: top 26 BTC adress's are about 10% of all BTC outstanding lol
mircea_popescu: do you mean coinbase or coinlab ?
Bugpowder: both
Bugpowder: coinlab is a joke (for now), coinbase is a clusterfuck
tiberiusiv: when does coinlab officially open
Bugpowder: coinlab does have the potential to become even more of a clusterfuck than coinbase
Bugpowder: tiberiusiv: nobody knows. They moved thier alpha date to 'real soon now' 2 weeks after they said it was opening.
mircea_popescu: i would argue against such potential.
Bugpowder: heh
mircea_popescu: not because of them, obviously.
mircea_popescu: $mpexlag
mpexbot: mircea_popescu: 0.143377065659 seconds
mircea_popescu: heh.
Bugpowder: their 'partnership' with gox immediately raises thier potential beyond anything coinbase can fuck up
mircea_popescu: i am getting 6gbit for the record.
mircea_popescu: FUCK YOU MR DDOS MAN :D
mircea_popescu: mwahaha
dub: weaksauce
MJR_III: lol nice job mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: everyone's like... snickering and shit.
mircea_popescu: there's a lot of fun can be had with computers srsly.
MJR_III: fucking testament to the strength of bitcoin as an IDEA that it survives the shitty management that people throw at it
mircea_popescu: haha now that's a point
MJR_III: and i am not talking even about EXECUTING WELL
MJR_III: i am just talking about TALKING WELL
MJR_III: managing expectations
mircea_popescu: MJR_III you're new, do you know the genjix speech ?
MJR_III: no
mircea_popescu: o boy.
MJR_III: and i am mjr_ so somewhat new
MJR_III: but we've talked before
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2012/amir-taaki-has-done-and-continues-to-do-huge-disservice-to-anyone-serious-involved-in-bitcoin/
mircea_popescu: there. talkingwell.
MJR_III: fuck...not sure where i left that cookie lol
mircea_popescu: lol so make another one
Bugpowder: someone should start pastebinning these posts
Bugpowder: cut off mircea_popescu's revenue stream
mircea_popescu: fu commie
Bugpowder: S.MPOEs bid support collapses
MJR_III: lol
Bugpowder: MPEx folds
mircea_popescu: i built it all on 0.1 cent article reads!
Bugpowder: bitcoin drops to 0.01
MJR_III: i was gonna ask how much actual revenue

MJR_III: and now i'm doubling that cost i suppose
dub: anyway its probably not worth reading
MJR_III: lol, i gotta say the content is worth the price
dub: in that if you don't already know what a fuckup amir is, you don't really want to
dub: its hard to look at
mircea_popescu: hahaha
mircea_popescu: dub baby, he was A DEVTEAM GUY this time last year,.
mircea_popescu: you're aware yes ? painfully aware yes ?
dub: yes I am pained by his continued existence
MJR_III: "Taaki is a speaker of Esperanto" srsly?
MJR_III: so he can talk to the other five guys?
mircea_popescu: i think vrag is one of the other five
MJR_III: lol, anyway...he is a fuckup, he was behind intersango
mircea_popescu: o, no.
mircea_popescu: hes' the guy who "opensourced" the bitcoinica code, so abominations like bitfinex could spring up
mircea_popescu: except he opensourced it with sensitive passwords in the codebase
mircea_popescu: which resulted in a "heist"
dub: we haven't heard from Amir in a little while (afaik), I had hoped that his mother stopped suckling and he starved to death
MJR_III: USD11.90000 last intersango usd trade
MJR_III: buy buy buy
mircea_popescu: anyway, boiler room is downloaded and my toes are being suckled on so i shall bid you all a very fine evening and be back later.
MJR_III: let me know if you like it

