This is an attempt of getting everyone in the loop and also a source of information for new people also so they know what's happening and don't get lost. An easy way to keep up with the world of BitShares. A weekly update with the hottest topics and news. Bear in mind I might not be able to do this every week so I would appreciate if every week in case I don't post it by Friday, could do this during the weekend and follow the format(quick resume on top and a list of most important links). I was really tired of not having a thread like this around. Enjoy.
This shouldn't be a thread for discussion imo... just for someone to post the updates so next week, if you're interested, PM me and do it. I might not be able to do this every week. Let's keep this clean and easy for everyone to find what they need.
Week: 25/01/2016 - 31/01/2016Discussion regarding the fees. Should they be lower to attract more users and increase liquidity? Or do low fees affect the businesses that rely on them for the referral program?
How to provide liquidity and achieve healthier markets? How to use the fees collected from the fee pool? It seems there is consensus (although it needs to be approved by the committee for confirmation first) that the assets should be sold on the market. Questions remain at which price to sell them. 2% above the peg? 10%? One single wall or multiple smaller walls with less premium? What to do next with the BTS earned from those sells?
BitShares Asset exchange has reached a daily volume record. It is estimated to be around $50k to $75k but there is only once picture showing $25k for now.
We also have a new worker proposal organized by
@abit and
@jakub which aims to be the very first proposal done by community members, other than CNX. It's an historical moment for BitShares as it starts to grow independent.
The first Prediction Markets start to appear. Good initiative from
@sports-owner and
@morpheus MUSE shareholders think there should be better communication from the PeerTracks team. Cob decides to answer their questions.
