Well complaining that DPOS-PTS doesn't honor the social consensus when it is an attempt to upgrade (replace) PTS is pretty dumb IMO. If it did, it wouldn't be serving its stated purpose, which would mean it would be ignored by default.

DPOS-PTS with AGS as a user asset would be fine.

good start ... though we still should have at least 2 more sources for a price for OIL ..

Is there any real time oil feeds for Brent or WTI? I am involved with a distributed exchange called bitshares and we could really use the data to make oil derivatives happen. Thanks!

Robert:

Sorry to say, but no real time feeds yet.

Can anyone tell if this is the spot/cash price, or a 1 day future, or something else?

They have a free feed.

How do I activate data feeds on my account?
To activate data feeds:

1.      Log into the trading platform and select My Account

2.      Select Data Feeds

3.      Select the relevant data feed then click Add Data Feeds

If you are activating the NYSE or AMEX exchange feed, you will need to complete the exchange agreement form via the Data Feeds section.

Data feeds on CFD accounts

Adding data feeds allows you to see additional price feeds and volume data for shares. There is a monthly cost for adding a data feed, but we rebate the cost if you place a minimum number of trades per month on that particular exchange.

The Data Feeds section in My Account lists each available exchange, along with the cost of access per month. The Activity column shows the number of trades required to receive a rebate on the cost.


Please note: any new exchange feed you activate will be charged to your account immediately for the current calendar month, and you’ll receive the rebate at the end of the month (if applicable).

If you plan to take a break from trading in an oncoming month we recommend that you deactivate your data feeds before the end of the current month to avoid being charged.

The levels of access available are:

·           No fee: In some cases, we are able to provide free data feeds from alternative exchanges. There is no cost for this access, but it may be delayed by 15 minutes.

·           Level 1: This will enable a live price feed but it won’t provide volume data for all stocks (such as small-cap stocks)

·           Level 2: This will provide a live price, along with volume data from the exchange where applicable. Level 2 access is required to view volume data on our charts, or the orderbook on PureDMA and L2 Dealer.

Data feeds on spread betting accounts

All markets are already enabled, with the exception of Australian and Canadian shares (which can be enabled in the Data Feeds section in My Account).

Perhaps delegates with servers located in the US had best move them elsewhere.

you can redeem your BTS in the BTS client using the private keys that hold BTS
you can redeem your PLAY in the PLAY client (once released) with the private keys that have held BTS at the time of the snapshot

I emailed Bter and they said they can't export user wallets/private keys because they use the same coin wallets for all accounts.  Meaning I can't import my BTS into my client with the PLAY share and I have to have my BTS in my client in order to take advantage of all the coming snapshots.   Atleast that's what I understanding. Likewise, I don't feel safe keeping funds on an exchange. Sorry if I'm aggrivating anyone.

Nice find Robrigo.

I disagree with the idea though. You have to give the market what the market wants. And that's full blown access to everything. You just have to figure out a way to make sure he artist isn't screwed over in the process.

What bandcamp is doing is giving you access to just that one artist's stuff for a price. You are paying for access sure, but not to the world's music library. The market isn't asking for that at all.

This is why we will be offering ACCESS to everything. If you really want the files while you are offline then yeah, you can pay the artist for that, sure.

As far as the die hard fans go. The coin/token is where it's at. Those people will be buying those up to access all the VIP perks.

Anyway that's the model we are following so far. After watching a boatload of Gerd Leonhard talks I can safely say PeerTracks is pretty confident we have a winning recipe.

This is all without even going into the curation benefits that stem from the existence of the coin/token too!
