mircea_popescu: looking forward to the woman made out of eyes, tits and ankles only.
ThickAsThieves: rawr change is bad
benkay: science is scawwy
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: you said in your article "The situation in the market was becoming macroeconomically concerning, in the following sense : major holders were done selling, the vast majority of trading action consisting of trades among newcomers brought in by the recent significant press exposure" it seems noobs were about to cause a bubble and if left "unkempt" the herd mentality could cause catostrophic issues to
mircea_popescu: a yeah. i believe so.
mircea_popescu: all the "it's going to 500" talk was putting us on the spot
mircea_popescu: correction without collapse => show of strength. no bubble can do that
mircea_popescu: no trend-only item survives the past 3 days.

mircea_popescu: lol zing
mircea_popescu: at least he processes them dood.
burnside: you always plug 'em in in the middle of the night!
ThickAsThieves: i'm sorting out
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: yes which is why as youve stated the presence of big players (as yourself) keeps the economy from having a complete collapse. i pose a scenario where the noobs become educated. what occurs when the economy is composed of more competency?
ThickAsThieves: just gotta keep my btc more spread around
mircea_popescu: the more competence the more we onw.
mircea_popescu: own*
burnside: yeah, I'd be worried about anyplace you have a lot of btc that doesn't have a manual withdrawal process honestly.
mircea_popescu: this is true.
ThickAsThieves: what about manual big selloff od stocks then?
benkay: do y'all see any use in the btc economy for entities that hold slices of private keys for users?
benkay: aka distributed wallet backup?
burnside: not sure what'cha mean. (286 remember.)
mircea_popescu: benkay the service is better offered by the guy's gf.
mircea_popescu: suppose this russian guy has a wife which wife has a sister.
mircea_popescu: he always travels with his wife and her sister.
mircea_popescu: sometimes tanja is the wife and nadja is the sister
ThickAsThieves: kinky
mircea_popescu: sometimes vice-versa.
mircea_popescu: NOW.
pgp: benkay: yes
mircea_popescu: why'd the russian guy use you to hold half his keys ?

mircea_popescu: why not give half to nadja and half to tanja ?
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.27 BTC [-]
pgp: multi-sig has many interesting applications as well
benkay: because nadja and tanja have a tendency to bitch out and cannot be depended on for professional service, other than the oral kind.
mircea_popescu: maybe
mircea_popescu: your service is publicly known tho.
mircea_popescu: the girls are private to him only.
mircea_popescu: so there's pros and cons.
benkay: secret sharing allows one to reconstruct without all shared slices, though
benkay: allowing one to leave slices with trusted relatives in addition to untrusted banks around the world
mircea_popescu: im just saying, if you're goijng to shard your key,
mircea_popescu: why use a publicly known and thus attackable holder of shards.
mircea_popescu: ah, so as a part thing.
mircea_popescu: sure.
benkay: why not use 10 publicly known holders and 10 private?
benkay: i'm looking at en-robust-ifying the thing
mircea_popescu: well... why use a holder that's known for holding ?
mircea_popescu: why not put a piece of paper in a bank locked chest say
benkay: bank is over there
benkay: i am all over world
mircea_popescu: even so.
benkay: sometimes on iss
mircea_popescu: the fact that we know you hold shards adds a risk to you as a shard holder.
benkay: sure, but shard holder ameliorates that risk by charging a fee for a useful service. some fraction of which fee should go to ops to blah blah blah
mircea_popescu: now, this may not be a show stopper, i readily grant
pgp: watch - tradtional accounting and auditing firms are going to get involved in the bitcoin security game - and insuring deposits while they're at it...
mircea_popescu: pgp i wouldn't mind working with one.
benkay: the ecosystem needs auditors and accountants.
benkay: witness ALL THE THINGS.
benkay: smickles should really get on that.
pgp: already making inroads...
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.25200001 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: i think smickles is busy making more smickles.
benkay: in addition to keysharding, i want to see merchant receipt/contract tracking as well
pgp: a practice of requiring 2/3 key to unlock an address for owner, auditor, lawyer (in case owner dies) seems like a good start
benkay: otc, but for merchants, and prettier.
pgp: you can put whatever text you want into a txn...
benkay: why put it in the blockchain
benkay: when you can use the underlying crypto?
ThickAsThieves: i'm getting fed up with conf times
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.25200001 BTC [-]
ThickAsThieves: wtf are all these asics for
benkay: what asics
pgp: .25?!?
benkay: ;)
pgp: benkay: sure
benkay: the thing would be relatively simple to implement
benkay: big text box for receipts/contracts
benkay: track all signing entities
benkay: kinda buy into claim resolution, which is not a scalable thing
pgp: interesting...
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves the asics have little to do with tx processing. they just hash.
mircea_popescu: we have a problem with nodes is what it is.
ThickAsThieves: how do we fix it
ThickAsThieves: so annoyed
jborkl: I got my stratum servers running today
ThickAsThieves: is running a node hard/costly?
jborkl: no
ThickAsThieves: can i node be used to expedite ones own transactions?
ThickAsThieves: a node*
mircea_popescu: "a well-known Silicon Valley socialite and entrepreneur"
mircea_popescu: ok, what the fuck is that ?
ThickAsThieves: i cant wait hours day trading
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves yes.
mircea_popescu: run a node, have it well connected, you'll be instamempooled.
ThickAsThieves: k where can learn to do this plz
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [HIM] 10 @ 1.9 = 19 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: um.
mircea_popescu: do you have bitcoin-qt ?

