from B2 and starbonds ... especially DYEN ... not to brag, but saw him coming a long time ago. got in on that one at 8 cents a share. - call me Ishmael Apr 12, 12:49 9
- Which means you lost 2/3 of your value in him today though -- nm - ty97 Apr 12, 12:52 6
  - It is all about image, ty. -- nm - Spawn Apr 12, 12:52 5
    - well, that ... but i also held the stock long *and* short so as to not lose any of the money i had built up in him ... - call me Ishmael Apr 12, 13:04 4
      - so, here's the thing, you made nothing today, i made 20,000. Not a lot, i agree. But the day of the big adjust? we both make the same profit. -- (edited) - Andie Apr 12, 13:07
      - heh. I finally gave in and renamed my T.Stamp port. -- nm - Spawn Apr 12, 13:07
      - You also didn't gain any money today either. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:07

  - we haven't had a reading poll in a while, good point. -- nm - ty97 Apr 12, 12:52
- I think they just pull it from the bond unless there's a different source that's legitimate. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 12:41 5
  - If HSX uses a different source, the moviestock delist is changed, but the starbonds are still detached. -- nm - Roger More Apr 12, 12:42 4
    - how do they decide when/if they'll use a different source? What are the sources they deem legitimate to change the moviestock delist price? -- nm - Divaerys Targaryen the Unburnt Apr 12, 12:53 2
      - When you get down to that level, it's at D.Mac's whim. BOM is one source that has been used. -- nm - Roger More Apr 12, 12:55 1
