mircea_popescu | jurov` if he can't readily buy bitcoin how would he sell it ? | [00:21] |
mircea_popescu | inb4 he ends up with 7k of mtgox usd he can't actually get sent to his acct and we get a forbes bitcointalk thread | [00:22] |
benkay | why do the traditional short instead of playing options? | [00:22] |
jurov` | Hmmmm.. that's where the lulz come. | [00:22] |
BingoBoingo | ... So the Fortune editor is basically Bakewell 2.0? Can he even ident with gribble? | [00:22] |
ThickAsThieves | he wants to short? | [00:22] |
mircea_popescu | benkay maybe because the plan is to short enough to move the price ? | [00:22] |
ThickAsThieves | how much? | [00:22] |
ThickAsThieves | send him in here | [00:22] |
ThickAsThieves | he'll probly find a deal | [00:23] |
mircea_popescu | why so mean ThickAsThieves | [00:23] |
jurov` | Dunno. Not in mood to investigate. | [00:23] |
benkay | BingoBoingo: he hit irc from a web client. | [00:23] |
ThickAsThieves | mean? | [00:23] |

ThickAsThieves | and I am a Taurus after all | [00:23] |
mircea_popescu | ha. | [00:23] |
benkay | BingoBoingo: implies insufficient familiarity with the toolchain to get in the WoT. | [00:23] |
jurov` | So should i just write him i have friends on irc and they will loan you? | [00:24] |
mircea_popescu | anyway, i would imagine guy got a good enough starter to figure what's what. at this point either he's on a deadline for the next article and well, just drops the entire thing, | [00:24] |
mircea_popescu | or else embarks on the 6 mo to a year of lurking, reading and so on. | [00:24] |

BingoBoingo | This blogger is willing to offer the Senior Editor a 2,500,000 Satoshi Grant to study shorting Bitcoin or a 5,000,000 Satoshi loan | [00:30] |
mircea_popescu | interestingly enough, any arrangement wherein you borrow bitcoin and then sell it is, in fact, an option. | [00:31] |

mircea_popescu | mike_c but your contract has an implicit strike (established by the interest you pay on the borrow and the price you get on the sale) | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | and it has an expiration (established by the borrow) | [00:33] |
mircea_popescu | thus, it's exactly an option. | [00:33] |

mircea_popescu | well yeah | [00:33] |

benkay | i was wondering the other night how likely bitbet would be to displace formal options trading | [00:34] |
mircea_popescu | it's not like i was bored one day and invented a new thing/ | [00:34] |
mircea_popescu | benkay not too likely, it's kinda clunky | [00:34] |

ThickAsThieves | that explains a lot | [01:15] |
mircea_popescu | so rarely women do anything worth the mention. why rob them of the little they do. | [01:16] |
snackman | well, mircea_popescu, sorry but i can't get it out of my head: *why* do you not want to pay me my 10btc back. please just explain it to me in a calm and rational way | [01:16] |
ThickAsThieves | i was just like wow this dude is very progressive with these gay frames | [01:16] |

snackman | mircea_popescu: tbh, it's kinda hard to debate an online nickname that has taken 10btc from you and tries to keep it using "arguments" | [01:23] |
mircea_popescu | jamespeerless no minimum bet so far. | [01:23] |

