ThickAsThieves | is there any precedent for holding an exchange culpable for a delay in transaction or deposit action that results in a loss of opporunity to buy at a lower price? | [00:10] |

rikur | I was about to buy VTX, but I don't want to buy it with BTC when the company is anchored to CAD. | [00:15] |
rikur | so if BTC goes up by 10x, I will not benefit from it to the full extent. | [00:16] |
ThickAsThieves | thats a good point, among a pile of other reasons the asset is questionable | [00:17] |
jurov | yea but buying it by btc/cad has little to do with it | [00:18] |

rikur | jurov: I just can't see a reason to anchor the value in CAD. Might be easier in regulatory terms, but I don't think I want to invest in anything based on fiat. :) | [00:21] |
tiberiusiv | what is vtx | [00:21] |
tiberiusiv | theres only 3 viable bitcoin companies at the moment | [00:21] |
jurov | rikur, how it is anchored to CAD? only IPO amount or is there more long lastin anchor? | [00:22] |

rikur | jurov: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxkLKLIRkCI mentions that the stock will always be valued in CAD, not BTC | [00:23] |
jurov | but it is already valued in BTC.. at least on havelock website | [00:23] |
ThickAsThieves | its tied to CAD there too | [00:25] |
ThickAsThieves | it dynamically changes | [00:25] |
jurov | but that what i'm asking, how? | [00:25] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 23 @ 0.386 = 8.878 BTC [-] | [00:25] |
ThickAsThieves | topace programmed it to adjust | [00:25] |
ThickAsThieves | at least for the ipo shares | [00:25] |
ThickAsThieves | dunno about after | [00:25] |
jurov | so only the ipo price is cad, then? after ipo it will float freely against both cad and btc, no? | [00:26] |
rikur | jurov: hmm. Maybe the video was a bit misleading.. but it's weird and flawed. | [00:26] |
ThickAsThieves | even if its free floating, | [00:26] |
ThickAsThieves | its true value will be in cad | [00:26] |
rikur | will my stock valuation go down if BTC goes up or not? | [00:26] |
rikur | maybe I should call the guy and ask | [00:27] |
ThickAsThieves | people will sell it for however many btc they choose | [00:27] |
ThickAsThieves | but odds are it will go down in btc value if btc price goes up | [00:27] |
ThickAsThieves | they are projecting 500k+ revenue for the year, | [00:27] |
ThickAsThieves | and taking $300k in this IPO | [00:27] |
jurov | but that's true for any other asset that has some fiat-world operation, no? | [00:28] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 2 @ 0.386 = 0.772 BTC [-] | [00:28] |
jurov | like ziggp, bitpride, esecurity,... | [00:28] |
ThickAsThieves | yep | [00:28] |
rikur | meh.. the CAD valuation still bugs me off. I will give it some more thought. | [00:29] |
kakobrekla | listening to that jewtube vid is like listening to some insta infinity money scam vid | [00:29] |
ThickAsThieves | what i dont understand is, why are so many people buying so much of it | [00:29] |
ThickAsThieves | yeah i couldnt watch it | [00:30] |
ThickAsThieves | bitcoin bitcoin bitcoin! | [00:30] |
jurov | perhaps canadian pride | [00:30] |
tiberiusiv | rikur is the income derived in BTC or CAD? | [00:30] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [HIM] 1 @ 1.85560001 BTC [-] | [00:31] |
* | benkay (~benkay@c-71-237-161-120.hsd1.or.comcast.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [00:31] |
ThickAsThieves | but i do like how thy took more time than some to prepare their documents and a vid | [00:31] |
tiberiusiv | it doesnt matter what the stock is *valued* in | [00:31] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 13 @ 0.3866 = 5.0258 BTC [+] | [00:31] |
tiberiusiv | what matters is the income it recievers | [00:31] |
tiberiusiv | recieves | [00:31] |
ThickAsThieves | they buy fiat, as it were | [00:31] |
benkay | what's the news, friends? | [00:31] |
ThickAsThieves | right? | [00:31] |
rikur | tiberiusiv: I have absolutely no diea, since they will actually register you as a real shareholder of the canadian company (if you want). | [00:31] |
rikur | and even that extra if is weird. | [00:32] |
rikur | I don't think that a hybrid model between BTC and fiat works. | [00:32] |
tiberiusiv | that means hes paying canadian income tax | [00:32] |
tiberiusiv | explains why he has to do accounting in cad dollars | [00:32] |
rikur | Basically, the guy here is hoping to get 100 000 CAD worth of bitcoins, give you the CAD equilevant of his company to you and keep the bitcoins | [00:32] |

