kakobrekla: we all depend on blockchain ;)

thestringpuller: You depend on MPOE-PR for you PR. You have a board of directors you refer to for advice as quoted here: "Unfortunately the hordes of get-rich-quick noobs allied with the howling incompetence of so called .exchanges. have prevailed" it is implied this "we" is a collective.

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: I misquoted I'm sorry. I meant the latter.
thestringpuller: "We've been working hard..." is the key phrase
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller no i get that part. but what's me having a board / employees to do with the group mindset ?
thestringpuller: Don't you all have to agree? Don't you bounce ideas off each other? Or is that still technically individualism?
taub: those groups are formed voluntarily
thestringpuller: When I think of pure individual contribution I think of people like Tesla.
taub: it's not a "everyone has to do their share or else" kinda deal
mircea_popescu: but what's "pure individual contribution" to do with anything ?
ThickAsThieves: i think mp's point may be when individuals release power of problem solving to a group
mircea_popescu: listen, there's kids sitting togetgher in a class. this is ideologically neutral.
mircea_popescu: there's kids working on the same homework. this is also ideologically neutral.
ThickAsThieves: or maybe rely on group thought?
mircea_popescu: if those kids were to go to the teacher and say "We're not doing our homework and you can't punish us cause you'd hacve to punish the whole class", that's socialist bs.

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: there is no difference is there? The group came up, with Max Keiser as their defacto leader, "We can pull ourselves up by our belts", whereas that is a physical impossibility, yet people believed it anyways because other people "said it was so". No?

mircea_popescu: dude copumpkin is a twitter badass. check out what he dug up
mircea_popescu: http://finallyfeminism101.wordpress.com/2007/10/19/sexism-definition/
mircea_popescu: Sexism is both discrimination based on gender and the attitudes, stereotypes, and the cultural elements that promote this discrimination. Given the historical and continued imbalance of power, where men as a class are privileged over women as a class (see male privilege), an important, but often overlooked, part of the term is that sexism is prejudice plus power. Thus feminists reject the notion that women can be sexis
mircea_popescu: t towards men because women lack the institutional power that men have.
mircea_popescu: also they reject e=mc2 as a sexed equation,
mircea_popescu: because it privileges the speed of light over other speeds that are much more important to us.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ho hum. there's a whole dark underworld of this crud, esp. in the U.S.; and the perpetrators are often salaried academics and their flunkies.
mircea_popescu: salaried pseudoacademics

mircea_popescu: whiplash can be a serious problem for this position, so i guess it implicitly is a bet against whiplash
mircea_popescu: course... the bot could be closing him the other way too, ie, to protect itself. and since whiplash can go both ways
mircea_popescu: i suppose technically it's a bet that the bot closes correctly.
mircea_popescu: for an unspecified value of "correctly"
ThickAsThieves: i shoulda out bid the bot for the calls if i wanted some

Couldn't he sell those puts, dump 5000btc into mostly his own bids, driving price lower so he can now buy more btc at the new lower price? As long as he doesnt sell so low that he triggers the bot to excercise, he would be leveraging the btc to get more btc

jcpham: TL;DR: Here's what happened. When a password reset is submitted, the user receives a random URL by email containing a random 21 letter string. The algorithm used was bad, so the random string could be brut-forced.

Framedragger: benkay: sure, unless you / or your hire really know(s) what you/they're doing. running bitcoind under multiple layers of virtualization/isolation (e.g. bsd jails + virtualbox + chroot) is a start
Framedragger: at the very least, that way you at least may attempt to evaluate your risks, possible attack vectors etc. not with cloud hosting / whatever - parts of the hosting infrastructure remain hidden from the client (or their implementations). which generally sucks when somebody discovers that times have changed and some of those hosted machines are now storing highly valuable assets

tiberiusiv: would have another large losing month
tiberiusiv: and he did.
tiberiusiv: mircea popescu will end up losing/stealing more bitcoins then pirate ever dreamt of
thestringpuller: he's not pokceting coins dude
tiberiusiv: he sells worthless shares.
tiberiusiv: even if hes not pocketing bondholder coins
thestringpuller: they pay out pretty much the same dividends every month...
tiberiusiv: his risk management is so bad that he will be out of funds
tiberiusiv: to continue MPOE
tiberiusiv: thestringpuller are you stupid?
thestringpuller: MPOE doesn't keep any cash on hand
tiberiusiv: MPOE has lost HUGE
tiberiusiv: in the last 60 days alone.
tiberiusiv: either mircea is faking losses to steal bondholders coins
thestringpuller: It lost bondholder money
tiberiusiv: or hes one dumb fuck
thestringpuller: not any money of it's own
mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178535.0
mircea_popescu: betbtcnow.com ? never heard of it.
tiberiusiv: yea obviously. it has no money
tiberiusiv: why would scammer mircea risk his own money
thestringpuller: so your point is bondholders put up capital, .23~ loss per coin
tiberiusiv: MPOE has no "money of its own"
thestringpuller: = scam
tiberiusiv: bond holders have lost over 50%
tiberiusiv: in the last 60 days alone
tiberiusiv: mircea fakes trades in order to stimulate bids for his shitty stock
tiberiusiv: as he owns 90%+ of the float
tiberiusiv: everytime he sells a piece of the float its free money to him
thestringpuller: proof of faking trades?
tiberiusiv: um theres no one in here trading them?
tiberiusiv: its like a handful of people.
thestringpuller: anonymous shareholders != scam
tiberiusiv: mircea is running a textbook boiler room
tiberiusiv: there arent any shareholders.
tiberiusiv: its just mircea
tiberiusiv: hence why he still controls over 90% of float
tiberiusiv: he needs to get bids in to sell into
tiberiusiv: hence why he has the options bs going.
tiberiusiv: to show activities.
tiberiusiv: but mircea has lost more in the last 60 days then his ventures have EVER made in profit
thestringpuller: dude you're making bs claims with no evidence
tiberiusiv: theres plenty of evidence.
thestringpuller: in terms of faking tarades
tiberiusiv: mircea is a fraudster
tiberiusiv: he fucked over people in here too
tiberiusiv: like bugpowder
tiberiusiv: by cancelling trades out
thestringpuller: Bugpowder is up 1500%

