tg2 has anybody put any thought into a bitcoin insurance company? [02:09]
tg2 not in the sense that "oh we'll replace your bitcoins if they get stolen or lost" type of stuff [02:09]
dexX7 but? [02:10]
tg2 but for insuring companies that are traded [02:10]
dexX7 ? [02:10]
neilol like a credit default swap [02:10]
neilol i guess [02:10]
dexX7 ah [02:10]
neilol need a derivative market [02:10]
tg2 would make sense [02:10]
tg2 you'd have to evaluate the business being insured [02:10]
neilol might be tough to get someone to take the other side [02:10]
tg2 figure out a premium that makes sense [02:10]
benkay which companies would you insure, tg2 ? [02:11]
dexX7 well, there are afaik a few who want to open an insurance serivce.. even this twobitsidiot [02:11]
tg2 any companies, they companies would pay the insurance as a sign of faith against insolvency [02:11]
dexX7 and reddit rumors mentioned a "big player" [02:11]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 3 @ 0.066 = 0.198 BTC [-] [02:11]
benkay well given that 99% of 'bitcoin companies' are barely concealed scams, the thing doesn't fly unless you can point at a potential customer that's not a scam. [02:12]
neilol well SecondMarket CEO said that some large insurance companies were approaching him looking to create products around btc [02:12]
tg2 maybe not like insurance, but instead a certification [02:12]
neilol like an auditor [02:12]
neilol someone audited coinbase [02:12]
dexX7 ah, i think that was what i meant, neilol [02:12]
tg2 well not exactly [02:12]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 7 @ 0.0655 = 0.4585 BTC [-] {2} [02:12]
neilol its definitely a business [02:12]
turbo_ac100 There is a working bitbet search plugin on mycroft now (no ref :P). The 2nd hit is the right one. For it to make sense it should be made auto-discoverable though. Like so https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Creating_OpenSearch_plugins_for_Firefox#Autodiscovery_of_search_plugins [02:12]
tg2 there would be certification requirements [02:13]
tg2 like proving that you are solvent every so often [02:13]
tg2 proving that you follow certain guidelines [02:13]
dignork neilol, but audit was strictly technical, keys safety etc. [02:13]
tg2 proving that certain key individuals are known identities [02:13]
tg2 and who have actual real-world assets [02:13]
tg2 without having them divulge that [02:13]
tg2 but if they break their certification [02:13]
tg2 everybody knows right away [02:13]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 33503 @ 0.00094352 = 31.6108 BTC [-] {2} [02:13]
tg2 a hybrid bond/certification system [02:13]
neilol yeah dignork you're right. I'm thinking something like a KPMG or Deloitte would do [02:14]
benkay seems a bit premature. there's barely anyone to trust in the first place, much less people in whom one can trust instead of actually trusting your counterparty. [02:14]
neilol full rip through of financials, accounts, investory etc and certify books match real life [02:14]
tg2 no but I think that now would be time for that [02:14]
benkay neilol: let's just get someone who's not an MPEx scam to issue financials first before we worry about auditing those financials, eh? [02:14]
neilol haha [02:14]
mike_c he's not kidding. [02:14]
benkay tg2: so start building some trust. run that operation. [02:14]
tg2 it allows exchanges to prove to a certain degree of trust that that they are solvent without having to show their cold wallets to everybody [02:15]
tg2 liek an audit [02:15]
neilol wild west has its drawbacks [02:15]
tg2 but with an additional level of oversight [02:15]
benkay tg2: you'll have to overcome the stigma ratings agencies in btc face post-pirate. [02:15]
neilol begs the question: how could you do an audit without counter party trust [02:16]

tg2 it does yes [02:17]
tg2 why do people trust bonds [02:17]
HeySteve working on a Proof of Trust coin. the Web of Trust has been an inspiration [02:17]
tg2 why do they trust fannie/freddy [02:17]
tg2 not that it isn't misplaced [02:17]

benkay tg2: why do people by pmbs? [02:18]
tg2 well that is different, those people had direct interests with the company they were representing [02:18]
mike_c we need a trusted auditing company like Arthur Anderson [02:18]
mike_c then this shit won't happen anymore [02:18]