mod6 | yeah thats not gonna end well | [00:33] |
ThickAsThieves | well, they do claim to have purposes for the IPO | [00:33] |
* | moleccc (~molecular@e176102203.adsl.alicedsl.de) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [00:33] |
ThickAsThieves | but if they cant make a profit with the revenue they have so far | [00:33] |
ThickAsThieves | ... | [00:33] |
rikur | well with their volumes and 3% exchange fee, they should be able to cover the costs without it :) | [00:33] |
rikur | why would you ever do an IPO unless you have to? | [00:34] |
ThickAsThieves | in bitcoin world, IPO means somehting different | [00:34] |
jurov | why not? free money | [00:35] |

ThickAsThieves | IPO is just angel investing | [00:35] |
benkay | what does it mean in bitcoin world, thickasthieves? | [00:35] |
ThickAsThieves | and wild speculation | [00:35] |
jurov | benkay, free money as i said | [00:35] |

tiberiusiv | I should have no problem repaying this as long as BTC stays bellow $41.66 ... if it goes above we would need to work something out for a bit more time to repay. | [01:34] |

smickles | some places they can sue you and not have to pay back at all | [01:41] |
tiberiusiv | the thing is how do people expect someone to repay something extremely scarce and difficult to obtain | [01:41] |

tiberiusiv | of course he defaulted | [01:44] |

tiberiusiv | as i said earlier, less then 0.1% of the bitcoin users qualify for BTC loans as first you need a BTC derived income | [01:48] |

Namworld | Valued at 3 million it seems. | [03:45] |
unbalanced | Namworld: what are the other fund/investment options for those of us who aren't on mpex directly? | [03:45] |
Namworld | bitfunder.com or btct.co | [03:45] |
Namworld | Although the quality choices are more limited | [03:45] |

unbalanced | What's this bitfinex I heard earlier today a few times? | [03:45] |
unbalanced | Googled it, just saw a gaming hardware builder | [03:46] |
mircea_popescu | unbalanced there's mpex pass-through vehicles pretty much on all three | [03:46] |
mircea_popescu | also jurov runs a broker website (coinbr.com) and i think he's doing something with futures too | [03:47] |

mircea_popescu | seriously. | [03:48] |
unbalanced | (Someone will do a lexical analysis someday.) | [03:49] |
dub | I think its a bit of both | [03:50] |
dub | theres a girl driving the account, sometimes she gets scripts or at least dictation | [03:50] |
unbalanced | Listen I should warn you all I put some serious (for me) money into Bitcoin today after not holding nearly enough during the run-up. | [03:51] |
unbalanced | So, yeah. That was officially the top. | [03:51] |
mircea_popescu | dub she's pr, obviously she dioesn;'t compose her own poetry over there. | [03:51] |
dub | at least in my opinion, some of the rants take on a scary level of MP semblance | [03:51] |
unbalanced | Okay so coinbr gets me access to some of the MPEx features I wouldn't get yet with Havelock. Roger. | [03:52] |
dub | and reduced risk of avoiding passthroughs | [03:53] |
dub | s/of/through | [03:53] |
mircea_popescu | http://mpex.co << spanish faq too | [03:53] |
mircea_popescu | actually most of her job consists on reading, selecting and summarizing the nonsense people post there. | [03:54] |
unbalanced | My favourite in the FAQ is #10: "You know those charts without any indication of scale ? That's not how charts work." | [03:54] |

smickles | it happened to the second on midnight | [04:10] |
the-bucket-shop | I came in mid conversation - does someone need someone to set up a vote on bitcointalk about whether to add a tile background to mpex.co? In addition to the cherries? | [04:11] |
smickles | my wild guess what it was a botched switch over to coinwho | [04:11] |

