| Azelphur | owait bad idea, it'll break things haha | [00:00] |
| mcorlett | Azelphur: You can set anything before the first pipe to upper case. | [00:07] |
| rawrmage | Azelphur: you're slamming uppers? | [00:07] |
| Azelphur | mcorlett: could do | [00:07] |
| Azelphur | rawrmage: hell yea o/ | [00:07] |
| Azelphur | rg: there we go, pushed a few improvements | [00:14] |
| ageis | Azelphur: its --list-sigs | [00:15] |
| ageis | typically keys that have been signed need to be sent to a keyserver to propagate | [00:15] |
| Azelphur | hehe, looks like the library doesn't have any capability to do that anyway | [00:16] |
| ageis | the python module? | [00:16] |
| Azelphur | yep | [00:19] |
| mircea_popescu | Azelphur --delete-key | [00:20] |
| Azelphur | I assume the output I've pasted on https://github.com/Azelphur/pyMPEx is safe? | [00:21] |
| mircea_popescu | vragnaroda y u so capitalist ? | [00:21] |
| Azelphur | if not, I'm screwed haha | [00:21] |
| mircea_popescu | slamming uppers is a good ideea in context btw. | [00:21] |
| mircea_popescu | most windows blondusers can't administrate capslock on their own | [00:22] |
| mircea_popescu | Azelphur i don't see why it wouldn't be safe. | [00:22] |
| mircea_popescu | it's kinda made so people can show it. | [00:23] |
| Azelphur | cool | [00:23] |
| Azelphur | :) | [00:23] |
| Azelphur | just being sure as I don't fully understand it | [00:23] |
| mircea_popescu | Make sure you have signed MPEx's key using "gpg --sign-key F1B69921" | [00:23] |
| mircea_popescu | before that add a | [00:23] |
| mircea_popescu | gpg --search-keys "F1B69921" | [00:23] |
| mircea_popescu | and make sure you put a " before F! | [00:24] |
| Azelphur | mircea_popescu: the code checks if you havn't done it and tells you to do it now. | [00:24] |
| mircea_popescu | cool | [00:24] |
| mircea_popescu | this is getting pretty good. | [00:24] |
| Azelphur | :) | [00:24] |
| Azelphur | mircea_popescu: with the whole broker idea you was talking about, the idea would be for me to create a universal easy to use front end to all exchanges, and take a small fee, right? | [00:25] |
| Azelphur | and, you don't mind about your fee? | [00:25] |
| mircea_popescu | sure. | [00:25] |
| Azelphur | apart from I think you take percentages | [00:25] |
| mircea_popescu | exactly. | [00:25] |
| Azelphur | fun | [00:25] |
| Azelphur | The main thing that worries me about doing it is the security of it | [00:25] |
| Azelphur | I do not wanna be another one of those fools who got robbed, haha | [00:26] |
| mircea_popescu | ya well... | [00:27] |
| mircea_popescu | there's no work without risk | [00:27] |
| Azelphur | hehe | [00:28] |
| Azelphur | I think I'd either say "I take no responsibility for if we get hacked and stuff goes missing" | [00:28] |
| Azelphur | or get some form of insurance | [00:28] |
| kakobrekla | hehe yeah | [00:30] |
| kakobrekla | i was talking to keefe long time ago | [00:30] |
| kakobrekla | for insuring an exchange i had coded | [00:30] |
| kakobrekla | but i changed my mined and didnt release it. | [00:30] |
| kakobrekla | mind | [00:30] |
| Azelphur | haha, why not? | [00:30] |
| kakobrekla | i had several reasons at the time | [00:31] |
| Azelphur | anything that I'd be likely to bump into? | [00:31] |
| kakobrekla | well dunno what are you planing | [00:32] |
| Azelphur | some kind of easy multi-exchange frontend to tie it all together | [00:32] |
| kakobrekla | the funny part is bitscalper wanted to buy my code | [00:32] |
| kakobrekla | hehe | [00:32] |
| Azelphur | hehe | [00:32] |