tiberiusiv: he honestly believes his options scam is actually influencing btc price.
thestringpuller: because it's not?
tiberiusiv: um losing 30,000 bitcoins in 60 days
tiberiusiv: is a failure to me.
thestringpuller: how?
tiberiusiv: he wont have enough bitcoins if losses continue
tiberiusiv: MPOE will shut down either way
thestringpuller: dude MPOE doesn't hold capital
tiberiusiv: unless hes lieing and just pocketing the coins
thestringpuller: so he won't run out of money
tiberiusiv: and rinse repeat
tiberiusiv: yes they do they hold bondholder capital.
tiberiusiv: thats what the bond gambles with.
tiberiusiv: DUH
tiberiusiv: yes he will unless he finds more suckers to give him bitcoins
thestringpuller: dude the bondholder list is huge
tiberiusiv: no it isnt.
tiberiusiv: why are you still tallking?
jcpham: apparently someone just sent 40 btc to SD in -otc and lost it
thestringpuller: because you're full of shit

benkay: thestringpuller: http://polimedia.us/trilema/2013/mpoe-march-2013-statement/
benkay: mircea is 68K of 84K in bondholder capital
benkay: only 80.9%
benkay: and this month, only 6.4 kbtc in bonds were sold
benkay: but at 12.5%
benkay: that's a pretty steep rate
benkay: needs to be, to induce people to put up bonds that are almost guaranteed to take huge writedowns
mircea_popescu: benkay only 6.4 in bonds were needed.
deadweasel: projected expenses, right?
benkay: how is necessary bond capital determined? the bot says "I want to underwrite bonds!" and then does so?
mircea_popescu: retroactively. looks how much exposure it had at the point it had the most exposure.
tiberiusiv: benkay hahah
tiberiusiv: deadweasel projected expenses?|
tiberiusiv: are you fucking stupid.
tiberiusiv: how can you project losses from bitcoin volatility.
tiberiusiv: the price can go swing 50% either way
tiberiusiv: mircea popescu LOSES money when bitcoin is volatile
tiberiusiv: which is like 80% of the time
tiberiusiv: mircea the fraud/scammer had to put a 12.5% rate in order to get more greedy idiots to give him bitcoins
benkay: nobody's modeling anything
benkay: nobody's writing this shit up
tiberiusiv: no shit
benkay: it's just a bunch of opionions flying back and forth on irc
tiberiusiv: hes a fraud
benkay: you have a claim
tiberiusiv: needs the activity to stimulate bids for worthless mpex shares
tiberiusiv: that he sells
tiberiusiv: CLASSIC boiler room scheme
tiberiusiv: hence why he does it out of lawless romania where he is untouchable
benkay: so, what would be a good metric for evaluating this claim?
tiberiusiv: what claim? that mircea owns 90%+ of the float and he needs bids to dump into
Framedragger: "lawless romania" haha right
tiberiusiv: romania is the fraud capital of the world for a reason
tiberiusiv: you can buy police/judges quite easily
xire: dun dun dun dun dun da da
xire: here in romania, we make own rules
tiberiusiv: mircea is an egomaniac who wont admit to mistakes
Framedragger: kinda need citations to support these claims, only because ISPs do not prosecute scriptkiddies there does not mean much
tiberiusiv: citations?
tiberiusiv: its the internet fraud capital of the world.
tiberiusiv: go fucking get your own citations
tiberiusiv: a cop costs $200

