cazalla: maybe the 20Gb represents 5% of people who verified and the remaining 1Gb represents the other 95% of people and is just username + email
cazalla: and i would guess gox count their 1m account as those registered, not just funded/active or verified
mircea_popescu: even if they are hard to find
gecko_x2: you don't know what's in the database
gecko_x2: just like with every other issue
cazalla: i'd like to know if they actually deleted your data after 90 days when closing your account as they said they would
gecko_x2: ofcourse. leave it to the great mircea popescu to just scorn and spit on anyone that talks about it
dexX7: so did anyone confirm this guy really has the data?
mircea_popescu: irc is the place. where else ?
B007: "I will verify that I am in possesion of this data before you make purchase. Interested buyers can contact me and I will send you all information contained in file about you personally. No one contact asking for parts of the file for free/me to send file before payment."
gecko_x2: well if my passport and home address is in there
dexX7: "contact me for samples, so i know who the bad guys are"
dexX7: "send btc, you surely get the data"
mircea_popescu: haha so wait, the dude figures someone cares enough about mtgox to pay 100 btc for their tx history ?
mircea_popescu: dexX7 what are yu on about, that was the discussion, some nanashi dude on forum/etc
mircea_popescu: otherwise who'd buy a db of some txs
mircea_popescu: i thought the claim was as to a bunch of passport scans
dexX7: no, the claim is they are in posession of a 20 gb database and the guy further ensured that they are not looking forward to leak verification docs but they may have that
dexX7: and i doubt those are base64 encoded and stored there
mircea_popescu: yes, the claim is that this is.
gecko_x2: and he just banned me from ##mtgox-chat for pointing out that he should report the suse to interpol or something, not help him
mircea_popescu: dja know what i did there ?
gecko_x2: in flogging the database
gecko_x2: i mean this user at the end of that pastebin
dexX7: yea i saw that, but the db is not available, right??
gecko_x2: i just find it weird that there is no talk
ozbot: Lost in translation: the tangled tale of Mt. Gox's missing millions - e-commerce, Mt. Gox, security,
gecko_x2: "The site had 1 million customers as of December 2013, according to a document posted on the Web that was purported to be a leaked business plan."
gecko_x2: well MP.. they did have 1 million users
gecko_x2: as u can see in the pastebin log
gecko_x2: about him trying to help this nanashi character that was trying to flog the database for personal gain
gecko_x2: well u get the point
gecko_x2: one would think that millions of users would be interested if their passports leak

mike_c: if 16 zeros is required, they ought to get 17 zeros by happenstance 1/16 times or so
artifexd: mike_c, 17 zeros does appear common now. 289404, 289364, 289358... the list goes on
mike_c: no i liked it. i just wonder what train of thought lead there
mircea_popescu: mike_c lol. but i mean... it's not THAT out there is it ?
artifexd: mike_c there was a block with 17 zeros 9 months ago
mike_c: do these metaphors just come to you? "If this story was motivated by a quest for truth I am an alien shooting lasers from my ears"
mircea_popescu: so what's the problem with 500 ph

mike_c: so 10 minutes before trading opens the remaining 25% of the ipo is suddenly eaten up in one trade. please.

mircea_popescu: "Ponder this: the economic goodwill attributable to two paper routes in Buffalo - or a single Sees candy store - considerably exceeds the proceeds we received from this massive collection of tangible assets that not too many years ago, under different competitive conditions, was able to employ over 1,000 people."
mircea_popescu: Gross proceeds from our sale of this equipment came to $163,122. Allowing for necessary pre- and post-sale costs, our net was less than zero. Relatively modern looms that we bought for $5,000 apiece in 1981 found no takers at $50. We finally sold them for scrap at $26 each, a sum less than removal costs.
mircea_popescu: The equipment sold (including some disposed of in the few months prior to the auction) took up about 750,000 square feet of factory space in New Bedford and was eminently usable. It originally cost us about $13 million, including $2 million spent in 1980-84, and had a current book value of $866,000 (after accelerated depreciation). Though no sane management would have made the investment, the equipment could hav
mircea_popescu: There is an investment postscript in our textile saga. Some investors weight book value heavily in their stock-buying decisions (as I, in my early years, did myself). And some economists and academicians believe replacement values are of considerable importance in calculating an appropriate price level for the stock market as a whole. Those of both persuasions would have received an education at the auction we held

mircea_popescu: anyway, let it be put in the permanent record that translation efforts are the best way to practically resolve differences of opinion.
mircea_popescu: it was a genuine question, just, not in the obvious context.
chetty_: Yeah published pictures of the poor guy, with his address etc.
mircea_popescu: but because she wanted the attention.
mircea_popescu: which is exactly what she did : made some untrue statements not because she believed them,
mircea_popescu: well if that's your definition, the statement is uncontroversial. i suspect even the anon whore herself would say she's "a professional"

mircea_popescu: and the most recent one is since when ?

mircea_popescu: CheckDavid listen, did you follow the twitter link ?