benkay but let's go down the list by market cap, shall we? [02:20]
benkay who's got the biggest mktcap in btc-denominated securities? [02:20]
tg2 sort of like a whoisguard but that holds the parties behind it responsible and sets up audit procedures and processes they have to follow [02:20]
tg2 like a hybrid ISO and compliance board [02:20]
tg2 really a 3rd party [02:21]
tg2 who's best interest is in securing these businseses [02:21]
benkay ;;calc 0.00094307 * 1000000000 [02:21]

benkay not really. everyone got paid out at par per the contract. [02:26]
benkay nothing to mitigate. [02:26]
tg2 who paid them out [02:26]
benkay mpex [02:26]
benkay this trust thing, you see. [02:26]
tg2 ok, I didn't read that in the delisting doc [02:26]
benkay well if it didn't happen you have quite the scoop there [02:26]
tg2 no legal recourse from mpex -> bitvps? [02:26]

tg2 I'm just surprised that noone has pursued it, it seems that mpex is doing just that however by covering their delinquent listers [02:30]

dexX7_ re: mpoe-pr ban ... was this an april fools joke? i don't see any sign of a ban [05:42]

joecool nubbins`: what are the 10BTC silvers goin for? [05:44]
kakobrekla also whats with the brass hate [05:44]
nubbins` joecool i've seen rubes offering upwards of 25btc, but this is a guaranteed loss. [05:44]
kakobrekla its 99% guaranteed brass [05:44]
joecool nubbins`: omg really? [05:44]
nubbins` i wouldn't pay a satoshi over 15 [05:44]

nubbins` the casascius market is on drugs [05:45]
nubbins` 2011 1btc with series-1 "error" holo: 3-5btc [05:45]
joecool it's like the miner market, OVERPAY FOR ANYTHING WITH BTC STAMP ON IT [05:45]
nubbins` 2011 1btc with series-2 holo (much more rare): 2btc [05:46]
nubbins` go figure [05:46]
kakobrekla should make a special btc logo featured turdtwister [05:46]
nubbins` 25btc coin: 35-40btc [05:46]
nubbins` because "less than 2x face" [05:46]
mike_c hah. nice. [05:46]
nubbins` so all the poor rubes go "ah, less than 2x face, great deal", thinking that's how coins are priced. [05:46]
nubbins` it's shocking [05:46]
kakobrekla how much are the empty ones? [05:47]
nubbins` depends, maybe a hundred bucks for a brass [05:48]
kakobrekla fucked. [05:48]
nubbins` empty 25s go for several hundred [05:48]
joecool crazy, mike's doin p.well for himself i guess [05:48]
nubbins` afaik he was independently wealthy before he started making coins [05:48]
nubbins` but yes, at the time he stopped, he no doubt had a massive pile of btc [05:48]
nubbins` i personally gave him something over 60btc [05:49]

MisterE pay moar, for less functionality! [06:00]
nubbins` suppose you could make one out of an old tape recorder and a few lines of objective-c [06:01]
asciilifeform excuse was, if i recall, that scammers will use the reader to lift cc #s. [06:01]
asciilifeform as if these had any trouble buying chinese readers [06:01]
asciilifeform (these, and stacks of blank cards, sell on ebay every day) [06:01]

mircea_popescu we don't buy that in court, so why would we buy it otherwise. [14:45]

mircea_popescu merely the presence of "government contracts" in the us renders entire sectors state controlled/planned [14:45]
mircea_popescu and for that matter they are well aware of this, hence the entire "conquer education by federal grant" programme past 20 years [14:46]
mircea_popescu wywialm i know you aren't, but stating it for teh record. [14:46]
wywialm you're very right on the govt contracts stuff, but i suppose the regulatory burden is much heavier for the economy than plain old fiscal intervention [14:48]
mircea_popescu the state has absolutely no business in economy at all. [14:49]
mircea_popescu this entire "oh but we know better" bs is simply mindboggling. [14:49]
wywialm true as well [14:49]
mircea_popescu anyway, as technology frees more and more time, people can't resist the temptation to try and feel it with a delusion that they actually matter. [14:50]
mircea_popescu which is teh deep reason the western world slid into socialism past century or so. [14:51]
mircea_popescu s/try and feel it/try and fill it/ [14:51]
wywialm but still - i'd opt for a government scandinavian style that is just fiscally opressive but much less tries to mix with the rules [14:51]