truffles | why'd he take em snackman? | [01:23] |
Bunnyh | ok,i thought i am | [01:24] |
mircea_popescu | snackman it's not a nickname dood. that's my name. | [01:24] |
mircea_popescu | jamespeerless the reason is that we're oldfags, which means rich, which means with a lot of old coinbases, which means tx are free. or something. | [01:25] |
jamespeerless | what do you mean? why would they be free | [01:25] |
mircea_popescu | the prioritization of txs takes into account the concept of "bitcoin days destroyed" | [01:26] |
mircea_popescu | that's the product of a coinbase's volume with its age. | [01:26] |
* | zboralski (~az@176.27.243.189) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [01:26] |
snackman | truffles: because my transaction was not confirmed in time | [01:26] |
mircea_popescu | so if you have 1k btc that weren't moved for 3 years, you get about 1mn times the priority of a 1btc that was moved yest. | [01:26] |
snackman | truffles: it was placed on the correct bet though | [01:26] |
jamespeerless | got it | [01:27] |
jamespeerless | makes sense | [01:27] |
truffles | snackman gotta read fine prints | [01:27] |
mircea_popescu | in principle it's good for the network to keep moving coins around, i suspect. | [01:27] |
mircea_popescu | or at least satoshi thought so for some reason. | [01:27] |
kakobrekla | imo just bigger chain | [01:27] |
kakobrekla | why | [01:27] |
kakobrekla | where | [01:27] |
mircea_popescu | it's one of the points i don't quite grasp tbh | [01:27] |
snackman | truffles: they weren't, they were FAQs, and i never agreed to them, also this particular clause was *surprising*, therefore not applicable for yet another reason | [01:28] |
mircea_popescu | kakobrekla well because of the particular design, seems implicit in it. | [01:28] |
ThickAsThieves | Hey MP, how bout a compromise, put "Late Bets Will Be Retained" or such on the Send Bitcoins page of bitbet | [01:28] |
snackman | mircea_popescu is only not returning them because he assumes that it is unlikely that i will sue him in romania | [01:28] |
truffles | so ur situation was outside of terms ? | [01:28] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves the problem with this approach is that 1. it empowers nonsense and 2. it bloats pages. | [01:28] |
Vexual | faqs are accepted to form contract | [01:28] |
snackman | truffles: yet, because the txn was sent before, it only arrived later because nobody confirmed it | [01:29] |
dub | interestingly educatoin in .us and .ro sucks somewhat equally | [01:29] |
mike_c | i always took the priority the opposite, that is - it is discouraging moving coins too much by giving recently spent coins lower priority | [01:29] |
kakobrekla | mircea_popescu not like you can mitigate it | [01:29] |
snackman | Vexual: yes, if they explicitely ask you to confirm them, which they didnt | [01:29] |
dub | though dumb romanians are smarter than dumb americans | [01:29] |
snackman | Vexual: also only if there are no surprising clauses | [01:29] |
mircea_popescu | mike_c when i say move coins around i mean, not have very old coinbases. | [01:29] |
ThickAsThieves | so you dont think "reasonable man" is a concept to consider? | [01:29] |
snackman | ? | [01:29] |
ThickAsThieves | a reasonable man would likely assume his bet would either be valid at the time of sending, or refunded at a fee | [01:29] |
Vexual | a reasonable man reads the contract | [01:30] |
* | tbcoin has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | [01:30] |

ThickAsThieves | a reasonable contract typically wouldnt have snares | [01:30] |

mircea_popescu | jamespeerless i'm trying to build bitcoin into an actual thing. | [02:00] |
jamespeerless | by running a gambling website? | [02:00] |
mircea_popescu | by running all sorts of things correctly. | [02:00] |
BingoBoingo | jamespeerless: A great gambling website. I've won moar there than I lost on Satoshidice. | [02:00] |
turbo_ac100 | prediction market. please! | [02:00] |
ThickAsThieves` | maybe bitbet should have a setting for each bet for rate of weight loss | [02:00] |
ThickAsThieves` | a curve | [02:00] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves` it was in the original spec | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | we cut it out, because curve notation is more than the average person can grok mentally | [02:01] |
snackman | mircea_popescu: are you satoshi? | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | and having it graphical turned out to be insanely difficult. | [02:01] |
ThickAsThieves` | so use gfx | [02:01] |
snackman | mircea_popescu: if you are, i take everything back, the megalomania is justified | [02:01] |
ThickAsThieves` | make 3 options | [02:01] |
mike_c | same rationale as 3-way resolutions | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | snackman no, i'm nick szabo. | [02:01] |
snackman | mircea_popescu: so that's a yes | [02:01] |
ThickAsThieves` | fast regular slow | [02:01] |
BingoBoingo | ThickAsThieves`: What's next? Allowing bet creators to specify elliptic curves the bet weight passes through as it degrades over time? | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves` what's wrong with just setting the weight end point to 80k or w.e ? | [02:01] |
ThickAsThieves` | yes, thats what we are talking about | [02:01] |
dub | appears we are past acceptance and into the dick slurping phase of grief | [02:02] |
ThickAsThieves` | i think maybe i misunderstood end weight all along | [02:02] |