MJR_III: wow so the ddos is affecting all of freenode
Thinker_: Max Keiser owns 20000 BTC
MJR_III: Thinker_ he has signed a message with an address that has 20000 btc?
Thinker_: at least he said he became a "bitcoin millionaire" when USD/BTC was 50
MJR_III: lol, after watching his show, i would take anything he says with considerable skepticism
tiberiusiv: bitcoin has one of the worst "wealth" distributions of any monetary system yet
Thinker_: MJR_III: good point :)
MJR_III: tiberiusiv: dude...if it is so bad, why get involved?
tiberiusiv: MJR what are you talking about?
MJR_III: at the end of the day all that matters is what you do
MJR_III: if its good, buy
MJR_III: if it's bad, sell
mircea_popescu: hallo. i got my film interrupted ;/
MJR_III: really only two choices
tiberiusiv: no what matters is what happens when the tiny % that influence 90% of the market change their mind.
mircea_popescu: we're seeing 11gbps sustained and peaks to 25 range.
MJR_III: yeah freenode put out alerts
mircea_popescu: sooo... i guess we find out today huh.

tiberiusiv: mircea: what film?
mircea_popescu: boiler room

mircea_popescu: um
mircea_popescu: what else movie could it be ?!

mircea_popescu: solid concept.
smickles: mircea_popescu: did you see what I said happened to mpexbot?
ozonelayer: hey all. I have a question about mpex options. what is the size of each contract. 100BTC? I can't find this anywhere...
smickles: 1btc
ozonelayer: 1?
smickles: yup
ozonelayer: odd...
smickles: a little
mircea_popescu: smickles yes.
mircea_popescu: ozonelayer 1 btc per contract.
mircea_popescu: why'dya think that's odd ?
mircea_popescu: $mpexlag
mpexbot: mircea_popescu: 0.112129211426 seconds
mircea_popescu: heh.
ozonelayer: mircea_popescu: ok. thanks. typically, options are usually in units of 100 of the underlying asset. just a convention i believe (though SEC in the us may make this required...i'm not sure)
mircea_popescu: ozonelayer from a general pov tho, the best unit is THE unit, ie 1.
mircea_popescu: if they were stacks of 100 the price'd just be higher, not like you can't stack them in 100s if you want.
ozonelayer: yea...i agree. however, the convention is well established. so, this kinda goes opposite of it. no big deal. i just buy 100 as many
mircea_popescu: yeh.

Bowjob: poor people protesting a restaurant in vancouver.. wtf
smickles: ???
Bowjob: for gentrifying the land
Bowjob: im tempted to eat at that restaurant now
Bowjob: lol
Bowjob: basically downtown east side.. is the worst part of vancouver where poor people naturally reside
Bowjob: then this new restaurant came up that the locals cant afford.. so they start protesting
mircea_popescu: lmao
mircea_popescu: are they protesting that t hey're poor or that other people are rich ?
mircea_popescu: "Protesters say the restaurant -- which offers a modern menu fusing Asian and French flavours - is gentrifying the area and the premises would be better used for housing."
mircea_popescu: lmao. they paid the rent. they get to say what the premises are best used for.
mircea_popescu: these people should be convicted to 50-100 hours of mandatory capitalism training.
mircea_popescu: fuck sensitivity, it won't get you out of the slums.
mircea_popescu: fuck gay rights and women issues and all the rest of the bs.
mircea_popescu: you go about saying "x's money should be better used for your own aggenda" you get arrested and you go to capitalism training.
Chaang-Noi: communists should be shot...
mircea_popescu: nah.
Chaang-Noi: and socalists while we are at it...
Chaang-Noi: at least in places they can vote:)
mircea_popescu: idiots should be shot. communists should just be starved to death.
smickles: shooting communists is a waste of resources
Chaang-Noi: not if they can vote
Bowjob: thats the pressing issue here in vancouver. a freaking restaurant
Bowjob: i looked at their menu.. its not that expensive compared to other restaurants here
Chaang-Noi: your poor have too much money... they should not have the energy to revolt...
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi it's not the poor revolting.
mircea_popescu: it's a bunch of uppity young kids who couldn't get into a real school
mircea_popescu: and need something to tell daddy over sunday dinner
mircea_popescu: as to where his college fund went.
mircea_popescu: can't just say "sorry dad, i'm a failure, my double major in dumbfuckery is useless"
mircea_popescu: much easier to say "society is broken1!111!"
Chaang-Noi: okay then the people who should be poor, like out of work kids are too rich...
mircea_popescu: yeah, but kinda hard to get parents to throw out the refuse they spawned.
mircea_popescu: they kinda get attached to them.
mircea_popescu: "my own kid, how could he be stupid"
Chaang-Noi: i started work at age 12, im sure my son will as well
mircea_popescu: well... sometimes it happens.
Chaang-Noi: i moved to a country were we can avoid silly things like labour laws
mircea_popescu: certainly if i ever have kids it will not be in a white country.
mircea_popescu: egypt, burma, whatever the fuck. something real.
mircea_popescu: brazil.
Chaang-Noi: burma is where i ahve had my eye for a long time, lots of opertuinity there
smickles: hmm, i guess my daughter is done for then
mircea_popescu: anything as long as it's not something run by the celebrated failures.
mircea_popescu: smickles whyssat ?
smickles: she's an american
mircea_popescu: that's gonna be a tough thing to be in a coupla decades, so
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't be too worried.
jcpham: western samoa
jcpham: already looking for land
Chaang-Noi: africa i would personally stay away from
mircea_popescu: jcpham isn't that too close ?
jcpham: middle of the pacific
jcpham: close tonz
jcpham: we've been there. i have friends there
mircea_popescu: ya but i mean culturally close.
jcpham: not really
mircea_popescu: isn't it practically a sort of puerto rico ?
jcpham: not really. not at all
mircea_popescu: (i have no idea, just asking)
jcpham: they live in opoen air huts
jcpham: sleep on mats
mircea_popescu: eternal campink

