MPEx registration fee bumped to 30 BTC.

[MPOE-PR]

As the title says, the fee for opening a new account on MPEx is 30 BTC, effective immediately. Already existing accounts are unaffected. The fee is projected to keep increasing for the indeterminate future.

Maybe not, but I wouldn't give ~400 dollars for nothing to someone who cannot pay 10 dollars for a domain; so hosts it on a subdomain of a site which hosts child prn anyway.

MPEx has two assets I think are possibly worthwhile: SatoshiDICE and BitVPS.  There are pass-throughs for both of them on GLBSE.

Stop and think for a minute. There's this exchange website which deliberately eschews turning itself into a broker, in order to allow people in the community to do something useful by themselves. It deliberately and at some expense is designed and built to empower the community.

And what you do is trashtalk it and so forth?

How much is security worth to you?  GPG signed orders, huge liquidity in some issues (S.MPOE), only quality companies.

WOW 30btcs to use a site that is designed worst than craigslist and has two stocks.

The reason there are only 4 stocks is that there are only 4 companies out there that are worth investing in.  The rest are either scams or run by the incompetent.

The site is fully functional, and once you figure out how to do the gpg stuff (a bit tricky), which is REQUIRED if you care about security of your coins, you can place and cancel trades more quickly than on the former exchange known as GLBSE.

Let me tell you. :-)

1) They are easy to use once you get to know how to use them.  Much like any computer application.  They are for power users, not people who expect F1 to be the DWIM key.

2) Expensive is relative.  The cost to the average user is not major compared to the ROI.  There are less expensive options for day traders and other consumer-level traders, but they don't have the full featureset (which you may not need).

3) They are *nuts* about innovation.  They keep the interface pretty static (which makes sense) and continually test and improve the backend.

4) Per #1, the industrial ubiquity means that you can go from terminal to terminal, floor to floor, and while the layout may be different, you'll be able to use the system.  Your dad can teach you how to use it, if he's in the industry.  The number of people who can help you (beyond the people coming out from Bloomberg to train you, or at their corp facility) is immense.

Bitcoin is all about crowdsourcing. Besides, it's better for potential issuers/shareholders that there are more users on the site to drive volume, this will not help that.

You could hire Josef Fritzl to be your PR person and present a better public image.

MPEx could have so much potential, all it needs is:

-Lower registration fees. Make up for it by charging more for listings if you like, but I don't see why many people paying $350 to trade the paltry few securities on there at the minute, particularly with the regulatory risk involved. More users = more volume = more securities.
-A site that doesn't look like absolute arse. Again, this would bring in more users, image is important to a lot of people.
-Its own domain name that it doesn't share with a romanian porn site (I mean really, nice image).
-A PR person who understands that "Public Relations" is supposed to be about being helpful and polite, getting your exchange some good rep and some good publicity. Alternatively you could get a Grizzly Bear in an SS uniform, that'd be a slight step up from the current PR rep.

Unfortunately the chances of that happening are about the same as the chances of me finding buried treasure in my garden, so I guess we'll just have to wait for some budding entrepreneur to set up a viable GLBSE replacement.

Peeps, just please stop repeating this cliche.

Conglomerate domains have their tactical uses, in this case as probably as a anti-filtering and anti-takedown measure. I don't have a specific knowledge about polimedia.us and Romania; but a conglomerate domain that would host a bitcoin securities exchange and a financial news site would have a very good prior restraint defense against stupid takedowns.

In Europe this tactic worked for the users of LiveJournal and many other traditional publishers.

This "dedicated domain name" really is a cheapo marketing shibboleth. If you don't believe me, read the post of the local hit&run marketing expert: reeses. Of course I have to quote it in full, since reeses always doing the purge of his posts before he runs.

The owner of mpex hosts it on his servers. Just search the forums lots of people reference it.

It is kind of silly not to have a dedicated domain for mpex.  However, while there is pr0ns available via the same hostname, there is no child pornography there.  That's just an added level of "eww" made up by ciuciu when "he also hosts porn" didn't have any effect.  It also hosts a boring blog in moon-man gibberish.

None of the people claiming there is child pornography on the site has been able to provide evidence beyond,"Look for yourself," which you can understand my unwillingness to do.  It's a romanian 4chan, so weird shit pops up from the members.

What makes you think that you have "a security" or you'd be even remotely considered? Seriously now...

So you are basically saying: Unless you have 3 months of revenue in bitcoin, go away. Clearly, MPEx is not there to provide crowd funding for small projects. Serious entrants only. Unlike GLBSE, the operator does not see this as a "toy".


From a PM to me:

When GLBSE started, it was a fun project that was mostly a toy, using for all intents and purposes monopoly money.

Even if I did meet your standards, I would not list with you. Your site looks like shit... Vote on that? And you speak from emotions just like nef did, which makes you just as bad. It does not matter if you are the leader or not you still make the site look bad. See what I said before was just from a outside view and you took it personal not as a learning tool. Stop taking it so personal and worry about your business and not your feelings.

Alternatively you could get a Grizzly Bear in an SS uniform, that'd be a slight step up from the current PR rep.

Bitcoin macht frei!

Anyone here heard of Marc Emery... Never came to the U.S. but is in us prison or how about Manuel Antonio Noriega just some people that never set foot in the U.S. but pissed off the gov. They think they are free and clear thanks to a legal team... U.S VS YOU  The U.S. bank roll = everlasting compared to MPEx = small I am sure lol

I could give two flips less if you let me in your exchange, it is no better then mine... which does not exist lol. Your exchange is in just as much danger as the others do not down play it. The thing is if you do not comply the chance for loss is larger....... which you said you would do already.

Peeps, just please stop repeating this cliche.

Conglomerate domains have their tactical uses, in this case as probably as a anti-filtering and anti-takedown measure. I don't have a specific knowledge about polimedia.us and Romania; but a conglomerate domain that would host a bitcoin securities exchange and a financial news site would have a very good prior restraint defense against stupid takedowns.

In Europe this tactic worked for the users of LiveJournal and many other traditional publishers.

This "dedicated domain name" really is a cheapo marketing shibboleth. If you don't believe me, read the post of the local hit&run marketing expert: reeses. Of course I have to quote it in full, since reeses always doing the purge of his posts before he runs.

Whoa, you should get a prize or something. The sheepsies in clown costumes running around here have been struggling with this for what, a month now? Two?

You ever heard of George Soros?

[BitcoinINV]

George Soros, can not be related to bitcoin in any way if so please point out how....

[BitcoinINV]

No hablo?
أنا لا أتكلم ?
Je ne parle pas?
Δεν μιλώ?

The last time I was not lazy and double checked the community blasted me for "Talking to the feds".
Or is that past you? Fuck your lazy talk and fuck your shrimp talk bubba gump. I'm done being nice to bitcoin people.................

[MPOE-PR]

Well firstly, we weren't discussing bitcoin. You were yakking about "pissing off the gubermint". Soros' been a fugitive from US justice for what, 20 years now? 30? Just because wikipedia doesn't tell you things you shouldn't know doesn't mean they don't exist. (Tax fraud).

And since we're naming names, Roman Polanski might work too, tho he wasn't either rich or important enough to really matter in this discussion. Oh, and that wikileaks guy is still giving your wanna-be "gov't of whole world" the finger.

Wake up and smell the coffee. It's a big world and it mostly doesn't give a bacon wrapped shit about the US. Every highschool has this retarded kid who thinks he "dominates" or w/e. Usually twenty years later he's the janitor working some highway gas station.
