Seems like a good option to invest in for diversification so Bitshares having BitGld is great. I think we need to support it and built it up a bit. Its easy to test with small bids, accessed from the wallet in the Market tab.
Currently the gold price listed elsewhere is around 38.5k
eg http://goldprice.org/and this is a little different from the current price feed - around 54k
- is it in the nature of the peg to be set naturally higher than the "real price"
Just getting to grips with it, so I have a few questions:
(1) Can we see which delegates are maintaining the gold price feed, and if they are setting prices accurately? Knowing the Price Feed sources, and making this public would be helpful.
(2) With any forthcoming adjustment to BitsharesX -> Bitshares and any other proposed changes, will BitAssets remain connected and "valid", or for some bitassets is this some form of testnet?
(3) Units. These are USD per kg - I assume - can this be added to the chart?