jcpham: no plumbing
jcpham: pre-paid electricity
mircea_popescu: aha
Chaang-Noi: ahh i like prepaid everything
jcpham: it's off the map as far as i'm concerned
smickles: wow, i really have no idea where my daughter will end up. I guess the best thing to teach here is wilderness survival skills
Chaang-Noi: wilderness survival skills are over rated... if we need to go there there will be way too many people
jcpham: eats lots of taro root and papaya
Chaang-Noi: just tach her how to use arms, and have lots of them
jcpham: it grows everywhere there
Chaang-Noi: taro root sucks, papaya is pretty nice
jcpham: taro chips own
Chaang-Noi: anything deep fried is good
jcpham: not sure why i like taro
jcpham: buddy is samoan, we've been there, i like it is cheap
jcpham: USD is like 5:1 their money
smickles: I think the wilderness survival skills I was taught helped me in a number of other areas, and I've only used the survival skills directly in recreational situations
MJR_III: the philippines
MJR_III: i think

MJR_III: lol
jcpham: we've been fishing for 3 days
jcpham: and eating fish
MJR_III: but seriuosly i think you could set up a nice little island in the phils
jcpham: i like to eat for free
Chaang-Noi: island in phils, watch out for pirates and muslumz... no joke
smickles: next month, we witness jcpham mad as a hatter

Bowjob: yah, muslims in the phils are fake
Bowjob: they are just innit for the beheading