ThickAsThieves: yessir
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.25100001 BTC [-]
kakobrekla: run it :)
ThickAsThieves: thats it?
benkay: does multibit function as a node?
kakobrekla: mhm
ThickAsThieves: ok
kakobrekla: dunno benkay
ThickAsThieves: so how do i get my tx from outside services to go faster
ThickAsThieves: like from Weexchange
kakobrekla: eh?
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.25200001 BTC [+]
benkay: ha you can't do that thickasthieves
benkay: you have to be broadcasting your own txns
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves yes unless you're on a shitty connection or something
ThickAsThieves: i figured, but needed to ask
benkay: unless you can get them to send the tx to you
kakobrekla: broadcasting is the smaller part of the transactio
mircea_popescu: nah this doesn't work on the otghers. wors on your own
kakobrekla: but its dying the fastest
kakobrekla: so there will be like 5 nodes
ThickAsThieves: so what can ukto do to expedite his outgoing tx?
kakobrekla: gox, guild, deepbit and another 2
kakobrekla: soon, at this rate.
ThickAsThieves: i stopped running qt cuz it sucks
ThickAsThieves: didnt know i was he;ping the network with it on
mircea_popescu: yeah.
mircea_popescu: it does suck donkey balls.
mircea_popescu: but with people turning it off we;'re already under the red.
mircea_popescu: pretty soon network will crack up completely.
ThickAsThieves: fucking devs
jborkl: I am setting up 2 more nodes
ThickAsThieves: i'll put nodes on all my mining rigs too
mircea_popescu: jborkl if you have the option, set them up in like mongolia and shit
mircea_popescu: what i mean is, sorta-distant from the main spots
jborkl: I have 15 at least commercial internet connections across many different ip ranges
Ukto: ThickAsThieves: also, weex broadcasts txns to over 500 nodes :)
mircea_popescu: seems atm 90%+ of nodes are on the euro fiberring, on the sf-la line and on the ny-boston line
Ukto: including the major pools
mircea_popescu: Ukto then what's the spiel, no fees ?
jborkl: where I am - there are not any for 200 300 miles
mircea_popescu: great.
Ukto: mircea_popescu: the issue is that none of the pools currently prioritize by tx fee rate
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 2 @ 0.25200001 = 0.504 BTC [+]
Ukto: they just have a hard limit on how many txn's can be included per block
Ukto: so when things like sdice are being super popular etc
mircea_popescu: sure they do
Ukto: it creates a backlog of txn processing
thestringpuller: !ticker h him
assbot: [HAVELOCK:HIM] 1D: 1.90000000 / 1.9085 / 1.93000000 (16 shares, 30.53600000 BTC), 7D: 1.87000000 / 1.97486053 / 2.08000000 (114 shares, 225.13409996 BTC), 30D: 1.41000000 / 1.81479725 / 2.08000000 (730 shares, 1324.80199240 BTC)
ThickAsThieves: why wouldnt a pool prioritize by tx fees?
Ukto: i know 4 major pools that are first come first serve
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 36 @ 0.25200001 = 9.072 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: well then you know 4 idiots.
Ukto: yes
Ukto: I never said it was smart
Ukto: or with the original bitcoin intentions
Ukto: Luke-Jr even completely blocks sdice txns (last i checked)
mircea_popescu: socialists everywhere
mircea_popescu: ya but we're talking actual pools here.
Ukto: leaving a larger backlog for those to be processed
mircea_popescu: that's not how it works lol.
Ukto: but while he blocks sdice, it allows other txns to get processed at least
Ukto: oh? :)
Ukto: enlighten please
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 16 @ 0.43999999 = 7.04 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: wlel think. we havr 10k in the backlog.
mircea_popescu: luke does like 1 block a day
mircea_popescu: whether he puts in 500 txs including sdice or excluding s dice
mircea_popescu: it makes no diff, there's always 500 non sdice txns in the pool
Ukto: sure
Ukto: i didnt say he was helping or hurting
mircea_popescu: right. hence no difference
ThickAsThieves: sure you did
ThickAsThieves: hehe
Ukto: i think him doing it helps non sdice txns get through
Ukto: (when he finds a block)
mircea_popescu: maybe.
Ukto: but causes the delay later for the next pool
Ukto: just pushes it off
ThickAsThieves: this boggles my mind
ThickAsThieves: now i see why mp rants so much
mircea_popescu: you know people say that a lot ?
mircea_popescu: *after* doing some reading etc.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.2799999 BTC [+]
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 1 @ 0.28 BTC [+]
Ukto: besides
Ukto: sdice pays higher than default txs
ThickAsThieves: bitcoin is way less cool if its slower than a credit card
mircea_popescu: the fact is tho, i set mpex to pay 0.001. since then i have measured, and i had next-block inclusion for all payments
Ukto: so for the pools that prioritize based on tx fee, unless you specifically tell your client ot pay a higher tx fee than sdice (whatever it might adjust to) you will not get ahead of them
mircea_popescu: this has been going on for months now.
ThickAsThieves: i am willing to pay
mircea_popescu: as far as i can tell, fee + well connected node -> next block guaranteed.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [KCIM] 2 @ 1.179 = 2.358 BTC [-]
Ukto: ThickAsThieves: bitcoin has always been slower than credit card
thestringpuller: ThickAsThieves: what boggles your mind
Ukto: due to the confirms
Ukto: mircea_popescu: based on what you said, pools would be idiots to not include sorted by fee.
mircea_popescu: yeah.
Ukto: recent sdice txn http://blockchain.info/tx/9463b605150c30faa7b7be495a871ff9d479c7a0281785bdb7cc80a91ddeff93
ThickAsThieves: the shit hanging off of every facet of the dev and tx side of btc boggles my mind
mircea_popescu: well, it's just my experience, but it's been pretty consistent.
Ukto: 0.0012 btc is not the default txn fee
Ukto: in clients
Ukto: you have to make sure to pay higher
mircea_popescu: maybe i am loved by pools and they prioritise me otherwise ? (seems improbable)
Ukto: i am basing it off of what you said atm :)
Ukto: it also depends on time of day
Ukto: and how many txns are being added to the network
Ukto: sometimes its fine, othertimse a giant backlog is created
mircea_popescu: as far as i can see the backlog has been 5 to 10k txns for the past... 2 months ?
mircea_popescu: 5 ?
ThickAsThieves: first , the client sux, this causes people to not run nodes, then pools dont prioritize by what pays most, then even for those that do, we have services dealing in lots of btc that dont include fees at all
thestringpuller: ;;unconfirmed
gribble: Error: "unconfirmed" is not a valid command.
mircea_popescu: granted, most of those being nofee
thestringpuller: what is the command to see current unconfirmed tx
