Volume
1 Miner = $2 bitUSD a day = $60 bitUSD a month = 54,000 BTS in volume a month
Volume
1 Miner = $2 bitUSD a day = $60 bitUSD a month = 54,000 BTS in volume a month
Ok, 2.0 is out, price goes to 1cent, let's say 3x more the current price, that would mean 1 Miner would only contribute with (54,000/3)=18,000 BTS in volume per month? So, as the price rises, miners will give less volume? Or with that price rise that would simply mean a Miner would do $2*3 = $6 bitUSD per month, that would then turn into those 54,000 BTC per month? I think I'm missing something.
So my question. Does the volume decrease proportionally to a price increase or does the reward per day increase proportionally to the price and so, maintaining that same volume per month you mentioned?
I didn't have time to think through this atm, just checked and that was the first thing that popped in my head but I know I'm certainly missing something.
Btw, thanks for providing us with a roadmap and with actual numbers, that's what this (and other projects) need and didn't provide in the past. good job +5%

As people are mining bitcoin/altcoins and that is being exchanged for BTS/bitUSD the volume in bitUSD should be constant. Thus with rising BTS price I would expect proportionally decreasing volume in terms of BTS.
Great news, +5%
This should time nicely with 2.0 being launched, as the current client may shove people away.
Once we get these updates complete we will be the most profitable multipool for miners!I guess that the whole superb profitability argument of the pool depends on the substitution that is paid from the delegate pay and not because of the superb technology. Or am I getting this wrong?
At that time we will be updating the pool to incorporate the BunkerDEX to increase the pools profitability and bringing additional features so that we no longer need to rely on the delegate pay. We also will become a wallet provider at that stage as part of our delegate exit strategyThat sounds great to me :) Sounds like entrepreneurship.
With JUST the mining activity, not factoring in other usage and more community, and votes etc., each miner contributes a total of 51,345 BTS of volume to BitShares for every 2700 BTS spent on them. This is all calculated based on our current terrible market cap. Even with an improved market cap, the numbers still show astronomical value for each miner we bring to BitShares.This is all based on the assumption that no one every pays out anything. I would buy the argument that less than 5% will cash which makes it net money inflow to Bitshares. Agreed here. And thanks for the numbers!!
1 Delegate has a 100% capacity to support 51 Miners based on these averages. 140,000 BTS bonus spend brings in 2.62 million BTS volume per month. Take away even the collateralized volume created, and you still have 873,000 BTS for every 140,000 BTS Delegate spent.

The Conclusion hinges on the question who the referral commission goes to that are generated in this whole process at some point.
I mean elmato and bitsharesblocks may end up doing that too but they don't have 7 delegates to fund development. I am convinced that such a for profit effort is best funded by investing own capital and delegate pay is put towards general infrastructure that generates revenue for shareholders.

I for one am glad they got voted in. With that said, I love the idea that all projects getting funded by bitshares create their own UIA that gives a certain % to the community. This would also be a Let's make it mutually beneficial in a clearly decentralized way. The only concern I ever have is the one I bolded...and that is not to say data is not trustworthy or working hard. It is just to say that we should always be careful about anyone having too much control at any stage to development. With DPOShub ownership (Are you part owner?) Along with minebitshares...that is a large % of the influence in the ecosystem.
This is just based on my own philosophy though.
Seriously think you guys should consider the UIA thought that helps spreads ownership to a community that helped make it happen by voting for the funds. This would also be a great thing to give some of the original community donators who put up funds to help get it started!
From this perspective, Elmato and svk could do something similar for their platforms. I personally am interested in finding a way to do this as well for beyond bitcoin in the future.
Cryptoprometheus, though, seemed at least interested in this concept of giving a large portion of tokens to the community who pays for projects to be developed when I was talking to him about DPOShub. Perhaps you could talk with him behind the scenes?
QuoteOnce we get these updates complete we will be the most profitable multipool for miners!I guess that the whole superb profitability argument of the pool depends on the substitution that is paid from the delegate pay and not because of the superb technology. Or am I getting this wrong?
A bit of both. Pool profits are relative to a number of factors, including the size of the mining pool. The bigger the better. Which is why you see a lot of small pools startup and die so quickly.. because miners can find better payouts at other pools that are bigger and or charge less fees etc. Most pools payout in straight BTC/LTC with little cost. Paying out in bitAssets however is not without added cost in comparison.QuoteAt that time we will be updating the pool to incorporate the BunkerDEX to increase the pools profitability and bringing additional features so that we no longer need to rely on the delegate pay.

THEN THE LEGETIMATE QUESTION IS: If bitshares-mining in the end benefits the one operating this wallet provider, why should all the costs in developing this be paid by all bitshares holders through delegate pay?
The benefits go to all the miners who refer through that wallet provider and the wallet provider is using its profits to make up the bonus payouts instead of the delegate pay. This project started out of personal sacrifice to support the growth of BitShares. I took it over so that it didn't die and then I did what I do and created a plan to make it something sustainable and profitable instead of a money loser, which is all it is now. I have already detailed in my previous response the various issues with utilizing BitShares for mining that make it's value proposition challenging and makes little sense to anyone attempting to create a competitive and sustainable mining pool. Therefore at this stage, the mining pool has to be viewed as a public service that is supported by the community. It exists only to grow the community and benefit everyone, except the operator at this point.QuoteWith JUST the mining activity, not factoring in other usage and more community, and votes etc., each miner contributes a total of 51,345 BTS of volume to BitShares for every 2700 BTS spent on them.

