ThickAsThieves should anyone be interested, me ranting on Colored Coins (again) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99497.msg4921544#msg4921544 [01:55]
kakobrekla 'fuck fuck shit fuck' would have same effect [01:55]
nubbins` hahaha [01:57]
nubbins` good read, but this ^^ [01:57]
nubbins` advice isn't given, it's taken [01:58]
* Bones (~Bones@c-50-157-26-100.hsd1.tn.comcast.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets [01:58]
ThickAsThieves you never know what lemming the lemmings choose to follow next! [01:58]
kakobrekla hows altcoins doing [01:58]
kakobrekla are we rich yet? [01:58]
nubbins` so i'm wondering if there's a reasonable method by which i could use my s.mg stock warrant as the basis for selling options [01:59]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.EXCH] 2 @ 0.24310363 = 0.4862 BTC [01:59]
nubbins` seems to me like without some sort of pre-existing framework in which to do so (and afaik there is none), there's too much trust involved for it to work [01:59]
kakobrekla is there a market for it? [01:59]
nubbins` well, s.mg is pretty low volume [02:00]
nubbins` but i think in 6-12 months or so, you'll see it priced 3-4x current [02:00]
ThickAsThieves nubbins wants btct style options on mpex [02:01]
ThickAsThieves optionize all the things! [02:01]
nubbins` i don't think there's a market for it today, anyway [02:01]
kakobrekla buy shares then [02:01]
nubbins` thing all the things! [02:01]
ThickAsThieves :) [02:01]
nubbins` what makes you think i don't have any :D [02:02]
ThickAsThieves Altcoin is still waiting for its source code, though I'm wondering if we need to wait and can't just do it ourselves from the genesis block [02:02]
kakobrekla *moar [02:02]
nubbins` heh [02:02]
ThickAsThieves pankakke can you save Altcoin? [02:03]

benkay a few months is the answer [02:13]
benkay for some of the parts [02:13]
benkay mp wants the moon, unsurprisingly. [02:13]
kakobrekla what is altgen io [02:14]
ThickAsThieves i see [02:14]
ThickAsThieves its coingen.io properly [02:14]
benkay the altcoin generation bit is pretty easily did and the exchange its own bundle o' giggles but there are performance considerations around running an arbitrary number of wallet watchers [02:15]
ThickAsThieves so it needs more people [02:15]
benkay ha [02:16]
benkay ever heard of the Mythical Man Month? [02:17]

kakobrekla so, bit4x just made a switch from dBTC to mBTC, which is 1:10 going to 1:1000, but i only feel 10 times richer [02:19]
benkay i can definitely arrange for btc to get burned. i don't think that's a sensible business plan, though. [02:19]

herbijudlestoids mircea_popescu: so is my calculation as the P/E of MPOE to be ~55 correct? [02:50]
Mats_cd03 read: bitcoin tontines [02:50]
ThickAsThieves anyone following the Open Transactions guy? [02:50]
mircea_popescu lol "royal unwasher", i chuckled. [02:50]
ThickAsThieves http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teNzIFu5L70 [02:50]
nubbins` Mats_cd03: funny thing about ideas... [02:50]
mircea_popescu herbijudlestoids sounds about right. [02:50]
ThickAsThieves i like how he's not smooth at all [02:50]
mircea_popescu ThickAsThieves very... zoomedoutedly so to speak. [02:50]
deadweasel Mats_cd03: just's watched the simpsons tontine episode? [02:51]
Mats_cd03 deadweasel: no i was thinking about the double deuces episode in archer just now [02:51]
Mats_cd03 but it looks like nubbins` is rite and i'm unoriginal [02:51]
dub they made more archer? rad [02:51]
deadweasel ah yes, forgot taht one.. those two episode made me laugh harder than I have in months [02:51]
Mats_cd03 kill self [02:52]

