General Discussion / Re: Microsoft to Offer Ethereum-Based Services on Azure
« on: October 29, 2015, 01:33:19 am »
Ethereum is not a threat, it is a hackers paradise. Because it is Turing complete it cannot be proven to be secure, so you're stuck dealing with probabilities and complex risk statistics.
And sad to say, the malware artists are the offense, the offers has the advantage in the cybersecurity arms race, and Ethereum empowers the offense. They do plan to do formal verification, and they do plan to have a good virtual machine with isolation, but ultimately when you hold an Ethereum token it's because you trust the developers.
And it's the same for us. We trust the developers so we hold Bitshares. In the future when there are decideable blockchains and formal proofs = programs then we will only have to trust the mathematics and not even the developers would have to be trusted. Microsoft is known for producing bloated millions of lines of code software with bugs, backdoors, etc, so it's not a threat to Bitshares or competition for Bitshares.
It's actually good for the industry and many of us hold Ether along with Bitshares so it's good for the Ether price, but it's not much more than that. Bitshares hopefully can form a strategic partnership with a Russian bank, and with popular video game companies in Japan.

« on: October 28, 2015, 11:20:16 pm »Thank youI think I made a mistake cause it says that the price is 1.0 BTS per METAFEE but below the red number is 1.503. I want to cancel the order but don't know how.
I see that I placed an order, how can I cancel it? In 'Trade' or in the dashboard/orders? There are no orders in 'Orders'.
You should be able to cancel your order on the 'Exchange' tab in the METAFEES/BTS market, down the bottom of the page it should be shown with a 'Cancel' button.
They are around $5 each which is pretty expensive seemingly but do you know how much the MCXnow feeshares went to? They started at around $10 each if I recall, and ended up at $100 each just months later.

See the spreadsheet?

With Metaexchange it all depends on marketing. If they can do marketing then they'll do well. Their numbers look good so far so with more liquidity and more assets it is likely they'll do at least as well as they do right now. Not having to make an account can appeal to a lot of people also.
To market Metaexchange they will have to show numbers. Show how the "investors" can win. It ultimately will depend on their Bitcointalk launch but I do think 200 BTC is nothing and will quickly be chewed through so buy them while you can.
Realsolid raised $100,000 and people kept buying from each other even after he sold out. The Metaexchange team is only raising $60,000 but that is why theirs is around $5 a fee share.

WOW - we already sold 10.5 BTC in METAFEES or roughly 5% of our goal of 200 BTC so thank you for your support and trusting monsterer and me.
we will be available tomorrow on the mumble server for a question round on 8pm CET. We will try to record it and make it available later.
So if you are interested and have questions for us come tomorrow.
I'd like to buy some but still having the issues with importing my wallet. It says there is no balance and they haven't yet upgraded the web wallet to use the bloom filter mechanism yet have they?
This isn't the first time something like this has happened. MCXnow had used a similar business model too so your team can learn a lot from their success.
Check it out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=264182.0
It's important to give out frequent rewards. Daily earnings work best.
The price for MCXnow fee shares was $10 each. The Bitcointalk thread can also help you to structure your Bitcointalk announcement in a similar fashion so that you can get maximum traction. Realsolid was brilliant at marketing his initiative.
luckybit thanks for the advice and feedback!
we are aware of the problems thats the reason we set the days to 60. After our integration is done, the METAFEE sale will be possible with BTC, NXT and ETH as well.
I like the ANN of MCXnow, but i hope we can do better - i assume they are not in business anymore?

General Discussion / Re: As bts2.0 is not stable, btc38 say they cannot deposit and withdrawal BTS
« on: October 28, 2015, 08:42:19 pm »
I think they don't have the proper reserve so they are trying to come up with a technical reason to use like Mt GOX using the "transaction malleability" excuse.
The community needs to step up and help BTC38.

General Discussion / Re: As bts2.0 is not stable, btc38 say they cannot deposit and withdrawal BTS
« on: October 28, 2015, 08:41:46 pm »Hi,
when I ask btc38 and yunbi why they donot open deposit and withdrawal BTS, they say bts2.0 wallet is not stable and has some unpredictable bugs. But I see poloniex have open BTS earlier. I donot know what problem about BTS2.0 wallet. Is it unstable as btc38 said? or they have other reason? who knows?
Thanks
AFAIK Historically btc38 use Windows, maybe Windows version of full node is not stable?
There are problems with the documentation which isn't at all sufficient even for me. I'm on Windows and had to ask around to find the documentation for the Cli wallet and when I found it then documentation was either outdated or just didn't work exactly as it said.
We need a Youtube video with step by step configuration so people can see what to do. Visual documentation would help a lot.
Also there should be a step by step process for exchanges to integrate or to adopt BTS2. It should be clear.

The suggested apps work very well and could be used for Bitshares mobile ads.
Where is the Bitshares Android/IOS app?
Money should be set aside for an aggressive ad campaign or two.

General Discussion / Re: IOTA + Bitshares
« on: October 28, 2015, 11:45:34 am »TradeBTC is backed right? The issue is the gateway services or anything backing something else represents a risk, and requires some sort of legal structures with compliance so people can know for certain they'll get real tokens.Hello,
I'm David from the IOTA project (www.iotatoken.com). In short: iota is a lightweight, blockless micro-transactions token aimed specifically at Internet-of-Things (IoT). My co-founder, Come-from-Beyond, posed a few questions here a couple weeks back regarding Bitshares 2.0 and micro-transactions in this thread: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,18784.0.html
It seems that Bitshares is not aiming for micro-transactions and instead focusing on its strengths. One of IOTA's goals is to find overlap and collaborate with the serious blockchain projects as we see no reason to 'compete', instead we rather compliment the blockchain projects.
I am opening this thread to start discussion about how IOTA and Bitshares can find some overlapping use-cases which will benefit both projects.
Come From Beyond is a prolific Bitcointalk personality. I've interacted with the person before on several occasions. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=46556
My thoughts are that microtransactions may be possible through payment channels or something like off-chain transactions, but due to the necessarily higher than average transaction fees and the design of Bitshares to be a decentralized exchange it might not be as good at doing on-chain microtransactions.
This is a disappointment to me because I think microtransactions are critical to getting more people and things into the economy, but I also realize that it's not really about what I want. It's about what is best for Bitshares in the here and now.
Bitshares at this time needs to focus on being a good exchange more than it needs to focus on handling microtransactions or being a good digital currency service. Centralized exchanges keep getting hacked or arbitrarily shut down. Microtransactions could still be possible even with an optimized Bitshares, but it's a question of how.
Well...seraph just had a great proposal to ensure that many of the Crypto-based tokens that are exchanged on bts would also be backed by the actual tokens (like peercoin, quark, litecoin...etc).
People didn't seem interested in it...so I'm not sure how that is going to happen until we are all willing to sacrifice a little to make sure amazing things are built for bts' ecosystem :/
Generally, I don't see why we need the tokens to be backed by anything real because IOUs can trade millions of times virtually before someone decides to withdraw. The withdraw should trade their virtual IOU for actual tokens. I think this is the most dangerous and risky part of the whole process because what if the person runs off with the IOUs and doesn't provide the Peercoins?
So I would say we'd be better off approaching big regulated companies like Coinbase so they can offer CoinbaseBTC so people can trade 1:1 bitBTC for CoinbaseBTC. It's not an advantage to trade real BTC around.