jcpham: smickles i'm pretty mad already
Bowjob: the ones in phils shits and giggles when they behead someone
jcpham: i can't see how i could get crazier
Bowjob: and rythmically time their 'allah snackbar' chants witch each stab
mircea_popescu: papaya is disgusting
mircea_popescu: i'd rather eat used tampons
jcpham: hater
mircea_popescu: dude, it's obnoxious, it smells great and tastes rotten
jcpham: i'll make sure to invite you to my dirt hut and feed you papaya stew mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: i'll eat your pets.
jcpham: it'll be great, you'll sit on an old log
jcpham: it'll smell like old socks
jcpham: we can have a hut orgy
mircea_popescu: allah has a snack bar ?@
jcpham: the neighbors would lose it
jcpham: bunch of fat samoans standing around my hut in a real life circle jerk
mircea_popescu: who am i going to have an orgy with ?!
mircea_popescu: you and that dude you hooked up with ?!
jcpham: porabably the dudes
MJR_III: but i think also if you are in the phils you could start a remittance service
MJR_III: $$$
mircea_popescu: myeah. i'll have my secretary check my schedule for me.
jcpham: k cool
mircea_popescu: the dude translating mpex faq to spanish made "small mormon family" into "familia de profesionales"
mircea_popescu: i was like... yeah that's legit.
jcpham: does Mormonism translate into spanish
mircea_popescu: notrly.
jcpham: can you teach a spanish person their religion is wrong and theat a guy from America is the one true prophet
jcpham: not sure if culturally correct
mircea_popescu: some dumbass who was "reading" a language he didn't speak
mircea_popescu: and then forgot what he read and couldn't read it again
mircea_popescu: so he had to start over when he lost his original notes
jcpham: we have some really fucked up religion in America
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many self-identified "mormons" are aware they're on mormon 2.0, 1.0 having been around for about sixteen months
jcpham: Jehovah's witnesses are another classic subject
mircea_popescu: back in the 1800s
jcpham: they don't believe in christmas or birthdays
jcpham: so like jehovah girls are broken
mircea_popescu: jcpham running joke in this group of law sophomores was threatening them with prosecution for perjury
mircea_popescu: as they didn't actually witness it.
jcpham: because their parents never celebrated anything with them
mircea_popescu: don't they celebrate first period or some weird shit "?
jcpham: jehovah kids are strange
jcpham: watch yourself
smickles: lol, one of those witnesses found me with my daughter
smickles: i kept the convo full of subtle puns which indicated i was an atheist
smickles: all flew over his head
smickles: he wanted to tell me that i needed his god to be a good dad
smickles: i said something about having the natural capability
smickles: he complimented my daughter's beautiful eyes, saying that they were evidence of the spectical of god
Chaang-Noi: christans are not know to be the smarts bunch
smickles: i asked him if he noticed that they presented an evolved trait of one half of one eye being blue
Chaang-Noi: or any flavourt of org religion (but jedi)
smickles: a trait that basically proves evolution in itself by the way it presents in humans
smickles: dude had no luck converting me to his creationist ways. but I gave him a fair chance
smickles: Chaang-Noi: yeah, those fsm pirates are nutters too