ThickAsThieves "i'm gonna make servers that you dont have to trust" [02:52]
herbijudlestoids mircea_popescu: and the div yield ~2.5%? [02:52]

deadweasel tongiht is a new one! [02:52]
mircea_popescu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su-HUDo7XQ4 [02:52]
Mats_cd03 i wish i had friends that would put in for a tontine [02:52]
mircea_popescu herbijudlestoids something like that. depends on how exactly you calculate the reference price. [02:53]
nubbins` what was it, the flying hellfish or something? [02:53]
deadweasel how do you reveal your private key to the right person when you die? holy shit, we need bitcoin TRUST FUNDS... [02:53]
herbijudlestoids so based on those numbers i calculate the "market implied annual EPS growth rate" to be 86% [02:53]
herbijudlestoids (approx) [02:54]
asciilifeform one could conceivably implement it as a 'dead man's switch' [02:54]
Mats_cd03 i imagine it would be in escrow [02:54]
mircea_popescu herbijudlestoids mind that you are calculating something over a very fastly changing curve. [02:54]
deadweasel ah yes, if you don't reply to the email after a month, it's sent out [02:54]
mircea_popescu something akin to "the average value of sin(x)" [02:54]

asciilifeform every year the participants put out crypto-signed whatever, if one doesn't, his share goes in the pot [02:54]
dub hardware dead man switch [02:54]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform once the space stabilizes some i expect tontines will actually work great. [02:54]

mircea_popescu then there were like 3 major craters or so. [02:56]
mircea_popescu after pirate we had a 4 month freezeout which was the worst i ever saw, almost killed the s.dice ipo [02:56]
mircea_popescu it.was.bad. [02:56]
herbijudlestoids so how does that affect my calculation? [02:56]
mircea_popescu i don't think any current sovereign could survive such depression at all. [02:56]
mircea_popescu well... your calculation sits atop and intends to represent an economic reality. which is very fast chaning. [02:57]
herbijudlestoids basically all im saying is that if EPS is expected to grow ~86%p.a. then MPOE is a fair value investment, if less then its overvalued, if more then undervalued [02:57]

nubbins` vulnerability [04:40]
* mike_c (~mike_c@unaffiliated/mike-c/x-9105598) has joined #bitcoin-assets [04:40]
nubbins` even thinking about it gets people riled up [04:40]
nubbins` doesn't even need to be witnessed [04:40]
nubbins` the wetness of an impaling is just icing on the cake [04:40]
nubbins` a hanging will do just fine [04:41]
nubbins` and in a pinch, a recollection of the hanging [04:41]
mircea_popescu so why'd spanking go out of fashion ? [04:41]
nubbins` it didn't [04:41]
nubbins` do you even pornography? [04:41]
mircea_popescu so when's the last time you gave the missus a good spanking ? [04:43]
mircea_popescu plan on doing her children weekly or anything ? [04:43]
nubbins` i'm not saying everyone in the town was jacking off at the gallows [04:43]
nubbins` nor is every man a steroid-riddled ape shouting "HURRR" and slapping a woman's ass purple [04:44]
mircea_popescu so the proposition here is that the same process took out hangings and spankings ? [04:45]
nubbins` just that these are common enough things that share a common characteristic [04:45]
nubbins` no, that the same process made them popular in the first place. [04:45]
nubbins` propriety brought both out of the public eye [04:45]

mircea_popescu as a non-steroid riddled non-ape that has slapped bucnhes of butts purple i tell you i see no appeal in hangings at all. [04:46]
nubbins` sure, and some who eat beef don't eat pork [04:46]
nubbins` some men prefer blondes [04:46]
nubbins` etc [04:46]
mircea_popescu but... pork and beef are still eaten [04:46]
nubbins` and people are still executed [04:46]
mircea_popescu some who care for antique vases don't care for antique knives ? [04:46]
Vexual and the whisky is arely in another castle [04:47]
nubbins` mircea_popescu: sure, and the same attraction to items from a time past is what brings people to collect both [04:47]
mircea_popescu maybe there's something here but perhaps too complicated to easily detach [04:48]
nubbins` this all stems from a quip, really [04:49]
nubbins` consider another angle: humans are driven to have sex because of sexual urges. doesn't mean all humans want to have sex with both genders [04:49]
nubbins` some prefer one, some the other, some both. but the motivation stems from the same source [04:49]
mircea_popescu which quip, the vulnerability ? [04:49]
mircea_popescu afaik women kinda throw up at it. [04:49]
nubbins` "gore is basically porno" [04:50]
mircea_popescu a, a. they're both taboo transgressive, but i doubt they're the same thing really. [04:50]
nubbins` sure, a stretch [04:50]
mircea_popescu the hunter enjoys seeing gazelles gutted and females fucked. [04:50]
nubbins` but the common taboo is vulnerability [04:50]
mircea_popescu doesn't actually mean either women are goats or fucking is gutting, i dun think [04:51]
nubbins` point i was making, i guess, is of course people jacked off at hangings [04:51]
Vexual it might mean you can't shoot a dove if it's nesting [04:51]
mircea_popescu how is vulnerability a taboo ? [04:51]
nubbins` i'm sure there were people jacking off in the theatre when you saw "consent" or w/e it's called [04:51]
mircea_popescu ThickAsThieves you should hire Vexual to do atc shilling i tell you. [04:52]
Vexual incase some brave housecat is deprived of duck milk? [04:52]
nubbins` the vulnerability itself isn't a taboo [04:52]
nubbins` the arousal from it is [04:52]
nubbins` guilty pleasure [04:52]
nubbins` "i'd sure hate for that to happen to me" as one gleefully watches [04:53]
nubbins` not too gleefully, though [04:53]
mircea_popescu nubbins` http://trilema.com/2010/imaginarium/ that's how a theatre looks when i go. [04:53]
nubbins` looks like a lecture hall [04:53]
nubbins` ^ disregard, that was a useless statement [04:54]
mircea_popescu it's actually an old style cinema. built in the 70s, like 1100 places [04:54]
Vexual they you have some balkan craftsmen alter the stage [04:55]

