mircea_popescu: <jurov> lol reptilia wants to outdo mp... by posting pics of girls? hahahaha << that thread is epic.
mircea_popescu: SlipperySlope the way this works is, mpoe results are published the weekend after close. i usually try and so far have managed to publish within 1-2 hours of actual close.
mircea_popescu: then the results sit for a day, if anyone finds errors or has q's or w/e.
mircea_popescu: so reasonably anyone depending on mpoe payouts on the end of a month would be making payments no sooner than 24 hours after results published.
mircea_popescu: <ThickAsThieves> is there a problem or just waiting til Monday or such? << bitcoincharts was migrating servers or w/e

KRS1: was going to ask him myself..idk
KRS1: <ukru> dub: What channel is this luke-jr conversation taking place in - bitcoinb-otc ?
KRS1: idk not much speed/power going on there i think
Luke-Jr: Chaang-Noi: ltc scrypt is super-weak to FPGAs
Luke-Jr: Chaang-Noi: even without RAM
Chaang-Noi: it seems silly to me that someone would go to the trouble to make a bunch of fpgas just to attack a coin and not mine for profit
Luke-Jr: just a bitstream for existing bitcoin fpgas
Chaang-Noi: i kinda doubt someone go to that trouble to kill litecoin when they could make massive oney
Luke-Jr: well, they plan to do both :p
Chaang-Noi: well they will need a shit load of fpgas anyway
Luke-Jr: maybe a few more if more GPUs switch
Chaang-Noi: 10 fpgas can out do 1000's if not 10,000s gpus
Luke-Jr: well, we'll see when it's done
maximian: luke-jr: i missed some of the conversation - is this attack underway or will it be soon?

Chaang-Noi: even if it was going to do something its like a week away
mircea_popescu: i mean, on the face of it : he seems to have a silver broker business or something.
mircea_popescu: instead of being sane he's been making himself this assclown all over the forum (way before this supernode thing, if you read his history)
Chaang-Noi: i think he just made like a shit load of money and thinks it will keep going up at this rate
Chaang-Noi: if he bought his 2400 coins at $10 thats a good return for a few months
mircea_popescu: he bought his coins by selling silver and buying in the 1-200 range
Chaang-Noi: maybe he just expects it to go to crazy, he said 300$ for mBTC in 2014
Chaang-Noi: thats like what 20k usd per coins? something silly...
Chaang-Noi: maybe he is trying to be a btc player but is just too noob to know wtf he is doing
mircea_popescu: there. if he didn't sell during the collapse, he has some coins bought at 70ish
Chaang-Noi: he said he did not sell at the 200 but told others too
mircea_popescu: i mean, if he didn't sell in a panic back in march when btc collapsed to 50,
mircea_popescu: then he might still have 2, heck, 2.5k btc bought at 72
mircea_popescu: which is a pretty decent gains, whatever, 100k usd or what is it
Chaang-Noi: yeah i remember him talking about buying them at 70ish
Chaang-Noi: he was trying to get someone to buy for him
Chaang-Noi: i wondered if he was a scammer at the time, guess not
Chaang-Noi: its in the now locked wall observer thread
mircea_popescu: it's just if we follow his own declarations there's a coherent construction that can be made.
Chaang-Noi: he could not even prove he had 13 btc, and lost it to a troll, that was fucking lulz
Chaang-Noi: im not sure what his conferance is really about, other than showing off how rich he/we are
mircea_popescu: well basically mpoe-pr was saying he's trying to copy mine
mircea_popescu: not necessarily a bad idea but he's going assbackwards about things
Chaang-Noi: i think iv seen the guy on the far left
mircea_popescu: next to her is my cfo and next to her is my lead counsel.
mircea_popescu: and in the top pic right under me woman behind chair is martha mcculler, my cto
mircea_popescu: i guess this is the only biz in bitcoin with more women than men involved or some shit.
Chaang-Noi: what about the brothels that take btc?
mircea_popescu: before the btc brothel, everyone in bdsm was convinced there exist these magical dungeons "in europe"
mircea_popescu: for some reason everyone thinks everything they can dream up is in europe. sorta like a modern day xanadu
Chaang-Noi: iv seen an advertisemnt, could have been a hoax
Chaang-Noi: i was just looking to see what btc operations were on tor
Chaang-Noi: evidently some freelancers take btc too
mircea_popescu: it's weird tho, pretty much the money trail is the only way to make a prostitution bust stick

benkay: i'm trying to highlight the double standard of "no pro-grade team called out on site, where team is expected to be called out" vs the MPEx approach which is "MPEx is run by someone well versed in power dynamics and getting people to do things. trust him to select the right people to do things."

truff1es: trades should be concerned about separation of funds and profits imo
mircea_popescu: in other words : none of this is a secret, it's known by people who care to know as it were.
benkay: but if I say, 'dear mircea_popescu, where would I go to learn about the amazing team you've assembled to run your business?' your answer is 'do some research, child'
assbot: [BTCTC] [S.DICE-PT] 1 @ 0.002753 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: you do see why dominant position would ensure one such luxury
benkay: which induces a bit of culture shock, in that i generally expect people to be proud of the team they work with, and eager to show that they're above board and real grownups etc.

