What is your timeline?  SETL already has 100k transactions per second and are moving quickly to start processing orders on the Canadian exchanges.

I feel Anonymity was the one thing that was holding people in crypto together.  Now this is going to split the community as we have already seen from Erlich Bachman.  Divide and conquer.

You say this is like a Trojan Horse to the banks, but you are allotting the majority of your funds to "strategic partners"... Investors don't give a shit about anything but making money.  Building a Trojan Horse to take down banks is on the opposite end of their ideological spectrum.

I get the "Rah Rah, we are doing this for bitshares!" thing, but it seems like a facade so that we go along with the idea.  I'm all for making money and my bank account hopes this is tremendously successful, but until there is a real plan for converting people to freedom and privacy this just looks like another version of SETL or Ripple.
Regulations are a fact.

The best shot is to make a system mainstream that is compatible with all regulations and which allows to easily switch to a similar system (bitshares) with privacy if needed. If users are familiar with identabit they get easily familiar with bitshares and can easily acquires it.

BTW, privacy is nothing illigal. It is just that regulations require non privacy for SOME types of transaction (financial transactions, especially above a certain amount etc.). By privacy I mean here that no one (also no government agency etc) can see what/how much you transact.

Just having skimmed over it real quick. Will read it in more depth. But I am exited :)

Any snaphots dates known yet (for the various sharedrop targets)?

Is it possible to sign up users without licensing something from Cryptonomex (just by upgrading one's account)?

Would it be possible for some other development company to come along and offer the same sign up for licensing services cnx provides for Bitshares?
sure and of course

General Discussion / Re: Potential flaw in referral fee system
« on: August 11, 2015, 09:07:15 am »
Given one name for each account, I speculate that referrers if they are value add enough, will use their website or whatever clout they have to force even existing users to generate a new account.  Why?  Because they can.  And because they want to profit from every user that uses their platform, website, exchange, bitassets, whatever. 
Wouldn't this only happen if there would be a one time referral fee? As far as I understand the standard is that the referrer profit from a user's LIFE TIME fees. That would of course be different if the user signs up for a life time membership but that would be pretty costly.

lol zero fucks given!

But a proper legal analysis (kind of a contradiction in itself) would still be interesting!

Just sent some USD with it - It actually works  :)

Very nicely done.
For me it surely qualifies as a solid summer announcement.

Just wonder how the 2.0 launch is going to affect your back-end code?

Wondered the same. How much work is necessary to make it work with 2.0?

Marc,

first of all, great to have you here!  +5%

Looking at your website banxcapital.com, there are lots of different services related to crypto. Is there one things that ties them all together? Does offering such a variety of services make each of the offerings better / more efficient?
Specialization always makes sense if there is not zero competition... But maybe there is a reason why this doesn't apply here?

Morning deludo . Watch this video if you have time, that will tell you more about the vision :) >> https://vimeo.com/133425780

Thanks

Mark
I would be interested in your answer :)
But I don't have the patience to wait until the video gets to the relevant point and I can't forward it!
And how does this http://banxplatinum.com/ play into it? What is the purpose of videos you can't forward and a text that would require hours to read in order to pay hundreds of dollars where you in the end still only know that you get "information"? Maybe I am wrong on the latter since I didn't read the text...

You're not addressing the incentives of those who develop new full node tech, which is what really matters in the long run in my opinion. They will likely be incentivized to keep their competetive advantages proprietary and launch in competition with incumbents rather than collaborate. As far as I can tell, the result of the design is that ROI on node R&D is maximized, meaning TPS optimization, which is what I'd prefer from a common computation infrastructure.

Also, ignoring that, lets not forget that centralization of block production at worst only exposes people to what is essentially very complex and ridiculously expensive phishing attacks.

They're a theoretical problem, but easily solved since economic dapps will run their own secondary consensus algorithms in the virtual machine to validate in a way that is tailored to their own security preferences (DPOS is probably gonna be a first choice in many situations). With that in mind Ethereum block validation is ultimately the transaction processing and anti-spam layer, not explicitly a trust layer. For that function casper seems to be the best algorithm invented yet.
Could you explain what you mean by "full node tech" and how the pishing attacks would work you mentioned?

Do you prefer to put this on meetup.com or keep it small? How have you handled that in that past?
Hi delulo  :)

We haven't used meetup.com before, but it would be great to start using it. Count me in for tomorrow as well. I would like to propose meeting place for tomorrow: BrewDog Camden, 113 Bayham Street, Camden Town London, NW1 0AG,  https://www.brewdog.com/bars/uk/camden
I am flexible if anybody else has different proposal.

Aloha

Perfect! Lets do  BrewDog Camden is no one is for something else. 3 PM! See you all. Anyone with a meetup account should feel free to put this on meetup and ! I don't have a meetup account.

I am all in for Oktoberfest :)

London meetup: Let's do Saturday, 15.00.  (doodle said that would be good http://doodle.com/qawxy6vas7vgyips5xmnu2vm/admin#table)

What location would you suggest?

I think it's perfectly fair for you to highlight this on the forum. CCEDK is doing great work and I hope we can all support it with more business as BitShares 2.0 comes out.

a possible if your door has IoT properties or if there is a person that checks it manually

b and c are possible with multisig but maybe there is direct solution in graphene, i don' know.