smickles | aw, no love for the poll? | [04:18] |
dub | whats a fair markup for otc bitcoin? | [04:19] |
unbalanced | And just a coincidence then -- I do some polling stuff and we work in node.js and we built something like that. That's what I'm talking about, you brainiacs knock something out in a weekend and I can't get a project launched in a year. | [04:19] |

mircea_popescu | you're a vanishing minority. | [04:21] |
mircea_popescu | dub then why are you surcharging buddies | [04:21] |
dub | cause they will ask what my end is and think its wierd there isnt one | [04:22] |
mircea_popescu | this bitcoin surge is pretty cool in that it drives people back to btc. this person invested in mpoe on the first round (feb 2012) | [04:22] |
mircea_popescu | then made a mpex acct back then, had shares transfgerred there | [04:22] |

mircea_popescu | smickles it'd be shit tho casue it'd mix across opex lines i think | [04:23] |
dub | I guess .5 or 1% would be ok | [04:23] |
smickles | mircea_popescu: fine, 25 day | [04:23] |
smickles | i feel it'd be an indicator of how well mpoebot is doing | [04:24] |

smickles | how strange, it also resembles what plato described | [05:38] |
mircea_popescu | traditionally the republic is the place where the laws prevail | [05:39] |
mircea_popescu | democracy is where the will of the mob prevails. | [05:39] |
mircea_popescu | pretty much everyone agrees democracy = disaster, as in, wrose than tyrrany | [05:39] |
dub | how do laws get created | [05:39] |
mircea_popescu | with the unnotable exception of contemporary authors. | [05:39] |
mircea_popescu | dub they don't, basically. | [05:39] |
mircea_popescu | in the classical republic the laws were "always there". some mystical origin or whatever. | [05:40] |
smickles | convince the soldiers they came from the land | [05:40] |
mircea_popescu | the idea of a state without the power to legislate is quite appealing, actually. pretty much the onl;y way "the state" can work is if it can make no laws and raise no taxes. | [05:40] |
dub | well I guess my outlook is more grounded in reality that whimsical language of philosophy | [05:40] |
mircea_popescu | dub another way to say this would be that your outlook is more grounded in fashion and ignorance than literacy. | [05:41] |
mod6 | it wasn't whimsical to the authors of the constitution and the bill of rights. | [05:41] |

tiberiusiv | theres a 23% consumption tax alone | [06:05] |
tiberiusiv | that means nothing, romania doesnt even have a developed transport network to move goods around | [06:06] |
mircea_popescu | there's vat, but you apply it on lower basis and get much better stuff for your money. | [06:06] |

tiberiusiv | mod6: renouncing your citizenship to sit in the bahmas only makes sense if 100% of your income comes from capital gains | [06:11] |
mircea_popescu | let me put it in the following perspective : american guy making 1300 usd a month (mostly govt aid, he doesn't work for it) is sitting around listening to angry music and glaring at passerbys because "he's been cheated". | [06:11] |
tiberiusiv | dividend income is still withheld from 99% of countries by up to 30% | [06:11] |
mod6 | tiberiusiv: maybe the bahamas was a bad example. im not rich enough to know better really. | [06:11] |
mod6 | i couldn't care less. | [06:11] |
mircea_popescu | romanian guy making ~500 usd a month is going out and fixing the park benches in his spare time with his own tools. | [06:11] |
mircea_popescu | nobody rich wants to hang around with idiots. | [06:12] |
mircea_popescu | that's the incentive. | [06:12] |
tiberiusiv | micrea: romanian government is too poor to run an effective welfare state | [06:12] |
tiberiusiv | they dont in the US | [06:12] |

tiberiusiv | well i agree to that | [06:22] |
tiberiusiv | healthy food in north america is expensive | [06:22] |

