Yes,   Thanks for the awesome write up and article on your experience.  Cryptocurrency needs more of this.  And as someone else noted, we need some youtube video demonstrations/tutorials of working the bitshares wallet and asset trading.

Nice article fumanchu8088.  Its good you almost doubled your money in a week.

Hopefully they gave you something (if anything but the experience) for writing that article on bitcoinist.net.

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. +5%
- very objective posting and nice to see you made some profit from it.
- you might be interested in reading this thread 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

I DID FORGET! I think I tried to block the negative experience out of my psyche.

I'll have to mention it when I get around to doing my next article that hopefully is NOT titled, "How I lost all my money holding BitUSD"!

A comment on the Bitcoinist site was deleted?

I know the admin was wiping some spam from the site earlier but to my knowledge they don't police actual posts. If it happens again please let me know and I will bring it up with the editor.

What did you say in the comment?
