* BitHub is now known as VanCleef [00:48]
pgp question: is there anything preventing the creation of a transaction for 0 BTC, but with a miner fee so that it would pickup up? [00:50]
* GordonG3kko has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [00:52]
pgp the reason i ask is that all the passthru nonsense seems so cumbersome - seems to me like you could use the block chain to move shares around, no? [00:54]
furuknap Colored coins? [00:54]
fiat500 the passthrough makes it easier to trade on an exchange [00:54]
assbot [BTCTC] [COGNITIVE] 3 @ 0.335 = 1.005 BTC [+] [00:54]
pgp but they're not fungible [00:55]
* GordonG3kko (~GordonG3k@gateway/tor-sasl/gordong3kko) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:55]
pgp why not imbed them in the blockchain in the comments field - seems to me that it could be done pretty easily so your shares could exist in your wallet and could be moved to where you want [00:57]
pgp provided, of course, that every agrees on a format for such a comments [00:57]
kakobrekla 23:50.17 ( pgp ) question: is there anything preventing the creation of a transaction for 0 BTC, < yes, with 0.8xx theres a min set... cant have txes smaller than i dont remember howmany satoshi [00:59]
fiat500 pgp: some of them are fungible [01:02]
pgp yes, but you have to push the shares, requires someone to do it for you, etc [01:03]
fiat500 blockchain is not the most efficient data structure for this kind of stuff [01:03]
fiat500 when you are distributing dividends etc [01:03]
jurov pgp i actually stumbled upon similar txs [01:03]
jurov some outputs were 0 [01:03]
pgp seems to me that you could use the blockchain for lots of stuff besides BTC [01:04]
pgp but if there is a min quantity, that's a problem [01:04]
mircea_popescu pgp 0tx are nonstandard [01:04]
assbot [BTCTC] [TAT.ASICMINER] 3 @ 0.024799 = 0.0744 BTC [-] [01:04]
mircea_popescu (meaning they won't get picked up) [01:04]
fiat500 yeah you could use it to communicate video data if you want but its not an efficient way to do it [01:04]
pgp even with a miner fee? [01:04]
mircea_popescu as to the blockchain shares, it's called colored coins. it has it's own problems [01:05]
mircea_popescu ;;google why i nixed jazz [01:05]
gribble Why I nixed p2p, colored coins and all that jazz pe Trilema - Un blog ...: ; Why King County nixed woman's marriage to a corporation in ...: ; The five spot: Where can I see real jazz played in town? | Las Vegas (1 more message) [01:05]
mircea_popescu it's not a matter of miner fees. nonstandard tx are not relayed. [01:05]
jurov pgp, for sharing big data in blockchain-esqe way, there's freenetproject [01:05]
pgp but to decentralize the ledgering of othe assets seems like an intersting application [01:05]
jurov ut as it has limited capacity, it forgets unused files [01:05]
jurov you did read trilema treatise on the decentralized exchanges? [01:07]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [ASICM] 2 @ 0.02430001 = 0.0486 BTC [-] [01:08]
jurov so i think yes the ownership can and will be tracked by some blockchain mechanism [01:08]
jurov but markets will stay centralized [01:08]

assbot [HAVELOCK] [ASICM] 107 @ 0.02400001 = 2.568 BTC [-] [01:14]
pgp I'm refering to a idea about moving asset custody. For example, why not have a mechnism "like" the blockchain to move ASICM to whatever exchange you want. [01:14]
pgp or keep it in you own wallet [01:14]
fiat500 exchanges have no incentive to implement that [01:15]
assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 1 @ 2.47 BTC [-] [01:15]

pgp problem 0? [01:18]
furuknap [00:17] Problem 0 [01:18]
mircea_popescu that i am not biased, but in a perfect position to implement it [01:19]
mircea_popescu if it actually were a good idea. [01:19]
mircea_popescu it's not. [01:19]
* Anduck has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [01:19]
* Enky has quit () [01:19]
furuknap I'll still argue that you're stuck, though, mp. Colored coins in the BTC blockchain may not work, but nothing prevents an alternate chain, tailored to the needs of an asset market, to evolve. Thinking in terms of what is possible or conceivable now is limiting. [01:19]
furuknap *from evolving. [01:20]
mircea_popescu that's not the objection. [01:20]
mircea_popescu the objection is that this thing wouldn't actually add any benefit. [01:20]
pgp what is meant by colored coins? [01:20]
mircea_popescu creating some special coins which denote ownership of shares. [01:21]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [ASICM] 6 @ 0.024 = 0.144 BTC [-] [01:22]
furuknap It would add benefit if it could solve problems that an asset market has or will get. [01:22]

assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 8 @ 2.477795 = 19.8224 BTC [+] [01:22]
furuknap We may not see that right now, but none of us saw in 2008 what problems Bitcoin would solve either. Otherwise, we'd be called Satoshi Nakamoto. [01:22]
assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 1 @ 2.451 BTC [-] [01:23]
mircea_popescu no, actually i saw the problems [01:23]
mircea_popescu what i didn't see was the solution [01:23]
mircea_popescu not even by a long shot. [01:23]
furuknap That's one of the things that fascinate me with cryptocurrencies; it allows us to explore (and in altcoin land, test) new ideas for working with values. [01:23]
mircea_popescu but sure, in general speaking the world is not complete so you never know. [01:23]
assbot [BTCTC] [COGNITIVE] 10 @ 0.35 = 3.5 BTC [+] [01:23]
furuknap OK, so here's one problem that current asset market doesn't solve. Insider trading or what we consider unethical price manipulation, legal or otherwise. I don't have a solution, but a BTC-based or derived system may bring forth ideas that could control or somehow reverse illegal actions, as defined by whatever jurisdiction. [01:25]

assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 1 @ 2.451 BTC [-] [01:25]
mircea_popescu reverse ? [01:26]
mircea_popescu you want a reversible altchain ? [01:26]
furuknap I don't know, that's the point. If I had the solution, I would tell you, honestly :-) [01:27]
mircea_popescu well supposedly colored coins are the solution [01:27]
mircea_popescu what we're looking for is a conceivable problem they might solve. [01:27]
furuknap For instance, again not particularly thought out, bans on shares held by denoted key insiders before or during important events. A deadlock on trades with those shares could reverse the trade (to be declared to the buyer) if breach of whatever happened. [01:27]
mircea_popescu you'd never know the insider handles. kinda the point of crypto currency [01:28]
TomServo Would it somehow allow a failed exchange to transfer shares to another? Or is that not even an issue? [01:29]
furuknap Again, now you're thinking in BTC mode. [01:29]
assbot [BTCTC] [BITVPS] 4 @ 0.000857 = 0.0034 BTC [-] [01:29]
TomServo Or an owner of assets on a failed exchange, I should say. [01:29]
mircea_popescu TomServo well i don't see how it'd do better than what's currently in place atm [01:29]

qxzn pgp: "I'm refering to a idea about moving asset custody. For example, why not have a mechnism "like" the blockchain to move ASICM to whatever exchange you want." this sounds a lot like ripple [01:39]
* error4733 (~error4733@ip-83-134-214-40.dsl.scarlet.be) has joined #bitcoin-assets [01:40]
mircea_popescu BitHub only been a few months. plans for years. [01:40]
pgp ok - so - why are "colored coins" such a bad idea? I am not suggesting any sort of p2p exchange, just ledgering and the ability to trade you shares on differenet exchanges. [01:41]
BitHub any new ipo's coming up? [01:41]
pgp ripple is flawed [01:41]
pgp but their consensus engine does seem interesting [01:42]
BitHub just analysing what i should do with the mpoe stock [01:42]
qxzn the problem is that shares on one exchange have different value than shares on another exchange [01:42]
qxzn mostly because of variance in counterparty risk [01:42]
BitHub i would actually like to sign up and use it, something different from BF and btct [01:43]
mircea_popescu BitHub yes, actually. [01:43]
BitHub but don't think its really suited for me atm [01:43]
mircea_popescu pgp for one, you will have the normal confirmation delay. for the other, how do you pay the miners ? [01:43]
BitHub cool [01:43]
mircea_popescu for the yet another, how do you pay the devs [01:43]
* toffoo (~tof@186.221.43.170) has joined #bitcoin-assets [01:44]
BitHub i really miss glbse [01:45]
pgp yes, but let's look at how it work for financial markets. I can hold a stock certificate in my name (personal wallet), or I can deposit with my broker and put it in "street" name (broker's wallet and trade it on an exchange - ANY exchange - in the US that would mean 7 major exchanges, but 20 or so dark pools. Every share is identical and fungible. [01:45]
mircea_popescu right [01:45]
mircea_popescu BitHub why ? [01:46]
pgp I don't care about delay, just the ability to move it [01:46]
TomServo pgp: I think opentransactions might be the thing you're looking for. [01:46]
mircea_popescu is that thing still actively tinkered on ? [01:46]
BitHub idont know it just exciting when it first was around [01:46]
mircea_popescu pgp afaik these days stock certs are mostly digital [01:47]
mircea_popescu you can "own" it but in the terms of, some clearance corp saying so and that's all there is. [01:47]
mircea_popescu nobody wants to administer the physical stuff anymore, too expensive, forgeries etc [01:47]