tiberiusiv | yes | [06:24] |
benkay | less than ten dollars an hour | [06:25] |

benkay | for professional service | [06:25] |
tiberiusiv | 100 a day is alot | [06:25] |
benkay | you are *out of your mind* | [06:25] |
mircea_popescu | you probably get some deals over there and you take that as a basis. which isn't a basis. | [06:25] |
mircea_popescu | then you imagine stuff here is book price, which it isn't. | [06:25] |
mircea_popescu | this somehow comes out like it's 0.35% more here than there. | [06:25] |
mircea_popescu | well... not the facts on the ground, no. | [06:25] |
tiberiusiv | imported products(quality luxury items) are more expensive in RO then US | [06:25] |
tiberiusiv | theres no comparison | [06:25] |
mircea_popescu | i mean sure, while i was in ny i had free car service and two doods with shotguns | [06:26] |

mircea_popescu | it's in romanian, if gt fails horribly i guess i'll have to translate it myself. | [06:36] |
smickles | i'll say american area approachable, go up to one on thier porch with a smile and a friendly greeting in the dark of night, 3/5 times i get a beer doing that | [06:36] |

mod6 | its awesome to go new places and just chat up random people | [06:39] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 when i landed in costa rica i didn't speak spanish. | [06:39] |
mircea_popescu | i went to the local uni, found the english dept, picked up a chick wirth nice hooters | [06:39] |
mircea_popescu | she got me an apt (for reasonable rent, causer it helps if you're local obviously) | [06:40] |
mod6 | nice :) | [06:40] |
mod6 | its a good way to learn the lang and exp the culture.. just immerse yourself. | [06:40] |
tiberiusiv | so is havelock a legit exchange? | [06:40] |
dub | chick with nice hooters eh.. sounds like a fatty | [06:41] |
mircea_popescu | dub she was a little heavy in the rump ya | [06:41] |
tiberiusiv | on the deposit bitcoins page i see nothing? | [06:41] |
tiberiusiv | is it my browser | [06:41] |
mod6 | have you seen spanish chicks? some of em got a nice rack of titty and are totally thin | [06:41] |
mircea_popescu | tiberiusiv nobody's come forth with proof otherwise so far. | [06:41] |

dub | spanish chicks, ew | [06:42] |
mod6 | but travel is amazing, and all the americans who are too fat or busy watching the kardashians to go out and check out the rest of the planet are dumb. | [06:42] |

mod6 | nice smickles | [06:47] |
mod6 | lol slapped her ass and grabbed her gat | [06:47] |
mircea_popescu | anyway. romania is just not a very weapon centric culture. i have no objection with the notions of safety applicable to the us and its citizens, but it's not universal | [06:49] |
mircea_popescu | ie, "add guns" is not the universal path to improving safety in absolutely any circumstance, place or time. | [06:49] |
tiberiusiv | ex communist countries tend to be none weapon based | [06:49] |
tiberiusiv | except for czech republic | [06:49] |
tiberiusiv | weapons were banned under communist rule for a reason. | [06:50] |
mod6 | lol they always are | [06:50] |
mircea_popescu | how were they banned ? everyone got trained to use them whether like it or not | [06:50] |

tiberiusiv | prices were 50% lower in 1900 then in 1800 | [09:18] |
mircea_popescu | this is true | [09:18] |
mircea_popescu | and at that time any revenue stream was worth dieingfor | [09:18] |

mircea_popescu | anyway, an argument can be brought that bitcoin businesses are sorely undervalued atm, in the sense that if you add the half dozen which are serious they're not even 1/4 monetarty mass | [09:20] |
tiberiusiv | US went from a 3rd world to 2x wealthier then europe in 100 years | [09:20] |
mircea_popescu | that's nonsense. | [09:20] |
tiberiusiv | they arent undervalued | [09:20] |
tiberiusiv | first off you have no shareholder rights | [09:20] |
mircea_popescu | that's an advantage | [09:20] |
mircea_popescu | not a drawback. | [09:21] |
tiberiusiv | 0 verification of anything | [09:21] |
tiberiusiv | no dispute settlement | [09:21] |
mircea_popescu | no voting -> you don't need to expend time to inform yourself and vote. no dispute settlement -> you can't waste capital on lawyer fees. | [09:21] |

mircea_popescu | Namworld it's just a theory in my head, but i suspect that macro speaking, the total fees taken by lawyers in a year = the total value of resolutions. | [09:23] |
Namworld | True, some have public BTC addresses. Checking what they earn is trivial. | [09:23] |

