blockchain_list_assets

Thanks xeroc, I just found your "Free" asset:

Code: [Select]
ID    SYMBOL NAME                    DESCRIPTION                                     ISSUER                          ISSUED    SUPPLY                     
===========================================================================================================================================================
27    FREE   Free                    Free as in beer                                 xeroc                           100.00 %  100,000,000,000,000. FREE

So as it says they are 100% issued, that means that they dont come into existance by the buy & short mechanism?

What are you going to do with those FREE units ?

Sorry for all the questions today...

Do user-created assets get removed after a while if there is no market interest? What if someone creates an asset called BitSpam ?

User-issued assets are not BitAssets. Users can "make" BitAssets, but BitAssets without significant market depth do not trade.

Thanks for the response, but what kind of things/concepts do users issue as assets? Is there a list somewhere of user-issued assets vs BitAssets ?

Password performs the same purpose as the password on your bit coin wallet, it encrypts the private keys on your disk.   Private keys are generated from random data by Open SSL and secure.

Your password strength only becomes an issue if someone hacks your computer and wants to brute force your wallet password to get your private keys.   This is very different from a weak brain wallet where anyone can attempt to brute force your keys without even having to have hacked your computer.

Thanks for clearing this up - thats what I was hoping for. But then the wiki should be clarified that its not just your passphrase that you need to backup, but your wallet file as well.

i think you have to keep it as safe as how u keep your Nxt passphrase. cos basically thats the key to your money :)

Thats what I suspected.

Dont most people agree that in terms of security:

generated private key + passphrase > passphrase only

In the wiki it says that you have to create a 40+ character password, and save that to a USB stick / print it out.

http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/Bitshares-x-how-to

The password is therefore the private seed itself, and not just a way to secure a private key file.

Hasnt 5 years of Bitcoin shown us that people cant be trusted to created brain wallets ?

Another suggestion: how about adding a % symbol before the APR.

Im looking at the current screenshots - havent compiled the gui yet.

I compiled it in a 14.04 virtualbox. the client seems to work, but I'm at a complete loss for how to get the qt_wallet to work.

never thought I'd consider going back to windows before...

Try doing this first:
Quote
make web_wallet

which requires node.js to be installed. After that I think you will be able to get the qt_wallet by configuring cmake with:
Code: [Select]
cmake -DINCLUDE_QT_WALLET=ON .
make

Let me know how it goes - im off to sleep.

Ok I will do some giving up too:

I just discovered that to compile qt_wallet, I need to compile web_wallet, which means that I need node.js installed and my box needs to run basically as a full web server.

I was hoping that qt_wallet would be light-weight without mountains of dependencies.

I didnt lose my settings when I upgraded my system, at least I havent noticed anything yet.

People do it all the time - you'll be fine.

I officially give up until static linux binaries are released.

unless of course somebody in the know can help me out...

I just now updated to 14.04 just to compile this. Im pretty sure that will be the hassle-free option in the long run.

Also you might find that the linux binaries dont run on 12.04...

I have successfully built the command line client, but not the GUI. I tried the cmake line given in https://github.com/dacsunlimited/qt_wallet

Code: [Select]
cmake -DINCLUDE_QT_WALLET=ON .
But when compiling I get:

Code: [Select]
*** No rule to make target `programs/qt_wallet/htdocs/blank.html', needed by `programs/qt_wallet/qrc_htdocs.cpp'

Does anyone have a rough step by step guide how to compile it in ubuntu (14.04)?

I have almost compiled it on Ubuntu 14.04. Have a look at the BUILD_UBUNTU.md file.

Ok Im compiling the client now (first time in ages) - but if we can create new assets, wont that pollute the blockchain and the gui ?

I always thought that the original plan of having BitGold, BitUSD and BitBTC as the set of assets in the first chain was the most elegant plan, as they represent the three generations of money.

Are we able to create to create new asset types on the fly now? I though there were a fixed set of them.