I thought I had included it as part of the mix, but in order to make the pool competitive and profitable with bonus pay that makes it the most profitable pool, I have to squeeze profitability out of anywhere that it can be had except for the the network fee. So the pool has to use it's refer bonuses as part of how it generates profitability for the entire pool, while providing bonuses to each miner that do the referring.
Lets compare apples to apples regarding elmato and bitsharesblocks then since you want to compare them to what we are doing:
elmato - How much has their one delegate provided them that is only today beginning to show us a wallet? - Over 1 million BTS
bitsharesblocks - Dispite generating profits from every trade, they provided a much needed channel as an on/off ramp for BTS. How much did that one delegate provide them since being elected? - Over 1.2 million BTS
They had several months of delegate pay to produce results several months later.
We have several delegates now, and producing results next month.
I like to get clarification about something in the logic being used here. If we choose to, I could very well just say "hey, look at all the BTS volume etc we are pumping into BitShares through this. Look at the liquidity we are providing to ALL the BitAssets that are going to help BTS grow... this increases our market cap and improves everything for all shareholders.. put more delegate money into this and we keep going and do more of it. We are hired by the blockchain!" ... It seems only because I have designed an exit strategy to not rely on the delegate forever, you have concluded we should not get it to begin with. It suggests that if we choose not to step up and find a way off the Delegate pay, your conclusion would be to support this because it does in fact benefit all shareholders in a very direct and clear way. Only because I found a path from loss to gain and to save BitShares the cost of dilution, we should somehow suddenly take a losing pool and start pour more of our own money into it be denied any access to delegate funds that, as I already stated, do nothing but benefit BitShares. This is how it comes across. The assumption that my own money hasn't and isn't going into the pools dev and operations is also false.
By the same reasoning.. bitsharesblocks and elmato should have never received the delegate pay that they did to use your example.. is this correct?
Is this your overall outlook regarding 'all' 100% delegates?
Just out of curiosity do you know how many votes were you waiting for to put you over the edge?

They had several months of delegate pay to produce results several months later.I wouldn't worry if you only had the 7 delegates until next month! But you know how long it takes to vote delegates in AND OUT... Would you step up and ask shareholders to vote out your delegate after that month? If that is an argument you should make that promise explicit.

I decide to hold off on it.. they maybe moving to POS so it would be a huge waste of resources at this stage. Also they are rather buggy at present. I also been getting feedback from some who have been mining it that the profitability on it is not good either. So for our miners it may not be good.
I totally get the interest. It's why I been considering it. The technical reality of it though is not so attractive.

Here are some of the major updates that will be completed:
[/size]
- A shiny new updated design

They will move to POS after 12-18 months
I had no issues with mining and in general I see no complains from their community. Difficulty is rising (8.0T)so the hash rate (over 400 GH/s) in a short period of time (big demand)
About profitability that's not our business, they clearly want to mine this "coin" (clearly they are speculating about the increased future price).
There is clearly a growing/increasing demand to mine ETH (just look hashrate increase https://www.etherchain.org/ )
I would definitely love to mine ETH on a pool that reward's bitASSET's
It's a big opportunity now since the ether pools are only 2 ( popular) and because of the dangerous hash concentration on them many would flow to our pool for security reasons also
And don't forget that for now there are many solo miners that will be forced the next months (weeks?) to choose a mining pool. It's our greatest opportunity to have our doors open!
And don't forget that we want ethereum lovers to have the bitshares experience in practice. We would convince many of them that bitshares is a good investment only because we gave them the opportunity to use our platform!
Now it is still profitable to do it... In 6 months from now of course not (lost half period & "first" mover advantage)...
Thanks Jonathan for your answer (avoiding to quote it to save some space).
My overall take on delegates is: In my opinion elmato and bitsharesblocks should not receive their delegate pay anymore since there is now the option to make the development of a wallet a profitable business. At the time they were voted in though there was no referral program. Apart form that itis of strategic importance that core developers (svk, not elmato) / cryptonomex stakeholders hold substantial amounts of bitshares to align interests, that is why I wouldnt vote out svk or other core devs (in the end they also make a private profit with cryptonomex....).
So, this isn't about active or non-active delegates you been on a rampage about. We are at least two months out from the launch of 2.0, what if it takes even a bit longer than that? You are making decisions on positions in the 101 with something that isn't even here. People are working NOW... bills and costs are involved NOW.. not after 2.0 comes. This is flawed reasoning.
At this time anybody is voted in today.. there is STILL no referral program either. If we follow this reasoning of operating today based on what may or may not come into existence months from now, well then we might as well just close up shop because if we follow that reasoning to the very end.. we should have nothing but 3% delegates in the 101 TODAY regardless of what function a 100% delegate brings to the network. Sorry devs and all others working for the blockchain, you're fired until 2.0.

Say we take this reasoning path and decide you are right.
Kill the pool today, shut it down. Stop all dev, money is all gone.
All delegates are taken offline so you can vote in someone else.
This is essentially what you are arguing for isn't it?
At this stage, I have stated this is a public service. We have no reason to continue to lose money and invest hours everyday other than a desire to keep it going as a benefit to BitShares.
You are arguing that with 2.0 coming, and the opportunities it may or may not afford to the project THEN, we should pull the plug NOW.
Let's follow this reasoning and do just that. Ok.. we are gone. Please give us detailed numbers on how the removal of this project has improved BitShares more than when and what it is providing. This will be the ultimate deciding factor in whatever this arguement you are making really is all about. We have already demonstrated that the amount as it stands now is barely enough, yet provides returns in multiples. So weather its 1-2-7 delegates makes no difference. Everything else is just dancing around details.
Please provide detailed numbers that demonstrate this position to be superior in order to help voters make transparent and rational decisions in their voting. If you are right, then we need to reverse course right now.