Ukto: so if your saying lower priced tx fees for your transfers are going through before highier pricesed sdice txns, then your thought that pools sort by tx fee is out the window, right?
Ukto: or are you purposefully setting higher tx fees?
mircea_popescu: Ukto i am setting .1, and that s.dice seems to have made it in fast no ?
Ukto: ThickAsThieves: http://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions
Ukto: 708 atm
Ukto: 711
jborkl: .81 downloads so fast
Ukto: and counting up
Ukto: mostly with sdice
ThickAsThieves: most people work of 6 confs though
jborkl: already one node halfway- 10 minutes
ThickAsThieves: so unconfirmed is just part of the picture
mircea_popescu: Status: Disconnected
mircea_popescu: lol at blockchain
Ukto: when your limiting txns to say 500 when generating a block
Ukto: and esp if you are sorting by fee
Ukto: unless you pay a highre fee than sdice's already higher than default fee
Ukto: you wont be included
Ukto: for at least another 1~2 blocks
ThickAsThieves: i will pay that
ThickAsThieves: easy
mircea_popescu: maybe it's my coinbases being real old ?
jborkl: it is only 1 line in the .conf file to change the fee structure
Ukto: mircea_popescu: no idea. blockchain.info is up to date
ThickAsThieves: if i'm trying to send 20btc quickly, in order to profit 10%, i dont care about paying even a .1btc fee
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 10 @ 0.44 = 4.4 BTC [+]
Ukto: jborkl: yes, but as as service, it's a huge pain to constantly change that one line and restart
Ukto: besides
Ukto: the issue isnt the fee itself
ThickAsThieves: but it is one part
Ukto: as I stated, very few high block pools sort by tx fee
jborkl: I keep mine very low, just because
ThickAsThieves: may as well solve one part at a time
Ukto: during slow times, i have tested sending tx with a 0.1btc fee
Ukto: and it still took 3 hours
Ukto: same as the 0 fee tx
mircea_popescu: this is so weird.
mircea_popescu: literally never happened to me this.
ThickAsThieves: :/
Ukto: the issue is that bitcoin needs to be able handle larger amounts of txns
Ukto: if ti continues to grow
Ukto: and this is not corrected, then bitcoin will die.
Ukto: this was teh cause of the recent fork
Ukto: pools were told to increase the size of txn announcements
Ukto: so what did some do? set ungodly highly max's
mircea_popescu: there's no such thinfg as ungodly.
Ukto: this conflicted with with a limitation in 0.8
mircea_popescu: 1mb is 1mb.
Ukto: which caused a fork
ThickAsThieves: so what can the common user do to help
jborkl: hmm, I wonder if we addnode eachother with a fee structure we like - we will broadcast and get included faster- therefore prioritizing out transactions
jborkl: our
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves post in mpoe's devs are idiots thread lol
Ukto: mircea_popescu: all pools did not set 1mb max txn lists
Ukto: thats what caused the fork
mircea_popescu: yeah.
Ukto: along with a the max set to 0.8
Ukto: the point was to increase the tx load. not limit them
Ukto: thats why there is the big update deadline
thestringpuller: so btc tx wont be free always
Ukto: btw, look at the blockchain unconfirmed list
Ukto: you will see the number dropped from 800+
thestringpuller: at some point you WILL have to pay miner fees to get confirmed?
Ukto: back to 500~600
Ukto: as a block just went out
Ukto: only taking abotu 200~300 txns with it
ThickAsThieves: its cuz i opened qt ;)
Ukto: hehe
Ukto: and if you look at that last block
Ukto: youw ill see they are mostly in order
Ukto: time wise
Ukto: not higher paid fees
Ukto: from recent txns
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla what do yo usay to an idea of giving less weight to small bets on bitbet ?
ThickAsThieves: cant they distribute the work better
mircea_popescu: like, under 0.0001 ? you only get 90% of the weight.
ThickAsThieves: like force you to process a tx in order to send one
Ukto: ThickAsThieves: thats another discussion for another day. :)
Ukto: back to coding for me :)
Ukto: but yes, it pisses me off too.
mircea_popescu: Ukto that;'s a good point as to the order, but
mircea_popescu: doesn't that reflect moreover how the miner sorted them ?
mircea_popescu: (not necessarily how they selected them)
Ukto: how the pool sorted them
ThickAsThieves: didnt mean to rage at you directly, but if including fees helps at all, i'd appreciate it
Ukto: not the miner
mircea_popescu: yes is what i meant
Ukto: yes, which goes back to my point
Ukto: that most of the pools are not sorting by txfee
jborkl: you can watch your bitcoind reject tranactions
Ukto: but by age
mircea_popescu: but listen, just because they sorted it thart way in the getwork or w/e
mircea_popescu: doesn't mean that it actually reflects the selection process
Ukto: well
Ukto: i was just looking at a txn witha higher fee
jborkl: no, t takes them as tit receives them and stomps them
mircea_popescu: if i pick girls by their brasize i will still seat them at the table by height
Ukto: that was en queue
Ukto: and was not included in the block
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu you want even more cofulzed ppl ? :)
jborkl: as it
Ukto: so obviously, it wasnt sorted by higher txn fee
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla all this dust ;/
jurov: Ukto, iirc it's not completely FCFS
Ukto: when deciding
Ukto: jurov: depends on teh pool
Ukto: 100%
mircea_popescu: do you know the sort of shit that happens when i have to pay out 500 BTC ?
Ukto: each do it their diff ways
jurov: miners have by default some space reserved to no-fee txs
Ukto: mircea_popescu: keep in mind, I host and help with ozcoin :)
kakobrekla: ya well ppl will still bet dust even with 90%
mircea_popescu: i am aware yeh
Ukto: and i work with alot of other pool operators due to hashpower
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla you think ?
kakobrekla: i think half wouldnt even notice
mircea_popescu: gah
jurov: and txfee can be changed on the fly, no need to restart
jurov: you didn't knew about bitcoind settxfee?
Ukto: jurov: yes, but not ona per-send unless you do a custom raw tx
Ukto: jurov: sending rpc calls to bitcoind to constantly try to change the txn fee per client send leaves bad things to possibly happen
Ukto: its not like an sql transaction
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu i could do it so there is no bet accepted if its not funded by at least N (can come in several txes or w/e)
Ukto: i dont know how many user syou have constatnly withdrawing, but I tend to get a few about the same time every few days
Ukto: usually because something is happening in the world
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [HIM] 2 @ 1.9 = 3.8 BTC [-]
Ukto: but the method for handling this, and letting users throw whatever amoutn they want at a tx fee is coming with the new weex relesae