Chaang-Noi: can read your own chart?
Chaang-Noi: cant*
Chaang-Noi: it measn s.dice is now worth 60% of what it was worth at its highest valuation
Chaang-Noi: so someone could theroreticaly ahve lost 40% of their welath buying at the top
toffoo: Chaang-Noi: yes MBP
Chaang-Noi: toffoo can it run linux well, thinkinga bout buying one and loading on mint 14
toffoo: would probably make most sense to keep OS X and load linux into a VMware virtual machine
Chaang-Noi: mp if you did a chart for btc the 100% would be at 74.9 and now it would be at like 95% (72.00)
Chaang-Noi: my goal is to keep an encrypted os to keep a btc wallet while i travel
Chaang-Noi: only think i need it for is btc
toffoo: OSX has native full disk encryption .. no need for linux for that
Chaang-Noi: im going to buy it at the store, how do i encrypt it?
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi this is a mkt cap chart tho. if i took the dollar total value of BTC and the dollar value of a small company and compare them
Chaang-Noi: i have not used a mac in over 20 years
Chaang-Noi: mp lol what?
toffoo: there's an option in settings .. it does it in the background while you work .. it's really easy
mircea_popescu: yeah.
Chaang-Noi: mp what i said stands unless there was share dilution
mircea_popescu: there's no price in there, it's a ratio.
Chaang-Noi: that is why i know the guy lost 40% if bought at a high, im not telling you a price he lost at, just a ratio... 40$ is a ratio
mircea_popescu: mno.
Chaang-Noi: mno means?
mircea_popescu: say today google mkt cap is 5bn and apple mkt cap is 4 bn. then that would be 80% for that day on the graph
mircea_popescu: tomorrow goog mkt cap is 6bn and apple 4.5 bn
Chaang-Noi: you cant look at it like that lol
mircea_popescu: that's 75% on graph
mircea_popescu: etc.
Chaang-Noi: your chart does not show anything abouty that]
mircea_popescu: ...
Chaang-Noi: your chart only looks at s,.dice with limited info
mircea_popescu: dude you're telling me what it does based on you having glanced at it ?
mircea_popescu: stop being so superficial wth.
Chaang-Noi: it would be silly to take that chart and then look at a google chart... you could, but the only thing you could gain in knowledge is to see if the trend down was the same or not
Chaang-Noi: ?
Chaang-Noi: i honestly belive you do not know how to read that chart...
mircea_popescu: listen. it's X item valued in btc divided by Y item divided in btc
mircea_popescu: the price has been divided out, it's just relative sizes.
Chaang-Noi: all you show in the chart however is a ratio...
mircea_popescu: yes.
Chaang-Noi: it is easy to see (assuming no share delution, or buy backs) a guy if invested at the top has lost 40%
mircea_popescu: 40% whats ?
Chaang-Noi: wealth
Chaang-Noi: in whatever currancy the market cap was figured in
Chaang-Noi: im going to assume btc
mircea_popescu: listen, if i divide a distance in meters by another distance in meters, what will the result be measured in ?
Chaang-Noi: that is why i gave you the ratio of 40%
mircea_popescu: right.
Chaang-Noi: you then asked of what
mircea_popescu: right.
Chaang-Noi: so to find that out i have to see where you started
Chaang-Noi: and i assume you started with btc
Chaang-Noi: this is basic chart read and basic maths?
mircea_popescu: yeah lol. it is pretty basic, but apparently not quite understood.
Chaang-Noi: yeah i can see that, but really its not a hard chart, look at some other real life examples and i think you can get it to click
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi you're the one that's not getting it is the problem.
Chaang-Noi: also you should not start that chart at 0 but rather the ipo price
mircea_popescu: come up with an example of such a chart, i'm curious.
Chaang-Noi: i ahve nothing to prove to up mp, you asked for my help, i gave it. take it or not, up to you
mircea_popescu: lolk.
Chaang-Noi: others here will tell you im correct in what i said if you have doubts.
mircea_popescu: that'll be just as entertaining as the original.
Chaang-Noi: yes, i agree
Chaang-Noi: maybe someone else can explain it a bit better than i, im not a good teacher.
mircea_popescu: you're a very good dunnker-krugerand tho. it compensates.