deadweasel | but my feelings are as I have stated | [19:29] |
mod6 | i know tons of shit, and can get stuff done. the problem is im poor and have no representation against these evil assholes. | [19:29] |
deadweasel | if you're poor than you've got nothing to lose | [19:29] |
deadweasel | you've never been better positioned to take the fucking world on | [19:29] |
deadweasel | cos they can't take shit | [19:29] |

deadweasel | it is once you're in the legal system. | [19:32] |
mod6 | they just trump up some charges, and tell you well you can do 90 days for this, or you can go to trial and we'll trhow the book at you... | [19:32] |
deadweasel | you're chewed up | [19:32] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 and you say fuck you, this will be the trial of the century | [19:33] |

mod6 | well, what i mean is, in his trial | [19:34] |
mircea_popescu | deadweasel not true. | [19:34] |
mircea_popescu | it takes 10 year for the senior engineer to gain his reputation with others | [19:34] |
mod6 | he just stood up there and told everyone his side of things for like three days lol | [19:34] |
mircea_popescu | not to gain his knowledge of coding | [19:35] |

asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: but yes, that's the only sort of BTC mining I'm personally interested in (well, that and optical computers.) | [20:03] |
mircea_popescu | but i always suspected this is going to be the one way we end up with ai | [20:03] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 1 @ 0.53 BTC [-] | [20:04] |
mircea_popescu | because i always thought that minsky & all may be nice and good | [20:04] |
mircea_popescu | but ai won't exist until there's an edge application which makes money. | [20:04] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: bruteforce mining is a contest of fiat bank accounts (and perhaps botnets.) I prefer contests of wits. | [20:04] |

MJR__ | hi all | [20:24] |
ThickAsThieves | wow i got an answer https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99497.msg1659490#msg1659490 | [20:25] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves nice q re asicminer | [20:25] |
Doffx | What will the next div look like for the Asic miner PT's? | [20:29] |
ThickAsThieves | hard to say | [20:29] |
ThickAsThieves | there will be a difficulty change | [20:29] |
Doffx | whats a good guess? | [20:29] |
ThickAsThieves | avalons are slowly hopping on the network | [20:29] |
Diablo-D3 | the div seems to be getting bigger though | [20:29] |
ThickAsThieves | a good guess is half what they were last time | [20:29] |
Doffx | .015 ish then, still seems decent. | [20:29] |
ThickAsThieves | it is | [20:30] |
kakobrekla | https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=124441.msg1658664#msg1658664 | [20:30] |
kakobrekla | hehe | [20:30] |
Diablo-D3 | ThickAsThieves: I really doubt half | [20:30] |
Namworld | and they already paid for manufacturing 50 more TH I think | [20:30] |
Diablo-D3 | ThickAsThieves: remember, friedcat hasnt gotten all of the 15th online yet | [20:30] |
Diablo-D3 | Namworld: yeah | [20:30] |
Diablo-D3 | and the total farm will be around 60 th | [20:30] |
Namworld | that too... hopefully they can get their shit together | [20:30] |
ThickAsThieves | he just asked what the next div might be | [20:32] |
ThickAsThieves | half is a fair guess | [20:32] |
Doffx | Yeah, I like the answer | [20:32] |
Doffx | :) | [20:32] |
ThickAsThieves | they might get another 1th online before then | [20:32] |
ThickAsThieves | tahts my guess | [20:32] |
ThickAsThieves | and i'm the expert here bro! | [20:33] |
Doffx | Haha, I just needed a rough estimation | [20:33] |
ThickAsThieves | just joshin ;) | [20:33] |
Doffx | I haven't been following anything in the asset world for a while | [20:33] |

kakobrekla | ltc is back to 0.006 i see :) | [20:49] |
jurov | 4 bits/variables - trivial, 5/6 bits - solvable by hand if you have time and patience | [20:49] |
jurov | up to 20 bits - fully solvable by computer | [20:50] |
jurov | anything beyond that, you can only stab in the problem and hope you'll get something close anoutgh to minimal | [20:50] |

