shinohai: In "muh smart contracts" https://twitter.com/harvest_finance/status/1320650530377633792
shinohai: PLEASE Sir, can you return my magic beans?
asciilifeform: shinohai: what exactly was this ?
shinohai: Some mETHereum defi contract that got wasted overnite. (Defi latest jenkem this crowd is huffing)
asciilifeform: shinohai: lulzy, iirc this aint the 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd time where idjits burned by 'smart' shitcoins
snsabot: Logged on 2020-10-22 12:04:47 asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2020-10-22#1023452 << asciilifeform does not, and never at any point has, considered 'smart contracts' to be a subject worthy of any attention whatsoever , outside of the strictly ~criminological~ attention merited by an artifact of fraud.
shinohai: Yup I thought it lulzy for exact reasons mentioned in thread (Though it is nothing but rehash of 2016 "DAO hack" with slightly different gold-colored spray paint on the turd)
asciilifeform: shinohai: etherism illustrates what usg would ~like~ bitcoin to look like. e.g. where, say, 'your' funds are only yours unless a 'council of N' multisig-votes to eat it; and, say, monetary mass is uncapped and can only be estimated because emission is controlled by rules even author does not 100% grasp ; etc
asciilifeform: and, of course, the cherry on the cake, where 'right people' will insert speshulcase into client to steal 'back' whatever tx they decide 'oughtn't have happened'.
BingoBoingo: Anyone else got that suspicion that Bitcoin is adding a zero by the end of March?
thimbronion: BingoBoingo: they're having a hard time crashing it below 13000.
superkuh: It's over 9000!
asciilifeform has doubt re 'add a zero' -- that is, outside of the 'sandwich' scenario
snsabot: (alethepedia) 2020-10-11 asciilifeform: thimbronion: the altcoinists -- sure . but i was speaking of the fact that the exch rate prolly aint growing another 0 -- or rather, not w/out the dollar price of archaetypical sandwich also growing a zero.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: what've you been up to ?
trinque: asciilifeform: the thing about the sandwich is that it drives the other.
trinque: any amount of e.g. company treasury flight into bitcoin will send the real purchasing power of bitcoin way up.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform Been working on continuing to make the live video thing increasingly professional, got a "how to book" project increasingly close to launch, expanding local social circle
BingoBoingo started out trying to do straight news, but gardening talk started to take over
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform We do have to remember that November 3 through at least December 14th one of those destructive USG.State color revolutions will be firing in US