BingoBoingo | snackman: The simple answer is to get your bets in much earlier. As close to opening as possible. Just draw a bullseye on a piece of paper and jack off. If more cum is on the right bet yes. On the left bet no. | [02:05] |
snackman | mircea_popescu: not being engrained into mainstream economics by birth certainly helped you | [02:05] |

benkay | snackman: your aggro over 10 seems unwarranted then | [02:07] |

assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 344 @ 0.0029 = 0.9976 BTC [+] | [14:06] |
mircea_popescu | well 1. payouts are done with a lot of human supervision anyway ; | [14:09] |
mircea_popescu | 2. i doubt anyone uses unpatched bitcoin code anymore. | [14:09] |
mircea_popescu | as best as i can determine everyone is on some trunk from .4 to .6 with a bunch of in house patches | [14:10] |
mircea_popescu | it's possible that a significant chunk of users (by headcount) are on .7/.8 or w/e | [14:10] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 500 @ 0.0029 = 1.45 BTC [+] {2} | [14:11] |
mircea_popescu | however, wallets made by those versions won't see a significant chunk of actual bitcoins... likely ever. | [14:11] |
jamespeerless | by the newer versions? why not? | [14:11] |
mircea_popescu | cause the credibility of the dev team is somewhere between nil and epsilon | [14:11] |
jamespeerless | heh | [14:11] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 300 @ 0.0029 = 0.87 BTC [+] {2} | [14:12] |
jamespeerless | so your outlook on the future of bit coin protocol is bleak? | [14:12] |
mircea_popescu | im not sure what you're asking. | [14:12] |
mircea_popescu | but anyway, rather than have you shoot in the dark, here's the story : | [14:12] |
jamespeerless | if you're saying the current dev's contributing to bit coin are no good and its clear bit coin will require more work to be 'production ready' then without some change the future is bleak | [14:13] |
jamespeerless | is what i meant | [14:13] |
mircea_popescu | 1. bitcoin was released as a prototype. that means something specific, and what it means doesn't include "to be used for any actual purpose". prototypes are there to test. | [14:13] |
mircea_popescu | 2. people started using it anyway, because it was there. this is how things usually work. | [14:13] |
mircea_popescu | 3. once satoshi left the dev team never recovered. it's roughly what the linux dev team would be if linus left. | [14:13] |
mircea_popescu | basically a collection of people with poor iq and worse skills, hanging on because they perceive this as sexy, and imagine hanging on makes them somehow important. | [14:14] |
* | lewicki has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | [14:14] |
mircea_popescu | 4. at the right time (ie 2012) i pointed out to them that their only chance to maintain any semblance of relevance is to fully specify the code. | [14:15] |
mircea_popescu | this, obviously, is a very hard task. they, aware of their intellectual limitations, eschewed this task. | [14:15] |
mircea_popescu | 5. the situation has evolved in the exact direction i was expecting : absent a specification everyone is using their own in house concoctions. | [14:15] |
ThickAsThieves | i smell a blog post coming on | [14:16] |
mircea_popescu | this will aggravate over time, with miners and large merchants all pushing on the code, | [14:16] |
jamespeerless | how can it work if everyone is using their own in-house modified version yet they all need to communicate together | [14:16] |
mircea_popescu | and with "the network accepts it" as pretty much the only measure of good or evil. | [14:16] |
mircea_popescu | well that's just it, the network blindly decides. | [14:16] |
mircea_popescu | this will be a major resource black hole in the coming years, but it does not threaten the system itself. | [14:17] |
mircea_popescu | if anything, it makes the system stronger. | [14:17] |
KRS|gotyawallet | the anatomy of a blog post | [14:17] |
mircea_popescu | it DOES however threaten any one actor, and ESPECIALLY actors acting on deluded presumptions, | [14:17] |
mircea_popescu | such as the snackman kid. | [14:17] |
jamespeerless | doesn't this lend itself to a couple big corps from releasing their own widely adopted forks.. similar to os x and the 5000 flavors of linux? | [14:18] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 13545 @ 0.00081026 = 10.975 BTC [-] | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | no. | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | because, again, bitcoin is about money. | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | as long as those big corps don't actually have big btc, they aren't big corps | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | they just thing themselves big. | [14:18] |
ThickAsThieves | how does one "release" a "widely adopted" fork? | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | exactly. | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | 0.8 is a widely adopted fork. | [14:18] |
mircea_popescu | so ? | [14:18] |
pankkake | see web browsers and web servers | [14:19] |
mircea_popescu | i've had people spend 1000s of hours modelling this point, as it's the one most important point in all bitcoin | [14:19] |
jamespeerless | yeah guess as long as they don't have any way to make money off of it, it won't happen | [14:19] |
mircea_popescu | i'm not seeing anything particularly worrisome | [14:19] |