wywialm bounce, any examples? [14:52]
mircea_popescu yeah, examples ? [14:52]
bounce say, public transport. first you end up with lots of PT companies doing their thing and a right jumble it is. then the state steps in and puts it all under one umbrella. N years later it gets a bug up the old bum about privatisation and you end up with lots of little companies again... and worse service to higher cost. [14:53]
mircea_popescu omfg, this is beyond cute. the derps on tardstalk actually tried to like... fud s.mpoe ?! [14:53]

assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 6 @ 0.04349965 = 0.261 BTC [-] {4} [14:55]
mircea_popescu bounce that's actually a great example. [14:55]
bounce or public health. you could provide good basic service to the entire population at a reasonable price (hidden in the tax bill), but if it has to be "market driven" you're certainly not going to get that. and that when it's to everyone's benefit that the workforce is healthy. [14:55]
mircea_popescu public transportation is perhaps the best way to drive that entire argument. [14:55]
VanCleef i think SatoshiIsland needs some sort of governence but it should be like a company where you hire people for the positions via very complicated hard test, previous background and experiences and these positions should be interchangable every year and performance based [14:56]
VanCleef and interviews [14:56]
mircea_popescu bounce the only way i see this to be approachable is the medieval method (still used in romania for emergency medicine say) : you hire a boss. he does whatever he wants. [14:56]
mircea_popescu this is pretty much how the guilds ran things, back when european economy actually worked. it's how romania runs emergency medicine, thge guy's name is raed arafat. [14:57]

