have you ever thought about adding the ability to short mpex stocks to coinbr? seems like it would be a great service for you as a brokerage. |
09:38 |
mike_c |
let people lend shares at an interest rate, and let others borrow (with btc collateral) to short. |
09:41 |
thestringpuller |
mike_c dunno if there is enough volume for that |
09:43 |
mike_c |
it is grease for the wheels. |
09:45 |
mike_c |
like right now, s.bbet has a big bid/ask spread. but it can be tough to market-make a stock if you can't borrow shares to sell. |
09:45 |
mike_c |
and obviously there is plenty of s.mpoe volume |
09:45 |
mike_c |
and volatility |
09:47 |
thestringpuller |
volume was a bad word |
09:47 |
thestringpuller |
i dunno if there is enough inventory |
09:47 |
thestringpuller |
volume was completely the wrong word |
09:48 |
mike_c |
you're going to have to use more words :) I don't follow your concern. |
09:50 |
thestringpuller |
i don't know if the conglemorate of coinbr users have the inventory of stock necessary to lend. |
09:57 |
mike_c |
yes, but coinbr would now be offering interest on passive stock holdings. so perhaps it would pick up new types of customers. |

he never availed himself of it, and that is exactly enough for constructive tacit agreement, just as good as if he swore to the whole thing. |

for that matter, the guy didn't protest at any point while rg was still running the thing, nor did he stand up to take over once rg fucked it up. |

the difference between rights and freedoms being essentially the difference between pearl necklaces and dog collars. |
15:59 |
mircea_popescu |
thestringpuller not bad. |
16:00 |
mircea_popescu |
in any case : a freedom is something the people have, and the state can't take away. the rights are constructions that the state gives, and so the state can take away. |
16:00 |
mircea_popescu |
trading a freedom for a right is always a bad deal. |
16:01 |
mircea_popescu |
and it's what generally happens whenever a state claims to be "protecting rights". it's not protecting anything, it's stealing freedom and issuing in its place token "rights". which, much like its paper currency, are fiat worthlessness. |

do good volume? butterfly knives seem ideal means to go from fiat -> steam -> butterfly knife -> rmt -> bitcoin |
17:01 |
cazalla |
then flip it to someone who wants the knife for bitcoin, making a small btc profit |
17:02 |
austeritysucks |
eh its okay, hard to get people to reject paypal and go with btc |
17:02 |
austeritysucks |
paypal is horrible for digital goods though so it's a natural fit, just hard to get the community to adopt it |
17:02 |
cazalla |
yeah, get scammers offering to buy weapons using paypal all the time |
17:03 |
cazalla |
bitcoin is such a good fit for this |
17:03 |
austeritysucks |
im working on a btc/csgokey exchange |
17:03 |
austeritysucks |
since keys are used as the fixed currency to trade |
17:04 |
cazalla |
by cheaters and smurfs perhaps |
17:04 |
austeritysucks |
hm? |
17:04 |
austeritysucks |
its just that keys are used in the trade window, so they're the best "currency" to be used in trading higher value items |
17:04 |
cazalla |
ah soz, i was thinking cd keys not key keys |
17:04 |
austeritysucks |
to avoid 15% steamtax |
17:05 |
cazalla |
i think maybe you will see more of bitcoin in that as time goes on |
17:05 |
austeritysucks |
yea so my idea was instead of recreating the steam community market for bitcoin, just narrowing down to the keys would be simple to implement |
17:06 |
austeritysucks |
so people could buy keys for below store price in BTC and safely cash out their inventory to real cash by selling items for keys and selling keys on exchange |
17:07 |
cazalla |
dunno why uptake is so slow by gamers, i'd have killed for something like this back in everquest |
17:09 |
austeritysucks |
yea a charge-back free payment system is natural, but you see the typical excuses from people who refuse to adapt |
17:10 |
austeritysucks |
unfortunately credit cards all have chargeback, and until people can acquire bitcoins with creditcards at point of sale to remove the buyer from the "confusion" of the payment mechanism |
17:10 |
austeritysucks |
then there is this learning curve that nobody wants to climb |
17:11 |
cazalla |
give it time, it'll come i think |
17:11 |
austeritysucks |
there needs to be a reverse-bitpay :P |
17:11 |
austeritysucks |
but because of how credit cards work its really impossible to do it |
17:11 |
austeritysucks |
which is exactly how the monopolists want it |
17:13 |
cazalla |
i'm sure there are some kids who during bored summer holidays will figure out how to get bitcoin and buy/sell habbo items and shit like that |
17:13 |
cazalla |
so credit card issue isn't really a big one or steam monopoly etc |
17:14 |
austeritysucks |
no its the visa/mastercard monopoly |
17:14 |
austeritysucks |
a btc exchange for csgo keys is definitely doable |
17:14 |
austeritysucks |
but so many people will avoid using it because they can't acquire btc without bank transfer etc |
17:14 |
cazalla |
i don't follow, how does that bother me if i already have bitcoin and i want to buy/sell butterfly knives? |

pretty easy to purchase small amount of btc now austeritysucks |
17:15 |
austeritysucks |
cazalla, the majority of people prefer paypal over bitcoin in the community unfortuantely, so the big issue is getting people to adopt bitcoin, i was suggesting that an easy way to promote adoption is to get people to be removed from the btc payment mechanism and have a userfirendl front end that is like using CC, but behind the scenes iti s buying BTC, transferring BTC (and maybe even |
17:15 |
austeritysucks |
BTC->fiat again for the seller) |
17:15 |
punkman |
yeah Circle works in a lot of countries |
17:16 |
austeritysucks |
cazalla, not with the way most people make such payments (cc) |
17:16 |
austeritysucks |
the minute there is any place that allows for simple cc buy of btc you will have lots of stolen cc's using the service to get btc |
17:16 |
punkman |
Circle is that place |
17:17 |
cazalla |
but that is not the buyer's problem |
17:17 |
cazalla |
i don't really give two shits if circle gets carded to death, i can buy with my own cc in the meantime |
17:18 |

but for now i want to get the steam bot C# code working and then the front-end listings/btc purchase php stuff |
17:21 |
austeritysucks |
because i think if at least the key:btc exchange works with 1 steam bot then it will be easy to expand nad once expanded people will adopt BTC for the purpose of being able to cahs out to real money so drama-free |
17:21 |
cazalla |
maybe think a little further down the road and think of people wanting to cash out items to bitcoin instead of cash |
17:22 |
cazalla |
because that's is where that market will move anyway |
17:22 |
austeritysucks |
but i try my best to encourage people, set them up a hotwallet, shoot them $1 in btc or something ,and get their lips wet |

17:22 |
