Ok, so with regards to BTCI (Bitcoin Instant), a realistic goal is to take a snapshot of the Bitcoin blockchain prior to the 1st Aug deadline (where it may fork into 2 or 3+ blockchains). We have performed snapshots against bitcoin and protoshares in the past for Bitshares, so this isn't an insane task to complete in 10 days.

It was proposed that the genesis.json file could be modified to include the sharedrop of the 'BTCI/BTC4' UIA against external BTC holders (mandatory witness upgrade).

Users mentioned concerns regarding the peak and trough phases of a HERTZ token, specifically that at the peak there would be overwhelming selling/settling pressure (less buy pressure) and that during the trough there would be overwhelming buying pressure (why sell when it's going up?).

To combat these moments of market imbalance, we could potentially utilize BSIP's 19/20 (MPA/UIA dividends) to incentivize the purchase of HERTZ at the peak and the sale of HERTZ during the trough.

What do you think? Dividends for providing market making?

My original post was in reference to a new graphene chain's initial base asset distribution where as Stan's idea is to take a snapshot of an external blockchain as the basis of an UIA's distribution within the BTS network. Both ideas have a common issue that the documentation regarding external blockchain snapshot & distribution mechanisms are lacking, this can however change as we have a functioning worker proposal mechanism with a large reserve fund pool & offers of bounties being placed on Stan's idea.

Would anyone be up for the task? Or do you have input on the ideas in general?

Next task, that I think I should look at, is to look at price feeds.

Are there any assets that needs extra witnesses running price feeds?
As a non-block producing witness so far it doesn't make any sense for me to start publishing price feeds for anything, if I've understood this correct.
I might start to publish some feeds, just for the sake of it, but I need to set up a good price-feed script for that.

Anyhow, if anyone thinks I should post any specific price feeds, just give me a shout out here or on the Whaleshares Discord or Team Gridcoin Slack channels as I'm always in either of them.

Perhaps HERO, ALTCAP.XDR and HERTZ (in the future)? There are MPAs which accept price feeds from non-wittness/committee users, however you may need to request permission to do so.

Hey,

Is there any documentation on how to take a snapshot of a bitcoin based blockchain as the basis for an new graphene blockchain's initial supply sharedrop?

It could help altcoins migrate to graphene in the future..

Best regards,
CM.

I just closed down my full node to connect to yours, connected successfully but the command returns an error:

Am I calling this command incorrectly? :S

Code: [Select]

get_fill_order_historyis not a valid method in Bitshares CLI. If I have some today after work I will see if there is a way to get the info you are looking for.

Ah, I didn't realize - the API documentation doesn't make that clear.

What I'm wanting to do is to dump the transactions to disk to which I can then filter with map reduce to focus on filled orders.

Perhaps this is what I'm looking for?
vector<market_trade> graphene::app::database_api::get_trade_history(const string &base, const string &quote, fc::time_point_sec start, fc::time_point_sec stop, unsigned limit = 100)
Same problem..
