How about the rules?
[]
I don't full understand these rules (haven't read the whole thread)1.I would maybe add - orders (say N=10 times) N times smaller than the market maker's order at better prices do not violate the best bid/ask condition.
2. The MM in those market place both bid and ask orders to qualify; if we want to give the reward for just a single side we have to weight the order toward the other side of the order book, or some other way. Say MM1 places just a buy order - it is given credit only for the sum of sell orders falling within the min spread (say 5% spread max)
So you propose that there are $X available to be distributed to liquidity providers for each market and I pay a fraction of them every 10minutes to those that have orders close to the "peg" if the orders have been open for more than 10 minutes ..
is that about correct?
All numbers/percent are parameters adjustable by the committee (for the bitAssets).
To qualify for the reward (calculated and paid every 7 days).
1.An account must have the best bid (or ask) for min 5% of the time.[combined for all qualified orders of his during those 7 days]
To qualify:
2.A sell order should be no more than 6% above the peg; a buy order should be no more than 1% from the peg price.
3. The order should be the best bid or ask. (1)
4.The order should be for min of 150 bitUSD [it can be bigger but if the order is for bigger amount, credit is given for max of 150 biUSD] (2)
Every 7 day the script is run and the funds are divided between accounts having placed qualified MM orders:
- proportional to the time the orders were on the order book and met all other criteria above.
- for the full 150 bitUSD and/or following rule (2)
(1)Orders (say N=10 times) N times smaller than the market maker's order at better prices do not violate the best bid/ask condition.
(2.)The MM in regular stock market place both bid and ask orders to qualify; if we want to give the reward for just a single side we have to weight the order toward the other side of the order book, or some other way. Say MM1 places just a buy order - it is given credit only for the sum of sell orders falling within the max spread (5% spread max in the example above)
Nasdaq is incentivizing the display of orders for (a) 500 shares at the best bid and 500 shares at the best offer, 30% of the time, and (b) 2500 shares at no wider than 2% of the best bid and 2500 shares at no wider than 2% of the best offer, 90% of the time. I don't think we need to specify a minimum number of shares or what % of the time they need to satisfy the above conditions, but perhaps we could simply make the reward proportional to the length of time MMs have orders on the books, the size of the orders, and the distance from the price feed. And maybe we should require that orders be on the book for a minimum period of time, as some have already suggested.
