Unit193 | Tornados hit several places around where I am now. | 07:03 |
canthus13 | never blindly run apt-get autoremove. | 13:50 |
dzho | never blindly run any of the things | 14:39 |
thafreak | bitcoin hit new high of $620 just now... | 15:20 |
dzho | volatility really just means no one has any idea what it's worth | 15:21 |
dzho | drastic changes in fundamentals can underpin drastic changes in price/exchange rate | 15:22 |
thafreak | it hasn't been really volatile...just keeps going up | 15:40 |
thafreak | we were discussing how it was about to hit $500 just this past friday at lunch | 15:40 |
dzho | no, it has been hella volatile | 15:40 |
thafreak | a few months ago it was way up and way down | 15:41 |
thafreak | latelty, it's just going up | 15:41 |
dzho | yes, and currencies don't do that, usually | 15:41 |
thafreak | the last few weeks | 15:41 |
thafreak | which is why i'm cashing in a little here and there, like 0.01 at a time | 15:41 |
thafreak | converting it to USD, but leaving the funds in mtgox, so when (hopefully) it crashes, I can buy back much cheaper | 15:42 |
dzho | the housing bubble took years to pop | 15:42 |
dzho | and there was an identifiable asset, there (usually) | 15:43 |
thafreak | well, this is like the housing market on pcp+meth+steroids+crack+a few pounds of coke | 15:43 |
thafreak | and redbull | 15:43 |
dzho | not counting the whole derivatives thing, in which there was no "there" there | 15:43 |
thafreak | so, if this market's time is like dog years compared to normal markets, how long before it bursts? | 15:44 |
thafreak | People were talking about $1000/btc by sometime next year...but at this rate, it could hit that in a week or two | 15:44 |
thafreak | before Christmas | 15:45 |
dzho | timing the burst is the real problem with bubbles | 21:30 |
dzho | if you have a mercenary mind, that is | 21:30 |
dzho | or, rather, if you're a bear, you'll get hit by the burst, and you want to get the hell out of the way. | 21:30 |
thafreak | what'd i say the high was? :) | 21:32 |
thafreak | it just hit $750 a few minutes ago | 21:32 |
thafreak | after the people in this congressional hearing kept saying that virtual currencies aren't necessarily illegal, as long as you don't use them for things like money laundering | 21:33 |
thafreak | boom, jumped almost $100 | 21:33 |
dzho | oh, so good thing no one uses it for *that* then | 21:35 |
dzho | buttcoiners apparently struggle with the conditional | 21:35 |
thafreak | the guy testifying now says the problem with the internet, is that people are becoming more anonymous on the internet | 21:36 |
dzho | heh | 21:37 |
dzho | welcome to the late 20th century, dude | 21:38 |
dzho | who is this schmoe? | 21:38 |
thafreak | some guy involved with a child exploitation group | 21:40 |
thafreak | well, a group you know, against exploitation | 21:40 |
thafreak | his closing argument was basically, we shouldn't allow a completely anonymous internet | 21:40 |
dzho | because that's how the world works: you just ban everything that is scary, dangerous, or you don't understand. | 21:41 |
dzho | I mean, look at how well that worked out for drugs & alcohol! | 21:41 |
dzho | what could possibly go wrong | 21:41 |
thafreak | so...i just put 2 disks in an optical drive and was wondering why it was making really bad sounds | 21:56 |
dzho | heh | 22:28 |
dzho | thafreak: you mean, you put them in the retractable cup holder? | 22:28 |