Bowjob: mhm, it could be he's planning a dump as wella ctually
Bowjob: he owns like 40k something btc
Bowjob: but i dont see why he would od that
Chaang-Noi: i doubt he dumps
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi dude, angry bs. the situation is this : i open up something for public discussion, you come up with a completely misunderstood notion of wtf it is. i tell you so.
mircea_popescu: im not angry or elated or anything else. just slightly amused.
Chaang-Noi: :)
mircea_popescu: think of it in terms of countries. there's two countries and we're measuring their power.
mircea_popescu: the smaller one goes from 40% to 80% of the bigger one during 2012
mircea_popescu: then suddenly drops back to 20% during a few months
mircea_popescu: then starts climbing up to like 60% in a few weeks.
mircea_popescu: the question is why ?!
mircea_popescu: what has happened that turned the slow uptrend into a sudden downtrend late december ?
mircea_popescu: and then what has happened to turn it back again early feb ?
Chaang-Noi: yeah trends are about the only thing you can look at here, and really they both could have lost 99% of value or gained 99% of value in the real world, this kinda of chart is not really sueful for much
Chaang-Noi: it is only usefull if you have context
mircea_popescu: well yes, if both suddenly lost 99% of value in one week that wouldn't show on the graph
Chaang-Noi: share dilution would be one thing we would need to know
mircea_popescu: only their relative evolution is shown, all the outside noise tuned out
mircea_popescu: like btc going up and down etc
mircea_popescu: there was no share dillution tho.
Chaang-Noi: if on lost 99.5% and on lost 99% just looking at the chart we would think the one that only lost 99% is better
mircea_popescu: double, actually. yes.
Chaang-Noi: i mean shares coming onto the market, when did he dump that extra 3% of the company? cuz that was 33.33% more shares traded
mircea_popescu: well, i sold 10mn packs a number of times and erik i think sold 1mn 3x
mircea_popescu: diff times.
mircea_popescu: iirc in february
cads: Hey guys, what do you think about the threatened attack against the LTC? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=153460.0
Chaang-Noi: when he sold he put a lot of downard pressure on the stock and thus the whole company valueation
mircea_popescu: and yet trend is up
Chaang-Noi: cads he needs to add 3 0s to his bounty...
mircea_popescu: cads uhm
Chaang-Noi: mp trend is up to the other stock, but mdice has lost value
Chaang-Noi: sdice
mircea_popescu: wait. to highlight the insecurity he's going to pay someone to highlight the insecurity ?
cads: evening, mircea. Hah, Chaang-Noi.
Chaang-Noi: mp it is a retarded troll who fails at life... cads should ignore him, or if not make fun of him
Chaang-Noi: mp that chart you made, with out context can not really show a whole lot of info, unless your whole world is nothing but s.dice and the other stock
cads: Chaang-Noi: yeah, sure, ignore the dude, and everyone else calls him by his initials ;)
Chaang-Noi: we need context
Bowjob: avalon just sent out a newsletter
Chaang-Noi: cads what?

Chaang-Noi: cads it wont happen this was treid 9 months ago it failed hard
mircea_popescu: the recent bitcoin misadventure has clearly shown we need at least one backup
mircea_popescu: honestly i hope more people make more alt chains

mircea_popescu: this used to be "shipped by 15th of april" eh
Chaang-Noi: well it is just a "plan"
Bowjob: Basically what he;s saying is batch 2 will arrive at the end of may
Chaang-Noi: and bfl is still 4 to 6 weeks
Bowjob: since some bullshit reason will give them another excuse
mircea_popescu: so basically avalon is going full mining farm. big surprise.
Chaang-Noi: go asicminer
Chaang-Noi: if i was avalon i would too
mircea_popescu: ya. currently #1 threat to bitcoin
mircea_popescu: larger than mtgox, if that can even be believed
mircea_popescu: larger than the weirdo devteam
Chaang-Noi: ltc is asic resistant
mircea_popescu: they're a problem.
Chaang-Noi: we might see 70% if the netwrok at two places in china if bfl fails like they might
Bowjob: so if avalon 3s dont get purchased, yifu will mine themselves
Bowjob: no mention of a vacation
Bowjob: lol
mircea_popescu: heh.
mircea_popescu: "this was the plan all along".
Bowjob: gah, so by end of may
Bowjob: sucks, i was hoping to get the best birthday present ever
Bowjob: fuck that shit.
mircea_popescu: if the western world we're sane this'd be pretty much the start of ww3.
Chaang-Noi: honestly there is no reason why they should not keep the hardware once all orders all filled, however bfl can do this for years, lol
Chaang-Noi: cant
Bowjob: " organize"
Bowjob: mean vacation
Chaang-Noi: chinese do not vacation like you or me...
Chaang-Noi: vacation means work differently,
Bowjob: bfl syndrome
Bowjob: fuck them
Bowjob: why cant we have a reputable asic vendor. that does exactly what they say they would
mircea_popescu: Shipping Time: May 5st, 2013
mircea_popescu: may 5st!
Bowjob: "a brand new SMT line in our facility. This upgrade will effectively double our production capacity, it enable us to put Avalon into the hands of our customer even faster. The new line is currently scheduled to come online during the last week of April"
Bowjob: What I don't get is.. if SMT line is scheduled to go online at the end of April..
Bowjob: and they say they will ship the majority in the middle of April
Bowjob: taht means they will only ship 300 at most in the middle of april
Bowjob: the other half at the end of april, adding extra delays and fuckups.. the "shipping date" will be May 5th, followed with 3 weeks of uncertainty
Bowjob: and followed with the actual stuff getting into customers' hands at the end of may
mircea_popescu: maybe
ZedsterX: pardon the interuption but is https://btc.penek.org/ down for everyone
mircea_popescu: doesn't load for me
ZedsterX: thx MP
Chaang-Noi: mp may 5st? lol for what?
Chaang-Noi: last half of batch 2?
Bowjob: yeah the max they can produce is batch 3
Bowjob: i mean
Bowjob: 300 units
Bowjob: for half of april, factoring the fuckups, shipping 5-10 a day
Bowjob: k, the math doesnt add up they ship a bit more than that..
Bowjob: yeah, chances are.. batch 2.5 will be at the hands of customers at the end of may
Chaang-Noi: works for me
mircea_popescu: basically bitcoin is on a countdown before avalon gets too much mining together.
mircea_popescu: well played, i must agree, throw a few scraps to the clueless westerners, enough to get them to front your capital.
mircea_popescu: unethical, but then again chinese.
Bowjob: they still have one big haul left
mircea_popescu: time is tickingaway.
Bowjob: so they will get about 2.6 million dollars
Bowjob: and makea farm for themselves
Chaang-Noi: mp i would do what they did if i had rthe skillz
Bowjob: if they dont get the 2.6, they will mine anyway
Chaang-Noi: i would stay under 50% hoowever