MJR__ | over time? | [20:52] |
jurov | generally when computers get 2x more powerful, you can solve one bit more | [20:53] |

mircea_popescu | fresh from the mp evil rants department : http://polimedia.us/trilema/2013/of-mice-and-men-revisited/ | [20:56] |
mircea_popescu | jurov depends if they actually get a breakthrough. | [20:56] |
mircea_popescu | this isn't a universal np problem they're approaching but a well defined subset | [20:57] |
jurov | yes, that's also possible. | [20:57] |
mircea_popescu | that's i think the motivating factor : one clever idea, lots of value in it. | [20:57] |
jurov | oh mp, have you seen i coined a new term befitting teh community? "mining scene" | [20:58] |

benkay | mm | [21:02] |

mircea_popescu | he proceeds to just code, never check, never design for fault tolerance, nothing | [21:08] |
mircea_popescu | then he explains that it's not his fault | [21:08] |
mircea_popescu | then he gets fired. | [21:08] |

asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: is your cold machine kept in a Faraday cage room, with optically isolated power? | [21:37] |
smickles | hardcore | [21:37] |
mircea_popescu | dude, it's a laptop. you don't need to isolate the power :D | [21:37] |
asciilifeform | pick up a spectrum analyzer on ebay and see how far your laptop radiates. | [21:37] |
mircea_popescu | if you demonstrate key stealing off a laptop i'll give you a btc in bounty | [21:38] |
asciilifeform | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempest_(codename) | [21:38] |
MJR__ | yes...so gain physical access | [21:38] |
mircea_popescu | yes well, tempest stuff is detecting airplanes and industrial facilities. | [21:38] |
mircea_popescu | MJR__ i wastalking, with a spectrum analyzer. | [21:39] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: if you demonstrate how to steal a vault full of diamonds in Belgium, I'll give you a U.S. dollar in bounty. | [21:39] |
mircea_popescu | :) | [21:39] |
mircea_popescu | that's easy : i just walk in there, say hi and hit them across the head. | [21:40] |

MJR__ | the point is that "security" is a spectrum | [21:41] |
kakobrekla | hehe http://i.imgur.com/STSOYR9h.png | [21:41] |
MJR__ | as stated on mpex FAQ | [21:42] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 1 @ 0.54490001 BTC [-] | [21:42] |
MJR__ | you define the needs you have with their risks | [21:42] |
MJR__ | it's all about time spent vs possible loss | [21:42] |
MJR__ | probabilities | [21:42] |
mircea_popescu | kakobrekla win | [21:42] |
mircea_popescu | MJR__ as far as i can see, the job of the provider is to ensure you don't get squished. | [21:43] |
MJR__ | yeah | [21:43] |
mircea_popescu | ie, that the spectrum available includes the zone you as a customer need | [21:43] |
mircea_popescu | other than that... good luck and green onions. | [21:43] |
MJR__ | exactly | [21:43] |
MJR__ | I think mpex does that well | [21:43] |
MJR__ | with the key exchanging options | [21:44] |
mircea_popescu | and even in that context : a little squishing up is acceptable | [21:44] |
mircea_popescu | the idea is to not squish down as it were | [21:44] |
mircea_popescu | a good example of this is disallowing weak passwords | [21:45] |
* | error4733 (~userirc@ip-83-134-214-95.dsl.scarlet.be) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [21:45] |
tiberiusiv | i dont get why cavirtex is voluntarily going to regulators in canada | [21:47] |
tiberiusiv | even charging a sales tax they arent required too | [21:48] |
mircea_popescu | tiberiusiv they are seizing an opportunity. | [21:48] |
tiberiusiv | not to mention they are using the CAD dollar as a unit of account vs BTC | [21:48] |
mircea_popescu | atm btc exchange is done legally in europe by the bitcoin-central ppl | [21:48] |
mircea_popescu | and by nobody in the us | [21:48] |
mircea_popescu | they have that space, they want to fill it. | [21:49] |
MJR__ | well, I personally don't like disallowing weak passwords | [21:49] |
MJR__ | I like notifying about the relative strength of a password | [21:50] |
mircea_popescu | MJR__ yeah. in some broken environments however (such as, the web) you're desperate fgor air however | [21:50] |
* | terryww (~terryww@84-255-240-24.static.t-2.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [21:50] |
MJR__ | but forcing people to do a harder password leads to stick notes on monitors | [21:50] |
MJR__ | which is WAY less secure | [21:51] |
MJR__ | so the policy can lead to the exact opposite effect | [21:51] |
mircea_popescu | very true | [21:51] |
MJR__ | offer broad range of security options... | [21:51] |
mircea_popescu | you can't force good. | [21:51] |
MJR__ | 2 factor | [21:52] |
MJR__ | yes | [21:52] |
MJR__ | I personally like pin code for financial transactions plus password for login | [21:52] |
MJR__ | makes it somewhat difficult enough for attacker but easier for user | [21:53] |
mircea_popescu | so basically did asicminer just downgrade theyr "next batch" from 60 gh to 50gh | [21:53] |
mircea_popescu | or have i not been paying attention here ? | [21:53] |
kakobrekla | i dont even give a fuck anymore about these asic | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | no but listen! this is a big deal. | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | originally : 12gh + 60 gh | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | then their 12gh failed to materialise | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | atm they are at about 7gh, and hoping to get together 15 | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | but the 2nd batch is 50 now | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | so out of 22 gh they put online 7 and are hoping for 15 tops | [21:54] |
mircea_popescu | this means 1/3 of their chips blew out during the month ? | [21:55] |
mircea_popescu | is the power thing a lie ? | [21:55] |
* | kakobrekla recheckes the tinfoil hat | [21:55] |