TomServo that was pretty recent [01:48]
TomServo and compelling [01:48]
mircea_popescu even sponsoring it a little. [01:48]
BitHub what if exchanges agreed to allow users from one exchange to exchange the same shares with another user on another asset exchange [01:48]
mircea_popescu but, it never seemed to go very far for some reason. [01:48]
mircea_popescu BitHub htye already do, for pretty much all mpex shares [01:48]
mircea_popescu you can trade the pt to the share and back [01:48]

pgp i see [01:49]
BitHub some mpex BF intergration would be sweet [01:50]
pgp btw, you most certainly can request a stock certificate at any time - hassle and not common - but people do it for many reasons [01:50]
BitHub digital stock cert could be linked to a qr code or something <--n00b at this stuff [01:51]
pgp but having some sort of non exchange controlled mechanism to prove, for example, that there are no conterfiet share out there, seems like a worthy goal [01:51]
mircea_popescu the mpex dividend actually tests for this [01:52]
pgp a public ledger [01:52]
mircea_popescu as it won't push out div if the share count is > the declared count [01:52]
pgp or anonymous addresses [01:53]
pgp blockchain [01:53]
pgp or really, an altchain [01:53]
mircea_popescu listen, an altchain is not trustworthy in pricniple. [01:53]
pgp *of* anonymous addresses [01:53]
mircea_popescu it only becomes trustworthy if very much used. [01:53]
mircea_popescu tons of mining [01:53]
mircea_popescu etc. [01:53]
mircea_popescu this fetish people have for blockchains is being exploited atm by all the altchain scams. [01:54]
mircea_popescu fact is an altchain is trustworthy just for being an altchain to the same degree that written text can be trusted just for being written on paper. [01:54]
mircea_popescu paper will take anything, the blockchain idea will take anything. [01:54]
BitHub BF mpex intergration example, i could have an account at bf and mpex and buy shares from bf and transfer it to mpex for a fee, both exchanges share the fee. Now i can trade my sdice shares on mpex, vice versa [01:54]

pgp ok - so the sort of thing that is possible today is much like ADR and ordinary shares. They are convertible for a fee, they trade on different exchange, and it's a hassle to convert. [01:59]

* cosmo (~edward@unaffiliated/cosmo) has joined #bitcoin-assets [02:00]

mircea_popescu well, leaving aside that there isn't a 2nd mpex to begin with, having no hierarchy means you'll have to face the byzantine problem [02:11]

Namworld All money on Ripple is just IOUs... you have to trust certain issuers... which tends to be exchanges... which trade virtual currencies and fiats... [03:21]
sikbwoy lol [03:21]
furuknap I still don't get it. I get an IUO from whom and why could that be worth squat to me? [03:21]
Namworld So Ripple is kinda superfluous... [03:21]
assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 1 @ 2.47 BTC [+] [03:22]
Namworld It's worth something if the IOU issuer is an exchange, like BitStamp for example [03:22]
Namworld since you can deposit this IOU at that exchange for BTC or USD or whatever [03:22]
furuknap So... You run exchange X and I buy an IOU from you to sell it back to you? In other words, a plain, regular loan? [03:23]
Namworld You could, for example, trade a Gox 1 BTC IOU on ripple for 130 USD IOUs from BitStamp with another Ripple user. [03:23]
Namworld But that's just plain stupid [03:23]
Namworld Since all virtual currencies can be just sent directly to that other exchange [03:23]
* savetheinternet has quit (Quit: Textual IRC Client: www.textualapp.com) [03:23]