mircea_popescu: after all, i'm not proving myself to random unknown noob on the forum
mircea_popescu: if he doesn't trust me that's pretty much of no import. if i don't trust him that's a serious impairment on his future.
thestringpuller: we should drop this exchange nonsense and get into the lingerie business yo
benkay: I guess I'm just bemused by the difference in approach towards image in your area.
benkay: "but i lols so powerful image is nothing"
benkay: big American companies are obsessed with image.
benkay: big American investors are obsessed with image.
benkay: image = f(transparency and other shit)
mircea_popescu: not really, no. but anyway. it isn't/never was a matter of "do some research child". in the sense that i answered if asked, but in general stuff is known.
benkay: so returning to culture shock, I'm accustomed to things being indexed instead of known
benkay: and you're endeavoring to write new rules, I get it.
ThickAsThieves: benkay, i suspect mp's people would prefer their privacy over "image"
mircea_popescu: it's an issue here, i mean : for years the ONLY way you could get anyone with any sort of license to even consider bitcoin
mircea_popescu: is if you swore on dead saints you will never release their name
benkay: so this veers into philosophy and prognostication, but how much longer can anyone expect any information to remain unindexed?
mircea_popescu: this because being a financial professional is highly regulated, they'd have to get an ok from their compliance officer,
benkay: consider bitcoin what?
mircea_popescu: benkay indefinitely in principle. unless something happens to show me the model is fundamentally flawed, i think it will carry on forever.
benkay: but if you hire them and their compliance officer?did you contract with existing financial firms to do accounting and backoffice etc?
benkay: also I hate asking questions that have been answered already. aversion to repetition and all that.
mircea_popescu: no listen. the year is 2011. i get excited about this new btc thing. i know what it needs to have a chance. i know i need help. i know whose help i need.
mircea_popescu: i talk to these people. well... they can't get involved.
benkay: why can't they get involved? risking their licensure?
benkay: in the us? to an extent. in romania? no clue.
ThickAsThieves: I'm not sure why eother of you think this conversation will go anywhere
benkay: mp knows i'm actually trying to learn stuff
mircea_popescu: benkay basically, it's a team of people with various types of licenses, a boss, a compliance officer and some more sdupport roles.
mircea_popescu: the rule - simplified - is that nobody can get involved into ANYTHING related to their day job even vaguely
benkay: got it. so everyone's doing this as a side job?
mircea_popescu: people (actual people in this chan) have been sacked for nonsense like, telling a reporter they make a lot of money and are living the life.
mircea_popescu: now. the compliance officer is NEVER going to ok something like "bitcoin". because he only ok's on positive factual knowledge it's ok.
mircea_popescu: so, to round this up : for all the bullshit "we're getting ws involved" coming out of purely puff style start-ups like coin-whatever,

benkay: that makes a startling amount of sense.
mircea_popescu: that's as to why you will likely never know who's on my short list of people i talk to / scream at / with on macroeconomic topics, finance etc.
mircea_popescu: now, the coders are often uninterested in talking to the public.
mircea_popescu: other than that, some people don't care, which is why you get the names/mugs of some people.
benkay: and you anticipate maintaining the privacy wall indefinitely?
mircea_popescu: since i'm doing it it's not 0. unless some sort of obvious 1 hits me over the head
ThickAsThieves: so at this get together, did some people not tell others who they were?
mircea_popescu: some people met in person lol. some haven't. each his cup of tea
benkay: 0 information leakage is a secret kept by 1 person. some information leakage happens when more than 1 person knows stuff. eventually, all information will leak. infinity?
mircea_popescu: ya, eventually all information will leak which is why you know who killed kennedy or w/e

benkay: everyone has the right to question
truff1es: i thought he wanted to know their level of experience or image..
benkay: expressed shock at attitude of "who are you" when we know, like, MP
ThickAsThieves: sometimes my words mean more than what the dictionarys defines them as
truff1es: even though it made mp look less of an ass to me, still gonna throw in my jabs

jurov: ;;calc 37821006095/500000000
jurov: why my fkn code insists on 39 satoshi?
mircea_popescu: jurov maybe an idea is to get a limited hedging involved.
mircea_popescu: as in, buy some options on the same package as the bond. maybe everyone buying shares gets to vote which way to go, calls or puts
jurov: and then vote when they should be sold/exercised.. yeah
jurov: (that was ironic yeah)
ThickAsThieves: I wanted to do an options fund, but current pricing makes it seem like it'd most likely be a loser as well
jurov: i had some preliminary idea with smickles to have alternative bot
jurov: that could also hedge per option sold
jurov: but he's not around anymore
mircea_popescu: i am suspecting the bot is exactly right because everyone agrees price is making them lose money
assbot: [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 1 @ 1.2551 BTC [+]
ThickAsThieves: but opportunity for profit for both bond holders and option buyers has been very minimized
mircea_popescu: if past data is any indication, say a 200% upswing or 60% downswing causes losses of about 25%
mircea_popescu: so then you need calls that will make 250 btc if price goes up 3x