toffoo: seems like this Leandro guy was like the combined zhoutong + pirateat40 of Brazil,
mircea_popescu: yeah.
toffoo: and apparently getting away with it,
mircea_popescu: yeah.
toffoo: because the Brazilians are like begging for him back
toffoo: the situation probably hasn't gotten the attention it deserves because of the portuguese factor,
toffoo: but smells like he should earn a prominent position on your scam list sometime soon
mircea_popescu: toffoo well, as far as i'm concerned :
mircea_popescu: the brazillians haven't bothered to join #bitcoin-assets.
mircea_popescu: what do i care about them ?
mircea_popescu: certainly will make it on the list volume 2, fwtw.

prof7bit: this calculation method is very intransparent and convoluted, why not choose a simpler and more intuitive calculation?
jurov: what is intransparent and convoluted?
jurov: for me it feels right. just have to remind myself to always check the weight
jurov: if it's too low, abstain form betting
mircea_popescu: prof7bit because this one happens to be fair.
prof7bit: how is the weight calculated, why does this factor even exist, why not just calculate the ratio of total winning side / total losing side?
mircea_popescu: not all bets have weight.
mircea_popescu: but those that do have it to reflect the fact that it's more risk to claim a girl is pregnant in her first week than in her last.
jurov: weight goes down linearly in time
prof7bit: what is the maximum weight and when is it consdered "low", why not ue a percenage instead of 8 digit numbers