| mircea_popescu | Diluted Earnings per common share.............. 0.21279319 | [08:32] |
| mircea_popescu | THIS. | [08:32] |
| mircea_popescu | you've made 0.212 earnings per share on the 1st month when the shares were ipo'd at .1 to begin with ? | [08:32] |
| mircea_popescu | this will prolly go down in the history books. | [08:32] |
| smickles | I dunno about history, but it's certainly good | [08:35] |
| mod6 | If they don't, they should, because this is beautiful. | [08:39] |
| mod6 | :D | [08:41] |
| mircea_popescu | i like how the volume bars look on s.mpoe now | [08:41] |
| mircea_popescu | it's like... lol. | [08:41] |
| smickles | relatively nil volume… right? | [08:43] |
| mircea_popescu | well ya, everything pales compared to today | [08:44] |
| mircea_popescu | when i went to bed they were you know, nice volume bars minding their own biz | [08:44] |
| mircea_popescu | now... gone. melted away. | [08:44] |
| mod6 | yeah, the other bars from before were squashed on vol. for sure. | [08:46] |
| mod6 | heheheh | [08:46] |
| mircea_popescu | *smush* lol | [08:47] |
| smickles | mircea_popescu: are those 'minicharts' newest on the left? | [08:49] |

| smickles | nn, thx mod6 | [09:09] |
| smickles | heh, yeah, I don't know why I thought otherwise | [09:09] |
| mircea_popescu | well cause usually graphing is done right to left for some reason | [09:10] |
| mircea_popescu | i really can't believe how poorly difficulty is doing, what with all the bfls and other fpgas supposedly going itno production. | [09:11] |
| smickles | wow, that bet would have fucked me, wouldn't it | [09:14] |

| markedathome | mircea_popescu: if dev.glbse.com is up you can play with the ipo mechanism. you use any email addr, andget 1000 btc to play with. | [14:04] |
| mircea_popescu | yea but | [14:05] |
| mircea_popescu | is this glbse some sort of wild beast that needs to be documented and researched ? | [14:05] |
| mircea_popescu | i'd rather just read/be told how exactly it works | [14:05] |
| markedathome | there are a couple of guides, but mostly they are for purchasers, not asset issuers. | [14:06] |
| markedathome | mila has probably done more work on that then anyone else in terms of documenting it. | [14:07] |
| markedathome | as far as i know it's pay 8btc, give dox/phone/socialnetworking info to nefario, put up asset, with no. of shares and price. | [14:08] |
| markedathome | the ipo is launched at a particular time with a timer so you don't need to push a button at a particular time. | [14:09] |
| mircea_popescu | ya but i mean just the pricing | [14:09] |
| mircea_popescu | see, suppose i make 1000 stocks. now what ? | [14:09] |
| markedathome | you can decide what you want; put up a sell order at 1000@ |
[14:10] |
| mircea_popescu | there's 3 ppl, one bids 5btc for 1000 the other 6 for 500 the 3rd 7 for 300 | [14:10] |
| mircea_popescu | that's it, straight sell ? | [14:10] |
| mircea_popescu | for some reason i tohught there's some auction model | [14:10] |
| * | pklaus has quit () | [14:10] |
| markedathome | yes, you can have people put up prebids, and you can hand out shares through the transfer method before IPO, or only put a portion in. | [14:11] |

| markedathome | damn it, slow handclap for kvirc authors ctrl-z shouldn't kill it. | [14:14] |
| mircea_popescu | ouch lol | [14:16] |
| mircea_popescu | so that's kinda what i was interested on, how do prebids work. | [14:16] |
| markedathome | anyway, from what i remember of your post if you had buy 1@1, 1@1.1 1@1.2 and issued at 1.1 then the 1.2 order would be filled at 1.1 automatically | [14:17] |
| markedathome | first order is preferred at each price. | [14:17] |
| markedathome | or oldest bid, or whatever it is called. (not a finance person, so still trying to get caught up) | [14:19] |
| mircea_popescu | yeah. | [14:22] |
| markedathome | i think a bit of experimentation is needed to see what happens at ipo. however pre-orders can be swapped through the share transfer which is what gigamining did for his | [14:27] |