wywialm bounce: i can't see any economic justification for things turning that way. The evolution of PT in Poland is a direct proof to the contrary - a few efficient contractors in the bigger cities and between them, successfully coping with ever-increasing regulation [14:58]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [SMG] 2980 @ 0.000081 = 0.2414 BTC [-] {11} [14:59]
bounce heh. guilds have the same problem as, well, anything else that gets power. it tends to become more important to hold onto power (by whichever means) which eventually might come at the cost of the thing they exist for [15:00]
mircea_popescu wywialm you familiar with the dumping issue ? [15:01]
bounce so I'll buy that as a vivid example of getting the right knowledge at the right place, but don't buy the form as a solve-all. [15:01]
mircea_popescu bounce there's no solve all, outside of poincarre's. [15:02]
wywialm and regarding emergency medicine: i agree with mircea_popescu, adding that the most probable explanation for this are large economies of scale and perhaps public good as well [15:02]
* djcoin_ has quit (Quit: djcoin_) [15:02]
bounce basic healt care at any rate. the frivolous stuff, less so. and there's always the risk of glossing over the rare but expensive medical cases [15:03]
bounce s/lt/&h/ [15:03]
wywialm at least partially, and as far as i managed to research it, i believe it's a non-issue, perhaps you could point to something convincing me to believe otherwise? [15:03]
mircea_popescu wywialm let me formalise it for the sake of public discussion. [15:04]
mircea_popescu admitting for the sake of argument that competition happens on measurable parameters of defined products, all businesses will normally compete on operational efficiency [15:04]
mircea_popescu whoever manages to produce x as defined cheapest wins most of the market. [15:05]
* cedivad has quit (Quit: Leaving...) [15:05]
mircea_popescu however, if dumping is allowed, then company Y could sell product X for 0. inasmuch as none of its competitors have more money in the bank, they would necessarily go out of business. [15:05]
mircea_popescu as a de facto monopoly, Y can now charge infinity for X. [15:05]
mircea_popescu this will drive new competitors in the market, of crouse, but the system has two major problems : [15:06]
mircea_popescu one is that a competition on operational efficiency has been transformed in a simple financial competition of "who can support dumping longer" [15:06]
mircea_popescu and moreover, the entire point of the economy is to close the zero-infinity price window as soon as possible. [15:06]
wywialm well, it's very conditional of market organisation - barriers to entry for example [15:06]
mircea_popescu this goes against that. [15:06]
mircea_popescu yes, but as a model, this is the economical reason you were asking for earlier. [15:06]
mircea_popescu there does in fact exist *an* economical reason for things to play out that way. [15:07]
mircea_popescu not necessarily strong enough for it to happen too often, or even at all. but factually, it does exist. [15:07]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 94778 @ 0.00094343 = 89.4164 BTC [-] {2} [15:07]
wywialm as a theoretical possiblity - i agree. but empirically, i have never seen it done [15:08]
mircea_popescu i have. [15:08]
mircea_popescu it's how supermarkets work, fundamentally, all across the world. they drive out small shops in phase 1, with low prices [15:08]
mircea_popescu they take advantage of the captive market they created, afterwards. [15:09]
bounce and regularly attack each other with the same trick afterward [15:09]
mircea_popescu phase 1 lasts 3-5 years, and is actually evaluated as part of the financing of a new development. [15:09]
bounce it's not quite 0..inf but it does happen all the time [15:09]
wywialm have a look at education, for example - govt is permanently dumping the sector, there are no expectations to the reversal of the course and yet it doesn't manage to win the whole market [15:09]
mircea_popescu this is why the us sucks, basically. it, not having ancient microstructure in place, turned into a sprawl hellhole [15:10]
mircea_popescu european style towns where commercial and residential zones are not separated are rare in the us [15:10]
mircea_popescu wywialm it is not dumping the whole sector. even if mcdonald sold for free i wouldn't patronise them. i stll eat at good restaurants. [15:10]
mircea_popescu in fact, mcdonalss DOES sell for free in most of the us, it does more business as a proxy for usg welfare than anything else. [15:11]
mircea_popescu same for all the ff chains. [15:11]
wywialm but the product differentiation is a good defense against dumping, as it can work only in very simple markets, food and education is not one of them [15:13]
mircea_popescu depends. [15:14]
mircea_popescu we're dumping the shit out of high-end btc education in this chan, for instance. [15:14]
wywialm and i believe the 0..inf is never an option, the dumping winners can charge only a monopoly rent afterwards, having erected (rather weak) barriers to entry [15:14]
mircea_popescu it's part of my evil strategy of preventing the usg from ever mattering in this space. [15:14]
wywialm in a well-developed economy capital requrements are much less significant barrier, for example [15:15]
mircea_popescu maybe. [15:15]
bounce you're saying the us gov't *cannot possibly* learn? [15:15]
mircea_popescu it does get complicated real quick just as soon as one tries to take the theoretical model to the actual market [15:16]
mircea_popescu which is why economy is such metaphysics. [15:16]
mircea_popescu bounce it can not possibly afford to pay people that can outcompete us in teaching. [15:16]
bounce economists do tend to get a bit hung up on solutions without really getting down to the structure of the underlying drivers [15:16]
mircea_popescu which brings in an interesting side point : recently the us propaganda press ran a story comparing military spending, showing the us as the sum of europe and other states. [15:16]
mircea_popescu the quietly glossed over point being, of course, that a dollar of usg spending does not buy it a dollar of rl value. [15:17]
mircea_popescu i buy at a discount, often significant. they buy at a premium, always significant. [15:17]
mircea_popescu this and other imbalances make it so that the usg can not actually afford to compete in this particular market. [15:17]
bounce governments tend to do that. but how does the premium between us and eu gov'ts compare? [15:18]
wywialm thats funny that govt always points to costs and expenditures as something inherently positive [15:18]
bounce (at least what little I've seen of economists... let's see if I still have that impression in a year or so, say) [15:18]
bounce well, aren't they the drivers of the economy? so money raked in and tossed out is driving the economy, surely? [15:19]
wywialm hope we'll continue this fascinating discussion sometime later, i'll be going now [15:20]

jborkl mircea_popescu> The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimated that in 2002 there were nearly sixteen billion chickens in the world, counting a total population of 15,853,900,000 < I wonder how many people taxpayers employed to count all the chickens? [17:30]

VanCleef lets face it bitcoin is only good for scamming [17:30]

pankkake so the study doesn't even even try to separate other factors (i.e. vegetarians being more physically active and health conscious, while non vegetarians includes mcdonalds eating couch potatoes) [17:59]