mircea_popescu My thesis about taper is that the banks in the U.S. had mortgage bonds on their books probably close to the tune of a trillion dollars that they could not sell to anyone. It was dead money, and they had to write them off somehow. The problem with writing off close to a trillion dollars’ worth of mortgage bonds that were held in all the U.S. banks is that kind of money is probably more than the total market capitali [05:49]
mircea_popescu zation of the U.S. banking industry. So, they had to figure a way to get those mortgage bonds off the books of the banks and silo them somewhere without basically admitting that the U.S. banking system was insolvent.” [05:49]

Mats_cd03 i recall something on reuters, although min was 1bln rather than 1t [05:50]
mircea_popescu basically, the fed has about 2-3 trillion worth of dead money in its 4trn balance sheet. [05:50]

truffles is that your manual mp? [14:56]

herbijud1estoids well, i dunno if it will last obviously [16:56]
herbijud1estoids but for now its the case [16:56]
herbijud1estoids at some point someone will come in and trade this with volume until the returns are close to cost of capital [16:56]
mircea_popescu me either, but still. [16:56]
mircea_popescu what is "cost of capital" ? [16:57]

herbijud1estoids mircea_popescu: different for different investors, but basically whatever it cost you :P [16:57]
herbijud1estoids if you think you have an edge and borrow a million dollars at 3% to implement an algo that trades this, then obviously your cost of capital is 3%+R&D [16:58]

ThickAsThieves in Kelly criterion, what do you do given infinite EV propositions? [16:59]
mircea_popescu herbijud1estoids my point being that we have a serious problem in this space with that (and other) basic numbers. [16:59]
herbijud1estoids jurov: i really dont have the time to push this much further than i already am with work and other projects but if i get motivated and time i will definitely appreciate any help [16:59]
mircea_popescu according to mpbor it's something crazy like 1k% a year. [16:59]
mircea_popescu according to discounted future cash flow approach it's maybe 0.01% a year. [16:59]
BingoBoingo ThickAsThieves: With a time machine [17:00]
mircea_popescu accorfding to the largest stock in the marketplace it's more like 0.5 - 0.2% a year [17:00]
herbijud1estoids ThickAsThieves: i would check the model to make sure its not broken and if not probly trade on a volatility adjusted level...i like ~15%/pa STDDEV [17:00]
mircea_popescu that sort of divergenge can only be interpreted to mean there's turbulence. [17:00]

nubbins` next thing you know, PLEASE PLACE THE SCANNED ITEM IN THE BAG. PLEASE PLACE THE SCANNED ITEM IN THE BAG. and there's a fuckin cashier helping you out anyway [18:04]
nubbins` mircea_popescu, there's a few farmer's markets around here but a grocery store within walking distance [18:05]
mircea_popescu i got access to engines and shit [18:05]
nubbins` oh sure, me too, but why drive when you can walk? [18:05]
mircea_popescu i got a driver, he can take the groceries back and i can carry on in town [18:05]
nubbins` plus newfoundland produces only about 10% of its own food supply, so farmer's markets aren't a general solution [18:05]

nubbins` mircea_popescu: mostly a lost art these days [18:07]

