so bad I have set the log lever to "error"
there is totally no log except the output to the console

I ran into some logging anomalies myself and ended up with no logs at all. I forgot how I resolved that.

the code is free to use, if you know css/html you could probably create your own wallet version tailored to your needs

In general yes, but in practice it's considerably more complex than that. It requires substantial knowledge with javascript, ReactJS, Node etc. HTML and CSS are also essential but knowledge of those two are not enough to achieve what @hellobitshares described.

Welcome to the BitShares ecosystem!

Those are some of good ideas sir, particularly the idea of coupling UIAs with a simple wallet. Having it be as easy as tweaking a config file to setup that universal wallet is also an awesome concept.

I don't recall the details off the top of my head, but a simple vs trade view was added fairly recently to the UI, and it has been well received.

I don't know how easy it would be to create what we call a "light wallet" to highlight or focus on a specific asset (or assetS) using a config file, but it's a very interesting idea I hope @svk will comment on.

Thanks for sharing, and once again - welcome aboard.

PS - It occurs to me that with UIAs and your mentioning of how quickly you find the rabbit hole can get deep, that is especially true of UIAs. Thus to keep your idea effective I think you have to split USERS of the UIAs to which this simple wallet is targeting away from CREATORS of those tokens. To actually create the tokens requires deeper knowledge and understanding than would fit well with the user wallet.

Sorry you're experiencing these difficulties @alt.

In the future if you have such an (urgent) issue please use Telegram to reach witnesses more effectively and timely, as that is real-time communications.

It's great to see another user of Wackou's BTS tools. Nice stats on your server, and good job on your witness proposal as well. I will encourage @xeroc to vote for you.

I also agree with you about the lack of dedication on the part of some witnesses.

It just makes me so mad that that market cap is less than Ardor. Which doesn't even EXIST! It's a token with a promise and ZERO users and no advantage over bitshares, which is well established and doing >$100k in volume over a decentralized exchange.

The only advantage Ardor might have is the secure messaging system. Which BTS could easily do. Echo will cover this right?

You can send secure messages through bitshares, just write your message in the transaction memo and send a micro transaction.

@svk, this seems like a fairly easy thing to implement, to send a msg this way to any account, hard code the transaction fee to the minimum set by committee (just display the cost to user).

Easy to do, useful, not so much? How often are messages passed like JonnyBitcoin described?

The output of node does not indicate 2 blocks generated. A bug in code brought on by volume? Seems highly unlikely.

What makes you so sure the issue is with us? Logs log fine, just published feeds, memory fine, ~30 network connections, normal from what I have observed for quite a while now.

I disagree with this idea.

The way I see it this amounts to subsidizing poor judgment. Sure, it "collectivizes" the risk but how does that help BitShares?

Now if you add some type of premium payment to this idea it may have some value, but IMO the value it brings doesn't justify the effort required to implement it.

so who's formulating the idea and approaching blockpay.ch (via email)?

so... anyone?

Why not you fav? Your idea, take it and run with it. Just think, if you put the same effort into writing ken an email to look at key posts in this thread you believe are convincing, the task you're requesting others to do would already be done.


nope, not my idea, and I waste more than enough time on bts/projects :)

It wasn't your idea to contact BitShares Munich via email? Who's was it then? Me thinks it was you  ;)

How about other options like:

Current fee allocation:               Proposed new fee allocation:
20% -- network                            20% -- network
80% -- referral                              70% -- referral
                                                      10% -- Dividend to ALL users (exchanges - question mark)

If the value of BTS goes up, we should be able to scale back on the witness/worker pay thus boosting the reserve pool.

A business should not pay any dividends until it is profitable. We should first make whatever is necessary to make the chart in http://cryptofresh.com/reserve go upwards

Thank you for that link @paliboy, I was hoping such a thing existed.

Despite the huge stockpile of resources the reserve pool has, the graph says it all, that ultimately the path we're on isn't sustainable. We need to make that graph go up (or ideally stay flat, with increases going back to shareholders as dividends).

The question in my mind now is how the hell did the reserve pool get so big in the first place? There is no ramp from 0 going up? Did it start high b/c of some initial injection? Where did that come from and who provided it?

Paying dividends and reducing supply is essentially the same (from economical pov) ..

I agree, but NOT from a marketing standpoint. Burning fees is deflationary and helps everyone, but dividends go directly in my account. This principle is why people don't blame the gubermnt for inflation, they blame businesses for increasing the cost of products.

This is very important!

Please focus on what exists today or what is in active development such as Stealth (private transactions).
