wow ... gonna read that article today!
+ Thanks for calling it an experiment .. some people haven't realized that yet
// edit:
- I like how you openly explain that the system is still young and 'buggy' and an experiment.
- very objective posting and nice to see you made some profit from it.

https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=8396.new#new- what i do not like is the way you describe the markets beeing 'halted' ... as you might know the markets are decentralized and can in general not be 'halted' by a single entity.. However, there currently is a requirement of 5M BTSX on both sides, the ASK and the BID for the market to 'run'. The devs, having access to a larger development stake can remove their volume which in this case was enought to 'stop' the market. If there were enough other people having open orders so that the requirement is fulfilled... not even the devs will be able to 'stop' the market.
just my 2 btsx
