Wed Mar 05 00:11:18 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> and did you stay there or emigrate?
Wed Mar 05 00:11:05 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> it's pretty interesting
Wed Mar 05 00:10:43 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> mircea_popescu, are you one of the richest Romanians by valuation (net worth) or were you around peak BTC price?
Wed Mar 05 00:10:17 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> I'm an American but have some background from Eastern Europe. I always wondered about the animosity between some of those countries - and the friendship between the others.
Wed Mar 05 00:09:53 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> :)
Wed Mar 05 00:09:12 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> mirceau, as a Romanian do you hate Hungarians?
Wed Mar 05 00:08:55 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> just saw romance-language like words that I didn't understand on your blog. (I do speak some French, Italian, Spanish so knew it wasn't those)
Wed Mar 05 00:08:18 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> I didn't realize you're Romanian either. I thought you were Brazilian :) (I don't speak either portuguese or Romanian)
Wed Mar 05 00:06:48 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> so, thanks for saving openbsd, mircea_popescu.
Wed Mar 05 00:05:43 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> No, very different.
Wed Mar 05 00:05:20 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> well, not "valuation" just what I thought of this channel. By the way this is called 'saliency bias'.
Wed Mar 05 00:04:59 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> yes, my valuation was informed by lurking in or being in other similar channels on IRC
Wed Mar 05 00:04:24 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> I guess basically I wasn't taking these projects as "seriously" as other parts of the startup ecosystem. But perhaps it's true that "silicon valley has a lot to learn from bitcoin"
Wed Mar 05 00:03:46 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> I haven't finished reading it, no.
Wed Mar 05 00:03:18 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> It's totally different from the ecosystem I knew before. Also, the fact that you post logs and do a lot via IRC. That surprised me a great deal.
Wed Mar 05 00:03:03 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> yes, I agree with you. I was just surprised to learn this!
Wed Mar 05 00:02:51 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> mircea_popescu, sorry, I don't know the details. I just see that you're active on IRC and was just going by how you talk and participate. You also have a lot of time here.
Wed Mar 05 00:02:10 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> Instead he got 30K btc as an investment, valuing his thing at one point around $1B. This is just totally different from what I was expecting.
Wed Mar 05 00:01:39 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> For example I thought mirceau completely bootstrapped his thing, had no investors of any kind, since he doesn't deal with them the way startups I've seen do.
Wed Mar 05 00:01:18 UTC 2014 <ninjashogun> benkay` I am making the time, because it is important. I'm also surprised by some of what I have learned about bitcoin-assets.
