Wondering what you can do to help bitshares up to the 1.0 launch?
Toast has written a market maker bot for BTC/BitUSD on bter.com that Riverhead is now running (possibly others)
https://bter.com/trade/btc_bitusdVolume is only 10 BTC so far, but notice the spread is around 5%. If you check out NuBits you can see that their spread is more or less the same:
https://bter.com/trade/nbt_btcThis is most likely because the "trusted" custodians have lost shitloads of money by getting BTC dumped on them in the last crash, so they have widened their spread in an attempt to make money so they'll stop being a fractional reserve. This is our moment to steal their market and surpass them as _the_ 1 USD token. All we have to do is to keep our spread lower, and then pump the volume! BTC isn't crashing any more so market making at a small spread will be profitable!
If you want to help BitUSD get adoption then get on bter now and start trading!!! Lets push the volume to at least 100 BTC as soon as possible!