After Ms. Chan negotiated with them, they lowered the amount of requested fre

jurov: I was operating at a peak $200k per month burnrate at that moment, so just out of curiosity I calculated, how large a stash of bitcoins would be needed, to keep up such a spending permanently.

jurov: yes, but i don't see anything about this burn rate theory
kakobrekla: I have currently increased the size of my organisation, and reserved some prime resources (such as the most expensive by far hotel suite in Finland) for my exclusive use. My burn rate is currently about $200,000 per month if I continue at this level. It may sound like much, but measured hourly, it is a more understandable $278 (about 2,000mBTC). Since most of the resources are contracted at a daily rate (such as the hotel) or even hourly (
ThickAsThieves: i thought i had it all in my settings already, but now i also need to know how to change my pass
kakobrekla: (most of the staff, taxi, etc.), I can adjust the burn rate in quick order if need be. I plan on spending at this rate until midnight (8.5 more hours), and keep the room till noon, tomorrow. After that my organisation will be readjusted at about $25 per hour (about 200mBTC).
jurov: yes. this should be teached in personal finance classes

mircea_popescu: KRS-1 i will gladly hack bitcoin on wednesday for a hamburger today.
KRS-1: usually i charge a bj but a burger will do on a sunday
KRS-1: wtf is that thing on taaki's head
mircea_popescu: @DRUDGE_REPORT 30m SHOCK POLL: Americans fear government more than terror.
KRS-1: oh wow that was a popeye reference..woa..long time
KRS-1: yeah, people here in the states are very reprehensive about our government. I heard that our Homeland Security department has been hording up ammunition..makes you wonder why them?
dub: someone please shoot amir in th eface
KRS-1: How are things in Romania? I have been thinking of an exit strategy for years. Germany keeps coming to mind.
ThickAsThieves: i feel wrong judging him superficially, but it's not like his words helped
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves don't worry, we've been judging him unsuperficially for years.
mircea_popescu: it's just that in some cases what's deep down is equal with what's skin deep
mircea_popescu: (Pls somebody sell us more Goxmoney, we are out, we can pay intl wire in 2 days, spot-3%!!)
KRS-1: From what I understand gazpacho is more or less the national soup of Romania. Is this true?
mircea_popescu: wait, so the great supernode is out of cash burnrate of 200k a year for the next 8.5 hours ?
KRS-1: Amazing the strange views we have of other countries.
mircea_popescu: there's tripe soup, a chicken and homemade noodle-like thing soup and others that are popular.
KRS-1: oh thought that was russian
KRS-1: I just read the wiki on Romanian cuisine, I think the only thing I would like is the plum brandy.
KRS-1: Hmm..probably, it just sounds so different than whatever I've been used to eating. I have a pretty open mind approaching different cuisines. The only one I could never like is Indian food.
KRS-1: I'd definately do well in Japan- I love sushi/sashimi, although they eat some pretty weird stuff over there. If I ever have to leave the U.S.A., Japan is on the radar for me also.

KRS-1: lol probably..as the years go on, I notice the food has gotten much worse. Many consider us the "bread basket" of the world too..eh.
KRS-1: Our "fast food" is the worst.
orkaa: at least you have fastfood
KRS-1: From what I understand lately they inject beef with dyes to appear red, not only that our livestock is cloned and drugged with all kinds of chemicals..you can actually taste the difference between real meat.
KRS-1: It doesnt even cook right.
orkaa: if i went out this moment, i would only have 2 options

dub: nobody considers america the bread basket of the world
mircea_popescu: somalia has better food, slovenia better looking women
KRS-1: sorry- you are right, "its been said" that America is the bread basket of N. America
mircea_popescu: this because starvation after the age of 12 or so is actually beneficial.

KRS-1: my view of the world is fsked

orkaa: dub, i'd rather pick germany
orkaa: finland has no sun
KRS-1: lately there is a growing fear that we're in serious debt to China and they are asking that civilians be disarmed. Our Homeland Security department is hording ammunition (Who in the hell are they going to use it against except us?).. Much doubt about our currency..security..
dub: germany has germans which are only tolerable in small doses
KRS-1: I think we've become the fat pig that can't even breathe under our own weight.
mircea_popescu: KRS-1 just go travelling about the world, see where you like it.

mircea_popescu: "how did that woman know amir's name? he's anonymous obviously!"
mjr___: how could they write that? did no one say, "wait, i know his name!"
mircea_popescu: "Bitcoin likely has a long way to go before regulators step in and start controlling the market, and once it does get there it may not be for the right reasons. "
mircea_popescu: right. because it's clear and established that anyone gives a shit about "Regulators"