| mircea_popescu | lmao | [22:14] |
| vragnaroda | You were accused of sock puppetry because instead of paying someone to say shit for you, you must be saying it yourself! | [22:15] |
| markedathome | > Mkay, so I'm gathering we don't yet have the financial/intellectual wherewithal for CDOs in the community? | [22:15] |
| markedathome | rofl | [22:15] |
| mircea_popescu | o isee | [22:16] |
| vragnaroda | There are definitely people that'd be interested in that, but I don't think they spend all their time hanging out on the lending forum. | [22:16] |
| mircea_popescu | i am sorry i fail to live to the standards of profesionalism. | [22:16] |
| mircea_popescu | as established by blablatalk.com | [22:16] |
| vragnaroda | lol | [22:16] |
| mircea_popescu | where'd they spend their time ? | [22:17] |
| markedathome | well seeing as the lending forum only got it's act together ^H^W^HW professionalism in the last couple of months | [22:17] |
| mircea_popescu | and since we;'re doing tghis, check out for the lulz https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=76506.0 | [22:18] |
| mircea_popescu | so a bloke made deposit orders for 20, 2000 and finalyl 200 btc, which he paid. | [22:20] |
| mircea_popescu | these zeroes... | [22:20] |
| mircea_popescu | lucky i have the final digits id system or else it'd be damned confusing lol | [22:20] |
| mircea_popescu | but anyway, back to the cdo issue : the situation as i see it now is a lot of small, unvetted and unvettable borrowers doing insane %s, and a lot of defaulting. | [22:29] |
| mircea_popescu | seems to me pretty much the only viable way to securitize somewhat that market is with large and very transparent cdos | [22:30] |
| mircea_popescu | maybe im missing some angles tho. | [22:30] |
| markedathome | how would/could you cope with shakaru type debts. | [22:30] |
| mircea_popescu | if the cdo's are transparent shakaru can't happen | [22:30] |
| mircea_popescu | that sort of congame relies on the market being opaque, as it is now. | [22:31] |
| mircea_popescu | as in, people don't even know their 1k btcs is really 5% of the guy's total loans | [22:31] |
| markedathome | the lending forum has formalised quite a bit within the last two months, as from the beginning of march there was an article on one of the tor hacking forums that bitcointalk lenders were suckers | [22:32] |
| markedathome | and now you have the ppt pirate pass through bonds issue | [22:32] |
| markedathome | which are almost all the major lenders on that board | [22:32] |
| kakobreklaa | >>as from the beginning of march there was an article on one of the tor hacking forums that bitcointalk lenders were suckers | [22:32] |
| kakobreklaa | lol | [22:32] |
| mircea_popescu | which is practically a shoddily done informally specified cdo | [22:33] |
| vragnaroda | rofl | [22:33] |
| mircea_popescu | reminds me of that lips saying. | [22:33] |
| * | nova90 has quit (Quit: Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org) | [22:33] |
| markedathome | burtwagner is one of the guys in PPT, and was one of those in your cdo thread | [22:33] |
| mircea_popescu | ppt = ? | [22:34] |
| mircea_popescu | a pass through k | [22:34] |
| markedathome | Pirate's Pass Through | [22:34] |
| kakobreklaa | a bunch of horse shit | [22:35] |
| mircea_popescu | it's a little weird as there seems to exist a contingent of socially awkward and technologically inept people who mostly grouped around lending and bitcointalk | [22:35] |
| mircea_popescu | im not entirely sure why they're so butthurt tho. | [22:35] |
| markedathome | basically the PPT lenders have accounts at BSAT (or whatever used to be Pirates S&T) that get high interest, they are relending at say 8-10% over 5-14 days | [22:35] |
| vragnaroda | http://i.imgur.com/g58A2.jpg <-- wtf | [22:37] |
| mircea_popescu | you mean reborrowing markedathome ? | [22:37] |
| mircea_popescu | lmao vragnaroda | [22:37] |
| mod6 | vragnaroda: darwin in action. | [22:38] |
| mircea_popescu | well apparently they're recuperating, praise jeebus. | [22:39] |
| mod6 | haha, so darwin loses on that one. | [22:39] |
| mod6 | but, he wins overall i'm betting. | [22:39] |
| markedathome | i''m not entirely sure. AFAIK ppt deposit funds to BSAT in the range 1000-2000BTC and get 1% a day, (there are 20 shares of PPT at 100BTC a share) | [22:39] |
| mircea_popescu | wait. i thought pirate was supposed to have > 50k bitcoins from ppl. | [22:40] |
| markedathome | he does | [22:40] |
| mircea_popescu | mk, so i sent vragnaroda's pic to womenz i talk to. everyone says they saw it | [22:41] |
| mircea_popescu | apparently it was on reddit/popurls/everywhere else | [22:41] |
| mircea_popescu | vragnaroda my son, i r dissapoint. | [22:41] |
| markedathome | my understanding is that the interest that ppt gets from pirate would outweigh any single->low number of defaulters for the low amounts that PPT would lend. | [22:43] |
| markedathome | along with the interest repaid by borrowers | [22:43] |