ozbot | Why Regulate Bitcoin? : The New Yorker | [15:21] |
ThickAsThieves | "There may, however, be good cause for regulation. There have been several high-profile thefts of bitcoins recently, including a hacker attack last week on a Czech exchange called Bitcash.cz that emptied four thousand digital wallets belonging to customers. Also this month, an eighteen-year-old man in Australia who was running a Bitcoin “bank” announced that more than four thousand | [15:22] |
ThickAsThieves | bitcoins had been stolen from his Web site, most of them belonging to users. In any industry, one of the strongest arguments in favor of regulation is the need for consumer protection—something bitcoin currently lacks." | [15:22] |
ThickAsThieves | lol so US regulation will also help the Czech and Aus? | [15:22] |
mircea_popescu | if one of the strongest arguments in favour of regulation really is the perceived need for consumer protection, | [15:22] |
pankkake | I wasn't aware regulation prevented stealing | [15:22] |

mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves amusingly, bitcoin resolves definitively the issue of net neutrality. | [15:31] |
pankkake | and namecoin! | [15:32] |
mircea_popescu | whatever anyone could possibly throw at hte problem, bitcoin has billions soon to be trillions of vested interest. | [15:32] |
mircea_popescu | nobody can fight that and win. | [15:32] |
Duffer1 | not necessarily mp | [15:32] |
mircea_popescu | i guess we shall see. | [15:32] |
Duffer1 | at least in america the net neutrality issue also involves isp bandwidth limiting and paywalling | [15:32] |
Duffer1 | pay x more to access premium sites like x,y,z | [15:33] |
mircea_popescu | any isp is free to issue you whatever contract they want, and you don't have to take it. | [15:33] |
mircea_popescu | as long as there's ppl holding bitcoins, there will be a market to provide them with internet. | [15:34] |
Duffer1 | i don't see that happening in america, major monopolies are protected state to state | [15:34] |
Duffer1 | startups are sued into the ground or bought outright | [15:34] |
Duffer1 | exclusivity contracts are the norm | [15:35] |
mircea_popescu | well conversely, i don't see the us as much of a point of interest anyway, it's on its last legs as is. | [15:35] |
Duffer1 | i agree, i just hate to see it happening | [15:35] |

Azelphur | they don't need to be aimed at anyone specific | [18:50] |
ThickAsThieves | there are several competent and experienced people here that may be able to answer different questions best | [18:52] |
stephengandel | OK. On ICBIT there is a BTC/USC 12.13 contract that has a range of prices all above the current price of a bitcoin to USD. So I am guessing these are the strike prices? I was told that a contract costs $10. But that can't be the same for all the strike prices. I am trying to figure out what it costs to sell futures contract. | [18:54] |
ThickAsThieves | ah, one thing I can tell you is you will find more ICBIT users in #bitcoin-analysis | [18:55] |
ThickAsThieves | it is not trusted by some in here | [18:55] |
stephengandel | OK, Can I find the same info for coinbr? | [18:55] |
ThickAsThieves | youre in the right room for coinbr | [18:56] |
ThickAsThieves | jurov runs it | [18:56] |
jurov` | stephengandel: i'm the owner of coinbr | [18:56] |
ThickAsThieves | and mircea_popescu runs MPEx, the exchange it brokers with | [18:56] |
jurov` | All options are priced in bitcoins, and the prices are publisjed on http://mpex.co | [18:57] |
stephengandel | OK. On MPEx, what does it mean that the price of o.usd.co50T is 0.785 | [18:57] |
stephengandel | sorry, 0.0785? | [18:57] |
stephengandel | Is that of a bitcoin? | [18:57] |
jurov` | it's call to buy 0.1btc for $50 | [18:58] |
* | benkay (~user@c-67-189-93-93.hsd1.or.comcast.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [18:58] |
jurov` | (that means price per 1BTC would be $500) | [18:58] |
jurov` | and on exercise, you will get (in bitcoins) the difference between intrinsic value and current 24h weighed price | [18:59] |
jurov` | or nothing, if price is <=500 | [18:59] |
stephengandel | intrinsic value is 500 for this contract. | [18:59] |
stephengandel | And that' | [18:59] |
stephengandel | that's if I buy. | [19:00] |
stephengandel | what if I sell the contract? | [19:00] |
ThickAsThieves | you can sell it for any price you like | [19:00] |
ThickAsThieves | if you are trying to write and sell options that's a bit different | [19:01] |
stephengandel | Yes. Trying to bet on a drop in the price of bitcoins. | [19:01] |
ThickAsThieves | you might need to talk to Mircea | [19:02] |