Namworld BUT [03:24]
furuknap Yeah, because why would I want to do that? I could just trade it for USD or any other currency. [03:24]
Namworld What exchange would do that? [03:24]
furuknap Nobody, but my friends would buy a BTC from me an pay me in Norwegian kroner. [03:24]
Namworld They can't track who traded the fiat and just add it back to an account? AML clusterfuck [03:24]
ericmuyser banks work on IOU's. people give loans to eachother. ripple is real life, without the cash in hand [03:24]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [VTX] 1 @ 0.4399 BTC [+] [03:25]
furuknap I must be utterly stupid... [03:25]
assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 1 @ 2.469 BTC [-] [03:25]
Namworld Ripple can render fiat transfer easiers, by allowing fiat from Bank/Exchange X to be traded with someone else for fiat from Bank/Exchange Y. Then each can instantly deposit the IOU at that bank. [03:25]
assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 4 @ 2.47 = 9.88 BTC [+] [03:26]
furuknap So... I start with 1 BTC. What benefit will Ripple give me that I can't get form just having and using my BTC? [03:26]
Namworld But that's a complete money laundering headache [03:26]
Namworld Ripple is not a currency. It's not a type of money. It's a platform. [03:26]
Namworld To trade various currencies [03:26]
Namworld But Ripple itself doesn't hold any money [03:27]
ericmuyser furuknap: it's an exchange and it works well to get people OUT of fiat. otherwise nothing? [03:27]
Namworld Issuers issue IOUs on Ripple [03:27]
Namworld People can trade IOUs from Issuer X for IOUs from other issuers [03:27]
Namworld and then cash in those IOUs at the issuing bank/exchange/whatever [03:27]
furuknap And you have to trust that issuer. I understand so far. I just don't understand what it gives me as a normal person, having X of currency Y, beyond the ability to change X of Y to Z of W. [03:27]
* wences (~wences@204.11.229.46.static.etheric.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets [03:28]
Namworld Because transfering money from one exchange to another can be hard if you want to avoid fees for example. [03:28]
furuknap And that's where it all falls apart for me... [03:28]
Namworld Suppose you want for example to withdraw USD from Gox to get USD on BTC-e where BTC is cheaper. [03:28]
furuknap Why would I want to transfer my money through an exchange? I just want to buy a cup of coffee or tip the stripper... [03:29]
Namworld If both were issuing fiat IOUs on Ripple, people could theorically trade those on Ripple [03:29]
Namworld Ripple is not made to make purchases [03:29]
Namworld It's a platform to move money around [03:29]

* sikbwoy has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) [03:31]
furuknap So... One more question... If they are tokens, why does it matter that the founders premined and kept XX% themselves? It's like having a gazillion postage stamps that can be used only to send mail but with no other value? [03:32]
Namworld wait what? It's in the grand design? Why would people make payments in XRPs? [03:32]

Namworld XRPs are already being used as a currency, just like litecoins [03:33]
ericmuyser Namworld: because at some point they expect people to have a wallet of xrp of course, the same as btc. but they could make payments from their ripple wallet using btc. either way, you're in ripple world [03:33]
Namworld I guess XRP could be used as a default currency [03:33]

furuknap Yeah, which is exactly what I'm trying to avoid by using BTC. [03:34]
ericmuyser whatever you call it, it's not used in transactions directly but that is the plan [03:35]
Namworld Could be used as a cement between various IOUs, since it might be hard to find a trader to trade your IOUs for another specific IOU [03:35]