mircea_popescu: TomServo seems like trollish nonsense to me.
Bugpowder: mircea_popescu: I suspect we will see a rotation out of S.MPOE this month.
mircea_popescu: possibly
Bugpowder: if my intuition about MPOE performance is correct
Bugpowder: this BTC price is really tough for S.DICE to overcome though. But its good for MPOE
Bugpowder: or neutral
mircea_popescu: "close to 30 million usd notional trade this month"
mircea_popescu: sounds pretty good to me.

mircea_popescu: mpex happens to be the PERFECT way for a bank to develop it's own in house btc-fiat trading system
mircea_popescu: propped against mpex, guaranteed success.
Bugpowder: oh you...
mircea_popescu: one way to eat everyone's cake, seeing how coinbases of the world can't compete.
Bugpowder: propping the price with the ole buyout rumor...

deadweasel: the answer feels like it's going to be obvious........
mircea_popescu: deadweasel yea.
smickles: deadweasel: bitfloor was doing that, but people lost confidence in it after a theft
smickles: oh, and mpex owns all
deadweasel: mircea_popescu: is that what you are doing with the OIX?
mircea_popescu: "that" ?
deadweasel: well, no lag at mpex, 2 minutes at gox.
mircea_popescu: i got better hardware.

mircea_popescu: also http://polimedia.us/dtng/c/src/128220157798.jpg
Bugpowder: on gox
mircea_popescu: jurov nope, subsided.
deadweasel: O.BTCUSD.C750T -- if I bought one of those, what does that mean?
Bugpowder: god damn it.
Bugpowder: call struck at 75 expiring friday

deadweasel: so if I bough that, I could buy BTC at 75$ up til friday?

smickles: ;;bc,24hprc

ThickAsThieves: gox is like imma let you finish, but...
smickles: right now, it's out of the money tho
Bugpowder: but the spot price is ITM
Bugpowder: so the option is potentially underpriced
deadweasel: spot price is ITM?
Bugpowder: depending if you believe 24hprc is going to go to the spot
smickles: in the money (if that's what you're asking)
Bugpowder: spot is $76

Bugpowder: yah, you need 24vwap to hit 80.3 to make a profit from exercise
Bugpowder: though the MPOE bot always pays a time premium over the current 24hprc with its bids
deadweasel: ok, so you want your (24hvwap - 75) >= price of option?
Bugpowder: so exercise only makes sense if you have >>1000 contracts and want to dump fast, or the bot is down (last 24 hrs of the month).
deadweasel: oops, divided by the 24hrvwap
