Cutesy-Puff 1&2 on Ozcoin if anyone was interested. As noted before, all mining income from them is counted as profit without deducting electricity costs. In exchange, I don't list the 5850 in a different pool I'm about breaking even on.

Thanks for that. Did a check through LastPass to see what was shared and greatly increased security & password variations - just in case.

So this was the real project for the $500k to CoinLab. Interesting. (sub)

Can confirm honey arrived in tact. Had a minor allergic reaction after tasting type B honey (the dark stuff). Have severe bee allergy, which I'm assuming was the cause (unless there were fish scales in it or something  ). Just a fwiw-warning if anyone's in the same boat. I had no trouble with the type D honey. Good-tasting stuff, either way! 

~450BTC (in the form of PPUSD investment in an equity from personal funds) was added to the ownership equity today. I am not at liberty to discuss the actual project it was invested in (expect something within three weeks). However, I will be using ~4k BTC in total of BDK funds to make this investment, and wanted everyone to know that I am firmly committed to and expectant of great success with this project, backed up by an >$2k USD "personal" investment in the project. I make this statement because it will likely 2-6 months before BDK can record profit on this move. - And with that said, I'm expecting a record recording. So, short-term (next couple weeks) will show excellent profits, mid-term (3-16 weeks) will show relatively healthy (but not "extreme") profits, long-term (16-32 weeks) should show pretty darn extreme profits.

Fwiw. Cheers!

BDK dividend is doubled in the table for some reason. I paid 0.002134BTC/share, not .004268.

Though... I wouldn't complain much if it were left that way on the table. 

That's how it is. If Burt gets a 50x server error when he goes to sell, there's not much he can do about it.

A large bond-drive is now in effect. For a few days, I plan to have an ask order up @ .1 in a relatively huge amount. There is extremely exciting stuff going into motion everyone will benefit from (not restricted to those involved with BDK). That said, BDK pre-IPO shares are still available, too!

List asset on GLBSE. Open pizza shop in major city. Accept BTC online, obviously also accept fiat CoD. Make "Pizza Day" a monthly event. Franchise it. Pay me 5% royalty on all BTC revenue. Go.

In the US, almost everything using money in your bank account online is done with ACH. You enter in bank account info with a payment processor, they deposit a tiny sum of money in your bank account, then you give the payment processor the exact amount which was deposited and the bank account then becomes tethered to the payment processor account. At that point, withdrawals from the bank account are not necessarily initiated by the owner, as they are done by the payment processor, which often only require login information (or, for Dwolla, login info + a 4-digit PIN code) for such a transaction to be initiated.

It's slow, insecure, reversible (yes, ACH transactions ARE reversible as Dwolla well knows now, though you have to talk to someone at your bank and sign an affidavit), and obsolete, which is why Paypal is so popular -- it lets people use the very flawed credit/debit card system instead of using the awful ACH scheme. The financial systems in the US are junk.

What're you guys going on about? Gavin killed the Satoshi pseudonym as part of a deal with the FBI.

I always can almost always use more OPM 

Speaking of which, I have use of ~1k BTC tonight. Ask order will be up until fulfilled or I go to sleep


ETA: Order removed. Currently 3102 bonds issued.

I have put up 1.5k ask orders @ .1035, 39 bid orders @ .097. I'll watch the trades in #bitcoin-assets to see if the bid wall goes down and put a larger one up if so. I do not intend to allow BDK.BND to fluctuate much like some other bonds.

Trades when I have an interest in making a particular transaction (for instance, if I need BTC to make a loan or something like that, or if I want to reduce what I'm paying to bondholders per month), the bid/ask will be much closer to .1

Cheers!

2 Icarus boards arrived today and are hashing on a separate pool. Income will be included in spreadsheet. Cheers!

Oh -- and I'm doing escrow again until further notice. All previous transactions have been completed.

Arrived today. Hashing like champs. Thanks much Xiangfu & zgzhang.

Thanks for informing me. I didn't know priority increases with coin age.

If we consistently had 14k+ transactions every day (right now, looks like there're occasionally day where there's a net loss of unconfirmed transactions in queue), isn't it reasonable to assume low-priority transactions which already aren't included will likely never be included, and the longer we go with consistently >14k transactions, the more difficult it will be to have a transaction included in a block?

I guess I'm kind of surprised txs aren't given a higher priority if they've been in queue for a longer amount of time. I mean - if there's a tx which hasn't gone through in a week, and the queue of unconfirmed transactions is growing every day, those coins are probably effectively "lost," yeah?

More what? You can move a candidate's vote % from .690001 to .6900012 as opposed to .6900011 if everyone voted? Whoop-de-fuckin'-doo! Get your whole god-damned town together and you might get that candidate's vote % up to .7! For $.50 in gas per person? C'mon.

My point was that people are going to do as they please whether government exists or not (less those with a compulsion to complain, as I am doing right now when I need to sleep), and I doubt most people really give half a damn about it, because they, in very significant numbers, neither respect the law nor the people who pass 'em enough to vote, perhaps because they're largely unaffected by its existence, whether it's because they do something productive with their lives or really aren't really stopped from praying in school. Yeah, some sorry Arab kids'll have propaganda boxes dropped from an airplane on their head after the parachute fails to open, some fellows'll get shot to death for chopping down wood after dark, murderers will flee instead of sticking around, and only SMBs & average working folk'll ever pay taxes, but really... how much time do we, the people interested in politics and philosophy, waste talking about government and complaining about "oppression," which never affects us until Adam Kokesh dances and puts on puppet shows somewhere he's been told not to, when we could be doing all the things we're complaining about not being able to do while the government's busying itself by creating underwear bombers & gun-runners to thwart? ... Well - when they're not arresting Adam Kokesh for his puppet theater, anyway.

I mean... Alright - so there's this ReasonTV piece I watched about a year ago, and they go on and on about all these regulations which prevent people from doing what they want -- "Oh Billy, you want to fix computers in your garage? Too bad, because the county of regulatoria doesn't allow 'computer technicians' to operate without a $500 permit, a degree in neuroscience, and a workplace inspected and cleared by a grand-master moldonomist to be free of dust and mold." Fix the goddamned computers, Billy! Nobody's going to give a rat's ass, and if they do, just ONE time, you can bet there'll be a hen flock numbering in the millions shouting something along the lines of "OH LAWDY! OH LAWDY! What they done t'that po' gile's lem-o-nade stand? Oh Heavens, kids today -- they gettin' vaccinated, crushed by'da po-lease, and 'ey can't even think f'demselves cuz they teache's don' even let'm pray no more. Oh gee my good-dillyumptions - I had a uhh.... Oh, I better call Susan'n tell 'er bout this TRAVESTY! OH LAWD NOOOOOO!" - And then you'll have at least 5k media sources going on and on about one girl whose lemonade stand was shut down - or Billy, who I've completely forgotten about by this time. Those people could've been doing something productive, like writing this half-hearted post when they should be asleep.

- But don't get me wrong -- there're plenty of millage taxes which actually affect me to vote against, and if it happens to fall on the same date as some federal election, may's well punch in a vote for for Alvin Greene and Vermin Supreme.

(What was I writing about?)

Now 3039 bonds in the wild. (3039/10)/100 = 3.039BTC due on Monday.


Cheers!

Alright. All's well thanks to a lot of shouting and screen-pounding from Nef, who I suspect lost a day or two from his life due to stress of figuring out the problem. Thanks, Nef.

Shares have been transferred to CD-holders I owed, and I'll be issuing a bunch of shares on the market within an hour after I finish up some other pending business. Cheers!