Apocalyptic | not calls | [19:02] |
ThickAsThieves | not sure if jurov facilitates writing via coinbr | [19:02] |
stephengandel | or sell calls? | [19:02] |
ThickAsThieves | yes | [19:02] |

stephengandel | Is it the same if I go through coinbr as MPEx? | [19:04] |
ThickAsThieves | I think you would need an MPEx account, and to negotiate margin with mircea_popescu | [19:04] |
ThickAsThieves | he might even have details in the FAQ | [19:04] |
jurov` | stephengandel: yes it's the same, unless you get margin form mircea_popescu | [19:05] |

stephengandel | So to do this on coinbr. I would have to open an account for 30 BTC, $30,000? | [19:07] |
jurov` | No | [19:07] |
jurov` | 30BTC is account directly on MPEx. | [19:07] |
stephengandel | I don't understand. | [19:07] |
jurov` | CoinBr offers account for free, only with small monthly fees | [19:07] |
jurov` | because it's a broker that enables users to use one shared mpex account | [19:07] |
ThickAsThieves | wouldnt mircea require a direct account for margin users? | [19:08] |
jurov` | Yes, if you insist on margin, it's probably best to talk to mircea_popescu directly. | [19:08] |

jurov` | for buying or selling you either match the orders published by MPOE | [19:27] |
jurov` | they are on mpex.co | [19:27] |
jurov` | puts as O.USD.P*** | [19:28] |

assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 1540 @ 0.00299693 = 4.6153 BTC [+] {3} | [19:29] |
stephengandel | OK. spread on the p050 contract appears to be huge | [19:29] |
ThickAsThieves | that's because a bot algo manages constant orders | [19:29] |
ThickAsThieves | currently the risk is high | [19:30] |
ThickAsThieves | and thus so is the spread and premium | [19:30] |

stephengandel | So for the p080 contract, it would cost me roughly $1.70 to but the contract., with bitcoins at a current 1100. What would I make if bitcoins go down to 1000 or 900? | [19:38] |
ThickAsThieves | you would lose money | [19:39] |
stephengandel | But I bought a put? | [19:39] |
ThickAsThieves | last i checked all the options require extreme price movement to profit | [19:39] |
ThickAsThieves | 10-15% wont even be close | [19:40] |
stephengandel | Do bitcoins have to go down to 800 for the p080 contract to be worth something, or below 800? | [19:40] |
ThickAsThieves | they have to offset your premium | [19:41] |
stephengandel | Is it different if I was selling a call vs. buying a put? | [19:42] |
ThickAsThieves | Namworld, is your calculator still functional? | [19:42] |
stephengandel | Seems like selling a call I could make money even if they went down a little bit? | [19:42] |