furuknap Well, I'm officially, completely, and utterly underwhelmed. Thanks for the explanations, guys. [03:36]
Namworld But again, it's kind of absurd... because it skip every darn anti-money laundering stuff. What kind of institution would start issuing IOUs on Ripple they can't track, and let anyone cash them in? [03:36]
assbot [BTCTC] [TAT.ASICMINER] 9 @ 0.02499 = 0.2249 BTC [+] [03:36]
furuknap I think anyone who issues bearer bonds? [03:37]
ericmuyser I heard they intend on allowing more strict IOU configuration but I have no source for that [03:37]
ericmuyser but if they dont ya it's pretty crazy [03:37]
furuknap But these IOUs are fungible, right? [03:38]
ericmuyser furuknap: if an exchange or another person trusts you [03:39]
ericmuyser i can go on there and say i have a million dollars or 100 baseball collectors cards, and you can say you trust i have them and what you value them at [03:39]
mircea_popescu The issue is, Ripple is just plain stupid... << the more i learn about it the righter this seems [03:40]
ericmuyser i would trust my friend has 100 bucks at any point to lend me, so i add him to my trust network [03:40]
furuknap Sure, but if I get a $1000 IOU from BofA, I can sell $124 of that without having to get BofA to issue a $124 and a $876 IOU. [03:40]
assbot [BTCTC] [TAT.ASICMINER] 2 @ 0.024997 = 0.05 BTC [+] [03:40]
ericmuyser i trust he has the fiat and when i make the exchange he will give it to me IRL [03:40]
kakobrekla yeah like banks trusted that ppl will repay their house loans or smth [03:40]
Namworld That's not really because it wouldn't be great to easily move fiat around. It's because fiat holders are AML regulated. [03:40]
Namworld Plus replacing fiat for Bitcoin or any alternative seems better. [03:41]
Namworld Then we can just send that around [03:41]
Namworld Painlessly [03:41]
mircea_popescu ericmuyser the unsurmontable problem is that ripple trust is blind [03:42]
furuknap Exactly. So, for anyone other than currency traders and speculators, I can't really see any benefit to Ripple. It doesn't have value beyond the value of a stamp, it doesn't solve any problems that haven't already been solved, and it's just another headache for users when they want to just pay the damn bill at the restaurant. [03:42]
mircea_popescu you trust me. [03:42]
mircea_popescu you trust me to THE FUCK WHAT ? [03:42]
ericmuyser mircea_popescu: i do not trust you at all. [03:42]
mircea_popescu as far as ripple is concerned, you trust me, end of story. [03:42]
mircea_popescu whether i make 100 or 100 bn dollars, you've trusted me already [03:42]
mircea_popescu irl trust is always to something. i trust you to suck my cock, but not to bake me a pie. [03:43]
mircea_popescu so no, ripple is not like real life in any sense. [03:43]

mircea_popescu chad6 130ish isn't a runup rly [03:44]
Namworld Actually you can trust each issuer for a different amount... [03:44]
ericmuyser and i dont want my friend giving away my money to a friend in need [03:44]
ericmuyser unless i justify it [03:44]
mircea_popescu Namworld but can you enforce that much is how much they make ? [03:44]

mircea_popescu you don't trusty him with 10k out ofg 100 bn. you trust him wioth 10k total. [03:45]
ericmuyser mircea_popescu: you're talking about loans and interest? [03:45]
mircea_popescu nope. [03:45]
Namworld No, the trust level is just how much money they owe you you can tolerate... not the total they issue... sadly [03:45]
ericmuyser who cares what he makes [03:45]
ericmuyser you give him 10k, you get 10k back [03:45]

ericmuyser it's kind of irrelevant to the system [03:47]
mircea_popescu ericmuyser i kind of suspect you're not quite qualified to discuss systems. [03:47]
Namworld It depends... basically if you trust someone for let's say 1000 USD, you're saying you trust the person not to abuse the issuing IOU feature AND you're willing to risk up to 1000 USD on your belief, as such if the issuer is abusive, you can lose no more than 1000 USD. [03:47]

assbot [BTCTC] [TAT.ASICMINER] 11 @ 0.024997 = 0.275 BTC [+] [03:49]
ericmuyser then that person they trust is the one taking the loan with the other guy [03:49]
ericmuyser it sucks [03:49]
Namworld You're saying you trust the issuer to not issue more than what they can back, and that you'd be willing to bet up to X on that. [03:49]
mircea_popescu right. and you get nothing for this [03:49]
Namworld Not that there's no backing... obviously if you're willing to accept X IOUs, it assumes you're also trusting that the issue has backings [03:50]
mircea_popescu you're basically providing liquidity, the only sane way this works is if you get a % fee for each guy you trust [03:50]
ericmuyser lol you really need to bake fees into it eh [03:50]
mircea_popescu if i accept your stuff for 10k btc i expect you to pay me whatever, 2k. [03:50]
mircea_popescu ericmuyser yes. [03:50]

