Wow, so Mircea Popescu made ~$50,000 that month? Not bad!

Mad propz.

I don't think he's selling BTC, but yeah some cool k's there.
4423  Economy / Securities / F.GIGA.ETF to be delisted on December 1st, 2012. on: October 30, 2012, 05:43:10 PM
As you all know, Nefario's erratic behavior during the past month rendered asset issuers unable to fulfill their obligations to share owners, with hopes of recovery slipping slowly from the realm of the probable to the realm of possible as the weeks went by.

With the recent disappearance of the glbse server from the Internet (502 Bad Gateway as of yesterday) any sort of recovery seems moreover improbable. Consequently we regretfully announce that should the ownership situation of GIGAMINING not be remedied by December 1st, F.GIGA.ETF will be delisted and all shares held discarded as worthless.

The symbol is not currently locked from trading nor will it be locked up until that date, however volume has been consistently zero for the past few weeks. With this we also kindly ask all our full service brokers to check with any clients placing orders on that symbol and make sure they are in fact up to date.

The somewhat concerning part of all this is that as money keeps getting passed back and forth all sums are eventually ground up into smaller and smaller bits until all satoshis are actually broken apart and travel independently (ie, all payments are actually made up of that many satoshi). What then, Satoshalipse?!

No. When a lot of inputs go to one output, they r combined into a big solid chunk of satoshis. Next transaction from the output address will have only 1 input.

Ah ok, thanks for that.

too late for me to make 2btc a month?

EDIT: or early if there's a second round Nov 5

Early if there's a 2nd one, late otherwise.

No, you're right and I apologize that we are not shipping in the estimated six weeks from when I made that post. 

That said, I still stand by the other statements, shipping dates not withstanding.


O look at all the pretty crickets!!!

I wonder: if it read the other way would there have been a posse of a whole lot of nobodies "contributing" their "valuable" contributions at the rate of fifty an hour?

In case "the community" wonders why the people that matter so resoundingly despise it: it's because it's made out of shitheads.

We should also probably require them to mine some Bitcoins by hand, and show their work, so that they learn the value of Bitcoin.

What a marvelous idea! I am authorized to say that the first person completing their re-education by mining one block by hand gets a free MPEx account.

And a lifesize styrofoam pickaxe.

And a commemorative nickel plated stickler&bummer lapel pin.

And carpal tunnel.

Shouldn't you have determined the method to measure effectiveness of your advertising before you started the advertising?

Except it's not exactly advertising. Think of it as a program of sponsored sanity.

Veering back on topic... do you know any Notorious Relic Dealers named Chen? I believe that is critical to the successful implementation of options trading in bitcoin.

Seems intereyest has been gouged.
4432  Bitcoin / Meetups / Re: Bitcoin Conference 2013? on: October 29, 2012, 10:20:13 PM
Given that there's quite obviously a Bitcoin Conference Curse (BCC) actively claiming the organizers within months of the conference's declared success/realized failure (remember the 2011 one, right before Bruce Wagner's wallet thing?) anyone even contemplating this is a brave soul indeed.
4433  Bitcoin / Meetups / Re: Bitcoin Conference 2012- London 15-16 Sept | ANNOUNCEMENT sponsorship available! on: October 29, 2012, 10:19:30 PM
Well I guess I'm learning something new every day... from the amount that James nefario claimed credit for all the planning I assumed that he was the organizer. If it was the intersango jag bags, then I stand corrected, and am even more shocked that anybody attended this gathering of Ali Baba and his 40 thieves.

Someone actually went?!

Good thing Nefario pulled a runner, Usagi can afford his manga again.

The code that determines the 'required fee' is quite complex.  It depends of a whole bunch of factors.  0.0005 is more than is required for some transactions, and much less than is required for others.

It would probably be worth checking that the included fee is sufficient (according the satoshi client's rules) before processing each bet, rather than using a hardcoded value like 0.0005 or 0.001 BTC.

Like deepceleron says, if I place a bet made up of lots of 1 satoshi pieces, the required fee will likely be substantially higher than 0.01 BTC.

The somewhat concerning part of all this is that as money keeps getting passed back and forth all sums are eventually ground up into smaller and smaller bits until all satoshis are actually broken apart and travel independently (ie, all payments are actually made up of that many satoshi). What then, Satoshalipse?!
4436  Economy / Lending / Re: I'm a girl looking for a loan on: October 29, 2012, 09:44:05 PM
If you were a woman I may lend you the money - but I'm not wasting my time with children.

Edit - any woman who calls herself a chick or a girl is just a fat 43 year old mans fantasy - real women don't do that. My mother isn't a chick or a girl - she's a woman, and I'd happily give her a loan.


Chicks under 30 do it all the time.
4437  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bruno vs Roger Ver (1st Bitcoin Match) on: October 29, 2012, 09:27:17 PM
This smells like the viral lead into the announcement of the first ever bitcoin collections agency. Prolly called VerGage or something equally ridiculous.

If any of the whiny allegations are unfounded, you are hereby cordially encouraged to demonstrate it by directly confronting them.
Again, I will in ~6 weeks.  When we ship the ASICs can I expect a public apology from you as well in these forums or are you going to slink off with the rest of the people and try to forget what complete asses you've been?

6 weeks you say? I expect a public apology from BFL for not shipping when they said they would. More likely though Inaba will slink off and hope people forget what a complete ass he's been.

Well...it does say ~6 weeks. So as per instructions here, add two weeks.
4439  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Why trust GLBSE? on: October 29, 2012, 09:21:34 PM
Nefario didn't care to comment then and I'm sure he doesn't care to comment now.  Too elite for open discussion???  Reminds me of many other Bitcoin service providers in high positions.   Undecided

It's no wonder we are seeing a down market trend.  Trust is at an all time low.

You backed the wrong horse, you got burned. Next time back the right horse.
4440  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: October 29, 2012, 09:19:09 PM
Next time I'll go up and ask him wtf is he going to do.

I suggest a different approach if you see him again: just point him and scream like in "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". If an high enough number of us will do it, it may be enough to persuade him to clear his mess now.



Any other ostracism suggestion?

Is this how you date also?