ThickAsThieves | and you'd be shaving small % | [19:43] |
jurov` | yes, if you sell to bot, you need large price movement | [19:43] |
* | Scrat has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) | [19:44] |
stephengandel | And also I have the problem that all of this would be settled in bitcoins, so any money I made on the futures bet against bitcoins would be offset by the fact that I own bitcoins, which would be worth less in dollars. | [19:44] |
stephengandel | Just trying to figure out the calculation. Anyway you could run me through the transaction? | [19:44] |
ThickAsThieves | well you'd be buying the bitcoins at a lower price than the current value if you surpass your premium | [19:45] |
ThickAsThieves | so you could then sell them at a profit | [19:45] |
stephengandel | what if bought a p110, which is essentially where the price is now right? It would cost me $6.19 a contract. Is that right? | [19:46] |
jurov` | ;;calc 0.04537758*1079 | [19:47] |
gribble | 48.96240882 | [19:47] |
stephengandel | So if the price of a bitcoin went down to 1000 when the contract settled, I would make $10 minus the cost of the contract, or $3.80 | [19:48] |
jurov` | ^ it's $49 | [19:48] |
ThickAsThieves | juriv is showing you that you have your cost wrong | [19:48] |
stephengandel | but that's the price to sell. I am buying a put. | [19:49] |
stephengandel | So I have to pay the selling price to buy a put? | [19:49] |
ThickAsThieves | there are puts for sale with their own prices | [19:49] |
ThickAsThieves | of course | [19:49] |
jurov` | SELL QTY means mpex is selling to you | [19:50] |
mike_c | ThickAsThieves: you don't need margin to write/sell options on mpex. you just put up btc as collateral. | [19:50] |
jurov` | hence, price 0.0453775 applies | [19:50] |
ThickAsThieves | I see | [19:50] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 735 @ 0.00299944 = 2.2046 BTC [+] {3} | [19:51] |
stephengandel | OK so it would cost me $49, and if a bitcoin drops to 1000, then I lose $39. For me to start making bitcoins have to drop to $610. Is that right? | [19:51] |
ThickAsThieves | sounds right | [19:51] |
jurov` | yes | [19:51] |
stephengandel | And then I have the problem that I have to convert that back to dollars, and in doing that I will have lost money on my bitcoins because they will have dropped in value. | [19:52] |
jurov` | no you will get the $49 back in bitcoins at current rate | [19:52] |
jurov` | so you'll be even | [19:53] |
stephengandel | Not at the rate on the day the contract settles? | [19:53] |
jurov` | they are american, so you can exercise them anytime | [19:53] |
stephengandel | even in bitcoins, but not in dollars? | [19:53] |
jurov` | and current rate at exercise time applies | [19:53] |
jurov` | what do you mean? | [19:54] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 84 @ 0.003 = 0.252 BTC [+] {4} | [19:54] |
mike_c | no, even in dollars, that's the point. It's a hedge against bitcoin dropping | [19:54] |
ThickAsThieves | hence Buying the Put | [19:55] |
ThickAsThieves | rather than selling it | [19:55] |
mike_c | thestringpuller:oh man whoever wrote those options is over exposed << not if they aren't speculating. if it is a miner hedging, then they aren't over-exposed. | [19:55] |

jurov` | coinbr does not touch fiat | [20:07] |
stephengandel | ok on mpeX | [20:07] |
ThickAsThieves | them either | [20:07] |
mike_c | Buy 0.1 BTC for $110. Buy two P110T for 0.09 BTC. price drops to 500. Excercise for .24 btc. total btc is now 0.25 btc worth $125. go party with $15 gain. | [20:07] |
jurov` | mpex either | [20:07] |
ThickAsThieves | you want coinbase or campbx or mtgox or bitstamp | [20:07] |
ThickAsThieves | etc | [20:07] |
jurov` | you neex fiat-to-bitcoin exchange, like mtgox | [20:07] |
ThickAsThieves | etc | [20:07] |
stephengandel | yes, that's my point. since all of this will be done in bitcoins, when I exchange back, won't I lose money, but maybe I have this wrong? | [20:08] |
Namworld | Is it me or is the breakeven on calls in the 15000+ USD/BTC? | [20:08] |
mike_c | see my example. | [20:08] |
mike_c | you make $15 | [20:08] |
ThickAsThieves | do it 100 times and you make $1500 :) | [20:09] |
ThickAsThieves | less exchange fees | [20:09] |
ThickAsThieves | typically in the 1% range | [20:09] |
stephengandel | OK. | [20:09] |
jurov` | yes. in your example you will get *$60 worth of bitcoins* | [20:09] |

jurov` | such small amount is best to sell to colleague or so | [20:10] |
jurov` | and buying too, jusr meet some bitcoin anthusiast and buy by cash | [20:11] |