mircea_popescu small peppers stuffed with cabbage! cucumbers! beets! culiflower! [18:08]
nubbins` people don't really preserve things here as a general rule [18:08]
mircea_popescu there's at least a dozen different sorts of pickles i can't do without [18:08]
nubbins` probably because our parent's generation grew up on a steady diet of salt cod [18:08]
BingoBoingo When the frost came so many of the tomatos were still green that we pickled them as a relish. [18:09]
nubbins` and salt beef [18:09]
mircea_popescu BingoBoingo good for you. [18:09]
nubbins` and were 100% turned on preserved foods by the time the big grocery chains moved in [18:09]
mircea_popescu nubbins` that's why it;'s better to make salt pickes and smoke the meats [18:09]
mircea_popescu than the other way around [18:09]
nubbins` actually, come to think of it, my mother loves pickled beets [18:09]

nubbins` i do some dehydrating and keep a root cellar, grow some veggies in the warmer months [18:11]
nubbins` that's about the extent of it so far [18:11]
mircea_popescu if you have a root cellar you definitely can pickle cabage. [18:12]

mircea_popescu then after the first few weeks each coupla days go there and spend ~10-15 minutes blowing air into the vessel [18:15]

mircea_popescu this has a lot of implications for noob bitcoin devs btw [20:16]
mircea_popescu The scary thing was that I only thought of the true implications of this attack days later. As I was contemplating what had happened and how I could prevent it in the future, a very frightening thought occurred to me. This attacker started with Amazon because he knew that a commerce shopping site’s customer support would be relatively easy to convince and use to gain access to my account. However, that same site offe [20:16]
mircea_popescu rs cloud services that many startups rely on to host their data. My startup, Droplr, is completely based on Amazon’s stack, from using EC2 servers where we host all of our technology to S3, which we use for file storage. This attacker had access to all of it. I was extremely lucky that in his rush to gain access to @jb, he didn’t think to check if my account had anything under AWS. [20:16]

mike_c that's a tough line to hold. it will be interesting if you can keep that up. [20:24]
mircea_popescu happens to be the correct line to hold, so... whatever, they'll have to get it out of my cold dead hands. [20:25]
mike_c hehe [20:25]
mircea_popescu not everything is a brothel. [20:26]
mike_c i would like to be able to use mpex with keys that i sign from my master key that i've registered with you. then i could use cardano with it. [20:26]
mircea_popescu imagine if hospitals were run on the principle of whether the customer was happy. [20:26]
jurov oh, they aren't? [20:26]
mircea_popescu well ideally i should hope not, or else wtf, "which pill would you like to take today, mr j" [20:27]
mircea_popescu "take the ugly pill and shut up" [20:27]
jurov they give you antibitics not cuz you need them, but to make you happy [20:27]
mircea_popescu there you go breaking my eastern bloc ideals. [20:27]
mircea_popescu mike_c if you're really paranoid you can locally generate and sign pushes after each stat. [20:28]
mircea_popescu that way, even if you lose your key you can wipe your account for later. [20:29]
mircea_popescu and it's better in that i don't even need to verify anything. [20:29]
mike_c hm, that's interesting. i'll have to build that into pympex v2 [20:29]
mircea_popescu do you understand the model i mean ? [20:29]
mike_c yeah [20:29]
mircea_popescu like you now use key a, and spare is key b. after each stat for each asset push x to b signed and stored. [20:30]
mircea_popescu yeah [20:30]
davout why after each stat? [20:30]
mircea_popescu you can store the stuff as a list encrypted to b [20:30]
mike_c after each stat so you push all your assets (which changes..) [20:30]
davout why not once for each asset with some high value [20:30]
mircea_popescu davout well that's the point where you find what assets you have. [20:30]
davout just make a stat per asset, and add pushes as assets are added to mpex [20:31]
davout sorry a push per asset [20:31]
mircea_popescu you gotta specify qty [20:31]
jurov if qty is 99999999, it won't work? [20:31]
davout can't you say a bazillion and it takes the min from the qty and your holdings? [20:31]
mircea_popescu afaik if you don't have the right qty it tells you to fuck off. [20:32]

mircea_popescu ahahaha [20:34]
jurov but orders must be taken from stat anyway [20:34]

jurov mircea how would you go about backing up keys from airgapped machine? [20:36]
jurov if you were mpex customer [20:36]
mircea_popescu you can take them to another airgapped machine [20:37]
jurov and that machine to safe? [20:37]