MJR__ | regardless of future difficulty | [21:56] |
kakobrekla | its all fog and bullshit | [21:56] |
mod6 | yeah, i dunno | [21:56] |
mod6 | i wouldn't believe it until i see it | [21:56] |
kakobrekla | so cause of the fog you cant see the shit | [21:56] |
mircea_popescu | i wouldn't put money on any of it | [21:56] |
kakobrekla | you might end up stepping in one | [21:56] |
mircea_popescu | but it makes for a fun detective story imo | [21:56] |
mod6 | mircea_popescu: yeah i wouldn't put my btc's on it. | [21:57] |
mod6 | its too bad really, because these things could be awesome, but we have no way of knowing what we're getting or if we'll even get delivery. | [21:57] |
mod6 | or if it'll even work as advertised | [21:57] |

jurov | 100,200,500 as i said already :DDD | [22:17] |
mircea_popescu | ya right, you'll pay 5 cents for call 500 | [22:18] |
mircea_popescu | but anyway, my q was more, are yo uactually looking to buy and can't or just general discussion ? | [22:18] |
mircea_popescu | cause i can add them, but kinda don't see the point, will have to change the notation anyway and that needs to wait till expiry. | [22:18] |
jurov | not very much atm, but id' definitely bought 100 next month at least | [22:18] |
jurov | C1000N | [22:19] |
jurov | but i'm not asking you to add them asap | [22:19] |
jurov | just i don't get the crossed oix comment | [22:19] |
mircea_popescu | yeah, i think atm what i'll do is either 20-200 step 3 | [22:19] |
mircea_popescu | or else 25 - 300 step 5. | [22:19] |

smickles | bah, well, it's not that big of a deal anyway | [22:22] |
mircea_popescu | originally the fraction strikes were great | [22:22] |
mircea_popescu | what with btc being 2 and shit | [22:22] |
mircea_popescu | but atm... | [22:22] |
mircea_popescu | i guess i better make a general warning about this too huh. | [22:23] |
smickles | ideally, you should have 6 strikes, 3 each side one standard deviation further away from the last | [22:23] |
smickles | problem is, bitcoin goes thru 8 stddevs sometimes | [22:23] |
mircea_popescu | yeah. | [22:23] |
mircea_popescu | and there's other advantages to the linear scheme too | [22:24] |
jurov | step 5 is OK. but definitely please either announce it first or make sure all new mpsic are different from current | [22:24] |
jurov | if anyone holds the options, i mean. just renaming C250T into C025T and creating new C205T would cause utter chaos in coinbr database | [22:27] |

mircea_popescu | but the idea is, nobody will hold anything because it will be opex | [22:30] |
mircea_popescu | so all options get exercised. | [22:30] |
jurov | next month options then | [22:30] |
jurov | so i can expect C200N to become C020T ? | [22:30] |