mircea_popescu that reason is that you need to get paid. nobody this stupid has any money [03:52]
mircea_popescu and so they pay each other wioth their own acceptance [03:52]
dub you still rely on at least two 'centralised' parties to transact with anotehr person [03:52]
mircea_popescu you trust me for 10k i trust you for 10k nonsense [03:52]
Namworld I tried Ripple with the 40k XRP I received for free in one of those giveaways. [03:52]
Namworld What I basically did is, trust BitStamp as an issuer for BTC [03:53]
Namworld Sell XRP for BitStamp BTC IOUs [03:53]
assbot [BTCTC] [ASICMINER-PT] 4 @ 2.4778 = 9.9112 BTC [+] [03:53]
Namworld Send BitStamp their IOUs [03:53]
dub thats not trusting ripple [03:53]
dub thats speculating with xrps [03:53]

dub you didnt transact over ripple [03:53]
Namworld I said trusting BitStamp for IOUs [03:54]
Namworld Not Ripples [03:54]
Namworld Normally, I could have traded these IOUs for another issuer's IOUs [03:54]
dub no you traded some 'IOUs' for btc [03:54]
dub you didnt use ripple at all [03:54]
ericmuyser dub: Ripple *is* IOUs [03:54]
dub yeah I know [03:54]
Namworld I used ripple at the XRP for BTC step [03:54]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [ASICM] 4 @ 0.02449999 = 0.098 BTC [+] [03:55]
ericmuyser and BitStamp is a single node many people trust to exchange on their behalf, and not die [03:55]
Namworld WHich is a trade between two users [03:55]
ericmuyser I am a node that no one trusts [03:55]
Namworld Just as much as exchange an IOU for another IOU [03:55]
dub well not really [03:55]
ericmuyser except for BitStamp IOUs and XRP (baked in) [03:55]
dub you got btcs because people are stupid and dont understand ripple [03:55]
dub you didnt participate in ripple beyond that [03:56]
Namworld yeah... but XRP for BTC IOUs trade works the same way as IOU X for IOU Y trade. [03:56]
Namworld I effectievly tried the trading system [03:56]
Namworld That XRPs are overvalued is not my problem, and if users want to buy them... [03:56]
mircea_popescu the worse part is that not only have they no way to specify da fuck exactly you trust, [03:57]
dub you tried the trading system in the same way that selling credit cards is using the credit system [03:57]
dub which is, not really at all [03:57]
mircea_popescu they tokenize this trust. so basically... instead of having properly identified units you just have one "ripple" [03:57]
mircea_popescu which is thus useless [03:57]
Namworld The "credit cards" appear in the system and are traded the same way as IOUs... [03:58]
mircea_popescu same disaster of commons spiral of death as the price for used cars. [03:58]
mircea_popescu Arthur Britto, Stefan Thomas, and David Schwartz are major contributors to Ripple's development, and all played an active role in Bitcoin's early successes. [03:58]
dub Namworld: so sure, you can buy and sell stolen credit cards right now, its not really using credit cards though [03:58]
mircea_popescu who the fuck are these people anyway ? [03:58]
mircea_popescu minus thomas, who i recall as a cheeky asshole. [03:58]
Namworld I'm saying I effectively used the trading system. [03:59]
dub moneypaks is probably better than CC's for this example [03:59]
Namworld Not that I sent money in a transaction [03:59]
Namworld I used the intercurrency/IOUs trading orderbooks [04:00]
Namworld Of course I could also have sent IOUs or XRPs as a payment transaction [04:00]
dub I don't think thats what the system is intended for [04:00]
mircea_popescu "Even Roger Ver, a.k.a. "Bitcoin Jesus" has to pay his supply chain to keep the Bitcoin Store running, so he can't use Bitcoins either. Roger Ver doesn't accept Bitcoin, he accepts US dollars from BitPay. If even Bitcoin Jesus isn't interested in Bitcoins themselves, then why not let customers use their local currencies from the get-go and take out the Bitcoin middleman?" [04:00]
mircea_popescu that's what the system is intended for lmao [04:00]
dub well, not publicly :) [04:00]
* bdk_kluge has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [04:00]