error4733: i miss the AM boat, shame

kakobrekla: >. I have no qualms about what EskimoBob did so long as he pays for it, one way or another. And a 10% return in a little over a month is fine with me. I've evaluated his business plan and I rather like the little setup he has going. It works like this. Either he makes me rich, or he turns out to be a scammer and I get the last laugh. I could care less either way.
kakobrekla: omg this is rich
mircea_popescu: wait what?
kakobrekla: also this >EskimoBob is receiving regular scheduled distributions on his investment along with all my other former shareholders. Further, I own some shares of ART. In short, EskimoBob works for me now, Augustocroppo, and in my books that's the way it should be.
kakobrekla: quote from usagi
kakobrekla: both

kakobrekla: lol
kakobrekla: i dont even....
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: well so good for them then
mircea_popescu: BTC has gone from $10 to $100, and ART lost 98.41% of it's investor's money. To point out the obvious, the expected loss was 90%, not 98.41%. Losing that extra 8.41% is much, much larger than it seems. Because accounting for the fluctuation in currency prices, ART went on to lose 84.1% of it's value.
mircea_popescu: Please explain how you lost 84.1% of your investor's money, or (at current exchange prices) over $60,000.
mircea_popescu: this is pretty good
kakobrekla: yup
thestringpuller: I'm about to hire Yakuza to collect my coin from Usagi
thestringpuller: "But that is water under the bridge now. EskimoBob is receiving regular scheduled distributions on his investment along with all my other former shareholders." <- is a lie
jurov: i think hiring psy would be sufficient

mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> the payments were not regular and have ceased without any warning or explanation except when probed << sorta like tradehill ?
kakobrekla: no that was the old company you silly!
thestringpuller: the tradehill people vanished
thestringpuller: but usagi is still trying to "make a name for himself"
mircea_popescu: no they didn't vanish, bitcoin scamdation people are trying to push kenna's new scam
mircea_popescu: well, were. i think they got scared off meanwhile.
kakobrekla: why do you think so?
kakobrekla: the scared off part
KRS1: there will be a gox announcement about alternative currencies next week?

mircea_popescu: kakobrekla because they seem to have abandoned the promotion effort.
kakobrekla: hmm
mircea_popescu: KRS1 i'll bet you there won't be.
kakobrekla: or they are just plain incompetent
kakobrekla: its gonna be all over once i manage to slam btc/usd in mt4 anyway.
jurov: really, i wouldn't put it past them trying to solve their problems
jurov: by throwing in another virtual currency on bitcoin side

bowjob: s
thestringpuller: HIM started at ~4.6 before the split?
thestringpuller: jeezus