jurov yes but the strike is actually 5000 USD/BTC [23:29]
mircea_popescu technically the lot is .1 but same effect. [23:29]
kingofsports this shit is so confusing. on mpoe it says $500 strike price. put option. a put cant be a strike price above the current price...2nd why would mpex pay .488 BTC per 1 BTC option for $5000 strike price. that is an insane fee. i wouldnt pay more than 0.05 [23:30]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 22250 @ 0.000931 = 20.7148 BTC [+] {4} [23:30]

mircea_popescu kingofsports the losts are .1 btc dood. [23:31]
mircea_popescu lots* [23:31]
kakobrekla its a dBTC denomination [23:32]
kakobrekla took it after Bit4x [23:32]
kakobrekla bastard. [23:32]
mircea_popescu lol [23:32]
Duffer1 kingofsports the ticker would read 050 if the strike was 500$ [23:32]
mircea_popescu srsly. [23:32]
kingofsports oh. [23:32]
mike_c no, they are lots of 100 hBTC [23:32]
Duffer1 500 is 5000$ [23:32]
kingofsports okay got the 5000 down. [23:32]
ThickAsThieves yes, the extra 0 costs mpex too much [23:32]
mircea_popescu 0s are the most expensive part of finance. [23:33]
mike_c bandwidth isn't free [23:33]
mircea_popescu rest is easy. [23:33]
kingofsports now what is 1000 @ .488 = 488 BTC mean? No way mpex bought that option for 488 BTC. [23:33]
ThickAsThieves !b4 [23:33]
ThickAsThieves dammit [23:33]
assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 2 @ 0.129 = 0.258 BTC [-] {2} [23:33]
kingofsports I'd sell that option anyday. 400% gain in price in 30 days. VERY doubtful. [23:33]
mircea_popescu kingofsports mpoe bot bought 1k lots of .1 btc for .488 each, worth 488 total [23:33]
kingofsports so for .488 BTC you have the ability to buy how many BTC option wise for $5000 should it reach that pricew? [23:34]
kakobrekla 22:33.28 ( kingofsports ) I'd sell that option anyday. 400% gain in price in 30 days. VERY doubtful. < never happend in btc, ever. [23:34]
mircea_popescu jesus. [23:34]
kingofsports thats why kako. if mpoe wants that option for such a huge gain id offer it. [23:34]
mircea_popescu kingofsports, calculate for me the present value of one put option on 1 btc struck at 5000 dollars. [23:34]
kingofsports .488 BTC [23:35]
mircea_popescu calculate it, dun copy/paste numbers at me [23:35]
davout lol [23:35]
mircea_popescu what's this, school ? [23:35]
kingofsports according to your site its .488 BTC for 1 BTC option. [23:35]
mircea_popescu never mind that. this is a basic skill, calculating present value of options. do so. [23:35]
kingofsports for 30 days, $5000 strike. [23:35]
jurov ;;calc (5000-852)/852 [23:37]
gribble 4.86854460094 [23:37]
mike_c brown nose ;) [23:37]
mircea_popescu lol [23:37]
kingofsports (5000-800)/(800-(.48 x 800) [23:38]
mircea_popescu so there you have it, jurov enables cheating and thus ensuring people never learn anything. [23:38]
mircea_popescu wait what ?! [23:38]
kingofsports guess im wrong. [23:38]
mircea_popescu puts present value is (strike - spot) / spot. [23:38]
mircea_popescu so yeah, a 1 btc put struck at 5k is worth tm about 4.86 btc. [23:39]
mircea_popescu since these are .1 btc lots, they sold for .488 [23:39]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 3060 @ 0.00092406 = 2.8276 BTC [-] [23:39]
mike_c i always think of it as (strike / spot) - 1 [23:39]
mike_c value - cost [23:39]
kingofsports its a put at 5000 oh. [23:39]
mircea_popescu yes. [23:39]
kingofsports i thought u couldnt offer a put when the strike price is below current price. [23:39]
jurov and why is mpoe buying them at present value? [23:39]
mircea_popescu mike_c that also works. it's really basic fractions after all. [23:39]
kingofsports i mean above [23:40]
mike_c yeah, just a different mental model [23:40]
kingofsports strike price above current price. thought that would only be a call type option. [23:40]
mircea_popescu jurov apparently mpoe doesn't think 852 is the number. [23:40]
mike_c time value! [23:40]
mircea_popescu lol [23:40]
kakobrekla be careful TO spend it before it hits 4k [23:41]
mike_c it's basically buying them at present value and paying nothing for time value [23:41]
mircea_popescu mike_c it paid a little! [23:41]
mike_c yes, a little [23:41]