| mircea_popescu | The first BTC Debt Collection Agency and DUNS-like database | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | April 11, 2012, 08:40:48 PM #1 | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | This is it kids, we've discussed it again and again and I think it's time we do this properly. | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | We need two things: | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | 1. A debt collection agency | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | 2. A way of registering and scoring individuals. | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | people are discovering a need for the WOT. | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | i think they may come up with alt chains any time now. | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu | In regards to part 2 of my proposal, I propose a scoring system similar to that used by Dun & Bradstreet. Each physical or legal person gets assigned a nine digit number. This number is linked to a historic score that changes as the legal of physical person's situation changes. The Agency will be responsible for veryfing their identity and maintaining an up-to-date database. Participation is voluntary. | [22:53] |
| mircea_popescu | lmao | [22:53] |

| mod6 | wtf were do these kids get this stuff. | [23:00] |
| mod6 | *where | [23:00] |
| mircea_popescu | sr. | [23:00] |
| markedathome | di=doubleicarus | [23:00] |
| markedathome | he borrowed and was given coins for a london event that was to occur in march, along with a promise of sending out t-shirts | [23:00] |
| mircea_popescu | i guess i missed some drama. cliffnotes ? | [23:00] |
| mircea_popescu | o, that thing never happened ? | [23:01] |
| markedathome | yeah, then it turns out that the DI that is out in the real world had his identity stolen for the bitcointalk forum. | [23:02] |
| markedathome | allegedly, maybe. who knows? | [23:02] |
| mircea_popescu | i recall reading that about 1/3 of chargebacks are friendly fraud now. so... | [23:03] |

| mircea_popescu | i don't see what could possibly go wrong with that process. | [23:05] |
| kakobreklaa | im guessing there was no souch event markedathome? | [23:06] |
| kakobreklaa | hm | [23:06] |
| kakobreklaa | ah the scam was from the begining | [23:06] |
| kakobreklaa | nevermind | [23:07] |
| mircea_popescu | someone needs to get that patrick harnett and butthurt wagner onto irc | [23:08] |
| mircea_popescu | they'd have fun here. | [23:08] |
| vragnaroda | mircea_popescu: Friendly fraud? | [23:08] |
| markedathome | patrickhartnett has been in otc in the pst couple of days, though not chatting | [23:08] |
| mircea_popescu | friendly fraud is the unbased claim that "i was haxored" | [23:08] |
| vragnaroda | Oh, I'd have expected that to be higher. | [23:09] |
| mircea_popescu | prolly a lot of rural farm equipment buys and whatnot dilute it | [23:09] |
| vragnaroda | I guess there are still a lot of old people forgetting what they bought of the Home Shopping Network and the like, though. | [23:09] |
| markedathome | break out the magnifying glasses https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=76515.msg853907#msg853907 | [23:09] |

| mircea_popescu | that works. what i'd like to know is if that's really clever advertising | [23:18] |
| mircea_popescu | or really inefficient repelling. | [23:18] |
| vragnaroda | I don't know. I'd hope it's clever advertising, though. | [23:19] |
| mircea_popescu | if it is that's a pretty clever pimp. | [23:19] |
| mircea_popescu | rara avis. | [23:19] |
| BTC_Bear | mircea_popescu: I was making fun of the -PR. He basically called everyone stupid. Which is probably true but you don't call them that. :) | [23:19] |
