13:23 awt_akris Sadly gave up trying to figure out how to initialize the c types required to use jonsykkel's serpent, but I have been able to get pygcrypt (a python libgcrypt wrapper) working.
13:23 billymg http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-07-12#1028137 << they really do seem to be trying to defend the 31k level, every time it creeps above it gets dumped back down

13:46 signpost it's pulling from some volume-weighted thing iirc
13:47 signpost can't recall the exact mechanism
13:48 signpost but I will whisper "31K" with rapture in my voice if you want, bae

13:48 signpost lol, same
13:49 signpost I am not immune to the imaginary number.
13:49 signpost might just be that coingecko's free API doesn't update that often.
13:50 * asciilifeform not 'immune' but operates in 'how many zeros' mode when looking at exch rate
13:50 awt_akris who knows wtf yahoo finance uses - stops working entirely for days every month
13:50 asciilifeform #of 0's not changed in a while