jcpham: so tiberiusiv do you know mircea_popescu
jcpham: i'm curious about your motivations
jcpham: normally people are vocal about this sort of thing have some one else pulling the strings, so to speak
jcpham: so it seems odd, unfounded, not genuine.
tiberiusiv: right so its a conspiracy now
deadweasel: thestringpuller!!! it's you!
tiberiusiv: you a mircea cheerleader
jcpham: not really. fuck him
jcpham: i don't know him
deadweasel: ^
deadweasel: ditto
jcpham: but i am curious about your motivations
jcpham: at this point
tiberiusiv: i dont have any
tiberiusiv: merely pointing out how his boiler room scam works
jcpham: are you sure about that?
tiberiusiv: mircea needs bids to sell his worthless shares mpex.
jcpham: i'm going to believe you for now i guess
benkay: what about s.dice? is that a scam as well?
deadweasel: bitcoins at any price over 8$ are a scam, go tell #bitcoin-anal about it
jcpham: but your outspoken nature on romanians is highly suspect
benkay: so are MP's on "niggers"
tiberiusiv: benkay: sdice is shady but hard to tell if its a scam or not
mircea_popescu: pfff.
benkay: just elbowing you
tiberiusiv: mircea is a nigger himself
jcpham: smh
tiberiusiv: voorhees does hold a huge par tof the float
tiberiusiv: he loves dumping
mircea_popescu: so bitcoin is a scam or what
benkay: sdice is an awesome example of what happens in economies that think they're unregulatable
jcpham: i think it might be a scam mircea_popescu
tiberiusiv: bitcoin cant be a scam as it does not need endles new bidders
mircea_popescu: jcpham brb gotta post on my blog.

jurov: benkay, luke-jr promises to 51% litecoin

benkay: why?
jurov: supposedly it users scrypt wrongly and prone to fpgas
dub: because alt coins are bad
dub: and bitcoin needs more drama
benkay: let's all waste the one asset we never get more of
jurov: maybe bitcoin became sentient AI and hates competitors and it's hungry for drama
jurov: and miners are his minions
mircea_popescu: <benkay> why? << because he'd like people to think he still has miner relevance.
mircea_popescu: i guess in the end he'll attack ppcoin or something
dub: kinda surprised he hasnt
jurov: iirc ppcoin uses merged mining with btc
dub: no it doesnt, or he would have

ezdiy: i mean, his bucketshop has been basically printing money
kakobrekla: what?
ezdiy: it made no sense to kill it
ezdiy: unless he got bored with it or something
mircea_popescu: ezdiy nah, zhoutong wriote it, then brought it "bitcoin consultancy" "experts"
ezdiy: mircea_popescu: i know
mircea_popescu: who supervised the next two hackjs and leaked the code
mircea_popescu: a ok
ezdiy: mircea_popescu: what is interesting the speculation which follows up
mircea_popescu: anyway, they were actually losing money with it.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 1950 @ 0.00073244 = 1.4283 BTC [-]
kakobrekla: were they?
ezdiy: from what i gather its been extremely profitable before it was sold to intersango :)
ezdiy: i mean
ezdiy: with spreads like 10%
ezdiy: you simply cant lose money
mircea_popescu: you gather wrongly.
mircea_popescu: there's emails leaked showing zhoutong taking no salary because they had losses.
ezdiy: sure
ezdiy: i'm talking before intersango took over
mircea_popescu: overall it probably never made enough to cover the sum total of hacks.
kakobrekla: im guessing losses was cause gox
ezdiy: after that i suspect zhoutong just asset stripped it
ezdiy: kakobrekla: yeah, the "hacks"
ezdiy: i mean
ezdiy: you dont just run with the money like some low life crook
ezdiy: you just claim you were hacked in bitcoin world :)
rexcrypto: what happened to the kid ? I heard about a mysterious "investor" putting 50K to "insure" bitfinex loans
kakobrekla: accually im suprised tux is still alive
rexcrypto: they took a loss during the recent volatile market, and eat it
mircea_popescu: rexcrypto sounds like bs and how is bitfinex related rly ?
ezdiy: rexcrypto: i'd not be surprised if he's alive and well, and pulling the strings
kakobrekla: i mean how much one must owe to get a hit
kakobrekla: on him/her
ezdiy: kakobrekla: to get a hit?
kakobrekla: ?
rexcrypto: isn't bitfinex using the same source code ?
ezdiy: rexcrypto: yes
kakobrekla: ezdiy to wack him
ezdiy: rexcrypto: however its not as simple as that
ezdiy: rexcrypto: the house must be constantly adjusted to not lose money
kakobrekla: 1mio usd ? 10 mio usd ? 100 mio?
ezdiy: i suspect only zhoutong could do that without throwing off people with outrageous spreads
ezdiy: kakobrekla: to get a hitman to the tune 100k imo
ezdiy: kakobrekla: its not imo about the money, but knowing the right people
jurov: not even a hitman
jurov: frozen account, etc.

ezdiy: kakobrekla: thats like 2 years ago
kakobrekla: so he holds like 3mio
kakobrekla: of other peoples money
kakobrekla: nothing compared to what bitfloor did
ezdiy: rexcrypto: i dont think hes in directly
kakobrekla: and they want to eat him alive
kakobrekla: aint that interesting.

ezdiy: rexcrypto: yup
ezdiy: other than being in ruby, the bitcoinica code is actually pretty decent
ezdiy: the leaked version has some bugs so you can beat the house pretty quickly, that seems to be fixed on bitfinex now :(