mircea_popescu complete "i fucking don't understand what bitcoin is so here's a cat with a pancake on its head. just as good" [04:01]
Namworld Instead of a good being purchased tho, I got funds redeemed, actual BTCs [04:01]
Namworld Ripple is a multicurrency trading platform. [04:01]
dub its 'sold' as a way to transfer value between two parties, not transfer value to holders of XRPs [04:02]
mircea_popescu lol [04:02]
Namworld I know that... doesn't change the fact I used all the damn system and it works the same way... [04:02]
Namworld Not my fault if people give so much value to XRPs [04:03]
dub its just convenient that its turned into a system to transfer a lot of BTC to its creators [04:03]
dub Namworld: agreed, you didnt use ripple though [04:03]

mircea_popescu so you can continue this debate forever. it's cute. [04:04]
dub Namworld: you didnt send money, you traded your ability to send money for some btcs [04:05]
Namworld If people valuate XRPs it becomes a currency traded on the system just as much. Technically, XRPs are designed to trade exactly the same as any other issued currency on the system. [04:05]

Namworld I posted on the thread for my free XRP, didn't understand the system, left my XRP there [04:07]
Namworld suddenly, people started buying XRPs for a fuckton of BTC [04:08]
Namworld I took the time to figure out the system and use it. [04:08]

assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 2050 @ 0.00072687 = 1.4901 BTC [-] [04:09]
Namworld They should just not have allowed trading them and charge like 1 cent per XRP, and use 1 per transaction. [04:09]
mircea_popescu i mean, other than getting retards priced out of BTC some playground where they can pretend like they'll matter later. [04:09]
Namworld Low cost transactions, they get financed. [04:09]
Namworld Well anyway... I got 5 BTC for 40k XRPs... 600 bucks for nothing... [04:10]
Namworld except ~1 hour to use the Ripple orderbook to trade XRPs for IOUs and sign up and cashout on BitStamp [04:10]
mircea_popescu Namworld not a bad price to push a scam [04:11]
mircea_popescu pirate was giving out steaks to suckers. [04:11]
Namworld oh, plus making a post when I saw the Ripple thread [04:11]
Namworld I'd do it again anytime. 600 USD/hour is decent. [04:11]
dub mircea_popescu: I don't really see it in the current system but I'm not ruling out the utility of a !btc transaction system of some form [04:12]
mircea_popescu a ok in that sense. yes. [04:12]
mircea_popescu very theoretical and not particularly related to ripple. [04:12]
dub yes [04:12]
mircea_popescu anyway. unless i'm missing something fudnamental (which gets less and less likely as time goes by), ripple is the down syndrome suffering child of some people who really really wanted to matter [04:14]

mircea_popescu my bet is that Namworld's 5 btc is coming from the naive investors trying to push it [04:16]

Namworld To be fair on point #2, the issuer doesn't get anything either out of the issued IOUs. It's not like it requires you to lend them money. It's more like "pay to the bearer X silver/gold coins" IOUs, like early banks did, before state money. [05:13]

mircea_popescu what do you mean doesn't get anything ? [05:15]
mircea_popescu the fact that his debt is accepted is exactly giving him money. [05:15]
Namworld Those IOUs are no different than the balance at the exchange, which if it is showing 200 BTC, it means they owe you 200 BTC. They don't pay interest either on that balance. Same for Ripple IOUs. [05:17]
mircea_popescu as far as i know, if your bank is showing 200 dollars in your account [05:18]
mircea_popescu that bank is paying interest on the 200 [05:18]
Namworld The same apply for both thing, and often the trusted issuers are an exchange (at least for now) [05:19]
Namworld The difference is you expect the bank to invest your money round and make money on that. [05:19]
mircea_popescu i don't care lol. [05:19]

mircea_popescu but as it is... never have, never will. [05:21]
Namworld Well it's pretty much the same. Bitstamp is an issuer on Ripple. You either have a number on BitStamp or on Ripple of have X of currency Y owed to you by them. [05:21]
Namworld So typically people wouldn't expect interest. [05:22]
mircea_popescu but! when i accept this, i undertake someone's CP risk [05:22]

ThickAsThieves is that they are in CHina [18:23]
ThickAsThieves which makes it more likely that any notable competitor of theirs would have to also be there [18:24]
ThickAsThieves due to low costs [18:24]
fiat500 Chaaang-Noi: at this scale they shouldnt be paying divs out, they should be reinvesting and trying to get their hands on as much hardware as possible, soon [18:24]
