I suspect that at launch BitUSD will be "cheap" because the expected increase in BTSX price will cause most believers in BitUSD to want to be Leveraged BTSX...  however... once the price jumps many will probably want to buy BitUSD for the expected correction.   

Early on I expect BitUSD to be rather volatile around the USD price.... First below, then Above... etc... lots of money to be made playing the volatility until the bots take over.

I want to help kick start the market. My understanding of the system is limited, but I am willing to buy 500,000 btsx worth of bitUSD at slightly higher than highest bid up to 98 cents.

My arbitrage bot will start long BitUSD just because it is easier for me to reason about.


You have a bot already for BTSX/USD? I guess there's been a lot of opportunity to test it.

not yet but it's not very complicated, you're just trading relative to a feed

I will buy at 1% above the highest bid up to 0.95 USD worth. Spreads lower than that I will leave to the robots.

I think I have enough BTSX that the perception of a stable peg helps me more than having max leverage.

Since the current market price of a BTSX share is $0.01 and a bitUSD is pegged to USD minus discount for risk I'd pay about 75 - 90 BTSX for a bitUSD when it first IPOs.  Half life to parity as the days mount without serious incident.

I want to know how much more than what price.
I will buy at price 1:1, but maybe only 10$
after I can use these bitUSD to buy a toast, I will buy more.

Sorry, Toast is not for sale... I call dibs.

The purpose of this thread is to gauge interest in buying BitUSD when the market first turns on.