mike_c | scam! | [20:15] |
mike_c | (j/k) | [20:15] |
stephengandel | mike_c, if I just do one contract. I lose money, right? Because I was sitting with bitcoins, or because of the leverage? Maybe both? | [20:16] |
mike_c | right, if you are shorting you want to only buy as many bitcoins as it takes to buy the number of options you want | [20:16] |
mike_c | otherwise you are exposed with the leftover btc | [20:16] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 47 @ 0.00323999 = 0.1523 BTC [+] {2} | [20:17] |
iamnot_ | pankkake: ´recalled´ sounds bad. does that mean TAT bought back everyone´s bonds? | [20:17] |

pankkake | iamnot_: yes. but it's not bad, anyone buying it at ip(v)o benifited heavily from divs + early 105% recall | [20:18] |
stephengandel | And if I buy two contracts and instead the price goes up by 54% or to $1694, then I lose what? | [20:18] |
stephengandel | Just what it cost me to buy the puts or more? | [20:18] |
jurov` | everything. the option becomes worthless. | [20:18] |
mike_c | your options expire worthless, so you just lose what you paid. | [20:18] |
iamnot_ | pankkake: hmm i see. yes, i miss daily dividends. hopefully something else will come along. | [20:18] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.33 BTC [-] | [20:19] |
stephengandel | I guess that's the advantage of buying a put rather than selling a call. Because if I sold a call I could lose an unlimited amount. | [20:19] |
jurov` | no, you will at most lose the collateral | [20:19] |
mike_c | right, selling has higher risk profile. | [20:19] |
pankkake | I hope so; I have not invested elsewhere really | [20:19] |
jurov` | if you wrote the option | [20:19] |
stephengandel | But again, to sell a call I would have to open a MPEx account? | [20:19] |
stephengandel | is wrote an option the same as selling a call? | [20:20] |
* | mois has quit (Client Quit) | [20:20] |
jurov` | stephengandel: no, coinbr allows you to write options under the same conditions as mpex | [20:20] |
mike_c | jurov`: is that true? i would expect that if the loss was higher than collateral the difference would come out of your mpex account. | [20:20] |
jurov` | only thing we won't do, is to provide margin | [20:20] |
jurov` | you understand the difference between collateral and margin? | [20:20] |
stephengandel | Not really. How much collateral would I have to put up? | [20:21] |
stephengandel | strike / spot BTCUSD + some MPEx-proprietary padding | [20:21] |
jurov` | yes | [20:21] |
jurov` | if the exercise requires more, that's up for MPEx to pay | [20:21] |
ThickAsThieves | [20:22] | |
jurov` | but that would also mean bitcoin falling catastctphically | [20:22] |

jurov` | KRS|gotyawallet: ^ here is the answer | [21:01] |
jurov` | and it won't be much different at $10k | [21:01] |
nubbins` | he seems to be operating under the assumption that exchanges aren't a place where buyers and sellers meet | [21:01] |
nubbins` | i mean, in order to convert x btc into $50m, other users have to put that $50m into the exchange | [21:02] |

nubbins` | or am i missing something | [21:02] |
KRS|gotyawallet | i think | [21:03] |
KRS|gotyawallet | thats the main point of the article, nubbins..as i read it | [21:03] |
nubbins` | this guy seems to think that each time you buy 1 btc, it's the exchange that had them and is selling to you | [21:03] |
KRS|gotyawallet | more like ;;market sell 140000 | [21:03] |

KRS|gotyawallet | the article questions..why are these big chunks moving at all? maybe because people are realizing they are there and to shuffle them around a bit? idk | [21:10] |
nubbins` | when you win the lotto, you can get a lump sum payment of much lesser value, or you can get yearly/monthly payments that total a greater amount | [21:10] |
nubbins` | this is similar to a whale cashing out btc | [21:11] |

stephengandel | If I took that contract I would have to hedge, right? | [21:52] |
stephengandel | How do I do that? Just kidding. | [21:53] |
* | DefectiveNu has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) | [21:53] |
jurov` | hedge what? | [21:53] |
Vexual | tounge in cheek? eds and sics? | [21:53] |
nubbins` | asciilifeform: the real rub is that the soldering iron can create new arses | [21:54] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 50 @ 0.003 = 0.15 BTC [-] | [21:54] |
nubbins` | the obvious defence is to say you lost it all on asicminer shares. | [21:54] |
stephengandel | I could open a bitcoin account on coinbr for 0.1 and then if I could get someone to take it write a call option. Right? Sounds like 0.1 is enough collateral. | [21:55] |
jurov` | yes, should be (also depending on which option you want) | [21:56] |

stephengandel | Do you have any idea how much I would make if I sold a call and bitcoins went to $500. I don't know how to do that math. | [21:58] |
nubbins` | at the risk of being cheeky, you might wish to learn the math before you start moving money around :) | [21:58] |
* | mjoiii_ (~Android@108-162-153-218.cable.teksavvy.com) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [21:59] |
nubbins` | although i guess that's one of the reasons why you're here, hey? | [21:59] |
stephengandel | Yes. Call option pricing more than just regular math | [21:59] |
ThickAsThieves | to add to the cheekiness, are suuuuure you wanna bet on BTC falling that much? | [21:59] |
nubbins` | heh | [21:59] |
ThickAsThieves | and then who's gonna buy your call? | [21:59] |
nubbins` | i don't bet anymore, or even invest | [22:00] |
nubbins` | i just hold | [22:00] |
stephengandel | But was able to figure out put price so half way there. | [22:00] |
stephengandel | Is that the same with the put, or do you think I would find someone that would sell me a put with 1100 strike price | [22:00] |

stephengandel | If I wanted to buy that contract. I think so, right seems like I would be paying a lot for it | [22:01] |
jurov` | stephengandel: what about if i sell you P110Ts at 0.0033 per? | [22:03] |
* | DefectiveNu (~Henry@173-101-15-72.pools.spcsdns.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [22:03] |
jurov` | you can buy 3 of them for 0.1 | [22:03] |
jurov` | and once on coinbr account, you'll be free to odo with them as you please | [22:03] |
ThickAsThieves | nice | [22:04] |
jurov` | *er.. fix: 0.033 | [22:04] |
stephengandel | so you are saying I could get a better price than the 0.045 we were talking about before? | [22:11] |
jurov` | yes. instead of the bot, i will write the options and sell to you | [22:11] |
stephengandel | So the prices on mpex aren't real? | [22:11] |
jurov` | there's a bot a marketmaker, and her prices are real | [22:12] |
jurov` | but anyone can offer other price | [22:12] |
jurov` | also real | [22:12] |
* | DefectiveNu has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) | [22:12] |
stephengandel | And I could get a better price from you? | [22:12] |
kakobrekla | is this real life? | [22:12] |
stephengandel | What's the price if I wanted to sell the 050 call? | [22:13] |
stephengandel | I guess what would you pay me? | [22:13] |
* | DefectiveNu (~Henry@pool-173-54-1-90.nwrknj.fios.verizon.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [22:13] |
stephengandel | Still don't understand how to figure out what that would be worth if the price of a bitcoin drops | [22:13] |
ThickAsThieves | kakobrekla, no this is IRC | [22:13] |
ThickAsThieves | just take the value you want it to settle at | [22:14] |
ThickAsThieves | and subract your premium | [22:14] |
jurov` | current intrinsic value of C050 is about $650 = B0.565 | [22:15] |
jurov` | oh sry that would be for 10 of them | [22:16] |
jurov` | one is B0.0565 | [22:16] |
jurov` | mhm...i'd pay 0.06. i'm not so sure it will go up so much. | [22:17] |
pankkake | IRC is real life to me. the world outside is useless and boring | [22:18] |
pankkake | "and then who's gonna buy your call?" ghostbusters? | [22:18] |
jurov` | no i'll exercise it | [22:19] |
Vexual | megabyte blocks everywhere | [22:24] |
pankkake | scammers mixing coins! | [22:25] |

Namworld | what? | [23:11] |
stephengandel | hey, jurov, the fee for buying a put is 1%. Is that for buying and sell? | [23:11] |
Namworld | Arg, stupid mIRC | [23:11] |
stephengandel | Meaning I would pay 1% of my 0.1 when I buy and 1% of what it is worth when I exercize the contract if I do. | [23:11] |
Namworld | this not be right at all. Why did it put that in the clipboard | [23:12] |
stephengandel | Or is it just the 1% when I buy the put | [23:12] |
Namworld | darn | [23:13] |
